Abstract:
This article identifies a new Old English poetic motif, ‘The Departure of the Hero in a Ship’, and discusses the implications of its presence in Beowulf, the signed poems of Cynewulf and Andreas, a group of texts already linked by shared lexis, imagery and themes. It argues that the Beowulf-poet used this motif to frame his work, foregrounding the question of royal succession. Cynewulf and the Andreas-poet then adapted this Beowulfian motif in a knowing and allusive manner for a new purpose: to glorify the church and to condemn its enemies. Investigation of this motif provides further evidence for the intertextuality of these works.Keywords: Old English poetry; Beowulf, Cynewulf; Andreas; Anglo-Saxon literature

Abstract:
Abstract Yinka Shonibare’s Nelson’s Ship in a Bottle, installed on the Fourth Plinth of London’s Trafalgar Square from May 24, 2010, to January 30, 2012, temporarily transformed a space dominated by the 19th-century monumental sculpture of Lord Horatio Nelson, Britain’s most famous naval hero. When installed in Trafalgar Square, Shonibare’s model ship in a bottle, with its sails made of factory-printed textiles associated with West African and African-European identities, contrasted dramatically with the bronze and stone that otherwise demarcate traditional sculpture. Shonibare’s sculpture served to activate public space by way of its references to global identities and African diasporic culture. Shonibare’s Nelson’s Ship, this paper argues, inserted a black diasporic perspective into Trafalgar Square, offering a conspicuous challenge to the normative power that defines social and political space in Great Britain. The installation in Trafalgar Square was only temporary, however, and the work was later moved to the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich, where it is on permanent display. This paper provides an investigation of the deeper historical references Shonibare made to the emergence of transnational identities in the 19th century and the continued negotiation of these identities today by considering the installation of Nelson’s Ship in a Bottle in relation to both sites.

Abstract:
FcγRIIB are low-affinity receptors for IgG that contain an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif (ITIM) and inhibit immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM)-dependent cell activation. When coaggregated with ITAM-bearing receptors, FcγRIIB become tyrosyl-phosphorylated and recruit the Src homology 2 (SH2) domain-containing inositol 5′-phosphatases SHIP1 and SHIP2, which mediate inhibition. The FcγRIIB ITIM was proposed to be necessary and sufficient for recruiting SHIP1/2. We show here that a second tyrosine-containing motif in the intracytoplasmic domain of FcγRIIB is required for SHIP1/2 to be coprecipitated with the receptor. This motif functions as a docking site for the SH2 domain-containing adapters Grb2 and Grap. These adapters interact via their C-terminal SH3 domain with SHIP1/2 to form a stable receptor-phosphatase-adapter trimolecular complex. Both Grb2 and Grap are required for an optimal coprecipitation of SHIP with FcγRIIB, but one adapter is sufficient for the phosphatase to coprecipitate in a detectable manner with the receptors. In addition to facilitating the recruitment of SHIPs, the second tyrosine-based motif may confer upon FcγRIIB the properties of scaffold proteins capable of altering the composition and stability of the signaling complexes generated following receptor engagement.

Abstract:
In the immediate aftermath of George Floyd’s murder on May 25, 2020, global protests against racialized police brutality targeted statues and other public art forms symbolizing racism. Either framed as a “weird global media event” or “global iconic event,” Floyd’s murder forced a reckoning with histories of oppression and systemic racism, with a potential enduring social effect and a transnational historical significance by inviting resonance and global solidarity. This article focuses on the U.K. context and spans a decade to invite a rethinking of ideas of crisis, history, and hero through a consideration of the toppling of Edward Colston’s statue and its pushing into the Bristol Harbour on June 7, 2020, by Black Lives Matter (BLM) protesters, and Yinka Shonibare CBE’s artwork Nelson’s Ship in a Bottle (2010–2012), commissioned for the “Fourth Plinth” temporary exhibits in Trafalgar Square. Such consideration bears on this contemporary moment when we are witnessing globally connected protest actions calling for the decolonization of public material culture.

