This chapter reviews traditional and new zooplankton sampling techniques, sample preservation, and sample analysis, and provides the sources where in-depth discussion of these topics is addressed. The net systems that have been developed over the past 100+ years, many of which are still in use today, can be categorized into eight groups: non-opening/closing nets, simple opening/closing nets, high-speed samplers, neuston samplers, planktobenthos plankton nets, closing cod-end samplers, multiple net systems, and moored plankton collection systems. Methods of sample preservation include preservation for sample enumeration and taxonomic morphological analysis, and preservation of samples for genetic analysis. Methods of analysis of zooplankton samples include determination of biomass, taxonomic composition, and size by traditional methods; and genetic analysis of zooplankton samples.

Determination of high-speed crafts’ hydrodynamic coefficients will help to analyze the dynamics of these kinds of vessels and the factors affecting their dynamic stabilities. Also, it can be useful and effective in controlling the vessel instabilities. The main purpose of this study is to determine the coefficients of longitudinal motions of a planing catamaran with and without a hydrofoil using Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes method to evaluate the foil effects on them. Determination of hydrodynamic coefficients by experimental approach is costly and requires meticulous laboratory equipment; therefore, utilizing the numerical methods and developing a virtual laboratory seem highly efficient. In this study, the numerical results for hydrodynamic coefficients of a high-speed craft are verified against Troesch’s experimental results. In the following, after determination of hydrodynamic coefficients of a planing catamaran with and without foil, the foil effects on its hydrodynamic coefficients are evaluated. The results indicate that most of the coefficients are frequency-independent especially at high frequencies.

The normal equations for the discrete Wiener filter are conventionally solved with Levinson’s algorithm. The resultant solutions are exact except for numerical roundoff. In many instances, approximate rather than exact solutions satisfy seismologists’ requirements. The so‐called “gradient” or “steepest descent” iteration techniques can be used to produce approximate filters at computing speeds significantly higher than those achievable with Levinson’s method. Moreover, gradient schemes are well suited for implementation on a digital computer provided with a floating‐point array processor (i.e., a high‐speed peripheral device designed to carry out a specific set of multiply‐and‐add operations). Levinson’s method (1947) cannot be programmed efficiently for such special‐purpose hardware, and this consideration renders the use of gradient schemes even more attractive. It is, of course, advisable to utilize a gradient algorithm which generally provides rapid convergence to the true solution. The “conjugate‐gradient” method of Hestenes (1956) is one of a family of algorithms having this property. Experimental calculations performed with real seismic data indicate that adequate filter approximations are obtainable at a fraction of the computer cost required for use of Levinson’s algorithm.

From the analysis of the available experimental results, a vibrational dependence of N2O line widths is shown, which can be explained, applying the Anderson–Tsao–Curnutte theory. But no dependence on ν of any of the molecular parameters can be deduced. In the last part, we have pointed out the effect on the determination of the quadrupole moment of assuming a nonvanishing octupole moment for N2O.

The paper presents a method for the determination of the critical minimum scantlings for small high-speed vessels. Particular attention is given to the shell plating strength for hydrodynamic impact loads. The suggested method uses an integrated approach involving assumed loads, suggested safety factors, and preferred stress-analysis method. The stress analysis uses plastic theory based partly on the works of J. Clarkson and Thein Wah. Included in the paper is a comparison of the relative structural strength of several commercial, military, and experimental hydrofoil vessels along with a few planing boats and a seaplane hull. This shows the variation of existing vessel structures and compares them to the results obtained by the suggested method. Most commercial, military, and recreational vessels exceed the minimum scantlings of the suggested method. The most significant deviation is the hull of the seaplane:
