Design system for optimum contra-rotating propellers

A new type of contrarotating propeller (CRP) system has been developed through the cooperative research work of five shipbuilding companies in Japan (Hitachi Zosen Corporation; Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd.; Mitsui Engineering and Shipbuilding Co., Ltd.; NKK Corporation; and Sumitomo Heavy Industries, Ltd.). This paper describes a design system for an optimum CRP, which is one of the numerous outcomes of this work. The optimum design system is composed of three theoretical programs: (1) the design program of the optimum CRP; (2) the steady lifting surface program of the CRP; (3) the unsteady lifting surface program of the CRP. These theoretical programs will be discussed in the first part of the paper, and the design system supported by these theoretical programs will then be verified by comparing calculated and experimental results.Translation of an article that appeared in the Journal of The Society of Naval Architects of Japan, vol. 180 (1996): The original article won the SNAJ prize, which is awarded annually to the best papers selected from the SNAJ Journal, JMST, or other quality journals in the field of naval architecture and ocean engineering.

用tent函数计算兴波阻力及优化船型问题

本文用理论方法计算了兴波阻力和改良船型的型值。理论计算可分下列两种情况: (1)对基本船型的水线迭加曲线薄船函数以计算其对应的改良船型。 (2)对基本船型的曲表面迭加曲面薄船函数以计算其对应的改良船型。 本文利用C.C.Hsiung提出的用tent函数方法计算兴波阻力。用SUMT混合罚因子优化技术计算改良船型的型值。 本文以y=(1-x~2)(1-z~4)数学船型和Series 60实用船型为基本船型,用tent函数方法对它们进行了兴波阻力计算,并且与其它兴波阻力计算方法进行了比较。本文还以上述两种船型为基本船型进行了改良船型的计算,并且得到了与它们相应的理论改良船型。     

Integrated data-driven modeling to estimate PM2.5 pollution from heavy-duty truck transportation activity over metropolitan area

Based on the national emission inventory data from different countries, heavy-duty trucks are the highest on-road PM_2.5 emitters and their representation is estimated disproportionately using current modeling methods. This study expands current understanding of the impact of heavy-duty truck movement on the overall PM_2.5 pollution in urban areas through an integrated data-driven modeling methodology that could more closely represent the truck transportation activities. A detailed integrated modeling methodology is presented in the paper to estimate urban truck related PM_2.5 pollution by using a robust spatial regression-based truck activity model, the mobile source emission and Gaussian dispersion models. In this research, finely resolved spatial–temporal emissions were calculated using bottom-up approach, where hourly truck activity and detailed truck-class specific emissions rates are used as inputs. To validate the proposed methodology, the Cincinnati urban area was selected as a case study site and the proposed truck model was used with U.S. EPA’s MOVES and AERMOD models. The heavy-duty truck released PM_2.5 pollution is estimated using observed concentrations at the urban air quality monitoring stations. The monthly air quality trend estimated using our methodology matches very well with the observed trend at two different continuous monitoring stations with Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient of 0.885. Based on emission model results, it is found that 71 percent of the urban mobile-source PM_2.5 emissions are caused by trucks and also 21 percent of the urban overall ambient PM_2.5 concentrations can be attributed to trucks in Cincinnati urban area.     

Prediction of aircraft performances based on data collected by air traffic control centers

Accurate prediction of aircraft position is becoming more and more important for the future of air traffic. Currently, the lack of information about flights prevents us to fulfill future demands for the needed accuracy in 4D trajectory prediction. Until we get the necessary information from aircraft and until new more accurate methods are implemented and used, we propose an alternative method for predicting aircraft performances using machine learning from historical data about past flights collected in a multidimensional database. In that way, we can improve existing applications by providing them better inputs for their trajectory calculations. Our method uses flight plan data to predict performance values, which are suited individually for each flight. The results show that based on recorded past aircraft performances and related flight data we can effectively predict performances for future flights based on how similar flights behaved in the past.
