An innovative tourist submarine was studied by scale-model tests in a towing tank to determine its steering capabilities and detect motion instabilities during usual manoeuvres and emergency rising. Motion instabilities are caused by the combination of t...

The volume of a gravity cage is greatly reduced under a current due to the flexible structure, which affects the growth and health of the fish. Thus, an accurate assessment of cage volume is essential to determine the number of fishes in the cage. In thi...

This paper deals with the resistance, towing, seakeeping, and open water propeller tests of an innovative tourist submarine model. Tests were performed in a 276 m long towing tank. As the submarine model is a complex structure composed of various parts a...

During the early design stage of an underwater vehicle, the correct assessment of its manoeuvrability is a crucial task. Conducting experimental tests still has high costs, especially when dealing with small vehicles characterized by low available budget...

Reducing the added resistance in waves has become a crucial aspect of today?s ship design. The added resistance in waves is traditionally considered proportional to the square of wave height. However, this assumption is believed to be only partly valid, ...

The rescue of ships in distress at sea relies mainly on rescue vessels, which includes the approaching process and the towing motion of the two ships. Ship rescue can be reduced to a two-ship problem, primarily involving the relative motion between ships...

Usually, the need for research arises when there is a discrepancy between the theoretical and practical data. For example, the RINA (Registro Italiano Navale) Rules describe two navigation areas for yachts: unrestricted navigation and a navigation area w...

The real resistance that a ship must face when it is navigating in ice floes is the key factor for knowing the necessary power and the required engine size. The aim of this work is to provide valuable data to help other research in which numerical framew...
