Abstract Dynamic designs for ship propulsion shafting can be categorised as complex multi-disciplinary coupling systems. The traditional single disciplinary optimisation design method has become a bottleneck, restricting the further improvement of shafting design. In this paper, taking a complex propulsion shafting as the object, a dynamic analysis model of the propeller-shafting-hull system was established. In order to analyse the coupling effect of propeller hydrodynamics on shafting dynamics, the propeller’s hydrodynamic force in the wake flow field was calculated as the input for shafting alignment and vibration analysis. On this basis, the discipline decomposition and analysis of the subdisciplines in design of shafting dynamics were carried out. The coupling relationships between design variables in the subdisciplines were studied and the Multi-disciplinary Design Optimisation (MDO) framework of shafting dynamics was established. Finally, taking the hollowness of the shaft segments and the vertical displacement of bearings as design variables, combined with the optimal algorithm, the MDO of shafting dynamics, considering the coupling effect of the propeller-shafting-hull system, was realised. The results presented in this paper can provide a beneficial reference for improving the design quality of ship shafting.

Abstract The development of IoT (the Internet of Things) wireless transmission opens a new era in communication systems. In the next years, the development and implementation of IoT systems will be very dynamic. It can be seen that the solutions of LTE – NB-IoT (Long Term Evolution – Narrowband IoT) transmission devices are implemented in a wide range of terrestrial solutions, e.g. smart grids. This paper aims to analyse the possibility of the use of NB-IoT technology for maritime communication applications and partially, for some maritime safety solutions, based on signal coverage analysis at sea. An interesting approach is the comparison of the results of NB-IoT coverage to the classic cellular LTE-based communication systems. Proposed solutions are based on the practical implementation of a designed specialised data concentrator with implemented gateway and radio modems, for both NB-IoT technology as well as LTE. In the paper, analyses of radio link budget and propagation loss models for sea environment are presented. The coverage analysis is based on real measurements of the efficiency of transmissions using wireless modems implemented in the developed data concentrator.

Abstract This paper presents a study of a viscous torsional vibration damper for a crankshaft of a four-stroke diesel engine. The reliable operation of a widely used silicone-type viscous damper depends on the ability of the silicone oil to absorb the energy of torsional vibrations. The non-Newtonian shear flow of the silicone oil interlayer, characterised by a reduction in the shear-rate-dependent viscosity and a moment of the drag forces, negatively affects damping characteristics. A torsional vibration damper, filled with a shear-thickening fluid, was considered and a rheological approach, based on viscosity growth with the shear rate increase, was applied. For such a damper, larger velocity gradients correspond to the higher values of a viscous force, which decreases torsional vibration. The parameter of damper effectiveness (defined by the fluid flow index, values of the damper gaps, torsional vibration amplitude and frequency) was implemented. It has been established that the efficiency of the torsional vibration damper filled with a dilatant fluid does not depend on the damper dimensions and gaps and significantly increases when a shear-thickening fluid is used instead of silicone oil or a Newtonian fluid. At higher values of the flow index, when the non-Newtonian flow becomes distinct, torsional vibrations are damped more effectively. Critical vibration amplitudes at high-velocity gradients, in turn, increase the damping effect as the moment of the drag forces and flow index are power-law related.

Abstract To illustrate the vibration characteristics of a rotating pipe in flow, experiments were conducted for a pipe in flow, a rotating pipe in still water and a rotating pipe in flow. For the pipe in flow without rotation, the trajectory diagram is ‘8’ shaped. For the rotating pipe in still water, a multiple frequency component was induced, and a ‘positive direction whirl’ was found. For the flow and rotation, at a flow velocity of 0.46 m/s, the vibration is dominated by the combination of flow and rotation. With an increase in rotating frequency, the trajectory of the rotating pipe varies from an ‘8’ shape to a circular shape and the ‘reverse direction whirl’ is induced, which is different from ‘positive direction’ in still water. The vibration frequency ratio increases uniformly with flow velocity. At a flow velocity of 1.02 m/s, at which the frequency is close to the theoretical natural frequency, the vibration frequency ratio is f*≈1. Predominantly governed by vortex-induced vibration (VIV), the vibration behavior of a rotating pipe subjected to fluid flow conditions has been found to exhibit complete vanishing of whirl. The vibration characteristics of a rotating pipe in flow are studied by the experiments which is benefit for structural drilling design.

Abstract The increasing use of automation in fishing vessels has improved trawling efficiency while directly affecting the fishing capacity and cost of fishing vessels. Among the various influencing factors, warp tension and warp length can be varied to automatically balance the retraction and release of warp control. We combined the two parameters and independently designed and developed the key equipment for fishing vessels—the warp dynamometer and meter counter—and control software. The accuracy of the warp tension and length measurements was improved. The designed equipment was applied to sea trials under different working conditions, and the test data records were exported. Next, filtered time-domain graphs of the required parameters were plotted through complex Fourier transform, first-order low-pass filtering, and inverse Fourier transform. The results of data processing using various parameters were compared and analysed to determine the variation trends of the parameters and verify the effects of their balance control. The results indicated that using an automatic balance control system that combines warp tension and warp length can be effective for the fishing operation of offshore double-deck trawlers. In addition, first-order low-pass filtering can be used to filter complex warp tension data. This study also determined the relationship between warp tension and experimental parameters such as warp length and ship speed during the release of control. After the balance control of warp tension and warp length, the net mouth area increased by 30.7% and 36.5%, respectively, and the fishing efficiency of the vessel improved considerably.

