In the poster that accompanied this article the centre panel, entitled 'Structural and functional features' contains the sub-panel 'Energy coupling' in which the bottom structure should not be labelled 'E1P open' but 'E2P open'.

Interest in the seakeeping loads of vessels has increased dramatically in recent years. In current design practice, methods for predicting seakeeping motions and loads are mainly in two categories, strip theory methods and 3Dpanel methods. Methods based on strip theory provide reasonable motion prediction and are computationally efficient. However, many strip theory methods provide only hull gi...

Introduction: Natural materials are more efficient and attractive than synthetic materials. In this study, the sound absorption behavior by natural kenaf composite and Micro-Perforated Panel (MPP) at low and medium frequency region was investigated. Material and Methods: Initially, the results of kenaf fibers with a thickness of 10 mm were validated by the Finite Element Method (FEM) based on ...

Interior noise and sonic fatigue are important issues in the development and design of advanced subsonic and supersonic aircraft. Conventional aircraft typically employ passive treatments, such as constrained layer damping and acoustic absorption materials, to reduce the structural response and resulting acoustic levels in the aircraft interior. These techniques require signi cant addition of m...

(Spatial) panel data are routinely modelled in discrete time (DT). However, there are compelling arguments for continuous time (CT) modelling of (spatial) panel data. Particularly, most social processes evolve in CT, so that statistical analysis in DT is an oversimplification, gives an incomplete representation of reality and may lead to misinterpretation of estimation results. The most compell...
