TL;DR: In this paper, a theoretical explanation of high-Froude-number ship wakes that are narrower than the classical Kelvin 3 9 ∘ angle was offered by Rabaud and Moisy.
Abstract: A theoretical explanation of observations of high-Froude-number ship wakes that are narrower than the classical Kelvin 3 9 ∘ angle was recently offered by Rabaud and Moisy. The explanation relies on the assumption that a ship hull does not create waves longer than its length. A validation of this theoretical model has also been given. The validation is based on the approximation of the flow created by a ship hull by means of a Gaussian distribution of pressure at the free surface. These two flow models predict a wake angle ψ m a x that decreases like 1 / F as the Froude number F increases beyond F ≈ 0.5 . A third theoretical explanation was recently proposed by the authors. This theoretical explanation assumes that the wave pattern of a ship mostly consists of dominant waves that are created by the ship bow and stern, and is mostly determined by interference effects between these dominant waves. The analysis of interference effects on the Kelvin wake of a ship predicts a wake angle ψ m a x ≈ 0.14 / F 2 for a monohull ship, or ψ m a x ≈ 0.2 b / F for a catamaran with beam/length ratio b . The ‘flow models’ underlying these three alternative theoretical explanations of narrow ship wakes are examined, and the corresponding theoretical predictions are compared to the 37 observations of ship wakes reported by Rabaud and Moisy for Froude numbers F within the wide range 0.1 F 1.7 . The wake observations are found to be consistent with the predictions given by an analysis of interference between the bow and stern waves of a monohull ship, or a catamaran with beam/length ratio b within the range 0.4 ≤ b ≤ 0.8 . Indeed, agreement is consistently strong for the 35 wake observations within the range 0.1 F 1.4 . This range of Froude numbers includes the range F 0.6 , where interference between transverse bow and stern waves is important, and corresponds to the vast majority of ships. The predictions given by the Rabaud–Moisy ‘cutoff-wavelength model’ and the ‘Gaussian pressure distribution model’ are in close agreement with two wake observations for 1.6 F 1.7 and may also be consistent with several wake observations for 0.6 F 1.4 , but are not consistent with most observations. This finding and a critical examination of the assumptions underlying the Rabaud–Moisy model and the Gaussian pressure distribution model suggest that these theoretical models may not be realistic for most ships. This conclusion is further validated by numerical computations of wave patterns for F = 1 . The computed waves are largest along a ray angle that agrees with the prediction of the bow and stern waves interference model, but is noticeably smaller than predicted by the Gaussian pressure distribution model.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the wave added resistance of a cruise ship model in regular waves in seven wave directions and found that the maximum resistance was encountered in bow quartering seas.
Abstract: Measurements on wave added resistance of a cruise ship model were carried out in regular waves in seven wave directions. The motivation for the investigation is the powering performance of ships in wave conditions. A new towing arrangement allows the ship model practically free motions in oblique seas, but makes it simultaneously possible to measure the towing resistance. The maximum resistance was encountered in bow quartering seas. The measurements show that practically all ship motion components have a clear effect on the wave added resistance. The wave elevation measured around the ship shows a clear correlation with the measured wave added resistance values.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the damping of the cantilever beam as its width is reduced, which contributes to the increase in the harvested power, and showed that the harvested energy from an array of cantilevers with a certain total width is higher than that from a single-piece harvester of similar width.
Abstract: Previous work shows that when a cantilever piezoelectric energy harvester with a given width is split into several pieces and then electrically connected in parallel, the output power increases substantially compared with when it acts in a single piece with a similar total width. It was hypothesized that this increase is due to the reduction in the damping of the width-reduced beam. As a result, the beam with the smaller width vibrates with higher amplitudes and therefore has higher energy harvesting capability. In this paper, this hypothesis is examined by measuring the damping of the cantilever beam as its width is reduced. It is shown that as the width decreases, the damping is reduced, which contributes to the increase in the harvested power. It is then shown that the harvested energy from an array of cantilever piezobeams with a certain total width is higher than that from a single-piece harvester of similar width.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined large oceangoing ships as a source of giant cloud condensation nuclei due to wake and stack emissions off the California coast, and observed particle number concentrations behind 10 ships exceeded those in “control” areas, exhibiting number concentration enhancement ratios (ERs) for minimum threshold diameters of ~2, ~10, and ~20 µm as high as 2.7, 5.5, and 7.5.
