A rational approach to intact ship stability assessment

In this study, asymptotic and total stability of the non-linear free and forced pure rolling motions of a ship are investigated. A ship performing a rolling motion is taken as a dynamical system. Lyapunov's direct method is employed in the analysis. By generating a time-invariant Lyapunov function, conditions and the domain of asymptotic stability are obtained for free rolling motion. Results of the work on “boundedness” and “uniform boundedness” of the solutions of the equation of forced rolling motion, done by Özkan (1977), that is, conditions of total (practical) stability and its domain in the phase-plane are given and illustrated.

Numerical simulation of ship stability for dynamic environment

The prediction of ship stability during the early stages of design is very important from the point of vessel’s safety. Out of the six motions of a ship, the critical motion leading to capsize of a vessel is the rolling motion. In the present study, particular attention is paid to the performance of a ship in beam sea. The linear ship response in waves is evaluated using strip theory. Critical condition in the rolling motion of a ship is when it is subjected to synchronous beam waves. In this paper, a nonlinear approach has been tried to predict the roll response of a vessel. Various representations of damping and restoring terms found in the literature are investigated. A parametric investigation is undertaken to identify the effect of a number of key parameters like wave amplitude, wave frequency, metacentric height, etc.     

An experimental study of motion behaviour with an intact and damaged Ro-Ro ship model

Six degrees of freedom motion response tests of a Ro-Ro model have been carried out in regular waves for intact and damaged conditions. The stationary model was tested in different wave heights and wave frequencies for the head, beam and stern quartering seas in order to explore the effect of damage and varying wave heights on the motion responses of the model. Analysis of the results indicates that damage has an adverse effect on the motion responses of the model depending upon the directionality of the waves and frequency range applied.     

A review of vortex shedding research and its application

This paper is a review of research work with cylinders in steady currents. The emphasis is mainly on cylinders in water, particularly the research undertaken at BHRA and its general application. Comparisons are made with the work of other authors for both water and air flow and over 60 references are reviewed. The mechanisms of flow-excited oscillations are discussed for isolated vertical and inclined cylinders. The effects of length/diameter ratio, cylinder surface roughness and channel blockage are presented. Wake interactions caused by cylinder-cylinder and cylinder-splitter arrangements are detailed. The results of tests with pane and three-dimensional frames are described and quantified in terms of isolated cylinder data.The paper closes with a section describing methods of avoiding oscillations by calculation at the design stage or by the use of clamp-on devices for completed structures in water flow.     

Zooplankton research off Peru: A review

A review of zooplankton studies conducted in Peruvian marine waters is given. After a short history of the development of zooplankton research off Peru, we review zooplankton methodology, taxonomy, biodiversity, spatial distribution, seasonal and interannual variability, trophodynamics, secondary production, and modelling. We review studies on several micro-, meso-, macro-, and meroplankton groups, and give a species list from both published and unpublished reports. Three regional zooplankton groups have been identified: (1) a continental shelf group dominated by Acartia tonsa and Centropages brachiatus; (2) a continental slope group characterized by siphonophores, bivalves, foraminifera and radiolaria; (3) and a species-rich oceanic group. The highest zooplankton abundances and biomasses were often found between 4–6°S and 14–16°S, where continental shelves are narrow. Species composition changes with distance from the shore. Species composition and biomass also vary strongly on short time scales due to advection, peaks of larval production, trophic interactions, and community succession. The relation of zooplankton to climatic variability (ENSO and multi-decadal) and fish stocks is discussed in the context of ecological regime shifts. An intermediate upwelling hypothesis is proposed, based on the negative effects of low upwelling intensity in summer or extremely strong and enduring winter upwelling on zooplankton abundance off Peru. According to this hypothesis, intermediate upwelling creates an optimal environmental window for zooplankton communities. Finally, we highlight important knowledge gaps that warrant attention in future.     

水域富营养化研究进展

随着工业化程度的提高、城市化进程的加快和世界人口的不断增加,人类活动越来越频繁和深刻地影响着海洋环境。其中,近海水域富营养化已经成为沿海国家的一个重要的水环境问题。在大多数水生态系统中,限制浮游植物生长的主要营养元素是N和P。由于人类活动的影响,大量富含N、P的有机物和污水排入海湾、河口和沿岸水域,导致浮游植物在适宜的光温条件下异常繁殖,初级生产力(有机碳)急剧增加,水域呈现富营养化特征。

新生代气候变冷机制研究进展

深海氧同位素记录揭示新生代以来全球气候呈整体变冷趋势,南北两极先后发育冰盖,地球由温室气候变为冰室气候,但是其变冷机制仍不明确。大气CO2浓度降低和大洋环流模式改变均被认为与新生代气候变冷密切相关,但目前对两者的作用还未达成统一的认识,由此存在各种假说,如BLAG假说、高原隆升-风化假说、构造隆升-碳埋藏假说、火山铁肥效应和岛弧隆升-风化假说及海道开合假说等,用以解释新生代全球变冷。围绕新生代气候变冷机制方面的争论,评述了过去近几十年来相关研究的进展和存在的问题,讨论了不同机制对新生代气候变化的影响,并提出未来需要加强的研究重点：建立准确的新生代大气CO2浓度演变序列、建立更加准确的地球内部排气和青藏高原隆升及海道开合时刻表、建立完善的风化指标体系、加强火山作用及其大洋生物地球化学效应的研究。
