Summary Report: Design and Development of U-Tube Stabilizer Tanks for the United States Coast Guard Dual Draft Icebreaker

摘要

The objective of the present work was to design and test a U-tube passive roll stabilizer tank for the United States Coast Guard Dual Draft Icebreaker. The purpose of the present document is to incorporate under one cover the several task reports produced in this work by Davidson Laboratory and Ship Research Incorporated, and to provide a brief summary. Owing to the early and intelligent allocation of space in the ship, the stabilizer as designed appears virtually optimum. (Author)
