Abstract:
Abstract Nonhost angiosperm volatiles (NAV) and verbenone were tested for their ability to protect individual ponderosa pines, Pinus ponderosa Dougl. ex. Laws., from attack by western pine beetle (WPB), Dendroctonus brevicomis LeConte, and red turpentine beetle (RTB), Dendroctonus valens LeConte (Coleoptera: Curculionidae, Scolytinae). A combination of (−)-verbenone and eight NAVs [benzyl alcohol, benzaldehyde, guaiacol, nonanal, salicylaldehyde, (E)-2-hexenal, (E)-2-hexen-1-ol, and (Z)-2-hexen-1-ol] (NAVV) significantly reduced the density of WPB attacks and WPB successful attacks on attractant-baited trees. A significantly higher percentage of pitchouts (unsuccessful WPB attacks) occurred on NAVV-treated trees during two of three sample dates. In addition, significantly fewer RTB attacks were observed on NAVV-treated trees during all sampling dates. The application of NAVV to individual ponderosa pines significantly reduced tree mortality, with only 4 of 30 attractant-baited trees dying from bark beetle attack while 50% mortality (15/30) was observed in the untreated, baited control. To our knowledge, this is the first report establishing the effectiveness of NAVs and verbenone for protecting individual ponderosa pines from WPB attack.

Abstract:
Abstract There are many explanations for the victory of the United States against the Japanese at the Battle of Midway on June 4, 1942. Mistakes made by the Japanese certainly factored in the outcome and the United States also had certain advantages. However, an important if not sufficient explanation for the US victory is the pre-war preparation of the US Navy during peacetime. Designed by Ed Heinemann at Douglas Aircraft in El Segundo, California, from 1934 until 1938, the first Dauntless planes were delivered to the navy in 1940, well in advance of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the moment which is conventionally regarded as the US entry into the war. The pilots of the Dauntless, as I will show in this essay, were much the same; they too were the product of a peacetime Navy.

Abstract:
This article provides an interpretation of Josef Vilsmaier's two-part television feature film, Die Gustloff (2008), which depicts the sinking of that ship in January 1945. It argues that Vilsmaier, at the expense of historical fact, pins blame for the fateful decisions that led to the ship being vulnerable to attack on the Navy, while simultaneously seeking to exculpate and even glorify the Merchant Navy representatives on board. Die Gustloff seeks to distinguish between a “bad” captain and a “good” one, between hard-hearted military indifference and uncorrupted civilian decency in the face of the plight of German refugees. Generally, in its portrayal of the civilian as a realm untainted by Nazism, it seeks to resist trends in contemporary historiography that show such distinctions to be untenable. It is thus deeply revisionist in character, and, in many ways, represents the nadir of the “Germans as victims” trend in contemporary German culture.

Salamis’ eastern side is separated from the coast of ATTICA by a curved channel less than a mile wide in the narrows, and it was there that the crucial sea battle of the PERSIAN WARS was fought in late summer of 480 B.c., after the invading army of the Persian king XERXES had overrun northern and central Greece. The allied Greek victory at Salamis broke the Persian navy and stopped the invasion, opening the way for the Greeks’ final land-victory, at PLATAEA, the following summer.

Abstract:
This introductory chapter considers the implications of the aftermath of the Persian Wars. Prior to Sparta's defeat of the Persian army, there was every reason to suppose that the Greek resistance would collapse and that Hellas would soon fall. When the dust had settled, however, it gradually dawned on all concerned that affairs had undergone a decisive change; and everyone in and on the periphery of the Mediterranean world began to reassess. That such a turn of events could take place—that a ragtag navy and militia, supplied by tiny communities hitherto best known for their mutual hostility, should annihilate an armada greater than any the world had ever known—this was then and remains today both a wonder and an occasion for rumination. But this chapter shows that such an incredible outcome had its own issues. The unity displayed by the Hellenes during the war was unprecedented, after all. Whether or not this alliance would hold after the war, however, became a great cause for concern for those living in the postwar world.

