Abstract In order to improve the performance of an evacuating system it is important to understand the processes in-volved in both the evacuating system itself as well as factors such as the motion of the ship and the wave climate close to t...
Abstract In this paper the intact stability of small container ves-sels is investigated, both in calm water and in a seaway. The research was triggered by the capsizing of the con-tainer feeder Dongedijk near Port Said in August 2000. It is...
AbstractThis paper reports seakeeping studies performed on a parametrically varied set of SWATHhull forms. The SWATH form, because of its de-linked nature of design affords many vari-ations of the underwater hull geometry without affecting o...
Abstract In this paper the analysis of the vertical motion prediction of six fast slender hulls using 2 D high speed theory with cross-flow correction is presented. Experimental data for vertical motions in head sea are compared with five ca...
ABSTRACT:Modern PLCs can be programmed in a variety of ways, from ladder logic to more traditional programming languages such as BASIC and C. Another method is State Logic, a very high-level programming language designed to program PLCs bas...
ABSTRACT This paper presents a unified approach based on utilizing multidimensional arrays in order to model the physical and logical properties of mechatronics systems. A mechatronics system model consists of two interacting submodels.A su...
Abstract: A high-precision shape detecting system of cold rolling strip is developed to meet industrial application, which mainly consists of the shape detecting roller, the collecting ring, the digital signal processing (DSP) shape signal p...
ABSTRACTThe performance of the miniaturized photocatalytic air purifier including a continuous adsorp-tion/desorption unit with a zeolite particles-loaded honeycomb rotor was investigated in the photocat-alytic purification of 1m3 air contai...
Abstract: Surface low/distortion is one of the most challenging surface deflections that have a great effect on the exterior appearance of automobiles. Most studies on surface distortion/deflection have focused on evaluation and visualizatio...
#Abstract As automobile body panels are one kind of sheetmetal part with groups of free form surfaces, the processplanning is more complicated than common sheet metalstamping to implode effectively and practically. Based onKBE, new framework...
