Integrating seakeeping in the design of semi-displacement and displacement monohulls
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)
Early stage ship design and assessment continues to be a challenge for naval architects and ocean engineers. The complex and multifaceted interactions between the different components of the ship and the broad spectrum of ...
Higher order asymptotic inference in remote sensing of oceanic and planetary environments
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)
An inference method based on higher order asymptotic expansions of the bias and covariance of the Maximum Likelihood Estimate (MLE) is used to investigate the accuracy of parameter estimates obtained from remote sensing ...
Computations of fully nonlinear three-dimensional wave-body interactions
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)
Nonlinear effects in hydrodynamics of wave-body interaction problems become critically important when large-amplitude body motions and/or extreme surface waves are involved. Accurate prediction and understanding of these ...
