Abstract:
Abstract Due to persistent rumours of wooden planks from a ‘Viking Ship’ in the Lejre Stream (Lejre Å) running in the Valley of Lejre (Lejre Ådal) and near the dynastic residence of Lejre (the Scyldings’ palace), archaeologists have investigated the area in the 1980s. The negative result has never been the subject of any publication so far, let alone a closer examination of what the background of these rumours might be. This paper aims to present the investigation and its context. Furthermore, it sums up our knowledge about the Lejre Stream, which concludes that it was not a navigable waterway in the Late Iron Age. This investigation also suggests that the so-called ‘ship planks’ represent another wooden structure than a Viking ship, either a ford or a watermill. Finally, it is suggested on the basis of the investigation that the area of the dynastic residence of Lejre would be an ideal place to search for early watermill technology.

Abstract:
This is a curatorial essay in which the author explains his research and process for the conception and production of everything slackens in a wreck, a visual arts exhibition running at the Ford Foundation Gallery in New York from June to September 2022. Gosine elaborates his thinking about the title of the exhibition, which is taken from a Khal Torabully poem, and explains the relevance of and his intrigue with the four artists whose works comprise the exhibition: Wendy Nanan (Trinidad and Tobago), Margaret Chen (Jamaica/Canada), Andrea Chung (Jamaica/United States), and Kelly Sinnapah Mary (Guadeloupe). Each of the four women is a descendant of indentured workers who traveled to the Caribbean in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and for each this history is a reference point in her practice. Gosine proposes a consideration of the Americas as a consequence of three wreckages: the ship landings of European colonizers and the arriving ships of enslaved and, later, indentured peoples.

Abstract:
Of his nineteen years as a sailor, from 1874 to 1894, Joseph Conrad actually worked on ships for ten years and eight months, of which just over eight years were spent at sea, including nine months as a passenger (Najder 161–62). During these nomadic years, London was the place to which he returned again and again to seek his next berth, staying in a series of sailors’ homes, lodgings, and boarding houses. How did he spend his time, a single man with no family and few friends, whose main occupation was waiting? He recalled, in the preface toThe Secret Agent, “solitary and nocturnal walks all over London in my early days” (7). Ford Madox Ford says that Conrad knew all the bars around Fenchurch Street (which links the financial centre of the City of London to Whitechapel and the East End) from his days of waiting for a ship. Returning to the area later in life, according to Ford's slightly improbable memory, he “became at once the city-man gentleman-adventurer with an eye for a skirt,” who “could tell you where every husky earringed fellow with a blue, white-spotted handkerchief under his arm was going to. . . .” (Joseph Conrad116, 117). The reality of these London sojourns was probably less romantic, most of the time. But there was one place where a sailor ashore, without much money, could always go for company and entertainment: the music-hall.

Abstract:
During Full Ship Shock Trials (FSSTs), a ship is subjected to a series of underwater detonations conducted at various distances to assess its ability to withstand shock waves that simulate near misses during combat. In the summer of 2021, the US Navy successfully conducted a FSST of the USS Gerald R. Ford, in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Jacksonville, FL. We collected passive acoustic recordings during each of the three underwater detonations, using an array of bottom-moored autonomous underwater recorders—Rockhoppers and SoundTraps—that were deployed at 15 vantage positions around the three sites. While the acoustic recordings of the underwater detonations were aimed at providing the Naval Sea Systems Command valuable data for updating their underwater acoustic propagation models, it also provided opportunistic data to assess possible impacts on prevailing biota. Our analyses of the recordings included an assessment of the recorded soundscape pre- and post-trial and a characterization of relative vocal activity by large faunal groups (baleen whales, delphinids, and fish). The results provide an insight into behavioral changes in response to the underwater detonations at different distances from the detonation sites as well as valuable information for improving impact mitigation considerations during future FSSTs.

Abstract:
The main objective of this research is to conduct some applications of dynamic programming in the Iraqi economy in order to determine the optimal solution, such as distributing investments among some economic sectors or finding the shortest distance between provinces using the Bellman-Ford algorithm. This includes providing some hypothetical examples of other dynamic programming methods such as the traveling salesman problem or the captain's ship model, as it is sometimes called. Dynamic programming revolves around cost reduction and maximizing returns, also known as optimality. Practical studies have been conducted on the shortest distance between provinces of Middle Euphrates in Iraq, in addition to applying the knapsack method to maximize returns in some economic sectors in Iraq for the year 2007.

