Abstract:
Abstract Many of the Great Lakes Areas of Concern include harbours and navigable channels that experience disturbance of bed sediment due to the passage of large ships. Sediment resuspension due to ship passage may impact efforts to restore habitat and remediate contaminated bed sediment through in situ treatment. To examine the impacts of ship passage, water column profiles of temperature, pH, turbidity and dissolved oxygen, as well as suspended sediment samples, were taken at varying distances behind ships entering an industrial slip area of the Hamilton Harbour Area of Concern during the summer of 1995. Weekly water column profiles and suspended sediment samples also were collected at three sites in the slip area and a harbour control site to characterize ambient water quality. Ship passage significantly increased turbidity above ambient levels due to sediment resuspension, although the increase was less in the deeper areas of the slip. Levels of turbidity and suspended sediment concentration associated with ship passage exceeded that recommended for a moderate level of fish habitat protection. In association with the increased turbidity, levels of dissolved oxygen declined and often were less than 5 and 6.5 mg L-1, the Canadian Water Quality Guideline for later life stage warm and cold water fisheries, respectively. Based on the sample data and in situ flume experiments, the estimated depth of bed erosion due to a ship passage ranged from 1 to 8 mm. The impacts of sediment disturbance due to a ship passage should be considered when selecting and designing appropriate sites and technologies for remediation.

Abstract:
Abstract Hamilton Harbour is an enclosed body of water situated at the western end of Lake Ontario and containing about 2.8 x 108 m3 of water, polluted by municipal and industrial effluents. It is connected to Lake Ontario by a ship canal, which facilitates a substantial exchange of water between the two water bodies. Exchange of harbour and lake water through the canal reduces the theoretical hydraulic residence time of the harbour and contributes to improvement of the harbour water quality through dilution and oxygenation. Without it, the Hamilton Harbour water quality situation would be more critical. The beneficial effect of dilution by Lake Ontario far exceeds contamination of western Lake Ontario by Hamilton Harbour water.

Abstract:
Abstract Large-volume water samples were collected from the ship canal connecting Hamilton Harbour and Lake Ontario while detailed simultaneous measurements of water speed and direction were made. The 10-day sampling period in July 1989 and a 14-day sampling period in March 1991 were considered representative of typical stratified summer and unstratified winter flow regimes. The water samples were analysed for PCBs and PAHs, which are known major organic contaminants in Hamilton Harbour. Supporting physicochemical measurements were also made. The water movement data were combined with the contaminant concentrations and the uniform channel dimensions to calculate annual loadings of 2.8 kg/ year PCBs and 37.5 kg/ year PAHs from Hamilton Harbour to Lake Ontario. These estimates were compared to other published estimates of loadings of these compounds from Hamilton Harbour and also from the atmosphere and the Niagara River. It was concluded that Hamilton Harbour is not a significant source of these compounds in comparison to the atmosphere and the Niagara River. The PAH export estimate was found to be small when compared to in situ sediment burdens of PAHs and also present day discharges to the harbour.

Abstract:
Abstract The concentrations and relative abundances of sixteen priority pollutant polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were measured in suspended particulates and benthic sediments from Hamilton Harbour. The PAH concentrations in suspended particulates, often as high as PAH concentrations in benthic sediments, ranged between 4.41 and 106.02 µg/g. The highest PAH concentrations were found in areas close to the industrial sites. Selected samples of suspended particulates from western part of Lake Ontario were also analyzed for PAHs to learn about the transport of PAHs from the harbour to Lake Ontario via the Burlington Ship Canal. The results reveal export of PAHs along with the other contaminants from Hamilton Harbour to Lake Ontario. In addition to PAHs, n-alkanes were determined in all samples, as they are readily determined from the extracts and they are useful in deciphering the sources of suspended particulates, hence particle-associated PAHs.

