The Committee met, pursuant to notice, at 10 a.m. in Room SR– 253, Russell Senate Office Building, Hon. John D. Rockefeller IV, Chairman of the Committee, presiding. OPENING STATEMENT OF HON. JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER IV, U.S. SENATOR FROM WEST VIRGINIA The CHAIRMAN. Good morning. We have, as usual, a complicated, potentially fluctuating morning schedule. I know that one thing will not fluctuate and that’s the 11:00 o’clock vote, and I’d like to get as much of this done but will come back if more members, I hope, will appear. We have Georgia and Alaska and West Virginia, which should be enough to cover the country but there ought to be more people here and they probably will be here. And I’m very glad that you are and first of all, I want to say to the Coast Guard that I feel very sad about the helicopter crash that happened in Mobile Bay, and it was just Tuesday night, wasn’t it? Admiral SALERNO. Yes, sir. The CHAIRMAN. My thoughts and the Committee’s thoughts are with the families and also with the Coast Guard on this because the Coast Guard is a family unto itself. Admiral SALERNO. Thank you, sir. The CHAIRMAN. I got that correct, didn’t I? All right. Let me give my opening statement. Senator Rubio will be along and Senator Isakson has a one-hour-and-three-quarter speech. One minute? OK. I knew that actually. It’s fun teasing you. He’s a good friend. He’s a Braves fan. The cruise ship industry is large, it’s successful and it’s very profitable. The industry’s revenues top $25 billion a year. Nearly 13 million Americans, including a couple of my own children, took a cruise last year, although I think they did it the year before. But they enjoyed it. The industry is growing with larger and larger ships entering service every year. Some ships will carry over 5,000 passengers and a crew, and I can’t speak for Alaska and Georgia but in West Vir- (1) VerDate Nov 24 2008 10:05 Dec 12, 2012 Jkt 075679 PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 6633 Sfmt 6633 S:\GPO\DOCS\77338.TXT JACKIE 2 ginia terms that would be a modern cruise ship carrying the entire population of most West Virginia towns. So they’re floating private cities. A unique and complex set of international rules governs the operations of the ship and the safe- ty of the passengers. This is a safety committee, the Commerce Committee. We are a safety committee. We do many things but safety is always on top. I believe that these rules work, really, to protect the companies more than to protect their passengers. If there are those who dis- agree with it, I’m sure they will so say. In any event, we’re here today to examine whether existing regulations are in fact sufficient to protect the health and safety of passengers and the fragile ocean environment in which they operate, and I recognize some of you testified yesterday before the House and this is something

    Date: April 22, 2003 Subject: Trip Report to Northern Europe for National Science Foundation project From: Richard P. Voelker Chief, Advanced Technology Office of Shipbuilding and Marine Technology To: Joseph A. Byrne Director Office of Shipbuilding and Marine Technology During March 12-27, I traveled with representatives of the National Science Foundation (Alexander Sutherland), Raytheon Polar Services Corporation (Paul Olsgaard) and Science and Technology Corporation (James St. John and Aleksandr Iyerusalimskiy) to Finland, Sweden and Germany. The purpose of the trip was to gain insight into the design and operation of their national icebreakers, many of which incorporate innovative concepts. Visits were made to the Finnish Maritime Administration (Markku Mylly) and their icebreaker BOTNICA, the Swedish Maritime Administration (Anders Backman) and their icebreaker ODEN, and the German Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research (Eberhard Fahrbach). Information was also obtained on the new Swedish icebreaker class VIKING and the German polar research vessel POLARSTERN. Attachment A provides some of the notes from our visit while Attachment B contains a discussion on some elements of the technical specification for the new generation research/icebreaker vessel. The trip was very valuable and provided a great start to the feasibility-level design study that MARAD has been contracted to perform for the NSF. A presentation describing this trip and some interim results from the feasibility-level design study will be made in mid-May to interested MAR-760 members. # Attachment A – Notes from the visit ---------- Briefing by Paavo Lohi - Aker Finnyards, builder of BOTNICA The bow skeg or bilge keels do not affect the flow of ice around the hull.

  • Construction of a Hardware-In-The-Loop Simulator for Azipod Control System Testing
    Markus Nylund Construction of a hardware-in-the-loop simulator for Azipod control system testing Thesis submitted for examination for the degree of Master of Science in Technology. Espoo 03.08.2016 Thesis supervisor: Prof. Seppo Ovaska Thesis advisor: D.Sc. (Tech.) Juha Orivuori Aalto-universitetet, PL 11000, 00076 AALTO www.aalto.fi Sammandrag av diplomarbete Författare Markus T. V. Nylund Titel Construction of a hardware-in-the-loop simulator for Azipod control system testing Examensprogram Utbildningsprogrammet för elektronik och elektroteknik Huvud-/biämne Elektronik med tillämpningar Kod S3007 Övervakare Prof. Seppo Ovaska Handledare TkD Juha Orivuori Datum 03.08.2016 Sidantal 9+90 Språk engelska Sammandrag Syftet med detta diplomarbete är att konstruera en simulator för Azipod® roderpropellern. Azipod® är ett varumärke av en roderpropeller med en elmotor som driver propellern. Hela roderenheten är belägen utanför fartygets skrov och det är möjligt att rotera roderpropellern obegränsat runt sin axel. Unikt för roderpropellrar är att drivkraften kan göras fullständigt elektriskt samt att roderpropellern är en dragande propeller till skillnad från tryckande konventionella propellrar. Dessa egenskaper ökar på ett fartygs energieffektivitet. Målet med arbetet är att bygga en (Azipod®) roderpropellersimulator och en tillhörande styrenhet som liknar fartygs styrenheter. Fokus för arbetet ligger på propulsionsstyrenheten. Simulatorn skall fungera liknande som den kommersiella produkten, men med mindre hårdvara. Fartygs styrkonsolpaneler samt alla nödvändiga mätinstrument virtualiseras. Ett extra program skapas för att möjliggöra stimulans för systemet för de virtualiserade mätinstrumenten. Detta program körs från en godtycklig dator som är uppkopplad till simulator nätverket. Simulering av Azipod® roderpropellern utförs av två sammankopplade motorer. Den ena motorn representerar en Azipod® rodermotor och den andra motorn belastar propulsionsmotorn.