Abstract:
Only two weeks after the fall of Saigon in May 1975, Khmer Rouge forces seized the American merchant ship SS Mayaguez (1944) off the Cambodian coast, setting up a Marine rescue and recovery battle on the island of Koh Tang. This battle on 12–15 May 1975 was the final U.S. military episode amid the wider Second Indochina War. The term Vietnam War has impeded a proper understanding of the wider war in the American consciousness, leading many to disassociate the Mayaguez incident from the Vietnam War, though they belong within the same historical frame. This article seeks to provide a heretofore unseen historical argument connecting the Mayaguez incident to the wider war and to demonstrate that Mayaguez and Koh Tang veterans are Vietnam veterans, relying on primary sources from the Ford administration, the papers of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund, and interviews with veterans.

Abstract:
In the summer of 2021, the US Navy conducted a Full Ship Shock Trial (FSST) for the USS Gerald R. Ford. This involved three large underwater explosions off the coast of Florida, USA. We collected underwater acoustic recordings, using low-sensitivity recorders, for the Naval Undersea Warfare Center to validate their underwater acoustic propagation models. We also deployed SoundTraps on the shallow moorings to collect additional acoustical biologics data in hopes of measuring any acoustic responses of marine fauna to the explosions. The acoustic energy of the explosions did not propagate up the continental slope and were hence not captured by the SoundTraps on the shallow moorings. However, our analyses did yield some notable changes in acoustic behavior after as compared to before the explosions. Here, we describe how our field plan was designed for before-after control-impact (BACI) hypothesis testing and discuss our analyses and findings of the few significant cases. These results lend insight for improving the impact assessments and conducting behavioral response studies during a future FSST or other large underwater explosions.

Abstract:
Automatic identification systems (AIS) can record a large amount of navigation information about ships, including abnormal or illegal ship movement information, which plays an important role in ship supervision. To distinguish the trajectories of ships and analyze the behavior of ships, this paper adopts the method of supervised learning to classify the trajectories of ships. First, the AIS data for the ships were marked and divided into five types of ship tracks. The Tsfresh module was then used to extract various ship trajectory features, and a new ensemble classifier based on traditional classification using a machine learning algorithm was proposed for modeling and learning. Moreover, ten-fold cross validation was used to compare the ship trajectory classification results. The classification performance of the ensemble classifier was better than that of the other single classifiers. The average F1 score was 0.817. The results show that the newly proposed method and the new ensemble classifier have good classification effects on ship trajectories.

Abstract:
Sanitary inspection intended to eliminate environmental risk factors in the ships to break the chain disease transmission in order to maintain and enhance the health status. Based on data from 2015 the Port Health Office class I Surabaya, during the ships inspection there are found 23 rats from 2734 ships. The existence of the rats on the cargo ship is very harmful, which can caused disease and damaged food material in cargo ship. The tendency of rats existence on board as media transmission of the disease, is the reason for researchers to identify the level of sanitation review and behavior of crew that affecting the existence of rats on cargo ship in the Port of Tanjung Perak Surabaya. That research aimed to analyze the level of sanitation and behavior of crew that affects the existence of rats. This study was an observational study with cross sectional study design, sampling for ship sanitation in research using accidental sampling, behavior of crew using the proportional random sampling method. The research variables are behavior of crew and ship sanitation. The primary data were collected by observation, indepth interviews, and questionnaires. Secondary data collected from the Port Health Office Class I Surabaya. Statistical test with multiple regression showed that behavior of crew significant effect on the existence of rat in cargo ship. The results using ship sanitation level variables sig. 0.043 means that the behavior of crew variable significant effect on the presence of rats on a cargo ship, while for the ship sanitation variables sig. 0.0002, means that the variable ship sanitation very significantly affected on the presence of rats on a cargo ship. The conclusion of this study be found influences of the ship sanitation and behavior of crew against the presence of rats in cargo ship, so it needs to be disseminated to the crew of cargo ship in order to increase knowledge about ship sanitation, and the health effects of the presence of rats on a cargo ship.

Abstract:
This thesis presents the results of an experimental investigation of the hydrodynamic characteristics of the Monoform hull in calm water. The forces acting on a 1.7 meter model were measured as the model was held captive and towed in calm water. The model was tested at speeds up to three meters per second. The rudders were held straight during one part of the study and were deflected during another to test both their ability to correct for pitching moment and to create yaw moments. The draft of the model was also varied during this study and included drafts of 1.90, 2.21, and 2.42 hull diameters. All three forces and all three moments were measured. The model was tested in a 31 meter towing basin located at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. The results are presented in Figure form in the thesis body and in numerical form in an appendix. Recommendations for future work and improvements to the instrumentation are presented along with conclusions at the end of the thesis.

