The quiet power of a homogeneous wake field

摘要

Vibrations such as may be caused by the propeller of vessels where the sub merged stern has unfavourable flow char acteristics create the risk of damage to the structural components and the associated connections. They diminish the passenger comfort in the form of sound, and the me diocre hydrodynamics from the arising cracks result, of course, in a performance decrease of both ocean-going and inland vessels.
