(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Salt pond is a meromictic system with an outlet to the sea allowing denser seawater to occupy the monimolimnion while the mixolimnion has relatively low salinity and is the site of greater mixing and microbial activity. ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)This thesis describes the role of short sea shipping within the transportation network in the European Union. It examines the existence of externalities relating to congestion, infrastructure, air pollution, noise, and ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)The use of wind power has recently emerged as a promising alternative to conventional electricity generation. However, space requirements and public pressure to place unsightly wind turbines out of visual range make it ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)A detailed experimental study was conducted targeting lubricant consumption effects on ,diesel exhaust ash levels using a model year 2002 5.9L diesel engine, high and low Sulfur commercial lubricants, and clean diesel ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)The IJ.S. Navy's new system for rescuing stranded submariners, the Submarine Rescue Diving and Recompression System (SRDRS), utilizes a tethered, remotely operated Pressurized Rescue Module (PRM) deployed and controlled ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Many comparative naval architecture analyses of surface ships have been performed, but few published comparative analyses of submarines exist. Of the several design concept papers, reports and studies that have been written ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)This thesis looks at the hydrodynamics of spherical projectiles impacting the free surface using a unique experimental WebLab facility. Experiments were performed to determine the force impact coefficients of spheres and ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)An effective physics-based model has been developed that is capable of reliably predicting the motion of a three-dimensional mine-shaped object impacting the water surface from air and subsequently dropping through the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)The dynamics of breaking waves significantly affect air-sea fluxes of heat, momentum, mass and energy across the ocean interface. Breaking waves also contribute considerable loading to offshore and coastal structures, and ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)The terrorist attacks of September 11th 2001 on New York and Washington DC shed light on the many security shortcomings that sea ports and the entire import and export process face. A primary source of these problems is ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Field studies have demonstrated that the Non-Intrusive Load monitor (NILM) can provide real-time indication of the condition of electro-mechanical systems on board naval vessels. Results from data collected from engineering ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)The thesis explores the use of the Non-intrusive Load Monitor (NILM) in Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) applications on US Navy ships as part of the Office of Naval Research Electric Ship Integration (ESI) Initiative. ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)As environmentalism has swept into political prominence, influencing the environmental policy of developed nations, the IMO- the UN dedicated legislator of the shipping industry- has been increasingly faced with challenges ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)A series of Multi-Frequency cable vibration experiments at Reynolds number 7600 were carried out at the MIT Tow Tank using the Virtual Cable Towing Apparatus (VCTA). Motions observed in a Direct Numerical Simulation of a ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)The dynamics of flapping remains a subject a great theoretical and practical interest. Propulsion and maneuvering by flapping, optimized through years of evolution, is ubiquitous in nature, yet marine pulsars inspired by ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)This thesis presents a robust method for evaluating differential geometry properties of sculptured surfaces by using a validated ordinary differential equation (ODE) system solver based on interval arithmetic. Iso-contouring ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)This thesis presents a robust method for tracing intersection curve segments between continuous rational parametric surfaces, typically rational polynomial parametric surface patches. Using a validated ordinary differential ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Under the fiscal reality of the 21st century military budget, the typically manpower intensive United States Navy has had to learn to do more with less of everything, in many cases specifically less sailors. One mission ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)In response to the grounding of the Exxon Valdez on March 24, 1989, the United States Congress enacted the Oil Pollution Act of 1990, a series of regulations requiring technical and operational changes in tank vessels ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV's) are becoming of increasing use in shallow waters for oceanographic data collection, coastal mapping, and military operations such as mine surveillance along enemy coastlines. Currently ...