Abstract:
This thesis presents a new set of methods to assist the process of ship design for safety with particular reference to collision damage. The study has two principal objectives: " investigations into subdivision aspects of passenger ships to improve their overall survival index " investigations into the subdivision of oil tankers in order to improve the effectiveness against spillage in the event of collision damage. In order to investigate the ship subdivision aspect a damage stability model was needed. A pre-requisite for developing the damage stability software was a robust but flexible method to define the hull and the compartments of subdivision. B-splines have been a popular representationatl ool in computer aided design over the past three decades.T his method, though more complex than other spline techniques such as cubic splines, was adopted with a fourth order basis function in this work. A complete set of spline manipulation libraries and associated numerical solvers were developed for this purpose. In addition to this, a method to define the intersection between the hull and the waterplane in the form of a closed B-spline curve for any given orientation of the vessel in terms of -heel, trim and draught was developed to aid the damage stability calculations. Though the earlier regulations stipulate fixed trim assessments to ease the computational process, it is clearly unsatisfactory and research has confirmed this to be a flawed approach. Free trim calculations on the other hand require an iterative and time consuming process to arrive at the equilibrium trim position for each heel angle. Pawlowski proposed a new method for the stability calculations of a freely floating rig when the unit is arbitrarily orientated to the wind direction. It uses the Euler theorem on the properties of equivolume waterplanes to arrive non-iteratively at the new inclined position. This theory was adapted for use in damage stability calculations and was numerically tested and proved to be sound. Damage stability calculations, though combinatorially large, are also inherently parallel. Parallel Virtual Machines (PVM) is a Message Passing Interface (MPI) developed jointly by ORNL, University of Tennessee, Carnegie Mellon University and the Pittsburgh Supercomputing centre. PVM enables a "virtual configuration" so that a collection of serial, parallel and vector processing machines appear as one large distributed memory computer. PVM was compared with another MPI called Network Linda where the advantage of PVM's user controlled message passing was demonstratedP. VM was used to implement the MJMD Distributed Memory paradigm to exploit this inherent parallelism in damage stability calculations and to obtain speedups. A systematic exploration of the search space for this design problem involves the generation of a large number of internal subdivision configurations. This, coupled with the fact that the design space was multimodal in nature made it suitable to the application of a class of heuristic search algorithms called Genetic Algorithms (GA). A brief description of the mechanisms behind GA is presented along with their mathematical basis in the form of two theorems: the schema theorem and the building block hypothesis. Various techniques for solving constrained optimisation problems with GA was explored. The penalty function method was found to be the most suitable and was finally adopted. The above techniques were applied to the optimisation. of the internal subdivision of passenger ships and cargo ships, oil tankers in particular. For passenger ships, the nature of the 's'-factor formulation on the local index was shown. The multimodal nature of the subdivision problem was highlighted and a GA was used to investigate the optimal subdivision characteristics of the vessel. The 's' factor formulation for cargo ship rules is different to that described by the A. 265 set of regulations for passenger vessels. In addition, the cargo ship rules describe a factor V which accounts for the probabilities of vertical extents of damages. However this formulation does not assign any credit for horizontal subdivision below the waterline. Data on vertical extents and vertical location of damages for cargo ships was collected and analysed in earlier studies done at Newcastle University. This data was used to develop a probability function akin to that developed for the longitudinal extent and longitudinal location so as to give credit for any horizontal subdivisions. The principal objective of this part of the study was to explore the search space for subdivision configurations that would minimize net oil outflow.

Abstract:
AbstractWhen the double-line water-saving ship locks operate in the mode of filling and emptying mutually, the filling water process of one lock chamber and emptying water process of the other one are carried out at the same time, thus the situation of chambers waiting for each other is inevitable. Besides, the variation of ship navigating speed and safety interval time between two adjacent ships may have a more significant impact on the operation efficiency of the ship lock, which cannot be ignored. Combined with the actual condition of a planned lock on a canal in China, the throughput capacity and operation efficiency of the double-line water-saving ship locks under the mode of filling and emptying mutually are studied. A coupled operation simulation model of double-line locks is established, in which the mode of filling and emptying water mutually or independently is adopted. In the model, the whole operation processes of the locks are simulated. The simulation results show that the throughput capacity of the planned ship lock is reduced by 5.6%–7.8%, and the average lockage time is increased by about 10.8%, when comparing the mode of filling and emptying water mutually with independently. Besides, using average value of speed and safety interval time of ships is acceptable when doing research on the throughput capacity and operation efficiency of ship locks. The achievements can provide technical support for the analysis of the throughput capacity and operation efficiency of the water-saving ship lock.