Abstract:
Because of the probable causal relationship between constitutive p210bcr/abl protein tyrosine kinase activity and manifestations of chronic-phase chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML; myeloid expansion), a key goal is to identify relevant p210 substrates in primary chronic-phase CML hematopoietic progenitor cells. We describe here the purification and mass spectrometric identification of a 155-kD tyrosine phosphorylated protein associated with src homologous and collagen gene (SHC) from p210bcr/abl-expressing hematopoietic cells as SHIP2, a recently reported, unique SH2-domain–containing protein closely related to phosphatidylinositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase SHIP. In addition to an N-terminal SH2 domain and a central catalytic region, SHIP2 (like SHIP1) possesses both potential PTB(NPXY) and SH3 domain (PXXP) binding motifs. Thus, two unique 5-ptases with striking structural homology are coexpressed in hematopoietic progenitor cells. Stimulation of human hematopoietic growth factor responsive cell lines with stem cell factor (SCF), interleukin-3 (IL-3), and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) demonstrate the rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of SHIP2 and its resulting association with SHC. This finding suggests that SHIP2, like that reported for SHIP1 previously, is linked to downstream signaling events after activation of hematopoietic growth factor receptors. However, using antibodies specific to these two proteins, we demonstrate that, whereas SHIP1 and SHIP2 selectively hydrolyze PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 in vitro, only SHIP1 hydrolyzes soluble Ins(1,3,4,5)P4. Such an enzymatic difference raises the possibility that SHIP1 and SHIP2 may serve different functions. Preliminary binding studies using lysates from p210bcr/abl-expressing cells indicate that both Ptyr SHIP2 and Ptyr SHIP1 bind to the PTB domain of SHC but not to its SH2 domain. Interestingly, SHIP2 was found to selectively bind to the SH3 domain of ABL, whereas SHIP1 selectively binds to the SH3 domain of Src. Furthermore, in contrast to SHIP1, SHIP2 did not bind to either the N-terminal or C-terminal SH3 domains of GRB2. These observations suggest (1) that SHIP1 and SHIP2 may have a different hierarchy of binding SH3 containing proteins and therefore may modulate different signaling pathways and/or localize to different cellular compartments and (2) that they may be substrates for tyrosine phosphorylation by different tyrosine kinases. Because recent evidence has clearly implicated both PI(3,4,5)P3 and PI(3,4)P2 in growth factor-mediated signaling, our finding that both SHIP1 and SHIP2 are constitutively tyrosine phosphorylated in CML primary hematopoietic progenitor cells may thus have important implications in p210bcr/abl-mediated myeloid expansion.

Abstract:
The paper shows that the author of English language narrative discourse can discuss with his/her readers such topics as inner state of fiction characters. It presents forms of representation of inner state of fiction characters. Firstly, the inner state of a character is described in contexts without metaphor. In this case, the main markers are verbs of mental state, names of emotions, physical representation of emotions, taste perception. Secondly, the inner state of fiction characters is represented via another situation. In this case, the comparison can be either direct or literal. Desperation is compared with a nightmare, beating into the wall, with the sense that the walls are closing in on a hero. Unreality of events is compared with the theatre where everything is make-belief. Thirdly, the inner state of a character is represented via comparison with a person who is experiencing similar feelings: The character can feel like a condemned prisoner, or like a captain of a sinking ship. Finally the inner state of heroes is represented via conceptual metaphor.