Abstract:
Under the leadership of Alfred von Tirpitz, the German navy concentrated on building a battle fleet based in the North Sea rather than cruisers designed for operations in distant waters. This has led many historians to assume that commerce warfare (Handelskrieg) played no real part in German preparations for war against Britain before 1914. This chapter disputes this analysis. It shows that Germany’s naval planners in the Admiralstab believed that by converting merchant ships into auxiliary cruisers and using them to attack British commerce on the high seas the German navy would be able to cause considerable damage to British shipping and so force the Royal Navy to divert forces from the main theatre of war to distant oceans. It goes on to examine the reality of this plan during the First World War.

Abstract:
In the first months of 1942, the navy exerted tight control over its war correspondents. While allowing them access to ships, it placed so many restrictions on what they could write about that a group of them, led by Robert Casey of the Chicago Daily News, began to complain vociferously. Stanley Johnston of the Chicago Tribune ultimately became the biggest troublemaker. After escaping from the USS Lexington before it sank during the Battle of the Coral Sea, Johnston used the slow journey home not only to write about this experience but also to learn that the navy had received advanced knowledge of the Japanese attack on Midway. His stories on both battles created a major sensation. With the navy convinced that the Tribune had divulged its secret codebreaking operation, the Roosevelt administration even made a failed bid to prosecute it under the Espionage Act.

It paints a complex picture of the period, analysing the attack on Berriby; the Mexican-American War; the legal issues that plagued the US Army; the US Navy’s commercial goals; the American approach to the Slave Trade; and the dominance of the Royal Navy in the region. It draws the same conclusion as the previous chapter, namely that Britain and the US grew further mistrustful of one another due to their conflicting agendas regarding their commercial interests in West Africa.

Abstract:
The U.S. Navy has been interested in podded propulsion for over 20 years and has conducted model experiments on several designs in order to define their powering performance and other hydrodynamic characteristics. The model test drag data on several of these designs are analyzed and presented in terms of drag coefficient and pod residuary resistance. The model powering tests form a data base for estimating thrust deduction and wake fraction. Podded propulsion frees the designer from the constraints imposed by the traditional propeller support arrangements to offer advantages with regard to better hull design for lower resistance, improved propeller inflow, and more efficient propellers. Compared to the traditional design, some podded designs are predicted to reduce the delivered power at the propeller by as much as 20%. The design objectives, design constraints and reasons for improved performance are discussed for each of the podded designs that are presented.

Full text
Abstract:
The US Nav has developed a real-time multi-ship ship motion forecasting system which combines forecast wave conditions with ship motion simulations to produce a prediction of the relative motions between two ships operating in a skin-to-skin configuration. The system utilizes two different simulation methods for predicting ship motions: MotionSim and Reduced Order Model (ROM) based on AEGIR. MotionSim is a fast three-dimensional panel method that is used to estimate the Response Amplitude Operators (RAOs) necessary for multi-ship motion predictions. The ROM works to maximize the accuracy of high fidelity ship motion prediction methods while maintaining the computational speed required for real-time forecasting. A model scale experiment was performed in 2015 on two Navy ships conventionally moored together. The predicted relative ship motions from MotionSim and ROM were compared to the model data using three different metrics: RMS (root mean square) ratio, correlation coefficient, and average angle measurement (AAM).This paper provides an overview of the two methods for predicting the multi-ship motions, a description of the model test, challenges faced during testing, and a discussion on the methodology of the evaluation and the results of each code correlation.