Abstract:
AbstractThe stability of ship lift chamber operation has always been the key factor restricting the development of ship lift, which has not been well solved for a long time. With the development of upsizing of ships, the super-huge fully balanced ship lift with hoisting steel wire rope over 10000–15000 t is the development trend in the future. The mechanism of water loss and capsizing of multi-point ship lift is the most key scientific problem, and the most core technical problem is the layout and operation control of ship lift system. A generalized physical model of ship lift with the model scale of 1:33 was established to study the influence of multiple factors on water loss stability of ship chamber, such as gravity counterweight/torque counterweight ratio, water leakage flow, the position of suspension points among the chamber, quantity of the suspension points, and so on. Secondly, the structural dynamics equations of hoisting system is deduced in detail, considering the water fluctuation in the process of water loss caused by longitudinal capsizing moment influence on balance system, and research on the transient dynamic characteristics of hoisting system of the filtration process, determine the ship chamber conditions of stability for the trim through the Lyapunov stability criterion. The optimization calculation model of ship lift mechanical suspension system layout under the action of multiple constraints was established, and the effective measures will be given to improve the pitch stability. The results can provide technical guidance for the upsizing of ship lifters.

Abstract:
AbstractWith China’s economic development, many inland waterways adopt vertical revetment structure to save land resources, but this structure is not conducive to wave attenuation. According to the measurement results of the ship wave data of typical ship types in Sunan Canal sailing at different speeds collected in field observation, the maximum wave height in front of the vertical revetment wall was less than 1.0 m under normal navigation conditions, while the navigation administration boats can form a wave height of nearly 1.8 m in front of the vertical revetment wall at the maximum speed. In channels with heavy freight and fast ship speed, the ship waves formed by ships, superposed with the reflected waves by vertical impervious revetment, would result in severe water surface fluctuation, affecting the safety of ship navigation and the stability of revetment structure. Based on the regulation project of Sunan Canal, this paper put forward two types of vertical wave dissipation revetment, namely round-hole caisson structure and grid-type structure. And their wave dissipation effects are compared and optimized through 2-D wave test. Finally, the 3-D physical model tests of ship wave and revetment were carried out, and the effects of reducing ship wave height of round-hole caisson structure and grid structure are compared. The results show that these two vertical wave dissipation structures can reduce the maximum ship wave height in front of the revetment wall by about 20–25%. The relevant research results of this paper can serve as a reference for similar projects.

Abstract:
AbstractIn order to successfully steer a ship, a man, ship’s watch officer, or commander of the ship must be physically ready and must know the maneuvering characteristics of the ship he steers, as well as the forces acting on him. For that, it is necessary for him to know the specifics of the ship because each ship has its own "mood", its specific properties that depend on the type, and size of the ship. Therefore, maneuvering properties differ even in ships of the same type and therefore it is important to know the specifics of a particular ship. Also, the same ship will behave differently in different situations. When the ship finds itself in situations that require urgent reaction during the voyage, then the experience and skills of the ship's captain come to the fore. Then it is important that the captain, based on his experience, chooses the right maneuver, but also that he always has at least one reserve maneuver in his head. That decision in certain situations must be made in a very short period of time, and the future of the ship and human lives often depends on it, as well as the resources on board. Every skill is acquired through practice, and it is logical that the commander will react faster and more correctly in every new situation. Precisely because of this, the most intensive training is necessary for the formation of quality ship commanders. For that reason, the training of future ship commanders on ship simulators gives excellent results. On ship simulators, they can gain a lot of experience and go through countless scenarios. In this paper, the use-value of ship simulators from the aspect of the training was verified through the Search and Rescue (SAR) exercise realized on the ship simulator Wärtsilä Navigation Simulator NTPRO 5000. It has been shown that the simulator can successfully check and recognize the optimal SAR pattern, maneuvering characteristics of the ship, as well as practice, maneuvering the ship and resolving specific situations that ship commanders may encounter in real situations. Training on ship simulators cannot completely replace training in real situations, but it can be used to get acquainted with the maneuvering characteristics of the ship, train in working with navigation devices, and be a good starting point in preparing people who are trained to perform tasks in real situations. The use of hydrological data of relationships between different types of data using an autoregressive model (AR model) can contribute to the creation of more realistic scenarios on ship simulators. It is also possible to apply data in the modeling of the environment and connect them with the current hydrological situation of the waterway. In the exercise evaluation process, we can see if the ship's captain used the hydrological data in the right way.

