An experimental study has been carried out in a laboratory flume to characterize the turbulence structure and turbulence anisotropy in the boundary layer over smooth and rough side walls for both current alone and wave-current combined flow situations. The rough side wall of the flume comprises a train of circular ribs (diameter, k) attached vertically maintaining uniform spacing p along the streamwise direction. The experiments are performed for smooth surface and rough (ribbed) surfaces with p/k = 2, 3, and 4 to reproduce different cases of d-type rib roughness. The effect of wave-current interaction has been investigated by superposing waves of two different frequencies. Time series data of three velocity components are obtained using Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter. At the near wall region, roughness with higher p/k value enhances the level of turbulent intensity and Reynolds stress significantly. In a channel with smooth side wall, the wave-current combined flow produces lesser turbulence intensity than the current alone flow near the wall. However, for a ribbed wall case, the effect is completely opposite that is, wave-current interacting flow induces higher intensities compared to the reference current alone flow. Substantial decline in the turbulent length scales at the near wall region are observed for ribbed walls, which reveals the strong effect of roughness elements on the turbulent structure. Superposition of wave reduces the length scales even more for both smooth and rough wall cases. As the spacing between two ribs ( p/ k ratio) increases, the energy dissipation rate increases. The analysis of anisotropy invariant map demonstrates a reduction of anisotropy in the vicinity of ribbed wall compared to that for a smooth wall. For wave-current combined flow, the anisotropy invariant data of Reynolds stress tensor varies dramatically within the boundary of map, reflecting significant changes in the state of turbulence.

Global aquaculture is in exponential trend to fulfil the demand for seafood due to the rise in world population. Most countries have implemented nearshore farming and reached their limits, which impacts water quality parameters. Offshore farming is the alternative option to counteract this nearshore farming issue and balance the aquaculture demand and supply. The present study construes on the numerical study of the porous wall fencing offshore fish cage subjected to regular waves. The numerical analysis is carried out for four cages by varying porous hole diameters from 0.5 to 0.7 m and without porosity. All the cages are placed at the same water depth of 200 m, interacting with a constant wave height of 6m with wave periods ranging from 6.92 to 19.05 s. Both frequency and time domain analysis are conducted to study the variation of hydrodynamic parameters, namely added mass, wave excitation forces, radiational potential damping, motion responses, and mooring line tension. Among all cage configurations, the cage with 0.5 m diameter porous hole fencing performs better for all wave conditions considered. Also, a scaled model of 1:75 was considered in both experimental and numerical studies for the purpose of validation. It is learnt that experimental parameters such as motion responses and mooring line tension are in good agreement.

This work aimed to test the feasibility, both experimentally and numerically, of a novel concept for a robust Wave Energy Converter (WEC) operating in the near-shore region. The converter uses a series of non-return valves, constrained by a tapered pipe, where the incoming wave builds up pressure in each compartment and finally drives a turbine onshore with the pressurised water. The device is aimed at remote communities, to gain energy security and reduce dependence on imports. The device facilitates local engagement, and it is intended that local people are trained to perform most maintenance tasks using low cost, readily available, parts. This work assessed the feasibility of the WEC through physical testing, the results of which were compared to initial numerical models. The device was shown to capture energy and, through a case study of Ushant Island off the coast of France, was shown to have the potential to become part of the future energy mix for remote communities.

Sustainable development, one of the main challenges of our time, is a policy focused on the perfect balance between three fundamental pillars: environmental, economic and social sustainability. As regards the environmental protection, the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology allows to evaluate the sustainability profile of the overall Life-Cycle (LC) of products, processes and services, based on an inventory (in terms of materials/energy consumption and emissions/waste production) referred to all LC stages. The paper describes an application of LCA in the maritime transportation field, after a careful analysis of the state of the art. In particular, the case study consists in the environmental comparison of two alternative design solutions for the superstructure of a Azimut-Benetti yacht, designed by Corporate R&D department and manufactured in one of Benetti botyards. The competing construction options are a Glass Fiber reinforced Vinylester-isophthalic Resin (GFVR) and a Carbon Fiber reinforced Epoxy Resin (CFER) component, and they are assessed in terms of Global Warming Potential through the CML2001 Life Cyle Impact Assessment (LCIA) method. The study takes into account the entire LC of the superstructure component, divided into production (including raw materials, manufacturing and transportations), use (including both fuel consumption and exhaust air emissions) and End-of-Life (EoL). The Life Cycle Inventory (LCI) is mainly based on primary data (materials and energy consumption for manufacturing) directly provided by the construction company; missing data are retrieved from secondary sources (literature and LCI database provided by the GaBi6 environmental software). Results show that, despite the higher impact in production stage, the innovative solution allows achieving a significant quota of GWP over the entire LC (more than 16%), which is mainly associated with decreased amount of fuel needed and lowered CO2 exhaust emissions during operation. The sensitivity analysis reveals that the environmental advantage provided by the CFER design becomes bigger as both component life-time and yacht consumption increase.

Shipborne cranes are widely used in marine engineering and are employed in more diversified working scenes. However, due to the extensive swing range of ships, it is impossible to locate the payload accurately. A constant tension control method of payload anti-swing is proposed based on the principle of linear velocity feedback. This paper establishes a dynamic model of the payload anti-swing system driven by hydraulic motors. The characteristics of the payload swing and the cable tension are obtained through the dynamic simulation. The simulation and experimental results show that the constant tension control method significantly suppresses the shipborne crane’s payload swing, and the payload anti-swing effect reaches 73% and 85.6%. It is also found that the payload swings asymmetrically under external excitation. In addition, the effects of payload asymmetric swing on cable tension, payload swing angle, and the hydraulic pump output oil pressure are studied by a payload asymmetric swing experiment, and the results show that the proposed method also has a good suppression effect on the asymmetric payload swing.