Abstract A consistent approach to the development of tuning rules for course-keeping and path-tracking PID controllers for a ship autopilot are presented. The consistency comes from the observation that for each of the controllers the controlled plant can be modelled by an integrator with inertia. In the case of the course controller, it is the well-known Nomoto model. The PID controller may be implemented in series or parallel form, the consequence of which is a 2nd or 3rd order of the system, specified by a double or triple closed-loop time constant. The new tuning rules may be an alternative to the standard ones given in [1,2]. It is shown that, whereas the reference responses for the standard and new rules are almost the same, the new rules provide better suppression of disturbances such as wind, waves or current. The parallel controller is particularly advantageous. The path-tracking PID controller can provide better tracking accuracy than the conventional PI. Simulated path-tracking trajectories generated by a cascade control system are presented. The novelty of this research is in the theory, specifically in the development of new tuning rules for the two PID autopilot controllers that improve disturbance suppression.

Abstract Marine electronically controlled (ME) two-stroke diesel engines occupy the highest market share in newly-built ships and its fuel injection system is quite different and important. Fault diagnosis in the fuel injection system is crucial to ensure the power, economy and emission of ME diesel engines, so we introduce hierarchical multiscale fluctuation dispersion entropy (HMFDE) and a support matrix machine (SMM) to realise it. We also discuss the influence of parameter changes on the entropy calculation’s accuracy and efficiency. The system simulation model is established and verified by Amesim software, and then HMFDE is used to extract a matrix from the features of a high pressure signal in a common rail pipe, under four working conditions. Compared with vectorised HMFDE, the accuracy of fault diagnosis using SMM is nearly 3% higher than that using a support vector machine (SVM). Experiments also show that the proposed method is more accurate and stable when compared with hierarchical multiscale dispersion entropy (HMDE), hierarchical dispersion entropy (HDE), multiscale fluctuation dispersion entropy (MFDE), multiscale dispersion entropy (MDE) and multiscale sample entropy (MSE). Therefore, the proposed method is more suitable for the modelling data. This research provides a new direction for matrix learning applications in fault diagnosis in marine two-stroke diesel engines.

Abstract The aim of this work is to study the influence of chamfered perforation and chamfering on the heave and pitch motion of a single floating wind power platform with an anti-heave device. Firstly, the hydrodynamic performance of a single floating body with different chamfers, or without perforation, is calculated and analysed. Secondly, the motion of a model without perforation and with 35° chamfered perforation is captured and studied in a towing tank. The results show that when the wave height is large and the period is small, the perforated device has a certain effect. When the wave height and period are small, the pitch suppression effect of chamfered perforation is more obvious than that of non-chamfered perforation. When the period and wave height are large, the heave suppression effect of non-chamfered perforation is better than that of chamfered perforation. In experimental research, the perforated floating body has a certain effect on restraining the heave and pitch of a floating body under most working conditions, and the effect of restraining the pitch is obviously better than that of restraining the heave.

Abstract The purpose of the article is to do a literature review and present own experience regarding the main causes of ophthalmic injuries in sailors and crew workers. Sailors and sea workers often use heavy equipment when working on a vessel, offshore platform or other. Using these types of tools often carries high risk of injury. They are also exposed to various chemicals, many of which are eye irritants. Ophthalmic injuries are common but rarely fatal. They can lead to vision loss, reduce the quality of life and inability to continue work. The categorized types of these injuries and included chemical, mechanical, electrical, diving related barotrauma and infections. We present the most common cause of these types of injury, situations in which they can occur, pathomechamism of eye damage, recommend a prevention method, recommend the possible first aid and present cases in which specialized treatment in a reference hospital is necessary.

Abstract The Genaveh commercial port was placed on the agenda of the Iranian PMO (ports and maritime organization) to consider economic, commercial and residential development in Bushehr province and specifically in Genaveh city. In order to increase the water capacity of the port, it is necessary to build a new harbour basin for exploitation and commercial purposes at a depth of 5 to 6 meters by extending the existing jetties arms in front of the port. This research aims to investigate the harbour basin’s tranquillity for providing vessels with safe berthing. For this purpose, three modules, namely the flow model (FM), spectral wave (SW) and Boussinesq waves model (BW) from the MIKE 21 software package, were utilized. According to the monitoring data, which is provided by the Iranian PMO, the harbour basin’s tranquillity based on the prevailing wave directions was investigated. Based on the diffraction graph in the harbour basin, the results showed that, according to the percentage of permissible diffraction recommended by different valid regulations, there is a need to modify the geometry of the breakwater arms to increase the harbour basin’s tranquillity at the port in the development plan.

Based on the diffraction graph in the harbour basin, the results showed that, according to the percentage of permissible diffraction recommended by different valid regulations, there is a need to modify the geometry of the breakwater arms to increase the harbour basin’s tranquillity at the port in the development plan.","PeriodicalId":49681,"journal":{"name":"Polish Maritime Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41681983","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