Abstract:
AbstractIn the design process of a ship lift, the size of the tank and the depth of water inside the tank are always minimized under the premise of satisfying the standard of ship size and freight volume, in order to reduce the power of electrical driving system, the construction cost of the project and the difficulty of equipment manufacturing, as a result, the cross-section coefficient of the tank is small. Therefore, the up-and downstream docking between the tank and the reaches of canal involves many related hydraulic problems, for instance, opening and closing of the vertical lift gates, entering and leaving of the tank, are very complicated. The docking process is an important link in the whole operations of the ship lift. At the same time, the change of unsteady flow of the hub will also affect the safety and efficiency of the docking process. This paper first briefly introduces the docking process of different types of ship lift, and systematically summarizes the scientific problems involved in the docking process when the ship enters and leaves the tank. Secondly, combined with the research results obtained from a variety of methods such as theoretical analysis, physical model test, mathematical simulation calculation and real ship test of previous researchers, the hydrodynamic research progress of ships entering and leaving the tank is introduced. In summary, the design criteria for the water depth of the ship lift’s tank obtained on the basis of the progress of the hydrodynamic research of the ship entering and leaving the tank are introduced above.

Abstract:
AbstractA novel steel was proposed to apply to a ship, thereby enabling ships to safely complete their missions. But it is different in the ultimate bearing capacity between the novel material and traditional low-alloy high-carbon steels. There is little research on it. In this paper, the ultimate strength and the destruction mode of the typical cabin made of the novel steel under the hazardous condition are successfully obtained through a four-point bending test. Numerical simulation of the typical cabin at its limit state is verified by the test. Based on the numerical simulation method, theoretical initial deformation and ideal constitutive relation are introduced, which contributes to more conservative prediction for the ultimate strength of the ship made of the novel steel. This paper has guiding significance for subsequent tests and provides technical support for the structure design of the ship made of the novel steel.

Abstract:
Abstract The safety of ship hull structure is the most important and fundamental premise of ship operational safety at sea. For ships moving in large waves, the wave loads vary with the loading condition, ship speed and heading, incorrect operation decisions may result in large wave loads on the ship and cause severe accidents. In recent years, the technological advances made in the durability and stability of sensors, data acquisition, data processing units have made it possible to close monitor the stresses in the hull structures of ships. Such technologies are not only an approach for the crew to identify the structural state of the ship hull, but also provide the possibility of sophisticated decision support of safe operations. Although it is possible to reduce vertical bending moment by changing the heading from head seas to quartering seas, but the increasing horizontal bending moment and torsional moment might become a new threat to the structural safety of ships with large deck openings. In this paper, a data driven decision support system for structural safety of ships moving in waves is proposed. The stresses in the deck and in the bottom structure of a ship are used to calculate vertical bending moment, horizontal bending moment and torsional moment in real time, the assessment of overall strength of the ship hull under the wave loads is conducted. To construct a model for the proposal of safe operation of ships driven by monitor data, a method is devised for accurate identification of current navigation parameters based on the sensor data, which are then used for the calculation of parameters for safe operation of ship moving in waves. The method is applied to the case of a container ship moving in waves, and some conclusions are drawn based on the analysis of the results.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper presents two independent methodologies for defining the seakeeping performance of vessels in various sea conditions. The results of a unique series of sea trials are compared to a new time domain computer program (FREDYN) that predicts ship performance and dangerous operating conditions in extreme seas. Both methods independently define the seakeeping performance during various ship operations such as transiting and weather deck operations. Sea trials were conducted during various operations for two classes of small ships (less than 220 feet long) in a wide range of sea conditions. The use of improved trial procedures at specific geographical locations enabled these trials to establish operational limitations and provide challenging environmental conditions for this size ships. The computer prediction (FREDYN) was developed by the Cooperative Research Navies (CRNAV) Dynamic Stability Working Group to provide a unique method of predicting seakeeping performance in extreme sea conditions. Dangerous events such as broaching and capsizing are able to be predicted, along with more accurate motion predictions than in the past. This method will be especially useful in the future for the designs of small ships. The operational performance of ships A and B begins to decline in sea state 5 conditions as indicated by higher motion levels as well as coursekeeping and broaching problems. Capsizing events are predicted for ship A in sea state 6 and 7 conditions; and for ship B in sea state 7 conditions. The good agreement between the sea trial results and FREDYN predictions adds greatly to the credibility of the predictions of these events.