Abstract: This study examines large oceangoing ships as a source of giant cloud condensation nuclei (D_p > 2 µm) due to wake and stack emissions off the California coast. Observed particle number concentrations behind 10 ships exceeded those in “control” areas, exhibiting number concentration enhancement ratios (ERs) for minimum threshold diameters of ~2, ~10, and ~20 µm as high as 2.7, 5.5, and 7.5, respectively. ER decreases with increasing downwind distance and altitude. ER becomes better correlated with ship size variables (gross tonnage, length, and beam) as the minimum size threshold increases from 2 to 20 µm, whereas ship speed has a less distinct relationship with ER. One case study of a container ship shows that there are higher concentrations of sea-salt tracer species behind it relative to adjacent control areas. These results have implications for cloud properties and precipitation in marine boundary layers exposed to ship traffic.

TL;DR: In this article, the uncoupled roll mathematical model (1 DOF) is adopted to calculate the roll motion based on the irregular beam waves and the steady wind, and two restrained experiments with counter weights and four springs are performed under the same condition.
Abstract: Some methods for direct stability assessment under the dead ship condition were currently developed by the international maritime organization (IMO) under the Second Generation Intact Stability Criteria. Model tests and simulations are carried out to validate the numerical methods used in assessing the stability under the dead ship condition. This is done in three stages. Firstly, the uncoupled roll mathematical model (1 DOF) is adopted to calculate the roll motion based on the irregular beam waves and the steady wind. Secondly, a drift free experiment is conducted to measure the roll motion under irregular beam waves with zero speed, and then two restrained experiments with counter weights and four springs are performed under the same condition. Finally, the effects of the drift and sway motions on stability under the dead ship condition are then verified by experimental results, and the results of the numerical methods are compared to the results of the model experiments. It is concluded that more accurate numerical methods could be developed for assessing the direct stability under the dead ship condition.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report on the results from a series of full-scale trials designed to quantify the air entrainment at the stern of an underway vessel, which serves as the initial conditions of a ship's far-field bubbly wake.
Abstract: The authors report on the results from a series of full-scale trials designed to quantify the air entrainment at the stern of an underway vessel. While an extremely complex region to model air entrainment due to the confluence of the breaking transom wave, bubbles from the bow, turbulence from the hull boundary layer, and bubbles and turbulence from propellers, the region is a desirable area to characterize and understand because it serves as the initial conditions of a ship's far-field bubbly wake. Experiments were conducted in 2003 from R/V Revelle and 2004 from R/V Athena II using a custom-built conductivity probe vertical array that could be deployed at the blunt transom of a full-scale surface ship to measure the void fraction field. The system was designed to be rugged enough to withstand the full speed range of the vessels. From the raw time-series data, the entrainment of air at speeds ranging from 2.1 to 7.2 m/s is computed at various depths and beam locations. The data represent the first such in-situ measurements from a full-scale vessel and can be used to validate two-phase ship hydrodynamic computational fluid dynamics (CFD) codes and initialize far-field, bubbly wake CFD models.

TL;DR: In this article, the results of simulations of the air flow around the ODEN made using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software VECTIS are described, and the vertical displacements of the airflow at the anemometer sites and at a location of an aerosol intake are included.
Abstract: Wind speed measurements obtained from anemometers mounted on ships are prone to systematic errors caused by the distortion of the air flow around the ship's hull and superstructure. This report describes the results of simulations of the air flow around the ODEN made using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software VECTIS. The airflow distortion at anemometer sites used during the ACSE project has been quantified at a wind speed of 7 ms-1 for a wide range of wind directions: every 10 degrees from bow on to 120 degrees off the bow, and an additional run was undertaken at 150 degrees off the bow. The anemometers used in this study were located in the bows of the ship. The vertical displacements of the airflow at the anemometer sites and at a location of an aerosol intake are included. Wind speed profiles above a motion-stabilised doppler lidar were also obtained. For bow-on flows the anemometers in the bows of the ship experienced relatively small flow distortion. At these sites the flow was decelerated by about 3% of the free stream wind speed. Over the full range of relative wind directions the flow to the METEK sonic is generally accelerated with the largest wind speed biases at flows directly over the beam. The vertical displacement of the airflow increases from around 3 m for flows directly over the bow, to around 6 m for flows over the ship's beam as the lockage of the airflow by the ship becomes greater. The vertical displacement at the aerosol intake location varied from 6m for flows directly over the bow, to around 16 m for flows over the ship's beam. The ship imposes a significant obstacle to the flow and forces a strong vertical velocity in the lowest few tens of meters above the lidar.
