Flows around bodies with knuckles are studied with an ultimate goal of predicting changes in resistance of a simplified-form ship with knuckles. As a first step, an analytical solution for the two-dimensional flow past a square is derived and compared with numerical results. The analysis is then extended to a very simple three-dimensional body with knuckles. Near the knuckle, the velocity poten…
The Global Maritime distress and Safety System (GMDSS) is becoming the all-embracing term for communication and data transfer between ship and shore, and ship and ship. This work brings together the knowledge required by those who want to become a qualified operator of GMDSS communications equipment.