Full text
Abstract:
The idea of an adjustment to model test procedures in order to improve ship powering predictions was initially introduced many years ago as a roughness allowance because it was recognized that the basic methodology involved in predicting power from model tests yields powering estimates for ships whose hulls are smooth. Thus an increment to the smooth ship resistance was added to account for the ships’ roughness and this increment was called the roughness allowance. Later on it was recognized that the difference between the predicted and measured power was due to roughness as well as other factors and the concept of a correlation allowance coefficient designated by the symbol CA was developed for engineering and design purposes in order to obtain the most accurate ship powering predictions. The value of the correlation allowance for a specific ship is determined from the analysis of ship and model powering data. The correlation allowances for specific ships forms a database or experience factor that helps guide the powering prediction for a proposed new design. In the years following WWII, the U.S. Navy ships still had riveted hull plating or a combination of riveted and welded plating and many ships used a hot plastic finish which resulted in a relatively rough ship hull. Paints with smoother finishes were just being introduced. Hadler et al [1] discussed the impact of paint type and construction method on CA and showed that in the 20 years leading up to 1960 there was a general decrease in the CA. It was common practice at the time to assume a constant value of CA equal to 0.0005 for all ship sizes. By the early 1980' s the common ship construction practice was an all welded ship with a relatively smooth paint finish such as the Navy Milspec vinyl. The Navy ship-model correlation data was reassessed and summarized by Hagen et al [2]. The earlier data with hot plastic 205 were purposefully disregarded and a correlation allowance instruction which is a function of ship length, see Fig. 1 , was issued by Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) [3] and defined for U.S. Navy powering predictions according to the standard David Taylor Model Basin (DTMB) powering prediction method documented by Grant and Wilson [4] . The primary purpose of this paper is to examine the ship-model correlation data gathered since the early 1980' s and to see if there is a need to modify the NAVSEA CA curve. Other purposes are to examine the accuracy of the RPM prediction using the David Taylor Powering Prediction method, and to discover if there are any ship or model characteristics in addition to length that could influence the selection of CA.

Abstract:
Abstract U.S. Navy marine gas turbine engines serve as primarye and auxiliary power sources for several current classes of ships. Early observations noted in the 1960s and 1970s revealed severe corrosion attack on the first stage blade and vane components of a shipboard marine gas turbine engine that caused engine failure after only several hundred hours. In gas turbine development, there is always a drive and need to enhance the performance and life of engines. The virtues of using Ni-base superalloys in hot-section components has been well recognized and practiced as a means of substantial increase in turbine-inlet temperature, resulting in improvements in thermal efficiency, durability, and performance of engines. The USN shipboard environment (the marine environment) is high in salt laden air and water, coupled with air and fuel sulfur species that cause aggressive corrosion in gas turbine hot sections. Materials that can function in this environment are considered to be “Marinized”. Higher engine power density and pressure ratios for new engine designs will increase maximum blade, vane, and rotor metal temperatures from a mainly Low Temperature Hot Corrosion (LTHC) regime into both the High Temperature Hot Corrosion (HTHC) and Oxidation Corrosion regions. It is expected that future increased surface combatant loads and operational changes will require increased gas turbine operating temperatures and change the associated operating environment to one where Type I and Type II hot corrosion AND oxidation will be prevalent in newly anticipated operational profiles. The advanced gas turbine upgrade package will include better corrosion and oxidation resistant capability and/or higher temperature capable materials and their associated component overhaul methodologies. New materials need to be created and developed for use in more aggressive environments and higher temperature operations. The main cause of the shorter time between overhauls is the materials deterioration of the engine components associated with the hot section of the engine, e.g. turbine airfoils. The deterioration mechanisms are hot corrosion, with Type 1 hot corrosion mechanism becoming operative at the higher temperatures. The goal of this paper is to evaluate methods to enable running the engine at high power while getting back to the longer mean time between overhauls. The method to achieve the longer time is to evaluate and propose for implementation materials, which can withstand the higher temperatures and at the same time mitigate the operative corrosion mechanisms associated with marine environments.

Abstract:
This paper is a summary of 35 years experience from maintenance, overhaul and repair of the ROLLS-ROYCE Marine PROTEUS Gas Turbine in the Swedish Navy. The 54 installed PROTEUS Gas Turbines in 18 ships have accumulated nearly 300 000 running hours. The reliability has steadily improved thanks to careful monitoring and intensive improvement programs. The initial, less than 500 hours average between engine removals has been extended to nearly 3000 hours as of today. Also the number of catastrophic engine failures has decreased. Although the Spare Parts prices and the Labor Costs per hour have increased over the years the maintenance cost per fired Gas Turbine hour has decreased. The paper describes the technical and economical aspects together with the cost reducing efforts. The information derives from the Swedish Navy Maintenance and Failure Reporting System, named “MARIS”, and from the VOLVO overhaul workshop annual technical and economical activity report.