Abstract:
The exchange flow through the Burlington Ship Canal connecting Hamilton Harbour with Lake Ontario is investigated, using a two-layer internal hydraulics model. The summer exchange features an upper layer of polluted Harbour Water flowing from the harbour into the lake, whereas a lower layer of fresh Lake Ontario Water flowing from the lake into the harbour. We predict this exchange, taking into account the effects of both friction and barotropic forcing of multiple frequencies. Predictions of density interface and volume flux compare well with experimental and field data. The interface varies non-linearly with distance along the canal, with and without barotropic forcing. Our results indicate that the exchange flow is highly frictional. The barotropic forcing comprises oscillation modes of different frequency; these individual forcing modes cause the interface and layer velocities to fluctuate significantly in time, but their influence on the time average flows through the canal is minimal.

Abstract:
According to most countries’ norms, and to find the effect of the bridge collision the equivalent static method was designed for bridge-ship collision, ignoring the dynamic effects of shocks. It is sharply different from actual situation. So based on the theory of Winkler foundation, shearing strain theory of Timoshenko and potential energy variation functional principle of Hamilton, the simulation models of bridge piers was built considering the pile–soil interaction. Lateral transient vibration equation of bridge piers was concluded. Based on the theory of integral transform, the differential equation of the collision system and the boundary conditions were transformed with Laplace transformation; the analytical solution of the stress wave in frequency domain was concluded. And then the inversion of solution in frequency domain was carried out using Matlab based on the Crump inverse transformation. Finally the dynamic response law of displacement, normal stress and the shear stress of bridge piers were obtained.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTThis paper explores the life and activities of Hugh Hamilton Lindsay (1802–81), an East India Company official who worked at Canton from 1820. Lindsay's is a key voice in the challenge to the Company's policies in China on the cusp of the abolition of its monopoly, and to British policy on the eve of the first ‘Opium War’ with the empire of the Qing. Lindsay first made his mark on Sino-British relations by leading a covert East India Company foray north along the Chinese coast in 1832 in the ship Lord Amherst, and in widely disseminating his bullish conclusions and policy recommendations in publications and reports that followed. He is known as a bellicose pamphleteer, but a more complex picture emerges if we follow Lindsay and his commercial activities as the British fanned out from Canton into the Chinese ‘treaty ports’ opened after 1842, and across Britain's wider developing empire in Asia. His field of operations developed to include the British colony of Labuan and led him into a heated public conflict with Sir James Brooke in the early 1850s. Lindsay was never happy with the status quo: he lobbied and hectored, and in business he innovated, and pushed hard on the frontiers of British power and influence. Commercial opportunity drove him, but so did a specific vision of the ‘English character’, and notions of pride and national and personal honour.

Abstract:In 1940, the British Admiralty detained a British passenger ship sailing from Lisbon to New York at the port of Hamilton, Bermuda, for a contraband search. Customs authorities seized four crates containing hundreds of artworks by leading European artists. Suspected of being sent to New York for sale by the French art dealer Martin Fabiani for the economic benefit of German-occupied France, the captured collection—originally the property of art dealer Ambroise Vollard—was confiscated as a prize of war and sent to Ottawa, Canada, for wartime safekeeping. The National Gallery of Canada stored the collection from 1940 to 1949, when British courts instructed the collection’s Canadian custodian to release it to its rightful owners, Fabiani and the Vollard heirs. This essay reframes the wartime journey of the Vollard-Fabiani collection and challenges the long-held notion that it belongs to the narrative of Nazi-looted cultural property. This essay also highlights an important role played by the National Gallery of Canada during World War II.