Abstract:
The Sea and the Hall as Eschatological OppositesBy Merete BøyeGrundtvig frequently uses the Anglo-Saxon (AS) hall (heall) as a symbol of Paradise or of the Church. The hall is described by Beowulf-expert Andreas Haarder as a life-centre, where the AS king and his men gather around the feast, the giving of gifts, and the song of the scald. The opposite of the hall is the un-settling surrounding ’outside’, which is nature. The hall exists wherever and whenever men gather together in fellowship, and is as such potentially eternal. But it is always exposed to outer threat. The force of nature which awed the Anglo-Saxons most of all was the sea, which - being a seafaring nation - they had learned to fear and respect. To the Anglo-Saxons, the sea was a hostile and almost invincible evil power that only a true hero - such as Beowulf - could hope to conquer. The sea was the force which separated us from Paradise, but also the force which you had to defy in order to reach Paradise.Henning Høirup has observed a similar relation between fellowship and outer threat in Grundtvig’s writings. In Fra døden til livet (From Death to Life), Høirup writes that life - to Grundtvig - is to fill your place in the fellowship for which God has created us. Death will try to force itself onto the fellowship and dissolve it. Høirup’s concepts of life and death correspond with the AS concepts of the hall and the sea.In the works of Grundtvig, AS sea-imagery often occurs, e.g. in De Levendes Land (The Land of the Living), where Paradise is described as »Landet bag Hav« (the land behind the sea), and in Grundtvig’s sermons based on Matthew 8, 23-27, where he likens the church to a ship carrying its passengers to Paradise. The helmsman of the ship is Christ or the Holy Ghost.In the article The First New European Literature (1993), S.A.J. Bradley also points to AS influence on Grundtvig’s last poem Gammel nok er jeg nu blevet (Old Enough I Now Have Grown), which holds the same kind of sea-imagery as Grundtvig used in the sermons mentioned. Especially the AS poem The Seafarer« is very similar to Gammel nok... Both The Seafarer and Gammel nok... tell of an old man, who is crossing a vast, hostile ocean on a ship. The destination is Paradise. At the end of both poems there is a passage of praise to the Lord. This article concludes that Gammel nok... may be inspired by the AS seafaring poems.

Abstract:
The understanding, I draw from this inquiry has come through a muddy, and complex entangledprocess. I have been re-turning like a "Baradian" earthworm, to experiences of being, in spacesof not-knowing. Digesting the mud, moving it, once more, like worms do, through the body.By doing an agential cut, into two spaces, eventually three strong agents unfold: Risk,Vulnerability, and Trust. Out of this result, an ethical and pedagogical question arise: How totake account of Vulnerability and Trust when encouraging our students to Risk?Entering a space of not knowing is at the foundation of my art practice. When as an arteducator,I went to China to inquire into the educational strategies of Chinese Classical Painting,I found myself thrown into a multitude of spaces of not knowing. This thesis, is an inquiry intohow being in such spaces, perform knowledge. To explore this, I return to the field-notes andvisual material including a report in the form of a visual essay of the study from 2011. I re-turnto this material with new tools and concepts inspired by Karen Barads metaphors of diffractionand earth-worms approach, as well as my artists tools: brush, water colours, ink, and paper;inrtoducing painting as a tool for analysis.As a theoretical approach, I entangle the flat ontology of Deleuze and Guattari, and theonto-epistem-ology of Barad, with the philosophical traditions in China of Buddhism and Dao.From an onto-epistem-ological perspective, I ask the question: "If we know about the worldbecause we are of the world," what knowledge then appear, when we experience our being in theworld as a space of not knowing. In this study, I have found that a space of not knowing performlearning through experiences of Vulnerability, Risk and Trust.The art part of this thesis is connected to Risk as well as to Vulnerability and Trust. Itfeatures a rope hanging from the ceiling to the floor. It is a rope that has been used during severalyears by a Circus artist during performances; hanging high up in the ceiling — demanding focusand presence from him. The installation at Konstfack spring-show 2018 featured the Circus artistrope together with a painting made in the context of Buddhist Vipassana meditation, entanglingmy tactile approach in art, with the text of this thesis.

