The hubless rim-driven thruster (RDT) has become increasingly interesting for ship
propulsion. Gap flow has been proven as the main feature of RDT that cannot be simply …

Ship anti-rolling devices are an essential component of modern vessels. The core
component of the Magnus effect-based ship anti-rolling device is a rotating cylinder …

Deep reinforcement learning (RL) is capable of identifying and modifying strategies for
active flow control. However, the classic active formulation of deep RL requires lengthy …

The linear and nonlinear gap resonances in a free-rolling moonpool are investigated using
a two-dimensional in-house code based on the constrained interpolation profile method …

The effective operation of anti-rolling devices is important for ensuring ship safety, comfort,
combat capability, and performance. Stabilizers based on the principle of the Magnus effect …

When employing rotating cylinders as ship anti-rolling devices based on the Magnus effect,
the cylinders are near the free surface. However, most of the previous studies on rotating …

With the development of the applications of unmanned surface vehicles (USVs), USV
automation technologies are attracting increasing attention. In the industry, through the …

In this study, the performance of a pump-jet propulsor (PJP) with pre-swirl stator in open
water is numerically investigated. Both full-scale and model-scale configurations are …

Ship motion attitude data have strong random and non-stationary characteristics under
severe sea states. Real-time and accurate prediction of the ship's motion attitude can …

This study introduces a concept that jet technology in the aeronautical field is used for active
flow control to improve the hydrodynamic performance of a ducted propeller. Jet flow is …
