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 ...
Manning and automation of naval surface combatants : a functional allocation approach using axiomatic design theory
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)
The design of ships is an inherently complex process. This complexity is significantly increased when the particular ship being designed is a naval surface combatant. The ship design process is traditionally viewed as a ...
Analysis of system wide distortion in an integrated power system utilizing a high voltage DC bus and silicon carbide power devices
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)
This research investigates the distortion on the electrical distribution system for a high voltage DC Integrated Power System (IPS). The analysis was concentrated on the power supplied to a propulsion motor driven by an ...
Integrating response surface methods and uncertainty analysis into ship concept exploration
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)
A comparison of experimental and computational analyses of two dimensional foil sections
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)
Modeling for ship power system emulation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)
With the U.S. Navy's continued focus on Integrated Fight Thru Power (IFTP) there has been an ever increasing effort to ensure an electrical distribution system that maintains maximum capabilities in the event of system ...
Machinery monitoring technology design methodology for determining the information and sensors required for reduced manning of ships
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)
Cooperative tracking for persistent littoral undersea surveillance
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)
The US Navy has identified a need for an autonomous, persistent, forward deployed system to Detect, Classify, and Locate submarines. In this context, we investigate a novel method for multiple sensor platforms acting ...
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)
