Maneuverability in Restricted Waters: State of the Art
(University of Michigan, 1976-08-01)
An overview of restricted_water maneuvering with heavy emphasis on the course stability of ships in canals is presented, starting with the underlying linear equations and proceeding to the theoretical prediction of the ...
Pressure and temperature-based adaptive observer of air charge for turbocharged diesel engines
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2004-04)
In this paper we design an adaptive air charge estimator for turbocharged diesel engines using intake manifold pressure, temperature and engine speed measurements. This adaptive observer scheme does not depend on mass air ...
A finite element analysis of beams on elastic foundation including shear and axial effects
(Elsevier, 1987)
A displacement finite element method for analyzing a beam on continuous elastic foundation is presented. A three-dimensional model which accounts for the effects of both the Filonenko-Borodich and Pasternak foundation ...
Main Principles of Modern Superstructure Design
(University of Michigan, 1983-12-01)
Translated from Norwegian by Atle Ellefsen, Edited by Harry Benford&&Please note that this is the second of a three-_part series of papers dealing with current trends in Scandinavian ship manning practices and effects on ...
A Rational Strip Theory of Ship Motions: Part I
(University of Michigan, 1969-03-01)
The exact ideal_fluid boundary-value problem is formulated for a ship forced to heave and pitch sinusoidally in otherwise calm water. This problem is then simplified by applying three restrictions: 1) the body must be ...
Extension and Application of ZARNICK: A Nonlinear Simulation Program for High Speed Planing Hulls
(University of Michigan, 1997-05-01)
A nonlinear mathematical model (Zarnick, 1978) has been extended to calculate the motions of a variable deadrise planing boat in waves, using Zamick's low aspect ratio strip theory. It is assumed that the wavelengths are ...
Fully Nonlinear Ship-Wave Computations Using a Multipole Accelerated, Desingularized Method
(University of Michigan, 1997-04-01)
Chairperson: Robert F. Beck&&The inviscid ship-Wave problem with fully nonlinear boundary conditions is solved using a multipole accelerated, Desingularized Euler-Lagrange Time_domain Approach or DELTA method. The ...