In addition, the Navy has fit PC-13 with a flap in order to demonstrate performance prior to the retrofit of the entire PC-1 class. Full scale trials on the PC-13 are presently being conducted. An intensive investigation is underway to quantify the energy savings with stern flaps on the DD-963 and CG-47 class ships. Numerous model tests have been performed to explore the benefits of stern flaps on larger, sealift type ships. The physical mechanisms that account for the improved performance due to a flap are discussed. Powering reductions on the order of 6 to 8 % at cruise and maximum speeds have been measured at model scale. Limited full scale trials indicate that the improvement due to the flap on the full scale ship is greater than the improvement measured at model scale. Results from twelve different model test programs are presented, including predictions of overall energy savings, increased maximum speed, and decreased power at cruise speed. General guidance for evaluating the potential benefit of a stern flap on a new design is provided.

Abstract:
This paper covers 35 years of operation with the ROLLS-ROYCE Marine PROTEUS Gas Turbine in the Swedish Navy SPICA class Torpedo Boats and the NORRKÖPING class Missile Boats. 54 installed PROTEUS Gas Turbines in 18 boats have accumulated nearly 300 000 running hours. The service is intended to continue until year 2010. The paper describes: • Experience from operation. • Technical problems and their solutions. • Major modifications. • Life extension program. • Problem areas. • The future of the PROTEUS within Swedish Navy. The Swedish Navy operation of PROTEUS engines in fast surface attack ships is demanding and the environment is harsh. This causes great strain to the entire machinery. With the Gas Turbine Propulsion new Ship maneuvering technique had to be developed and adopted. Initial installation and engine problems had to be cured. Throughout the years several technical problems have turned up and been solved. The largest number or serious engine damages has been Power degradation and broken Compressor or burnt Turbine Blades and Vanes. Mainly as a result of a fouled Compressor, incorrect Bleed Valve setting or corrosion. Next largest engine problem has been vibration. In the early days engine related but nowadays generated by the installation or other equipment in the ship. All efforts laid down by involved personnel has greatly contributed to improve the reliability of the engine and its installation. New problems will certainly show up by age and changed operational procedures, thus calling for a continued improvement work. Spare parts accessibility will be the limiting factor for future PROTEUS operation. Therefore cooperation with ROLLS-ROYCE and the remaining operators in Spare Parts production and for exchange of Spare Parts is essential.

Abstract:
The driving technical requirements for new and modern replacements of the wave making systems at the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock Division (NSWCCD) are discussed. Added capabilities of these new systems are presented with respect to both current and future United States Navy and Marine Corps requirements in terms of seakeeping, dynamic stability, wave-induced loads, and ride quality. The case is made that it is now time for the United States Navy to upgrade its testing capabilities in order to meet the more demanding operational requirements foreseen for future ships. Added capability includes both Operational and Technical. It is necessary to maintain the current costs of maintenance and operation while improving the availability and reducing the time required to create new test wave profiles. By going from the current pneumatic to a segmented type flap wavemaker, it has been demonstrated that these operational goals will be met. Added wave modeling capability is driven by more limited Naval resources projected to be available in the future - requiring both man and machine to do more for longer periods of time and in more severe sea conditions. The impact of this is already being seen in the model testing currently performed, with increased emphasis being placed on dynamic stability. In order to meet the future needs to evaluate seakeeping, including dynamic stability, wave-induced loads and ride quality new wave making capabilities are required. These capabilities include modeling of the directionality of the waves, having the ability to reproduce and encounter discrete wave events in a deterministic way, and improving upon the control and quality of the generated wave profiles.

Abstract:
A need exists to modernize undergraduate pilot training procedures and resources to better address the emergence of new fighter/attack bomber and transport aircraft such as the ATF, A-12, B-1, B-2, C-17 and ATT. The current U.S. training resources consist of the T-37/T-38 aircraft for the Air Force and the T-45, which will replace the T-2C and the TA-4J, in the U.S. Navy pilot training program. The T-37 and T-38 aircraft are of the 1950s-1960s vintage and do not have the flying qualities, sustained G and Mach capability, and cockpit technologies consistent with now-emerging fighter/attack aircraft. The disparity in aircraft agility between today’s (and tomorrow’s) front line aircraft and trainers is illustrated in Fig. 1.
