  • The Stepped Hull Hybrid Hydrofoil
    The Stepped Hull Hybrid Hydrofoil Christopher D. Barry, Bryan Duffty Planing @brid hydrofoils or partially hydrofoil supported planing boat are hydrofoils that intentionally operate in what would be the takeoff condition for a norma[ hydrofoil. They ofler a compromise ofperformance and cost that might be appropriate for ferq missions. The stepped hybrid configuration has made appearances in the high speed boat scene as early as 1938. It is a solution to the problems of instability and inefficiency that has limited other type of hybrids. It can be configured to have good seakeeping as well, but the concept has not been used as widely as would be justified by its merits. The purpose of this paper is to reintroduce this concept to the marine community, particularly for small, fast ferries. We have performed analytic studies, simple model experiments and manned experiments, andfiom them have determined some specljic problems and issues for the practical implementation of this concept. This paper presents background information, discusses key concepts including resistance, stability, seakeeping, and propulsion and suggests solutions to what we believe are the problems that have limited the widespread acceptance of this concept. Finally we propose a “strawman” design for a ferry in a particular service using this technology. BACKGROUND Partially hydrofoil supported planing hulls mix hydrofoil support and planing lift. The most obvious A hybrid hydrofoil is a vehicle combining the version of this concept is a planing hull with a dynamic lift of hydrofoils with a significant amount of hydrofoil more or less under the center of gravity. lit? tiom some other source, generally either buoyancy Karafiath (1974) studied this concept and ran model or planing lift.

  • Human Powered Hydrofoil Design & Analytic Wing Optimization
    Human Powered Hydrofoil Design & Analytic Wing Optimization Andy Gunkler and Dr. C. Mark Archibald Grove City College Grove City, PA 16127 Email: [email protected] Abstract – Human powered hydrofoil watercraft can have marked performance advantages over displacement-hull craft, but pose significant engineering challenges. The focus of this hydrofoil independent research project was two-fold. First of all, a general vehicle configuration was developed. Secondly, a thorough optimization process was developed for designing lifting foils that are highly efficient over a wide range of speeds. Given a well-defined set of design specifications, such as vehicle weight and desired top speed, an optimal horizontal, non-surface- piercing wing can be engineered. Design variables include foil span, area, planform shape, and airfoil cross section. The optimization begins with analytical expressions of hydrodynamic characteristics such as lift, profile drag, induced drag, surface wave drag, and interference drag. Research of optimization processes developed in the past illuminated instances in which coefficients of lift and drag were assumed to be constant. These shortcuts, made presumably for the sake of simplicity, lead to grossly erroneous regions of calculated drag. The optimization process developed for this study more accurately computes profile drag forces by making use of a variable coefficient of drag which, was found to be a function of the characteristic Reynolds number, required coefficient of lift, and airfoil section. At the desired cruising speed, total drag is minimized while lift is maximized. Next, a strength and rigidity analysis of the foil eliminates designs for which the hydrodynamic parameters produce structurally unsound wings. Incorporating constraints on minimum takeoff speed and power required to stay foil-borne isolates a set of optimized design parameters.

  • Villa Jovis a Capri (Napoli) *
    Archeoastronomia nelle ville imperiali romane: Villa Jovis a Capri (Napoli) * Marina De Franceschini (Archeologa, [email protected] , sito web: www.villa-adriana.net ) Giuseppe Veneziano (Osservatorio Astronomico di Genova, [email protected] , sito web: www.oagenova.it ) Ricostruzione ottocentesca della Villa Jovis, sull’isola di Capri, eseguita dall’architetto tedesco Carl Weichardt (1846-1906), tratta dall’opera Das Schloß des Tiberius und andere Römerbauten auf Capri , 1900 . * Il presente studio è stato presentato al XII Convegno Nazionale della Società Italiana di Archeoastronomia (S.I.A.) tenuto ad Albano Laziale, il 5-6 ottobre 2012 ed è in corso di stampa negli Atti relativi. Da tempo immemorabile l’isola di Capri è uno dei luoghi più belli del mondo; fra i primi ad apprezzarla vi fu l’imperatore Augusto che, come narra Cassio Dione 1, visitò l’isola nel 29 a.C., durante il viaggio di ritorno a Roma dopo la battaglia di Azio. La bellezza del sito unita ad un prodigio favorevole lo spinse a cedere alla città di Neapolis l’isola Aenaria (l’attuale Ischia) per avere in cambio Capri, che divenne così proprietà imperiale 2. Augusto scelse Capri per la villeggiatura estiva e la chiamò Apragòpolis , cioè “città del dolce far niente”. Il suo successore Tiberio invece la elesse a propria residenza permanente, quando decise di abbandonare Roma; Tacito racconta che vi possedeva ben dodici ville 3. Le enormi dimensioni dell’edificio di cui trattiamo provano che era il più importante dell’intera isola, ragion per cui da secoli è stato identificato con la « villa quae vocatur Jovis » di cui parla Svetonio 4.

In his biographical work The Lives of the Caesars, the literary artist Gaius ​ ​ Suetonius Tranquillus (c. 69-122 CE) provides a concise, informative, and illustrative depiction of the reigns of these two emperors. Suetonius’ particular literary technique and style used in the narration for both Nero and Caligula contributes to an enduring legacy of madness and depravity that has been influential in our understanding of these two rulers well into the modern age.
