Righting Moment

Even in calm water, high-speed vessels can display unstable behaviors such chine walking, sudden large heel, and porpoising. Large heel results from the loss of transverse stability at high forward speed. When a planing craft begins to plane, the hydrodynamic lift forces raise the hull out of the water. The available righting moment resulting from the hydrostatic buoyancy is, therefore, reduced. As the righting moment resulting from hydrostatic buoyancy is reduced, the righting moment resulting from dynamic effects becomes important. These hydrodynamic righting effects are related to the hydrodynamic lift. This article explores the relationship between the hydrostatic lift and righting moment, the hydrodynamic lift and righting moment, and the total lift and heel-restoring moment of a planing craft operating at planing speeds. A series of tow tests using a prismatic hull with a constant deadrise of 20 measured the lift force and righting moment at various angles of heel and at various model velocities. The model was completely constrained in surge, sway, heave, roll, pitch, and yaw. The underwater volume is determined from the known hull configuration and the underwater photography of the keel and chine wetted lengths. The results presented include the total lift and righting moment with the hydrostatic and hydrodynamic contributions for various model speeds at two model displacements.

Transverse Stability

Even in calm water, high-speed vessels can display unstable behaviors such as chine walking, sudden large heel, and porpoising. Large heel angle can result in the loss of transverse stability at high forward speed. When a planing craft begins to plane, the hydrodynamic lift forces raise the hull out of the water, reducing the underwater geometry. An experimental program at the U.S. Naval Academy has been designed to investigate the transverse stability of planing hulls. An experimental mechanism to force a planing hull model in heave and roll motion was designed and built. The first model tested was a wooden prismatic planing hull model with a constant deadrise of 20, a beam of 1.48 ft (0.45 m), and a total length of 5 ft (1.52 m). The model was held at various heel and running draft positions while fixed in pitch, yaw, and sway. The tests were done at two model speeds, for one model displacement, five fixed heel angles, and five fixed running heave positions. The lift and sway forces, along with the heel moment, were measured and underwater photography was taken of the wetted surface. This article presents a set of equations based on empirical relationships for calculating the lift and heel moment for a prismatic planing hull at nonzero heel angles.

Most microelectronics devices and circuits operate faster, consume less power, execute more functions and cost less per circuit function when the feature-sizes internal to the devices and circuits are made smaller. This is part of the stimulus for the Very High-Speed Integrated Circuits (VHSIC) program. There is also a need for smaller, more sensitive sensors in a wide range of disciplines that includes electrochemistry, neurophysiology and ultra-high pressure solid state research. There is often fundamental new science (and sometimes new technology) to be revealed (and used) when a basic parameter such as size is extended to new dimensions, as is evident at the two extremes of smallness and largeness, high energy particle physics and cosmology, respectively. However, there is also a very important intermediate domain of size that spans from the diameter of a small cluster of atoms up to near one micrometer which may also have just as profound effects on society as “big” physics.

One of the most important requirements for a high-performance EM, especially an analytical EM using a fine beam probe, is to prevent specimen contamination by providing a clean high vacuum in the vicinity of the specimen. However, in almost all commercial EMs, the pressure in the vicinity of the specimen under observation is usually more than ten times higher than the pressure measured at the punping line. The EM column inevitably requires the use of greased Viton O-rings for fine movement, and specimens and films need to be exchanged frequently and several attachments may also be exchanged. For these reasons, a high speed pumping system, as well as a clean vacuum system, is now required. A newly developed electron microscope, the JEM-100CX features clean high vacuum in the vicinity of the specimen, realized by the use of a CASCADE type diffusion pump system which has been essentially improved over its predeces- sorD employed on the JEM-100C.

The Fourier Transform

In the past few years on-line digital television frame store devices coupled to computers have been employed to attempt to measure the microscope parameters of defocus and astigmatism. The ultimate goal of such tasks is to fully adjust the operating parameters of the microscope and obtain an optimum image for viewing in terms of its information content. The initial approach to this problem, for high resolution TEM imaging, was to obtain the power spectrum from the Fourier transform of an image, find the contrast transfer function oscillation maxima, and subsequently correct the image. This technique requires a fast computer, a direct memory access device and even an array processor to accomplish these tasks on limited size arrays in a few seconds per image. It is not clear that the power spectrum could be used for more than defocus correction since the correction of astigmatism is a formidable problem of pattern recognition.

Silicon-on-insulator (SOI) structures have excellent potential for future use in radiation hardened and high speed integrated circuits. For device fabrication in SOI material a high quality superficial Si layer above a buried oxide layer is required. Recently, Celler et al. reported that post-implantation annealing of oxygen implanted SOI at very high temperatures would eliminate virtually all defects and precipiates in the superficial Si layer. In this work we are reporting on the effect of three different post implantation annealing cycles on the structure of oxygen implanted SOI samples which were implanted under the same conditions.

Potential Use

The properties of metal/semiconductor interfaces have received considerable attention over the past few years, and the Al/GaAs system is of special interest because of its potential use in high-speed logic integrated optics, and microwave applications. For such materials a detailed knowledge of the geometric and electronic structure of the interface is fundamental to an understanding of the electrical properties of the contact. It is well known that the properties of Schottky contacts are established within a few atomic layers of the deposited metal. Therefore surface contamination can play a significant role. A method for fabricating contamination-free interfaces is absolutely necessary for reproducible properties, and molecularbeam epitaxy (MBE) offers such advantages for in-situ metal deposition under UHV conditions
