ELECTRIC BOAT NEWS | JULY 2011 | 3 GENERAL DYNAMICS RECOGNIZES ELECTRIC BOAT EMPLOYEES FOR INNOVATION, ENGINEERING ACHIEVEMENTS eneral Dynamics has recognized eight engineers for their professional achievements and advancement of the corpo- G ration’s technical capabilities. Matt Boone (493), Pete Bielaczyc (493), Marc Enright (463), Lloyd Bagg (474), Dave Martin (474), Mike Amburn (459), Mario Nonnenmacher (459) – members of the USS Hartford Collision Repair Engineering Team – and Andrew Zimbelmann (462) were recognized at the corporation’s 13th Annual Engineering Excel- lence and Innovations Awards Conference held recently in Falls Church, Va. Boone accepted the engineering award on behalf of his fellow team members. Engineering Excellence Award In 2009, the Los Angeles-class submarine USS Hartford (SSN- 768) was involved in a collision with a U.S. Navy surface ship in the Persian Gulf, suffering significant damage to the hull, sail and retractable bow planes.

To predict the extent of the damage prior to Hartford’s arrival, the Innovation Excellence Award team developed a finite element analysis based on supplied defor- mation measurements of the damaged hull. In addition, the team General Dynamics presented its Innovation Excellence Award developed an innovative solution to resolve the damage to the port to Zimbelmann in recognition of his efforts over the past 10 retractable bow plane. years to develop advanced technology in the area of acoustic In all, the engineering team made significant contributions to a modeling. Leading a multi-disciplined, multi-organization team of engi- neers and scientists, Zimbelmann coordinated the development of highly innovative, physics-based noise prediction methods. These methods rely on detailed modeling of component noise source mechanisms, and structural dynamics of the component, support structure and ship to predict the generation of vibration and radiation of sound. The methods he developed are enabling key decisions that improve ship performance while avoiding overly conservative and costly designs. The success of this effort is attributable to Zimbelmann’s comprehensive technical abilities, strong team building and leadership skills, and extreme attention to detail. A newly fabricated sail is installed on USS Hartford at Electric Boat’s Groton shipyard. 4 | ELECTRIC BOAT NEWS | July 2011 EMPLOYEES COMMIT TO CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT ho wants to be part of what’s next?” That Green Belt training provided participants the skills, was the question asked of Electric Boat “W employees several months ago. “Who wants knowledge and confidence to implement changes that to be part of the culture of continuous improvement?” Responding to the question were 21 employees who have will positively affect safety, quality, cost and schedule. since completed two weeks of Lean Six Sigma Green Belt training.

    SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN FRONTIERS PROGRAM #1503 "Going Deep" AIRDATE: February 2, 2005 ALAN ALDA Hello and welcome to Scientific American Frontiers. I'm Alan Alda. It's said that the oceans, which cover more than two thirds of the earth's surface, are less familiar to us than the surface of the moon. If you consider the volume of the oceans, it's actually more than ninety percent of the habitable part of the earth that we don't know too much about. The main reason for our relative ignorance is simply that the deep ocean is an absolutely forbidding environment. It's pitch dark, extremely cold and with pressures that are like having a 3,000-foot column of lead pressing down on every square inch -- which does sound pretty uncomfortable. In this program we're going to see how people finally made it to the ocean floor, and we'll find out about the scientific revolutions they brought back with them. We're going to go diving in the Alvin, the little submarine that did so much of the work. And we're going to glimpse the future, as Alvin's successor takes shape in a small seaside town on Cape Cod. That's coming up in tonight's episode, Going Deep. INTO THE DEEP ALAN ALDA (NARRATION) Woods Hole, Massachusetts. It's one of the picturesque seaside towns that draw the tourists to Cape Cod each year. But few seaside towns have what Woods Hole has. For 70 years it's been home to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution — an organization that does nothing but study the world's oceans.

    Marine Nuclear Power 1939 – 2018 Part 1 Introduction

    Marine Nuclear Power: 1939 – 2018 Part 1: Introduction Peter Lobner July 2018 1 Foreword In 2015, I compiled the first edition of this resource document to support a presentation I made in August 2015 to The Lyncean Group of San Diego (www.lynceans.org) commemorating the 60th anniversary of the world’s first “underway on nuclear power” by USS Nautilus on 17 January 1955. That presentation to the Lyncean Group, “60 years of Marine Nuclear Power: 1955 – 2015,” was my attempt to tell a complex story, starting from the early origins of the US Navy’s interest in marine nuclear propulsion in 1939, resetting the clock on 17 January 1955 with USS Nautilus’ historic first voyage, and then tracing the development and exploitation of marine nuclear power over the next 60 years in a remarkable variety of military and civilian vessels created by eight nations. In July 2018, I finished a complete update of the resource document and changed the title to, “Marine Nuclear Power: 1939 – 2018.” What you have here is Part 1: Introduction. The other parts are: Part 2A: United States - Submarines Part 2B: United States - Surface Ships Part 3A: Russia - Submarines Part 3B: Russia - Surface Ships & Non-propulsion Marine Nuclear Applications Part 4: Europe & Canada Part 5: China, India, Japan and Other Nations Part 6: Arctic Operations 2 Foreword This resource document was compiled from unclassified, open sources in the public domain. I acknowledge the great amount of work done by others who have published material in print or posted information on the internet pertaining to international marine nuclear propulsion programs, naval and civilian nuclear powered vessels, naval weapons systems, and other marine nuclear applications.

Nos intentions didactiques sont de mettre en œuvre des stratégies d'enseignement qui prennent en compte les conceptions et représentations initiales des élèves et qui permettent de soutenir leur envie d'apprendre et de comprendre, ou bien de la faire naître. L'alpinisme et la plongée sous-marine constituent par la diversité des situations rencontrées un immense champ de réflexion pour notre enseignement.