Abstract:
This paper describes the systems engineering approach that was used by National Steel and Shipbuilding Company (NASSCO) in performing tradeoff analyses associated with the design for conversion of SL-7 containerships to T-AKR Fast Logistics Support Ships for the U.S. Navy. This design effort involved the development, from a baseline set of minimum performance requirements, of an initial design to maximize the ship's mission capabilities within a firm cost constraint. A series of tradeoffs among various design features was performed to arrive at the most capable, cost-effective solution. Tradeoffs had to rationally consider the competing requirements of difficult-to-quantify mission criteria—such as cargo capacity, capability to load/unload within specified times, and endurance—as well as cost. NASSCO, with consulting support from Booz, Allen & Hamilton, developed a formal systems engineering model as a consistent means for validating rational design decisions, based on the collective experience and engineering judgments of the team members. The model ensured a common focus on the multiple attributes of mission capability within the overall cost constraint. The approach was based on concepts and techniques of system requirements analysis, multi-attribute utility analysis, pairwise comparison of attributes, and analytic hierarchy modeling blended into a practical systems engineering application. The NASSCO design approach, including support provided by systems engineering, led to development of a highly capable T-AKR design. The systems engineering approach that was used has broad applicability to the design of Navy ships where cost is only one of many criteria for evaluating the attractiveness of design alternatives.

Abstract:
A biological invasion occurs when a species introduced deliberately or inadvertently by humans establishes a population far from its native home, maintains itself without human assistance, and spreads beyond the point of introduction (Richardson et al. 2000). Some definitions (e.g., President Clinton’s Executive Order 13112 of 1999) require that the spreading species have a harmful impact, but this is not a part of biologists’ definition. The rare occasions on which a species arrives on its own and spreads in a distant location—such as the African cattle egret reaching the New World—do not qualify as invasions. Although some invasions (e.g., ship rats on Mediterranean islands) occurred thousands of years ago (Ruffino and Vidal 2010), the major surge began with the European discovery and colonization of the New World, which initiated the widespread intercontinental movement of animals, plants, and humans known as the Columbian Exchange. Early explorers and colonists observed European plants in North America by the 17th century, and by the 19th century biogeographers routinely classified species as native, introduced, or of unknown origin (Chew and Hamilton 2010), but few concerned themselves with impacts of introduced species. A remarkable 1958 book for a lay audience by English ecologist Charles Elton, The Ecology of Invasions by Animals and Plants, described many invasion impacts. It is often cited as having founded the modern field of invasion biology (see Elton 2000). In fact, it was ahead of its time and had little effect. Rather, a project in the mid-1980s of the international Scientific Committee on Problems of the Environment engaged hundreds of scientists in an attempt to understand why only certain invasions led to impacts and how to minimize these (Simberloff 2010a). These efforts led to the rapid growth of a distinct science, invasion biology, and today thousands of researchers annually publish hundreds of papers on invasions. Invasions are idiosyncratic, and the routes to some impacts are so tortuous that one would never have predicted them.

Abstract:
A decline in oil-related revenues challenges Norway to focus on new types of offshore installations and their maintenance. Often, ship-mounted crane systems transfer cargo or crew onto marine structures such as floating windmills. This project analyzes the motion of a ship induced by an onboard crane in operation. It analyzes the motion of a crane mounted on a ship using The Moving Frame Method (MFM). The MFM draws upon Lie group theory and Cartan’s Moving Frames. This, together with a compact notation from geometrical physics, makes it possible to extract the equations of motion, expeditiously. This work extends a previous project that assumed many simplifications. It accounts for the masses and geometry of all components. This current approach also accounts interactive motor couples and prepares for buoyancy forces and added mass. The previous work used a symbolic manipulator, resulting in unwieldy equations. In this current phase, this research solves the equations numerically using a relatively simple numerical integration scheme. Then, the Cayley-Hamilton theorem and Rodriguez’s formula reconstructs the rotation matrix for the ship. Furthermore, this work displays the rotating ship in 3D, viewable on mobile devices. WebGL is a JavaScript API for rendering interactive 3D and 2D graphics within any compatible web browser without the use of plug-ins. This paper presents the results qualitatively as a 3D simulation. This research proves that the MFM is suitable for the analysis of “smart ships,” as the next step in this work.

