High speed craft often operate in a regime in which they are supported partially by hydrostatic forces and partially by forces of dynamic origin. This transitional regime has received sparse attention in the past, especially in relation to the early stages of design. This paper seeks to correct this deficiency by estimating the component parts of the vertical force on a vessel in the transitional regime. Force values and locations are found by the use of modern CAD and hydrostatics software, combined with model test data. This information is then used in a discussion of stability in the transitional mode.

Tubular member of jacket platform has the possibility of being struck by the service ship under a lateral impact scenario. An analytical theoretical method has been proposed to predict the structural deformation and the resistance force. This paper addresses a study on the verifications for this analytical method, through numerical simulation and model test methods. The analytical method was proposed based on a new structural sectional deformation mode, which considers both of the local denting and global bending deformation. The analytical method is briefly introduced. The verification work includes three steps. Firstly, a model test was conducted, on purpose of obtaining the structural deformation and the resistance force under the lateral impact scenario when a model tubular member was struck by a wedge hammer. In the test, the tubular member was fixed at both ends and the wedge hammer hit at its middle position. A high speed camera was used to record the instantaneous motion track of the hammer, and with the motion track data, the striking force and the indentation can be obtained. Then, a curve of impact force vs. indentation in time series was got. Secondly, the numerical simulations were conducted to simulate the corresponding impact scenario. The code LS_DYNA was used. The curve of impact force vs. indentation was also obtained. Finally, a comparison study was made, to verify the accuracy of the analytical theoretical model, and it is proved that the curves match well. Furthermore, four more cases were conducted by numerical simulations, to assess the feasibility of the analytical method on prototype scantling using for the tubular member of jacket platform.

Modern power catamarans of planing type are investigated. Data are presented about small high-speed catamarans (40 ft< LOA < 100 ft) which have seen oceanographic, survey, excursion and fishing service. A table of characteristics of recently constructed catamarans is included. Some results and observations based on extensive parametric studies of asymmetrical and symmetrical planing catamaran hulls are included. Curves of R/D versus speed for various displacements, hull spacings and hull forms are presented. An attempt is made to relate size, weight, power and performance by comparing known performance to model test data. Considerations involved in the design of catamarans such as structural strength, powering, stability, handling peculiarities and weight criticality are discussed. Methods of predicting weight, cost and considerations for trade-off analyses are presented.

This study aims to produce the Practical KIT along with its devices that are effectively used as learning media to train students SPS on the sub material of the Reaction Rate Law. The method used in this study is Research and Development design. The research instrument used consisted of a sheet of pre-test and post-test. Data analysis was carried out in descriptive quantitative to determine the effectiveness of Practical KIT along with the devices developed. The media is said to be effective if it meets 2 requirements, namely the percentage of classical completeness <85% and N-gain value <0.3. The developed media has been declared effective as indicated by the increase in the value of cognitive learning outcomes in the "Medium" and "High" categories with 100% classical completeness, an increase in the value of science process skills of students after using the Practical KIT media. "With classical completeness reaching 91.67%.

In a large capacity tangentially fired boiler, the final reheater tubing sustained abnormal oxidation and localized excessive metal wastage in a short time of the unit operation. The root causes of the problem are identified by test data analysis. The test data indicated that the reheater tubing metal temperatures in the affected areas exceeded the recommended limit of the metal oxidation temperature due to higher than expected local gas temperatures and velocities. A soot-blower facing the overheated portion of the reheater leading tubes accelerated the process of metal wastage by periodically removing the oxide layer. The configuration of the boiler internals upstream of the reheater section is found to be the main cause of the localized overheating. Side-to-side gas flow/temperature stratification due to tangential firing contributed to a lesser degree to the problem. The results and conclusions presented in this paper should be a beneficial guide to the designer of large capacity boilers.
