Abstract:

Dynamic response analysis of mechanical structures is usually performed by adopting numerical/analytical models. Finite element (FE) modeling as a numerical approach plays an important role in dynamic response analysis of complex structures. The calculated dynamic responses from FE analysis are only reliable if accurate FE models are used. There are many elements in real mechanical structures which make constructing accurate FE models difficult. For example, modeling the boundary supports of mechanical structures are usually challenging because of the uncertainties existing in their stiffness values. The stiffness values of boundary supports can be identified by using experimental natural frequencies and hence the FE model can be corrected. In this paper, the FE modeling and updating of propulsion shaft lines in a ship structure is considered by employing experimental modal parameters, i.e. natural frequencies. Natural frequencies of shaft lines are measured by performing experimental vibration testing. The corrected FE models are used and dynamic response analysis of shaft lines is conducted

Modeling of Ship Propulsion Performance

Full scale measurements of the propulsion power, ship speed, wind speed and direction, sea and air temperature, from four different loading conditions has been used to train a neural network for prediction of propulsion power. The network was able to predict the propulsion power with accuracy between 0.8-2.8%, which is about the same accuracy as for the measurements. The methods developed are i...

Power Accounting for Ship Electric Propulsion

Coarse and accurate power accounting methods for ship electric propulsion are observed and compared. For the purpose of analysis, the propulsion system has been separated into two units, namely the ship load and the motor drive. In the load model, variation of such factors like static and dynamic hull resistance and efficiency is explored while the supply characteristics, drive loading, propell...
