Review and Recommendations for the Interagency Ship Structure Committee's Fiscal 1982 Research Program and Five-Year Research Program Plan

摘要

The Ship Research Committee (SRC) of the National Research Council provides technical services covering program recommendations, proposal evaluations, and project advice to the interagency Ship Structure Committee (SSC), composed of representatives from the U.S. Coast Guard, the Naval Sea Systems Command, the Military Sealift Command, the Maritime Administration, the American Bureau of Shipping, and the U.S. Geological Survey. This arrangement requires continuing interaction among the SRC, the SSC, the contracting agency, and the project investigators to assure an effective program to improve marine structures through an extension of knowledge of materials, fabrication methods, static and dynamic loading and response, and methods of analysis and design. This report contains the Ship Research Committee's recommended research program for five years, FY 1981-1984 with specific prospectuses for FY 1982. Also included is a brief review of 24 active and 5 recently completed projects. (Author)
