The present paper contains the test results of a planing catamaran model. The aim of the tests was to study the effect of hydrofoil in these types of crafts. First, experiments were carried out on the bare body (i.e. without hydrofoils) to obtain non-dimensional hydrodynamic resistance coefficient versus speed. Then, the model with hydrofoils, by various locations and attack angles were subject...

Hull form selection, resistance and powering are important in designing underwater vehicle. An vehicle bare hull is based on the five parameters due to interaction between propeller hull. When they running surface condition, there will be problems likely as vessel, but main of below waterline with low freeboard. The vehicles operating high speed at a Froude Number. Therefore, wave making compon...

The powering issue of a high-speed marine vehicle with multihulls and air-cushion support is addressed, since there is an often need to quickly evaluate the effects of several configuration parameters in the early stage of the design. For component hulls with given geometry, the parameters considered include the relative locations of individual hulls and the relative volumetric ratios. Within t...

This thesis details the implementation of a three-dimensional PIV system to study the hydrodynamics of freely swimming Giant Danio (Danio aequipinnatus). Volumetric particle fields are reconstructed using synthetic aperture refocusing. The experiment is designed with minimal constraints on animal behavior to ensure that natural swimming occurs. Resultantly, the fish exhibits a variety of forwar...

OBJECTIVES Locally used doxycycline has been shown to concentrate in crevicular fluid and demonstrates a wide spectrum of activity against the periodontal pathogens. The aim of the present clinical study was to evaluate the efficacy of doxycyline hyclate 10% as an adjunct to scaling and root planing in the treatment of chronic periodontitis. MATERIAL AND METHODS 60 systemically healthy, chron...

Several advantages of multihull, such as catamaran, have been extensively discussed in the previous research. Therefore, this research focuses on developing a catamaran hull form for fish processing vessel hull. The initial stage is determining principal dimension and exploring configurations forms. existing high-speed craft catamarans adopted to determine parent model main dimensions using lin...
