 | The Coast Guard Yard in Curtis Bay, MD implemented a PC/AutoCAD based CAD/CAM system and used it to construct a series of 15 M (49 foot) buoy tenders. Implementing CAD/CAM is primarily a management, rather than technical, challenge. Performance-Based Management Techniques were used to develop the new system as an integrated whole, controlled and documented under ISO 9001. The was cost-effective, required minimum retraining, was fully implemented in a few ... |

|
| The WLM(R) Coastal Buoy Tender was a small cutter in the preliminary design stage at Marinette Marine Shipyard, Marinette, WI. This report documents the results of a comprehensive fire safety analysis of the design of the WLM(R) conducted under the Small Cutter Fire Protection (SCFP) project and provides a recommended class specific fire protection doctrine. The results of the analysis indicate that all of the compartments in the WLM(R) exceed ... |

|
 | A cultural resource inventory of the Upper Mississippi River headwaters reservoirs was undertaken to determine their eligibility for the National Register of Historic Places. The damsites are located in north central Minnesota, on the main stem and tributary streams of the Upper Mississippi River. Due to recreational development and accompanying road building, as well as changing lake levels, the damsites are highly disturbed areas. All of the sites have had ... |

Geoffrey O. Thomas; NAVAL RESEARCH LAB WASHINGTON DC
|
| This report documents the Navy shipboard elevator controller and sensor subsystems research, development, test and evaluation plan. The Navy shipboard elevator development program was inaugurated following numerous problems experienced by the fleet on cargo/weapons elevators installed in underway replenishment ships. Many elevator controller styles were in service with systems and components produced by numerous manufacturers. Replacement components were frequently procured from sole source suppliers at high cost with attendant long ... |

|
| A computer model which simulates the traffic flow of a Navy port has been developed. The model causes a ship to be placed in one of seven possible states: on extended operation, in overhaul, at a tender, in port on normal operations, in port preparing for overseas movement, in port on 30-day stand down, or on short deployment on normal operations. Hotel utilities, which include steam and electric power, can ... |

| AN ANALYTICAL MODEL FOR APPLICATION TO THE OPERATION OF REPLENISHMENT AT SEA. |
DEC 1967 |

|
| An analytical model for replenishment at sea is formulated for two supply ships and L combatants using queueing theory concepts and a random walk model in the plane. Exponential distributions are assumed for replenishment times, and, given the initial number of combatants to be replenished by each supply ship, the distribution for total time to complete the finite operation is obtained in terms of Laplace transforms. All possible sequences for ... |

|
| Measurements were made on the propulsion system of the USS SIMON LAKE (AS-33) in February 1965 as part of a program to improve analysis procedures used by the Navy for predicting the longitudinal vibration of shaft propulsion systems. The objectives were to find the axial exciting forces and damping associated with the propulsion system of this ship, as well as to determine how the gear case, turbines, condenser, and machinery ... |

| A PROBABILISTIC MODEL FOR DETERMINING AN OPTIMUM POLARIS TENDER LOAD LIST. |
1963 |
|
| Authors:
Richard J. Damico; Neil L. Harvey; NAVAL POSTGRADUATE SCHOOL MONTEREY CA
|
| A mathematical model is developed for determining an optimum submarine tender load list for the POLARIS (FBM) weapon system. Military essentiality of spare parts and the stowage capacity of the tender play prominent roles in the development of the model. The measure of effectiveness which is maximized is the average number of demands filled over a given period of time. This is equivalent to minimizing the number of stockouts of ... |
