MOB HydromechanicsS&T Summary
Broad, balanced program addressing a range of S&T topics corresponding to MOB design
Driven by: USER!– operational, survival and transit aspects– wide range of MOB platform characteristics– ALL accompanying support information
Deliverables include:– preliminary and final analysis tools– pioneering hydroelastic models and data– wave excitation - structural loads interface– pioneering wave coherence information

MOB HydromechanicsS&T Technology Transfer
MOB Hydromechanics S&T is applicable to all large offshore vessels and structures
Commercial airports (cargo) Remote military training airfields

MOB HydromechanicsS&T Summary
Key S&T Opportunities:
– Analyze hydroelastic data!
– Continue wave coherence studies
– Complete Classification Guide
– develop a technique that will apply viscous damping to VLFS structures with “small” modules

Crest Only;
“This is not a wave.”
“Paired Crest + Trough;
“This is a wave.”
“Disjointed Crest;
“This is unknown!”
““What is a [3D] ‘wave’?”What is a [3D] ‘wave’?”
