Abstract:

This paper discusses practicability of a large-diameter hull for an underwater vehicle as a totality of cylindrical shells with parallel axes forming a “global” cylinder (polyhull). Structural design is justified by analytical and numerical (FE) calculations of strength, structural stability and compression, with corresponding conclusions and recommendations.

<p>Tethered underwater robot (TUR) for underwater vessel anchor release is presented. In off-shore oil and gas enviromnment, there has been series of reported cases on stuck vessel anchors after mooring operations and divers are sent to release these anchors for the vessels to be in motion. The use of divers to perform such function is very risky because of human limitation and some divers have been reported dead on the process due to high pressure underwater or being attacked by underwater wide animals. This has caused very serious panic to the vessel owners and hence, this work is aime

Abstract:

This paper describes the preliminary process for designing a 250 ft dynamically positioned, Diving Support Vessel. This is to serve the offshore oil industry as a platform for underwater intervention. Enlisting the use of the latest technological advances, the vessel will support both remotely operated vehicles and human divers. We will trace the development of this design with a well-defined agenda. Beginning with an analysis of the existing fleet, a practical hull form is created, which leads to solid estimations for hydrostatics, stability, resistance, powering and preliminary arrangements.

The risk of such collisions has increased over the last years as a result of increased offshore seismic survey operations. Therefore, a towed streamer should be very robust.

Based on the multiphase model of FLUENT 6.3,a underwater projectile cavitation model is established for a new designed underwater projectile which have a disc cavitator.Then the cavitation number influence on cavitation form is concerned and contrast with the empirical formula of cavitation form.The conclusion is：with the increase of cavitation number,the drag coefficient will increase non-linear;the cavitation slenderness radio is greater,the drag coefficient is smaller. Supercavitation phenomenon is that when a object moves in water and it’s speed increases constantly, according to Bernoulli

AbstractThis paper presents the reliability analysis carried out on the subsystems of the underwater polymetallic nodule mining machine developed by National Institute of Ocean Technology, India, which is being enhanced for polymetallic nodule mining technology demonstration at 6,000-m water depth in the Central Indian Ocean Basin, where manganese nodules are available in abundance. The mining machine, which is a tracked vehicle, was successfully demonstrated at a water depth of 512 m, wherein the nodules are collected, crushed, and pumped to the mother vessel.

Abstract:

Most seabeds are unexplored and rich in mineral deposits, making offshore mining a promising activity. However, offshore operation brings in great challenges from technical equipment to physical space. For instance, an offshore agitated vessel is supposed to stabilize the solids concentration from the underwater mining and make little impact on the stability of the platform or ship. For this reason, we proposed a novel offshore agitated vessel. The whole system based on the arrangement of the mineral processing platform and the slurry mix flow rate is obtained from the previous design stage. L

Abstract:

IPMC is becoming an increasingly popular material among scholars, engineers and scientists due to its inherent properties of low activation voltage, large bending strain, flexibility, softness, suitable response time which make them a strong candidate to be applied as artificial muscle in biomimetic land and underwater applications. The applications of IPMC have been growing due to progression in its manufacturing techniques, development of more accurate response models and control techniques, and recently more sophisticated IPMC actuator applications have been performed.

Abstract The goal of the project described is to replace the existing propulsion system of a small underwater vehicle with a solution less prone to mechanical damage and ensuring a lower risk of the entanglement of fibrous objects suspended in the body of water. Four typical marine screws are utilised in the current design of the vehicle. One possible solution of the problem is the application of waterjet propulsors located inside the body of the vehicle instead. The general condition of the application of the new solution was to secure at least the same motion control capabilities of the vehi

This paper mainly studies the performance of an acoustic beamforming technique applied to a low-cost hydrophone in a linear array of two to four elements for the detection and localization of underwater acoustic sound waves. It also evaluates the integration of the array in an energy-efficient real-time monitoring system architecture, allowing marine sensing to be conducted without human intervention. Such architecture would consist of vertical linear arrays of two or four RHSA-10 hydrophones models attached to a buoy or a vessel for sound detection; a frequency domain beamformer (FDB) techniq

An autonomous underwater hovering vehicle (AUH) is a novel, dish-shaped, axisymmetric, multi-functional, ultra-mobile submersible in the autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) family. Numerical studies of nonlinear, asymmetric water entry impact forces on symmetrical, airborne-launched AUVs from conventional single-arm cranes on a research vessel, or helicopters or planes, is significant for the fast and safe launching of low-speed AUVs into the target sea area in the overall design. Moreover, a single-arm crane is one of the important ways to launch AUVs with high expertise and security. However

Abstract:

The task of building the underwater picture from sonar data is made complex by high volumes of noise and multiple data that arrive from a variety of acoustic sources detected at great distances by modern, sonar equipment. Typically, acoustic sources from ships have a complex spectrum consisting of several base frequency components and related harmonics. The task for operators is to analyse the data to determine if there is a pattern that represents the signature of a known source, thereby leading to identification of a vessel. Since the task can be highly labour intensive automated decision ai

Underwater heritage and archaeology is, in general, limited to the few who have permission, and the means to actually dive on location and experience the submarine sites. Dry dive technologies such as Augmented Reality (AR) now offer unprecedented opportunity to change this situation.

These transducers can be made out of piezoceramic wedges or slabs and metallic wedges. Higher diameter, low frequency transducers are generally made out of piezoceramic slabs and metal wedges due to ease of manufacture and low cost. In this paper, metal ceramic segmented ring transducers are modelled using ATILA, a finite element software for the design of underwater transducers. Transducer variants were modelled with different wedge and piezoceramic materials. Transducer

The main aim of the SFG is to ship CO2 from an offshore facility to an underwater well where the gas can be injected; as an advantage, the SFG vehicle may be used to transport all kinds of cargo. The SFG travels below the sea surface, making the vessel weather-independent. The research is divided into two steps.

Abstract:

Underwater acoustic signature identification has been employed as a technique for detecting underwater vehicles, such as in anti-submarine warfare or harbour security systems. The underwater sound channel, however, has interference due to spatial variations in topography or sea state conditions and temporal variations in water column properties, which cause multipath and scattering in acoustic propagation. Thus, acoustic data quality control can be very challenging. One of challenges for an identification system is how to recognise the same target signature from measurements under different te
