Good Agreement

The hydrodynamic characteristics of the planing hulls in particular at the planing regime are completely different from the conventional hull forms and the determination of these characteristics is more complicated. In the present study, calm water hydrodynamic characteristics of planing hulls are investigated using a hybrid method. The hybrid method combines the dynamic trim and sinkage from the Zarnick approach with the Savitsky method in order to calculate the total resistance of the planing hull. Since the obtained dynamic trim and sinkage values by using the original Zarnick approach are not in good agreement with experimental data, an improvement is applied to the hybrid method using a reduction function proposed by Garme. The numerical results obtained by the hybrid and improved hybrid method are compared with each other and available experimental data. The results indicate that the improved hybrid method gives better results compared to the hybrid method, especially for the dynamic trim and resistance. Although the results have some discrepancies with experimental data in terms of resistance, trim and sinkage, the improved hybrid method becomes appealing particularly for the preliminary design stage of the planing hulls.

The dynamic and hydrodynamic properties of the pad in the fluid pivot journal bearing are investigated in this paper. Preload coefficients, recess area, and size gap, which were selected as input parameters to investigate, are important parameters of fluid pivot journal bearing. The pad’s pendulum angle, lubricant oil flow through the gap, and recess pressure which characterizes the squeeze film damper were investigated with different preload coefficients, recess area, and gap sizes. The computational models were established and numerical methods were used to determine the equilibrium position of the shaft-bearing system. Since then, the pendulum angle of the pad, liquid flow, and recess pressure were determined by different eccentricities.

Transportation Route

In view of the expansion and directional change mechanisms of Yangtze River water diluted with sea water in the shelf region (also known as Changjiang diluted water [CDW]) during summer and autumn, a three-dimensional hydrodynamic model of the Yangtze River Estuary (YRE) and its adjacent waters was established based on the Finite Volume Community Ocean Model (FVCOM). Compared with the measured data, the model accurately simulates the hydrodynamic characteristics of the YRE. On that basis, the influence of the expansion patterns of the CDW in both summer and autumn was studied. It was found that, in 2019, the CDW expanded to the northeast in the summer and to the southeast in the autumn, and that the route of the CDW is mainly controlled by the wind, not the runoff. Current seasonal winds also change the transportation route of the CDW by affecting its hydrodynamic field. Typhoons are frequent in both summer and autumn, causing abnormalities in both the transportation route and expansion of the CDW. During a typhoon, a large amount of the CDW is transported in a continuous and abnormal manner, accelerating the path turning of the CDW. This paper enhances the existing theoretical research of the CDW and provides a reference with respect to the expansion of diluted water all over the world.
