... that conceivably might work well as long as the installation tolerance and other requirements are not too tight. The main focus is on the quantification of the lateral excursions of the submerged load, or module. lateral pendulum excursion initial value amplitude orbit suspension point equation...

... ABSTRACT The authors treat the physical phenomenon of spray around the bow of a small high-speed craft as a free jet stream in this paper. Orbit and shape of the jet stream were analyzed using the theoretical analysis of a free jet stream proposed by E. O. Tuck(1976). The change of orbit...

... response with unstable periodic orbits (UPO"s), a locally linear mapping of the dynamics is obtained. This linear mapping is subsequently employed in a controller design and the controller is applied to the moored structure. An example of a system modeled by the types of nonlinearities considered (e.g...

... ABSTRACT The first Taiwan's scientific experimental satellite, "ROCSAT- 1," will be launched by February 1999 to a 600 km circular orbit with a 35° inclination. It will carry an ocean color instrument named "Ocean Color Imager (OCI)" on board to monitor ocean color. The OCI has a 700 km swath...

... ascending and descending orbits with different look angles allows for accurate determination of the motion of the shelf ice around Hemmen Ice Rise(HIR). Also the width change of the crevasses on the shelf ice for a three day interval can be determined. INTRODUCTION The Antarctic Ice Sheet has an immense...
