  • Development and Applications of Full-Scale Ship Hull Health
    UNCLASSIFIED/UNLIMITED Development and Applications of Full-Scale Ship Hull Health Monitoring Systems for the Royal Norwegian Navy Hans Erling Torkildsen1, Åslaug Grøvlen1, Atle Skaugen1, Gunnar Wang1, Alf Egil Jensen2, Karianne Pran3 & Geir Sagvolden3 1Norwegian Defence Research Establishment (FFI), P.O.Box 25, N-2027 Kjeller, Norway 2 FiReCo AS, Mosseveien 39B, N-1610 Fredrikstad, Norway 3 Light Structures AS, Hasleveien 38, N-0571 Oslo, Norway Email: [email protected] / [email protected] / [email protected] / [email protected] / [email protected] SUMMARY FFI has through a number of projects been engaged in the development of ship hull structural health monitoring (SHHM) systems for the Norwegian Navy. Important goals are to increase safety, reduce damage and improve the operational utilization of the ship within the design limits, and reduce cost by condition based maintenance. The development of a practical SHHM system is based on the utilization of modern fiber optic sensor technology, detailed Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of the ship hull, and a modular, scaleable signal processing and data storage computer system. The system gives real-time information on both the global wave load on the hull and the local load in a number of selected critical areas. An Extended SHHM (ESHHM) includes monitoring and recording of the ship motion and operating parameters in order to get a complete picture of the parameters influencing the hull load. Detailed characterization of the sea state is obtained by means of a wave radar and a microwave altimeter mounted in the bow which measure the meeting wave profile.

  • Underwater Acoustic Noise Measurement of Vessels
    CASE STUDY THE ROYAL NORWEGIAN NAVY UNDERWATER ACOUSTIC NOISE MEASUREMENT OF VESSELS A vessel’s acoustic signature provides recognition to friends and enemies alike. The acoustic range at Heggernes in Norway measures all types of NATO naval vessels, and is one of only a few in the world. New and refitted vessels are measured to NATO standards, to identify changes and deviations from specified noise levels. Reliability and accuracy are essential for their hydrophones and customized software.

  • De-Overvie Nato Defence Planning Capability Review
    ràai NORTH ATlANTIC COUNCIL L nL •)VÀ1LI CONSEIL DE UATLANTIQUE NoRD 22 May 2014 DOCUMENT C-M(2014)0027 (DE-OVERVIE NATO DEFENCE PLANNING CAPABILITY REVIEW 201312014 DENMARK OVERVIEW 1. The 2013-2017 Defence Agreement agreed in November 2012 by seven of the eight political parties represented in the Danish Parliament introduced measures to improve efficiency and inciudes a reduction of the defence budget by approximately 12% of the 2013 budget. As a result there will be major changes to the structure of the armed forces. However, there is a clear political objective that the budget cuts will not impact operational capability. Continued participation in operations is a priority within the Danish defence organisation and forces will continue to be configured to be able to deploy at short notice. The freeing of money spent on operations in Afghanistan, as a result of a reduced level of forces, will be reinvested in defence, into programmes designed to maintain operational capabilities in terms of training and materiel, but will not fully compensate for the budget reductions. 2. The aim of Denmark’s foreign and security policy is the promotion of national security and prosperity based on core values of freedom, democracy and human rights. NATO remains a cornerstone of Danish security and defence policy. Denmark’s armed forces, contributing to the defence dimension of its pro-active foreign and security policy, are actively engaged in current international operations, conducted under the aegis of NATO or the UN. Active engagement in the Arctic/High North is also of strategic importance to Denmark and to that end, in October 2012, two existing structures were merged into a Joint Arctic Command which was established in Nuuk, Greenland.

Most European countries imposed harsh physical distancing measures to save lives, and an economic downturn then ensued. As the countries of Europe and North America were cau- tiously trying to open up their economies in May 2020, there were questions about the short-term and long-term impact of the coro- navirus pandemic, the most important being whether the spread of the virus would intensify after the summer. With the number of Covid-19 cases rapidly increasing in September and October and with no vaccine available yet, governments in Europe began to impose stricter regulations to slow the spread of the virus.