In postmodern literary criticism, Roland Barthes’ “The Death of the Author” and Michael Foucault’s “What is an Author?” subvert the notion of “author” in the traditional sense. Both of them agree that when the author is dead, the text begins to appear more as a “game” of language. Barthes and Foucault’s assertions on “the liberation of the reader” through “the author’s death” are developed from Mikhail Bakhtin’s “polyphonic poetics” in which he preaches the necessity of the author’s release of power in order to present, ethically, the complete ideology of the hero. According to Bakhtin, the author must allow sufficient freedom for the hero to create his pure authentic voice. However, the author is inevitably responsible for the style of the novel. He must be scrupulous in the choice of words, conscientious in the arrangement of characters and setting, painstaking at creating a certain situation, and meticulous in presenting the structure of the narrative. Based on these reasons, I intend an examination of the novelistic languages of three contemporary American novels--Saul Bellow’s Herzog, Edith Wharton’s The Custom of the Country, and Katherine Anne Porter’s Ship of Fools—one partially based on Bakhtin’s linguistic investigations, and partially based on my revisions of his theoretical statements. Diverging form Bakhtin’s terms of analysis, I divide the authorial discourse into two categories—“visible authorial discourse” and “invisible authorial discourse.” I suggest that we add the analysis of the “invisible authorial discourse” to the discussions of the three novelistic languages because the “invisible authorial discourse” covers all elements on the structural plane of a novel and can express the author’s intention in a more complete way. In my analysis of Herzog, Bellow, throughout the novel, preserves the autonomy of Herzog’s discourse. In many part of the text, the reader witnesses the phenomenon of “double-voicedness” in which Bellow’s speech is detached from that of the hero. But, examining the “invisible authorial discourse,” Bellow stifles the characters’ discourses to consolidate the idea that Herzog is a person who refuses to listen to others. To discuss the “invisible authorial discourse” of Herzog, I discovered that Herzog partially fails to meet Bakhtin’s polyphonic guidelines. In my examination of The Custom of the Country, the novel appears to be more like a monologic novel. Both the “visible” and the “invisible” authorial discourses strongly display their artistic aim by regulating the developments of those discourses. The “visible authorial discourse” often employs certain words of connotative significance to denote the “aristocrat” or the “merchant” qualities of the characters’ discourse. Character’s discourse in this novel is not completely autonomous but most of the time is bristling with the author’s overall intentions. The “invisible authorial discourse” focuses on the process how these upstarts firstly aspire after and finally usurp the privileged position of the old New York aristocracy. In short, Wharton’s discourse controls the full blossoming of the character’s ideology. The novelistic language of Ship of Fools, in the Bakhtinian sense, speaks for the greatest achievement in terms of diversity and universality among the three novels. The polyphonic phenomenon is mostly explicit in the visible authorial discourse in which there is neither an emphasis upon the speech of the author nor a singularity of discourse of a protagonist. In conclusion, Ship of Fools is the one written in a mode mostly resembling Bakhtin’s polyphonic novel. However, there are scarcely any personal touches, artistic deftness of hand, or novelistic magic worthy of discussion. Herzog and The Custom of the Country, though they do not fulfill so many of the requirements of Bakhtin’s polyphony just like Ship of Fools does, both include, to various degrees, the author’s autonomous presentations of the hero / heroine’s languages and lives to bring to light particular aspects meaningful to the authors. Both novels have been regarded as great literary works because of the novelists’ “individual genius.” Thus, a faithful reproduction of true human social languages does not alone fulfill the special needs of the novel, which is always in need of literary skills that transform true human life situations into a literary version of human life in such a way as to make the description of life much more condensed, meaningful, and purposeful. On the other hand, the notion of the author cannot be easily annihilated, since it strikes its roots in every aspect of the novel, which surely brings a profound influence on the style of a novel. What makes Bakhtin’s polyphonic poetics questionable is because he ignores the author’s overall scheme of a literary work, which is mostly manifested in the invisible authorial discourse. Though Bakhtin serves as the pioneer critic of the privileged position of the novelist, the problem is, he is associated with a number of key concepts in the study of literature. Many of the postmodern notions, especially the “Death of the Author,” have become widespread and influential in current literary criticism. By exposing to view Bakhtin’s weaknesses, we also witness the inadequacy of these postmodern propositions.