Abstract:
This paper presents a new method in dynamics — The Moving Frame Method (MFM) — and applies it to analyze the roll, yaw and pitch of a ship at sea, as induced by an onboard moving crane. The MFM, founded on Lie Group Theory, Cartan’s Moving Frames and a compact notation from geometrical physics, enables this expedited extraction of the equations of motion. Next, the method deploys the power of the special Euclidean Group SE(3) and a restricted variation to be used in Hamilton’s Principle, to extract the equations of motion. The mathematical model is then simplified to get a clearer picture of the parameters that impact the motion of the crane. The equations of interest are numerically solved by using fourth order Runge-Kutta method to obtain the specific data for the motion induced by the crane. Then, The Cayley-Hamilton theorem is used to reconstruct the rotation matrix. To supplement the paper, a webpage is coded with a model of the crane and ship, to graphically visualize the motion in 3D. It is imperative to note that while there are many approaches to dynamics, the MFM presents a consistent method, from 2D to 3D, and across sub-disciplines. The simplification is what has enabled undergraduate students to undertake this project.

Abstract:
Abstract A Knuckle Boom Crane is a pedestal-mounted, slew-bearing crane with a joint in the middle of the distal arm; i.e. boom. This distal boom articulates at the ‘knuckle (i.e.: joint)’ and that allows it to fold back like a finger. This is an ideal configuration for a crane on a ship where storage space is a premium. This project researches the motion and control of a ship mounted knuckle boom crane to minimize the pendulum motion of a hanging load. To do this, the project leverages the Moving Frame Method (MFM). The MFM draws upon Lie group theory — SO(3) and SE(3) — and Cartan’s Moving Frames. This, together with a compact notation from geometrical physics, makes it possible to extract the equations of motion, expeditiously. The work reported here accounts for the masses and geometry of all components, interactive motor couples and prepares for buoyancy forces and added mass on the ship. The equations of motion are solved numerically using a 4th order Runge Kutta (RK4), while solving for the rotation matrix for the ship using the Cayley-Hamilton theorem and Rodriguez’s formula for each timestep.

Abstract:
Abstract The combined action of wind and waves has a great influence on the dynamic stability of roll motion of a trimaran ship, which may get into chaotic situation even capsizing. The lay-out of the trimaran is the main factor influencing the roll performance and its dynamic stability. In order to study the stability performance of the roll motion, firstly, the nonlinear roll motion equations under transverse wind and beam waves are established, in which the main coefficients are obtained by CFD method combined with model test. Then, the Hamilton system is used to analyze the phase portraits of the homoclinic and heteroclinic orbits under different transverse spacing. Finally, the Melnikov function is used to calculate the critical wave threshold of the asymmetric system under the combined action of wind load and wave force, and the Lyapunov exponent based on RHR algorithm was used to verify it. A series of significant conclusions are obtained by comparing the calculation models of different transverse spacing, which can provide references for the design of the trimaran ship.

The ESS was successfully demonstrated to start an LM2500 marine gas turbine with the added benefits of reduced start system configuration (fewer components), ability to control engine acceleration during the early phase of the start cycle, functional transparency to the engine start logic, and speed synchronization between the ESS electric motor and the accessory gearbox of the LM2500 engine with no impact torque. To date it has accumulated over 30 successful starts on the engine. This paper will discuss the results of the aforementioned test, along with advantages and challenges of installing such a system aboard ship.

Abstract:
Abstract Norwegian industries are constantly assessing new technologies and methods for more efficient and safer maintenance in the aqua cultural, renewable energy, and oil and gas industries. These Norwegian offshore industries share a common challenge: to install new equipment and transport personnel in a safe and controllable way between ships, farms and platforms. This paper deploys the Moving Frame Method (MFM) to analyze ship stability moderated by a dual gyroscopic inertial device. The MFM describes the dynamics of the system using modern mathematics. Lie group theory and Cartan’s moving frames are the foundation of this new approach to engineering dynamics. This, together with a restriction on the variation of the angular velocity used in Hamilton’s principle, enables an effective way of extracting the equations of motion. This project extends previous work. It accounts for the dual effect of two inertial disk devices, it accounts for the prescribed spin of the disks. It separates out the prescribed variables. This work displays the results in 3D on cell phones. It represents a prelude to testing in a wave tank.

