Underwater acoustic signal behavior prediction in the region of Kauai Island
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)
Behavior of underwater sound propagation over long-ranges has been studied for several decades. The purpose of this is to describe sound propagation phenomena in various ocean environments. The key to understanding and ...
Optimal control theory applied to ship maneuvering in restricted waters
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)
Ship drivers have long understood that powerful interaction forces exist when ships operate in close proximity to rigid boundaries or other vessels. Controlling the effects of these forces has been traditionally handled ...
Plastic resistance of thin-walled prismatic tubes under large twisting rotations
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)
Analytical crashworthiness methods applied to composite structures
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)
An analytical procedure for advanced propulsor design
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)
Shape optimization theory and applications in hydrodynamics
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)
The Lagrange multiplier theorem and optimal control theory are applied to a continuous shape optimization problem for reducing the wave resistance of a submerged body translating at a steady forward velocity well below a ...
Ultrasonic wave propagation in thick, layered composites containing degraded interfaces
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)
The ultrasonic wave propagation of thick, layered composites containing degraded bonds is investigated. A theoretical one-dimensional model of three attenuative viscoelastic layers containing two imperfect interfaces is ...
Design evaluation of naval combatant secondary structure under hydrostatic lateral load
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)
Propeller blade design thickness and blockage issues due to source-induced factors
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)
Integrated lifting-surface and Euler/boundary-layer theory analysis method for marine propulsors
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)