Full text
Abstract:
The year is 1600. It is April and Japan’s iconic cherry trees are in full flower. A battered ship drifts on the tide into Usuki Bay in southern Japan. On board, barely able to stand, are twenty-three Dutchmen and one Englishman, the remnants of a fleet of five ships and 500 men that had set out from Rotterdam in 1598. The Englishman was William Adams, later to be known as Anjin Miura by the Japanese, whose subsequent transformation from wretched prisoner to one of the Shogun’s closest advisers is the centrepiece of this book. As a native of Japan, and a scholar of seventeenth-century Japanese history, the author delves deep into the cultural context facing Adams in what is one of the great examples of assimilation into the highest reaches of a foreign culture. Her access to Japanese sources, including contemporary accounts – some not previously seen by Western scholars researching the subject – offers us a fuller understanding of the life lived by William Adams as a high-ranking samurai and his grandstand view of the collision of cultures that led to Japan’s self-imposed isolation, lasting over two centuries. This is a highly readable account of Adams’ voyage to and twenty years in Japan and that is supported by detailed observations of Japanese culture and society at this time. New light is shed on Adams’ relations with the Dutch and his countrymen, including the disastrous relationship with Captain John Saris, the key role likely to have been played by the munitions, including cannon, removed from Adams’ ship De Liefde in the great battle of Sekigahara (September 1600), the shipbuilding skills that enabled Japan to advance its international maritime ambitions, as well as the scientific and technical support Adams was able to provide in the refining process of Japan’s gold and silver.

Abstract:
Abstract The DDG 51 Class of AEGIS guided missile destroyers is the Navy’s premier surface combatant. Named for famed World War II hero. Admiral Arleigh Burke, these ships represent state-of-the-art technology. This 504 foot, 8,300 ton destroyer has been designed with improved seakeeping and survivability characteristics and carries the sophisticated AEGIS Weapon System. Derived from the Greek word meaning “shield”, AEGIS ships are the “shield of the fleet”. The Navy has commissioned the first two ships of the class. They have performed beyond expectation in rigorous at-sea trials designed to fully test combat capability. The DDG 51 Class ships are replacing retiring fleet assets. In a decreasing Department of Defense (DoD) budget environment, however, acquisition costs must be reduced to continue to build capable warships. The Navy’s Destroyer Program Office is pursuing the implementation of Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) technology to reduce costs without reducing ship’s capability. Under Navy direction, the ship construction yards, Bath Iron Works and Ingalls Shipbuilding, are aggressively pursuing the transition to CAD-based design, construction, and life cycle support This effort also involves General Electric, the Combat System Engineering Agent. Building a three dimensional (3D) computer model of the ship prior to construction will facilitate the identification and resolution of interferences and interface problems that would otherwise go undetected until actual ship construction. This 3D database contains geometry and design data to support system design. Accurate construction drawings, fabrication sketches, and Numerical Control (NC) data can be extracted directly from the database to support construction at each shipyard. At completion of construction, a model representing the “as built” configuration will be provided as a lifetime support tool for each ship’s projected 40 year life. The transition to CAD-based design and construction has applied fundamental concepts of the DoD’s Computer Aided Acquisition and Logistic Support (CALS) initiative. In addition to creating a 3D database representing ship design, the shipyards have developed a neutral file translator to exchange this data between Computervision and Calma CAD systems in operation at Bath Iron Works and Ingalls Shipbuilding respectively. This object oriented transfer capability ensures data is shared rather than duplicated. The CALS concepts of concurrent engineering and computer aided engineering analysis are being applied to design an upgrade to the ship that features the addition of a helicopter hanger. The CAD models are used as an electronic baseline from which to assess proposed modifications. Optimizing the design before the first piece of steel is cut will reduce construction costs and improve the quality of the ship.

Abstract:
The authors report how to estimate stopping ability of full-scale ships using free-running model equipped with an auxiliary thruster. Theoretical analysis based on a modular mathematical model clarifies the similarity of three-degree-of-freedom stopping manoeuvre of a model ship to full-scale cannot be ensured by the use of auxiliary thruster. The authors, however, propose JSC, propeller advance ratio J and speed correction, ensuring the equality of J and the similarity of speed response of free-running model ship to full-scale during stopping manoeuvre. JSC is a control method of free-running model ship equipped with an auxiliary thruster for estimating stopping ability of full-scale ship from the viewpoint of safety. Numerical simulation confirms JSC gives safe side estimates of stopping ability with regard to the track reach and stopping time with acceptable margin. The analysis shown here proves the advantage of JSC comparing with possible other control methods of free-running model ships.

