Vessel Designing TRIZ Cases
- Follower Vessel Positioning in Time-Dependent Kelvin Wakes
Past-state Kelvin wake propagation guides follower vessel placement when the lead vessel changes speed or heading, cutting wave-making resistance.
- Dynamic Vessel Mooring Bouncer Sinker for Anchor Holding
A bouncer sinker lifts above the seabed in light weather and engages the anchor during storms to optimize mooring chain configuration.
- Automated Thermal Plate Shaping for Naval Shipbuilding
Automated thermal plate forming replaces manual shaping by using robotic heating and quenching to achieve precise naval vessel components.
- Self-Contained Tank Modules for Modular Tanker Construction
Segmented tank modules resolve the conflict between structural strength and adaptability by allowing independent removal, repair, and standardization.
- Mooring Buoy Bearing Assembly Quick-Release Retainer
A buoy bearing retainer releasably attaches to the turret assembly for on-site maintenance.
- Prefabricated Ship Module Frame with Removable Base for Deck Installation
Removable base components of a prefabricated ship module frame reduce transport volume and weight while simplifying multi-deck installation.
- Mapping Algorithm Adjusts Real-World Data for Simulation-Trained Neural Networks
A mapping algorithm adjusts real-world data to match simulation outputs, preserving decision logic in trained neural networks.
- Porous-Structure Device Suppressing Wave Run-Up on Marine Columns
Segmented porous laminated plates on marine platform columns dissipate wave energy, reducing run-up impacts without increasing structural weight.
- Magnetic Induction Positioning for Hypergravity Anchor Testing
A magnetic induction positioning system tracks six-degree-of-freedom motion of dynamic penetration plate anchors.
- Multi-flange Hull Design for Marine Stability
Vertically displaced flanges create multiple gripping surfaces that reduce instability forces during maneuvers.
- Ship Righting Arm Model Determination in Adverse Weather
A ship stability determining arrangement uses sensor motion data and excitation signals to calculate a righting arm model through dynamic residual minimization.
- Submarine Cladding Detachable Receptacle
A detachable fiber composite receptacle prevents bonded seam cracks and seawater corrosion in submarine cladding.
- Thruster Well Maintenance System for Floating Vessels
A thruster well system uses clamps and seals to lift marine propellers from floating vessels.
- In Situ 3D Mooring Line Assessment via Multi-Angle Imaging
A controller generates three-dimensional mooring line models from captured two-dimensional images for in situ health evaluation.
- Magnetic Resonance Communication Through Ship Bulkheads
A magnetic field communication module induces electromagnetic fields in metal bulkheads to transmit data wirelessly.
- Bi-Pod Cantilever Mount for Ship Hull Laser Metrology
Adjustable Bi-Pod cantilever mount positions laser metrology equipment over damaged ship hulls to capture accurate damage control data.
- Flexible Wire Rope Lifting for Marine Pod Housing
Replacing rigid rods with flexible wire ropes allows concurrent propeller removal and lifting setup, reducing pod change time by 10 to 12 hours.