Numerical Wave Tanks (NWTs) allow for in-depth investigations into the hydrodynamics and wave responses of floating objects. Thus, they are widely used during the design phase of many offshore platforms and devices. Such problems often feature low turbulence, with wave propagation and wave-object interaction being the key features. In this paper, the merits of using a laminar flow model for a NWT with a free-to-heave buoy, subject to second order Stokes waves in a low sea state is investigated. The simulations are implemented using the interFoam solver, which is embedded in OpenFOAM. The time series of waves measured upstream and downstream of the buoy, and the buoy hydrodynamics are compared to analytical and experimental results for accuracy evaluations. It is shown that, due to the low turbulence level of the problem, the laminar approach can deliver more accurate results than turbulent models, such as Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes Simulation (RANS) or partially-averaged Navier-Stokes Simulation (PANS). Moreover, the simulation time of the laminar simulations is significantly shorter than to those of RANS and PANS.

This paper presents a semi analytic time domain method for the analysis of the symmetric hydroelastic response of a container ship subject to slamming and green water loads. An Impulse Response Function (IRF) is adopted for the calculation of radiation, diffraction and wave excitation forces. Local hydrodynamic forces associated with green water on decks and slamming loads are respectively modelled by the Buchner’s Dam Break Model and a Generalised Wagner Model. The structural responses are captured by Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and solved by the modal superposition method. The Duhamel Integral technique is used to evaluate the dynamic response. A parametric study demonstrates how external forces may affect the global wave induced vertical bending moments and shear forces. Numerical simulations are compared against a hybrid method that combines computational fluid dynamics, boundary element and finite element methods for low to medium frequency induced dynamic response. It is concluded that the proposed semi analytic methodology is fast and accurate and may be useful at concept ship design stage.

Anti-disturbance control problem is studied for ship dynamic positioning systems with model uncertainties and ocean disturbances under thruster faults. For the ocean disturbance, a stochastic disturbance observer (SDO) is established to give the online estimation. For thruster faults, an adaptive law is used to evaluate, which is obtain from Lyapunov function. For model uncertainties, a robust control term with adaptive technology is used to attenuate it. Then, a composite anti-disturbance control (CADC) strategy is raised by combining disturbance observer-based control (DOBC), adaptive technology, and robust control term, which makes the position and yaw angle of ship reach the desired values. Finally, the simulation example proves the validity of the controller.

Physics Informed Neural Networks (PINN), a deep learning tool, has recently become an effective method for solving inverse Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) where the boundary/initial conditions are not well defined and only noisy sparse measurements sampled in the domain exist. PINN, and other Neural Networks, tends to converge to the low frequency solution in a field that has multiple frequency scales, this is known as spectral bias. For PINN this happens when solving PDEs that exhibit periodic behavior spatially and temporally with multi frequency scales. Previous studies suggested that Fourier Features-Neural Networks (FF-NN) can be used to overcome the spectral bias problem. They proposed the Multi Scale-Spatio Temporal-Fourier Features-Physics Informed Neural Networks (MS-ST-FF-PINN) to overcome the spectral bias problem in PDEs solved by PINN. This has been evaluated on basic PDEs such as Poisson, wave and Gray-Scott equations. In this paper we take MS-ST-FF-PINN a step further by applying it to the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Furthermore, a comparative analysis between the PINN and the MS-ST-FF-PINN architectures solution accuracy, the learnt frequency components and the rate of convergence to the correct solution is included. To show this three test cases are shown (a)-Forward time independent double-lid-driven cavity, (b)-Inverse time independent free surface estimation of Kelvin wave pattern, and (c)-Inverse 2D time-dependent turbulent Von Karman vortex shedding interaction downstream of multiple cylinders. The results show that MS-ST-FF-PINN is better at learning low and high frequency components synchronously at early training iterations compared to the PINN architecture that does not learn the high frequency components even after multiple iteration numbers such as the Kelvin wave pattern and the Karman vortex shedding cases. However, for the third test case, the MS-ST-FF-PINN architecture showed a discontinuity for the temporal prediction of the pressure field due to over-fitting.

However, for the third test case, the MS-ST-FF-PINN architecture showed a discontinuity for the temporal prediction of the pressure field due to over-fitting.","PeriodicalId":20667,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part M: Journal of Engineering for the Maritime Environment","volume":"1 1","pages":"846 - 866"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74365387","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study reports the energy specific air emissions from a diesel-cycle high pressure injection dual fuel engine for operation on liquefied natural gas and heavy fuel oil. An experiment at sea was performed onboard a bulk carrier during commercial voyages, to measure the efficiency of the engine and to measure air emissions relevant to air pollution and climate impact for operation on both fuels. The measurements showed that the energy conversion efficiency of the engine was higher for operation on liquefied natural gas because its lower NOx emissions permitted the use of a higher effective compression ratio whilst meeting the same NOx emissions level. The results showed that the climate impact for operation on heavy fuel oil was 2.1–2.3 times higher than for liquefied natural gas at 50% load, if considering only the emissions occurring at the engine. Analysis of the air emissions for their individual contributions to climate impacts suggested that black carbon had the strongest climate impact of all air emissions in the case of operation on heavy fuel oil. For operation on liquefied natural gas, CO2 had the strongest individual climate impact amongst the air emissions from the engine.