Abstract:
This paper deals with the parametric study of relative wave heights of ships in short crested irregular seas. Here linear potential theory has been used to describe the fluid motion and 3-D sink-source technique with forward speed has been used to determine hydrodynamic forces for surface ship advancing in waves at constant speed. The time domain simulations of relative wave heights of typical container ship, bulk carrier, pure car carrier (PCC) and general cargo ships in short crested irregular waves have been carried out for three different sea states and for the parametric study of these vessels, different sizes of ships have been considered. Empirical roll damping has been taken into account in time domain analyses of motion responses of sea going ships in rough seas and for ensuring longer time simulation of the random sea waves, unequal frequency spacing has been used. Finally, the numerical results of the maximum and the significant values of irregular relative wave heights are discussed by comparing with some requirements by a classification society of shipping for the different sizes of ships which might provide some important information for the designer of ocean going vessel to assess possible deck load or bottom impact force on future regulation of designing ship.

Abstract:
Numerical simulation of maneuvering of “Naniwa-maru" was performed to clarify the maneuver characteristics in particular with wearing operation. "Naniwa-maru" belongs to a type called Higaki-kaisen, and the Higaki-kaisen is a type of the more generic class of vessels named "Bezai-ship". Bezai-ship are typical Japanese sailing traders in the 18th to the mid- 19th century which have different appearance and construction from those of Western tall ships. The present paper shows the numerical simulation of her wearing operation, and the results compared with the measured data. The equations of motion dealt with coupled ship motions of surge, sway, roll and yaw with co-ordinate system using horizontal body axes. The numerical simulation indicates ship response according to the measured time history of rudder angle, and shows the ship trajectory and the sailing state parameters such as heading angle, leeway angle, heel angle and velocity. The calculated results indicated the ship performance very well.

Full text
Abstract:
The ship based Floating Production Storage and Offloading system (FPSO) has been largely used in the recent offshore oil exploration. In most of the cases the oil stored in FPSO is offloaded to a shuttle ship that is connected by a hawser in tandem configuration. The problem of dynamic instability that arises in several ship mooring systems, like SPM and SMS subjected to the environmental forces, may also be present in the tandem system. Although the tandem mooring is a common procedure in the offshore oil industry, there are few publications related to the theme. Among these, there are none concerned with the environmental forces interference caused by FPSO on shuttle ship, here called as shadow effect. It is well known that the dynamic behaviour of a moored ship, in particular SPM system, is hardly affected by the environmental forces. Therefore, it is expected that shadow effect on the environmental forces acting on the shuttle ship will cause great influence in its dynamic behaviour, and consequently in the dynamics of whole FPSO-shuttle system. These phenomena could be observed in experiments with single point moored shuttle ships with and without the FPSO in upstream position. Therefore, the shadow effect should be considered in analysis of dynamic behaviour of two ships connected in tandem. Among the commercial simulators that analyse tandem systems there are none that consider shadow effect, making their analysis different from the real world. This paper presents an empirical model of the current shadow effect. The model was implemented in a numerical simulator, named DYNASIM. The comparison between numerical results and experimental one showed that the proposed model is effective.

Abstract:
The revised MARPOL Convention addresses emissions from ships under Annex VI, chapter 4, entered into force since 1st January 2013. It set mandatory measures to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) from international shipping, with the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) made mandatory for new ships, and the Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP) made a requirement for all ships. The major consumption of energy and burning of fuel onboard is generally required for Ballast water management, Sea water cooling, Cargo operation and Propulsion. Energy efficiency plays the most important role in reduction of energy consumption, fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, accounting for up to 53% of total CO2 emission reductions onboard ship. In pumping applications onboard vessels for sea water cooling systems, the use of proposed Variable Frequency Drives (VFD) control can cut the energy consumption by as much as 60%. Here we have developed a model of adjustable speed drives for controlling high power centrifugal pumps onboard ship for energy conservation and eco-friendly sailing. The results of simulation shows that the proposed method of flow control using VFD not only saves energy but also reduces burning of fuel and also results in a reduction of greenhouse gas emission. Therefore by the use of proposed Green, Smart and Intelligent technology, we can save significant energy and reduce emission of GHG, so as to meet stringent norms as per MARPOL ANNEX-VI, Chapter-4.

