1. New Perspectives on Analysis and Design of High-Speed Craft with Respect to Slamming
Abstract : High-speed craft are in high demand in the maritime industry, for example, in maintenance operations for offshore structures, for search and rescue, for patrolling operations, or as leisure craft to deliver speed and excitement. Design and operation of high-speed craft are often governed by the hydrodynamic phenomena of slamming, which occur when the craft impact the wave surface. READ MORE

2. On Structural Design of High-Speed Craft
Abstract : The development in structural design and construction of high-speed craft has been extensive during the last decades. Environmental and economical issues have increased the need to develop more optimized structures, using new material concepts, to reduce weight and increase performance efficiency. READ MORE

3. On Evaluation and Modelling of Human Exposure to Vibration and Shock on Planing High-Speed Craft
Abstract : High speed in waves, necessary in for instance rescue or military operations, often result in severe loading on both the craft and the crew. To maximize the performance of the high-speed craft (HSC) system that the craft and crew constitute, balance between these loads is essential. READ MORE

4. Finite element modelling of hydroelasticity in hull-water impacts
Abstract : The work in this thesis focuses on the use of explicit finite element analysis (FEA) in the modelling of fluid-structure interaction of panel-water impacts. Paper A, considers modelling of a two-dimensional rigid wedge impacting a calm water surface. READ MORE

5. Hydroelasticity in Marine Hull Bottom Panels - Modeling and Characterization
Abstract : The work in this thesis is concerned with the localized problem of hydroelasticity in marine panel-water impacts with an overall aim to increase the efficiency of high-speed craft by application of more refined methods in the structural design. The work mainly focuses on numerical modeling of the hydroelastic problem and therewith related aspects in the modeling and characterization of hydroelasticity. READ MORE
