In the present paper, the influence of various stiffener parameters on the stability of the DFT was studied via the finite\u0000 element method. The strengthening scheme of the DFT was optimised by the orthogonal test method, by which the influence of various parameters on the shell mass, internal volume and stability of the structure was evaluated. The optimal buckling resistance scheme can be obtained using the comprehensive\u0000 balance method based on the orthogonal assessment results.","PeriodicalId":44271,"journal":{"name":"UNDERWATER TECHNOLOGY","volume":"12 1","pages":"103-109"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2020-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84222540","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) facilitate the study of ocean-based submarine and marine parameters\u0000 details and data. Hardware plays a major role in monitoring marine parameters; however, protecting the hardware deployed in water can be difficult. To extend the lifespan of the hardware, the inputs, processing and output cycles may be reduced, thus minimising the consumption of energy and\u0000 increasing the lifespan of the devices. In the present study, time series similarity check (TSSC) algorithm is applied to the real-time sensed data to identify repeated and duplicated occurrences of data for reduction, and thus improve energy consumption. Hierarchical classification of ANOVA\u0000 approach (HCAA) applies ANOVA (analysis of variance) statistical analysis model to calculate error analysis for realtime sensed data. To avoid repeated occurrences, the scheduled time to read measurements may be extended, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the node. The shorter time\u0000 interval of observations leads to a higher error rate with lesser accuracy. TSSC and HCAA data aggregation models help to minimise the error rate and improve accuracy.","PeriodicalId":44271,"journal":{"name":"UNDERWATER TECHNOLOGY","volume":"34 1","pages":"53-64"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2020-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78355552","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It has been shown to be useful in the fields of investigations and surveillance,\u0000 and in assisting with and offering solutions to water-based calamities. Reliability in the underwater environment has caused researchers to direct attention towards improving the overall efficiency and energy utilisation of the network. In the present paper, reliable node quester (RNQ) algorithm\u0000 has been formulated to calculate the node reliability for numerous parameters such as success rate, transmission time, and the affordability, congestion and stability of the nodes. The present paper highlights the data-forwarding mechanism of the nodes to enhance overall network reliability\u0000 by (i) reducing the packet drop rate; (ii) increasing the packet delivery ratio; and (iii) minimising the energy consumption.

The methodologies to estimate SRLs are built on the technology readiness level (TRL), originally developed by NASA to assess the readiness of new technologies for insertion into a\u0000 system. TRL was later adopted by governmental institutions and many industries, including the American Petroleum Institute (API). The TRL of each component is mathematically combined with another metric, integration readiness level (IRL), to estimate the overall level of readiness of a system.\u0000 An averaging procedure is then used to estimate the composite level of systems readiness. The present paper builds on the previous paper by Yasseri (2013) and presents case examples to demonstrate the estimation of SRL using two approaches. The objective of the present paper is to show how\u0000 the TRL, IRL, and SRL are combined mathematically. The performance of the methodology is also demonstrated in a parametric study by pushing the states of readiness to their extremes, namely very low and very high readiness. The present paper compares and contrasts the two major\u0000 system readiness levels estimation methods: one proposed by Sauser et al. (2006) for defence acquisition based on NASA's TRL scale, and another based on API's TRL scale. The differences and similarities are demonstrated using a case study.","PeriodicalId":44271,"journal":{"name":"UNDERWATER TECHNOLOGY","volume":"28 1","pages":"13-27"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2020-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87086429","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The design of the quadrat used for these studies must accomplish ergonomics through certain specifications such as: made of highly\u0000 resistant material; negative-buoyant but lightweight; anticorrosive (specially for marine environments); able to stay positioned on seafloor habitat; and compatible with the in situ labelling technique.

The Lyapunov function is treated as\u0000 a soft constraint, and the barrier function as hard constraint for the UUV; both are satisfied simultaneously using quadratic programming.

Therefore a new technique, the ionic current wave (ICW), has been developed for signal propagation at MHz frequency. This technique uses the conduction current\u0000 produced in seawater as a result of thermal ionisation releasing H+ and OH– ions. A small voltage (<1.5 V pk) is applied between two metal electrodes submerged in the seawater to avoid ionisation by the input electrical energy. A detailed theoretical\u0000 analysis of the ICW process has shown that ionic currents can be transmitted at MHz frequency over distances of 10 m with low signal loss per decade. For longer propagation distances of 100 m the theory predicts a signal loss of –20 dB per decade. Propagation experiments have\u0000 been carried out in Liverpool dock seawater for distances of 2 m–28 m between parallel 0.5 m × 0.3 m electrodes placed vertically in the seawater at a depth of 2 m. Signal frequencies within the range of 1 MHz–8 MHz have been investigated. In each experiment the received\u0000 propa gated signal power was approximately –67 dBm (well above the dock electrical noise of –140 dBm) and only showed a small power loss over the full range of propagation. The ICW system will be able to measure longer propagation distances in deep seawater conditions\u0000 suitable for ship and submarine communications. Its performance is comparable to that of sonar systems.","PeriodicalId":44271,"journal":{"name":"UNDERWATER TECHNOLOGY","volume":"48 1","pages":"53-61"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2019-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78510592","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present work targets the low flow current of the sub-Saharan ocean system, which has an underwater current record of around 0.3 m/s\u0000 and a sea state that is mild, benign and with little or no local storms. The present initiative is achieved through a combination of ducting techniques to increase velocity of flow, and the utilisation of a large surface contact area exposed to flowing water per unit of time. Torque estimations\u0000 are made using three methods: first principle, SolidWorks computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software and physical measurement. The lowest power coefficient for the tested model is computed from SolidWorks CFD software as 0.70.
