Book Synopsis ASD Tugs: Thrust and Azimuth by : Jeff Slesinger
Download or read book ASD Tugs: Thrust and Azimuth written by Jeff Slesinger and published by Cornell Maritime Press/Tidewater Publishers. This book was released on 2019-05-28 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Azimuthing Stern Drive (ASD) tug or towboat is a high-performance vessel that is responsive, quick to maneuver and extremely powerful. In the hands of a skilled operator maneuvering these vessels looks effortless and seamless--smoothly spinning around, nimbly shifting position, having pinpoint control, all while the operator's hands move the control handles instinctively and naturally. This book takes the reader through an efficient learning sequence leading to that level of proficiency. d104, illustrations and practice drills create a clear understanding of ASD maneuvering principles and assist the reader in acquiring the intuitive hands-on feel required to operate these vessels. Each chapter covers a basic maneuvering element--steering, managing speed, stopping, hovering, lateral movement--and their application to light boat, barge and ship handling. This book is the first step for a professional mariner adding a new competency to his or her art of towing--driving a Z-drive.
Book Synopsis Marine Simulation and Ship Manoeuvrability by : M.S. Chislett
Download or read book Marine Simulation and Ship Manoeuvrability written by M.S. Chislett and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-10-01 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Real-time, interactive ship simulators limped onto the scene, in the wake of flight simulators, some years ago. The maritime industries have a long history of conservatism, but this is now changing rapidly. The information age has also swept over ships and shipping, and has been taken to heart to such an extent that, for example, flight simulators now cooperate with ship simulators and import useful new concepts and methodologies. The more than 50 papers contained in this book show what and why. Although traditionally conservative, the marine world is also traditionally international and this has not changed. The papers in the book are by leading authors from all over the world and provide a detailed snap-shot of the rapidly advancing state-of-the-art, together with pointers to the future. The overall theme of MARSIM '96 and therefore also of this book is: Vessel manouevrability and marine simulation research, training and assessment, and includes original papers on topics such as bridge resource management, distant learning and simulators coupled via The Internet, virtual reality, neural networks, rudder-propeller hydrodynamics, prime mover models, squat in shallow water, and many more.

Download or read book Harbour tug written by Stefan Thienel and published by Verlag für Technik und Handwerk. This book was released on with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They are the small strong ships without which the huge freighters cannot get into the harbour: Harbour tugs. Their versatility and power make them popular replica objects for model builders time and again. In this book, harbour tug specialist Stefan Thienel describes the special features of the great prototypes - and that is far more than just pure power. Among other things, the special drive systems, and the sophisticated winches with which the tugs are equipped to perform their tasks are described here in detail. The construction of a modern harbour tug as a highly detailed model then rounds off this book. The author guides the reader from the construction of the hull, through the numerous details, to the ageing, so that the model acquires the typical working ship character. An absolute standard work - not only for harbour tug fans! From the content: • Development of tugboat navigation • Original technology • Types of tugs • Tug design • Towing manoeuvres • The model • Tractor hull • Drive concepts • Towing winch and towing hook • Superstructure and interior • Paintwork and ageing • Electrics and electronics • Driving manoeuvres

The topics covered by the contributions include: dynamics of vessels in collision and grounding; collision and grounding in Arctic conditions; collision and grounding statistics and measures of the probability of incidents; risk assessment of collision and grounding; measures for reduction of collision and grounding, machine learning methods for the evaluation of probabilistic collision and grounding risk; new designs for improvement of structural resistance to collisions; analysis of ultimate strength of damaged ship structures; design of buffer bows to reduce collision consequences; innovative navigation systems for safer sea transportation, collision between ships and offshore structures; collision between ships and fixed or floating bridges, collision and grounding experiments; properties of materials under impact loadings; residual strength of damaged ships and offshore structures; hull girder response of ships under severe dynamic loadings. The book is aimed at naval architects, marine engineers and scientists. The ICCGS conferences aim to present state-of-the-art methods for analysis and design against collision and grounding of ships, collisions between ships and icebergs, offshore structures, bridges, submerged tunnels and waterfront structures. Previous conferences were held in: San Francisco, USA in 1996; Copenhagen, Denmark in 2001; Tokyo, Japan in 2004; Hamburg, Germany in 2007; Helsinki, Finland in 2010; Trondheim, Norway in 2013; Ulsan, South Korea in 2016, and Lisbon, Portugal in 2019.

This book was released on 2007-03-19 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Svitzer Marine operates 41 tugs in the UK and provides services in seven ports and six terminals; Adsteam provides harbour and terminal towage services in six of the UK's major deep-water ports and adjacent waterways. This report on the proposed acquisition of Adsteam by Svitzer concludes that the only significant lessening of competition would occur at Liverpool, where Svitzer should be required to divest either the Adsteam or Svitzer operation to a suitable purchaser. As well as the report and findings, this publication contains: financial information on the two companies; industry background; information on entry conditions into local markets; an analysis of Svitzer and Adsteam prices and discounts; sales and market share in Liverpool.
