STUDY ON HYDRODYNAMIC FORCES ACTING ON TANKER HULL WITH CONSIDERATION OF VARIOUS VERTICAL CENTERS OF GRAVITY IN DRIFT TEST

Study on Hydrodynamic Forces Acting on Tanker Hull with Consideration of Various Vertical Centers of Gravity in Drift Test

An investigation was conducted to determine whether the changes in the maneuvering forces and moments acting on a hull could be affected by changing the vertical center of gravity (VCG) of a tanker.The changes in the hydrodynamic forces and moment acting on a hull according to the restraint conditions of motion were examined using CFD for cases whe

Age, sex, and climate factors show different effects on survival of three different bat species in a woodland bat community

1.Bats are the second largest mammalian Order and important providers of ecosystem services including insect pest control, pollination and seed dispersal.Yet, the lack of basic information on their demographic rates hampers detecting changes in population trends, and thus conservation efforts.2.The elusive life-styles, that leads to imperfect and b