Abstract:
In 2020, the US Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC), Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory, provided technical oversight during a navigation study to assist the Galveston District evaluation of different channel widening alternatives for larger ships transiting the Houston Ship Channel (HSC), Texas. The widening proposals encompassed several areas of the HSC including the Bay Section, the Bayport Ship Channel, Barbours Cut Channel, and the Bayou Section. The study was performed at the San Jacinto College Maritime Technology and Training Center (SJCMTTC) Ship/Tug Simulator (STS) Facility in La Porte, TX. The SJCMTTC STS is a real-time simulator; therefore, events on the simulator happen at the same time rate as real life. A variety of environmental forces act upon the ship during the simulation transit. These include currents, wind, waves, bathymetry, and ship-to-ship interaction. Online simulations of the project were conducted at SJCMTTC over a 3-week period – May through June 2020. Several mariners including Houston Pilots and G&H tugboat Captains participated in the testing and validation exercises. ERDC oversight was performed remotely because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Results in the form of engineering observations, track plots, and pilot interviews were reviewed to develop final conclusions and recommendations regarding the final design.

Abstract:
A navigation channel improvement study for Mobile Harbor was conducted by the US Army Corps of Engineers, Mobile District (CESAM), and the Alabama State Port Authority. The US Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) assisted CESAM in assessing channel modifications using ERDC’s Ship/Tow Simulator through a Feasibility Level Screening Simulation study in 2017 and through a more comprehensive ship-simulation study in 2020. During the 2020 study, a safety concern was identified related to vessel interactions between a transiting vessel passing docked vessels at the McDuffie Coal Terminal located along the main federal channel. In the previous ship-simulation studies, the docked vessels were represented as targets, which means the ships are visually represented but no hydrodynamic interaction is captured. To fully assess this interaction, a surge-analysis study was completed in 2022 that used hydrodynamic models to represent docked vessels with representative mooring conditions. This study assessed several proposed navigation channel expansions across from the McDuffie Coal Terminal over the course of six testing days with four pilots. Assessment of the proposed modifications was accomplished through analysis of ship simulations completed by experienced local pilots, track plots, run sheets, and final pilot questionnaires.

Abstract:
The Army’s modernization priorities include the development of augmented reality and virtual reality (AR/VR) simulations for enabling the regiment and increasing soldier readiness. The use of AR/VR technology at the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) is also growing in the realm of military and civil works program missions. The ERDC Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory (CHL) has developed a ship simulator to evaluate bay channels across the world; however, the current simulator has little to no physical realism in nearshore coastal regions (Figure 1). Thus, the ERDC team is researching opportunities to advance ship simulation to deliver the Ship Simulator of the Future (SSoF). The SSoF will be equipped with a VR mode and will more accurately resolve nearshore wave phenomena by ingesting precalculated output from a Boussinesq-type wave model. This initial prototype of the SSoF application is intended for research and development purposes; however, the technologies employed will be applicable to other disciplines and project scopes, including the Synthetic Training Environment (STE) and ship and coastal structure design in future versions.

Abstract:
The Houston Ship Channel is one of the busiest deep -draft navigation channels in the United States and must be able to accommodate larger vessel dimensions over time. The U.S. Army Engineer District, Galveston (SWG) requested the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center, Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory perform hydrodynamic and sediment modeling of proposed modifications along the Houston Ship Channel. The modeling results are necessary to provide data for salinity and sediment transport analysis a s well as ship simulation studies. SWG provided a project alternative that includes channel widening, deepening, and bend easing. After initial analysis, two additional channel widths in the bay portion of the Houston Ship Channel were requested for testing. The results of these additional channel widths are presented in this report. The model shows that the salinity does not vary significantly due to the channel modifications being considered for this project. Changes in salinity are 2 parts per thousand or less. The tidal prism increases by less than 2% when the project is included, and the tidal amplitudes increase by no more than 0.01 meter. The residual velocity vectors do vary in and around areas where project modifications are made.