Abstract:
Norwegian industries are constantly assessing new technologies and methods for more efficient and safer production in the aqua cultural, renewable energy, and oil and gas industries. These Norwegian offshore industries share a common challenge: to install new equipment and transport personnel in a safe and controllable way between ships, farms and platforms. This paper deploys the Moving Frame Method (MFM) to analyze the motion induced by a crane and controlled by a gyroscopic inertial device mounted on a ship. The crane is a simple two-link system that transfers produce and equipment to and from barges. An inertial flywheel — a gyroscope — is used to stabilize the barge during transfer. The MFM describes the dynamics of the system using modern mathematics. Lie group theory and Cartan’s moving frames are the foundation of this new approach to engineering dynamics. This, together with a restriction on the variation of the angular velocity used in Hamilton’s principle, enables an effective way of extracting the equations of motion. This project extends previous work. It accounts for the dual effect of both the crane and the stabilizing inertial device. Furthermore, this work allows for buoyancy and motor induced torques. Furthermore, this work displays the results in 3D on cell phones. The long-term results of this work leads to a robust 3D active compensation method for loading/unloading operations offshore. Finally, the interactivity between the crane and the stabilizing gyro anticipates the impending time of artificial intelligence when machines, equipped with on-board CPU’s and IP addresses, are empowered with learning modules to conduct their operations.

Abstract:
Reciprocating machines are widely used in many mechanical industries. Bending vibration of spinning components, such as the shaft system of a high-speed power engine (vehicles, ships, helicopters, etc.), turbine engines and generators usually requires the integration of both design and analysis. The general method to analyze vibration is the discretization method. The bending/torsion/axial vibration of these systems is often solved using the lumped parameter method, in which small diameter long shafts are neglected by concentrated masses. Well known since the Holzer’s tabulating methods, many researchers proposed both transfer matrix and extended transfer matrix methods to solve free and/or forced vibration under dampened and/or undampened vibration based on discrete methods. In many situations, however, the results from a discrete method couldn’t exactly agree with actual results. In particular, in bending vibration analysis there is no correction and precision method to calculate bending vibration of multi-stepped spin shafts because the shafts are often treated as one dimensional vibration. We should therefore develop a new precision method to analyze two-dimensional bending vibration of shaft systems. In this paper, a new precise approach is proposed to study and calculate the bending vibration of multi-step systems with N-stepped changes of their property under rotary conditions, supported by N+1 springs and dampers governed by a two-dimensional wave equation. At first, the author analyzed the source of bending vibration. When a crankshaft is excited by external forces which can be divided into vertical and horizontal forces, the shaft will deform in two planes. Then strain and stress equations of the spin shaft are established, applied to the Hamilton Principle, and a two-dimensional wave equation is established. After that, to simplify, the author deduced the calculation formula of one dimensional bending vibration — a sine exciting force acted on arbitrary concentrated masses between point No.1 and No.N+1. By using this formula, the total dynamic response of additional force can be obtained through a general procedure of superposition. And then, the influence of the coupled product of inertia is discussed and the two-dimensional dynamic response is obtained. To demonstrate the theoretic analysis, we checked the prediction using the bending vibration of a highspeed diesel engine’s crankshaft. By using a newly-designed axial/ torsion/ bending vibration testing device, we measured the bending vibration at the front free-end of the crankshaft. When the calculated results were compared with measured results, they agreed with each other. This verified that the author’s proposed new method to study bending vibration is warranted and correct.