Full text
Abstract:
An excessive slewing motion of a towed ship intrudes on sea traffic ways and may lead to the hazardous responses, such as crashing to other vessels or fixed offshore structures. In the presence of wind disturbances, which exerted on an exposed windage areas of a towed ship, her slewing motion behaviour was clearly different as compared with calm water condition. This paper presents a nonlinear analysis of the slewing motion characteristics of towed ship in the steady wind condition. Two different towed ships, one of them equipped with skegs, were towed by a tow ship at the various velocities and the angles of winds. The results revealed that the slewing motion of towed ship (no skeg) was reduced significantly at the angle of wind (θw = 120°) in proportion with the increase of wind velocities (Uw). Concurrently, the towed ship has been drift, then preserved its course steadily with a certain heading angle. In addition, the slewing motion of towed ship was also reduced as the increase of ratios of tow point position (lB/L2). However, the slewing motions of towed ship raised gradually due to the increase of heading and following wind velocities, which finally led to the course instability.

Abstract:
Abstract In order to ensure the structural safety of a ship, the most severe sea states she is expected to encounter throughout her service life need to be given consideration. This is the reason why the maximum loads corresponding to such sea states are typically specified in classification society structural rules such as the Common Structural Rules (CSR) of the International Association of Classification Societies (IACS). The maximum loads used for the structural design of a ship can have a significant impact on not only her structural safety, but also her hull construction cost; therefore, it is very important that the loads be accurately estimated. The linear term of the maximum loads typically specified in some classification society rules is equivalent to a long-term predicted value with an exceedance probability of 10−8. Since the maximum loads specified in classification society rules such as the CSR were developed specifically for specific ship types, their effective application to other ship types may be somewhat limited. Aim of our larger study is to develop a closed formula of long-term prediction for maximum loads. The formula has high accuracy and can be applied to any ship size and type. This paper focused on the heave acceleration and pitch angle, which are used for the calculation of internal loads and so on. A formula which takes into account such as the standard deviation of the hull response in irregular waves and the directional distribution of irregular waves was proposed. Main ship parameters such as ship length L, breadth B, draft d, block coefficient Cb, and water line area coefficient Cw were used for formulating the long-term prediction. The accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed formula were confirmed through various numerical calculations using a linear seakeeping analysis code developed by ClassNK. The calculation covers 154 ship models (77 existing ships × 2 loading conditions per ship).

Full text
Abstract:
The LHD 8 amphibious assault ship utilizes a hybrid propulsion plant, where the ship has the capability to be propelled by electric propulsion motors or gas turbine engines all of which is controlled and monitored by a state-of-the-art Machinery Control System (MCS). Unlike the previous ships of the class which were steam powered, the hybrid drive is designed to allow economical low speed fuel efficiency on electric motors as well as a traditional gas turbine power plant for all other mission areas. This will yield significant fuel savings over the life of the ship. The integrated machinery control system is likewise expected to reduce life cycle costs through reduced manning. After a successful series of sea trials, the LHD 8, Makin Island was delivered to the US Navy on April 2009 and departed the builders’ yard in July 2009 for a transit around the tip of South America to her homeport of San Diego, CA. The paper discusses the results of Builders and Acceptance Trials as well as the in-service experience of the ship on her maiden voyage. Examples are given of predicted vs. expected fuel consumption rates, design issues encountered and corrective measures taken as well as feedback from operators on the overall machinery plant design the MCS and its ease of operation. Included in the paper are ship drawings, photos and diagrams.
