  • Theoretical Model of Acoustic Wave Propagation in Shallow Water

    The work is devoted to the propagation of low frequency waves in a shallow sea. As a source of acoustic waves, underwater disturbances generated by ships were adopted. A specific feature of the propagation of acoustic waves in shallow water is the proximity of boundaries of the limiting media characterised by different impedance properties, which affects the acoustic field coming from a source situated in the water layer “ deformed”...

  • Wpływ warunków naturalnych na zobrazowanie dna Zatoki Gdańskiej przy użyciu sonaru bocznego
    Publication

    - Year 2017

    Głównym celem artykułu jest przedstawienie wpływu warunków środowiskowych na dokładność zobrazowania dna morza za pomocą systemów hydroakustycznych. Czynniki naturalne, przede wszystkim falowanie powierzchni morza i niejednorodny rozkład prędkości dźwięku w wodzie, mają wpływ na zmianę toru promieni akustycznych. Choć w obu przypadkach mechanizm zjawisk jest zupełnie odmienny, odgrywają one decydującą rolę w odwzorowaniu dna i...

  • A numerical model to simulate the motion of a lifesaving module during its launching from the ship’s stern ramp

    The article presents a numerical model of object motion in six degrees of freedom (DoF) which is intended to be used to simulate 3D motion of a lifesaving module during its launching from a ship using a stern ramp in rough sea. The model, of relatively high complexity, takes into account both the motion of the ship on water in changing sea conditions, and the relative motion of the ramp with respect to the ship. The motion of the...

  • Underwater Acoustic Imaging of the Sea
    Publication

    Acoustic waves are a carrier of information mainly in environments where the use of other types of waves, for example electromagnetic waves, is limited. The term acoustical imaging is widely used in the ultrasonic engineering to imaging areas in which the acoustic waves propagate. In particular, ultrasound is widely used in the visualization of human organs - ultrasonography (Nowicki, 2010). Expanding the concept, acoustical imaging...

    The offshore wind turbines require determination of wave loads on their support structure. This structure is fixed and, therefore, this problem is reduced to solving only the diffraction problem, which is determined by Laplace equation and conditions on the following boundaries: on the support structure, on the sea free surface and on its bottom, and at infinity on free surface. The linear problem was applied to determine the wave...
