The Diffraction Potential for a Slender Ship Moving Through Oblique Waves
(University of Michigan, 1975-12-01)
The diffraction problem of a fixed slender ship in incident waves is formulated. Both the conditions of zero and constant forward velocity are considered. The waves are assumed to be of the same order as the beam of the ...
Winter Navigation in the Bothnian Bay and the Iceworthiness of Merchant Vessels
(University of Michigan, 1972-09-01)
Winter navigation in the Bothnian Bay is a subject that continues to be discussed both among professionals, and in the news media. Winter navigation in the Bothnian Bay should first and foremost provide an economical mode ...
Small Craft Engineering: Resistance, Propulsion, and Sea Keeping
(University of Michigan, 1971-10-01)
This volume is reprinted from lecture notes used in a one-week course, Small Craft Engineering, presented by the Continuing Engineering Education Program of the University of Michigan, October 11 - 15, 1971.
Optimization of Bow Bulb Configurations on the Basis of Model Wave Profile Measurements
(University of Michigan, 1970-12-01)
The present approach to bulb design may be regarded as a synthesis of the experimental with the theoretical method. The basic wave patterns of the main hull and the bow bulb are obtained from measurements in the model tank. ...
Hydrodynamic Interactions Between Ships in Shallow Water
(University of Michigan, 1978-06-01)
A method is developed for predicting the forces and moments acting on a vessel due to the hydrodynamic interactions between Vessels in a passing situation. The lateral separation between the vessels is assumed large so ...
Small Craft Engineering: Structures
(University of Michigan, 1971-10-01)
This volume is reprinted from lecture notes used in a one-week course, Small Craft Engineering, presented by the Continuing Engineering Education Program of the University of Michigan, October 11 - 15, 1971.
The Computer System SPIRAL Documentation for the User and the Module Writer
(University of Michigan, 1979-06-01)
Some of the important ship design work required of a student can be done by computer tools available in our SPIRAL computer library. This memo outlines by brief abstracts what is available in that library, sketches of how ...
Calculation of Broken Ice Resistance Based on Model Testing
(University of Michigan, 1970-04-01)
