Both the timely manufacture of defense systems and their subsequent on-line operability depend upon the availability of component parts. The growing problem of microelectronic component nonavailability is casting a shadow over logistics support to these systems. This paper will discuss the causes of the problem and provide some examples of cases confronted by the DoD logistics community. It will also identify some actions which have been taken in the past to manage the issue as well as initiatives now underway. Finally it will look at what lies ahead.

NAVAL ENGINEERS JOURNAL 1991年第3期103卷 136-140页

作者： JUMP, ME EMBERSON, WC Michael E. Jumpis the ship group leader in the Electromagnetic Pulse Branch Protection Systems Department Naval Surface Warfare Center White Oak Laboratory Silver Spring Md. He participated in the cooperative education program at the University of Maryland graduating in 1981 with a B.S. degree in electrical engineering. In 1985 Mr. Jump received his M.S. degree in electrical engineering from the Whiting School of Engineering Johns Hopkins University. During the EMPRESS II trial of USSDeyoDD-989 Mr. Jump functioned as the technical trial director and his responsibilities included insuring all trial objectives were appropriately met. William C. Embersonis a systems analyst in the Protection Systems Department of the Naval Surface Warfare Center White Oak Laboratory Silver Spring Md. He received his B.S. degree in electrical engineering from Purdue University in 1964 and his M.S. in electrical engineering at the Illinois Institute of Technology in 1971. Since joining NAVSWC in 1973 he has helped lead the Navy's EMP program to where it is today and has led the development of the center's nuclear warfare analysis capability. Currently he is responsible for the technical direction of an integrated system analysis for the entire spectrum of protection systems programs.

The Navy conducted an EMP (Electromagnetic Pulse) trial on a Spruance class destroyer (USS Deyo;DD-989) during July 1990 using the Electromagnetic Pulse Radio Frequency Environment Simulator for Ships (EMPRESS II). The Navy has selected a layered hardening approach consisting of platform level hardening and system level hardening to provide EMP survivability for the mission critical systems of surface ships. One key question is how much of the hardening can be allocated to and achieved by platform hardening? The other key questions are which systems will also require system level hardening and can system level hardening be effectively achieved? Prior to the trial, a platform level EMP hardening package was installed to evaluate the effectiveness of platform hardening techniques. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) fixes were installed when the EMI fixes were determined to provide system level hardening to emissions similar in frequency content to EMP. Temporary system level EMP hardening measures were also installed on selected combat systems and extensive pretrial EMP susceptibility assessments were performed on many of the ship systems. During the trial period, USS Deyo was subjected to over 700 sub-threat level pulses at increasing power levels. The highest test level during this trial was approximately 10dB below the EMP threat level. The induced transient currents exterior and interior to the ship and on a variety of systems were measured and used to evaluated the effectiveness of the platform hardening and system hardening. During the trial, a number of combat system operability tests were also conducted to help identify potential problem areas and evaluate system performance. This paper describes some of the events prior to and during the USS Deyo trial and the lessons learned as a result of the trial. The lessens learned from this trial will have a positive impact on future ship hardening efforts and EMP trials.

Ship design is often multidisciplinary involving several design elements with various types of objectives and constraints (O/C) some easily described as mathematical formulas, others better modeled as descriptive assertions. This paper describes a method based on fuzzy functions and an integrated performance index to model O/C using descriptive assertions to be used with mathematical formulas in optimization. Another issue addressed in this paper concerns the coordination of design elements when sequentially coupled, that is, when one leads the other and the performance of the follower depends greatly on the design of the leader. Based on neuro-fuzzy techniques, the method described here coordinates and optimizes sequentially coupled elements. The two methods are applied to machinery arrangement (MA) and pipe routing (PR). Preliminary models for optimization of MA and PR are described considering convenience, producibility: engine room size, interference and location as factors in the O/C set. Some test results from MA/PR applications are presented and discussed. The methods are generic and can be extended to other elements in ship design. They are mutually independent and may be used separately Two advantages of their use are an improvement in overall performance and a reduction in the need for redesign of elements.

Aboard current ships, such as the DDG 51, engineering control and damage control activities are manpower intensive. It is anticipated that, for future combatants, the workload demand arising from operation of systems under conditions of normal steaming and during casualty response will need to be markedly reduced via automated monitoring, autonomous control, and other technology initiatives. Current DDG 51 class ships can be considered as a manpower baseline and under Condition III typical engineering control involves seven to eight watchstanders at manned stations in the Central Control Station, the engine rooms and other machinery spaces. In contrast to this manning level, initiatives such as DD 21 and the integrated engineering plant (IEP) envision a partnership between the operator and the automation system, with more and more of the operator's functions being shifted to the automation system as manning levels decrease. This paper describes some human systems integration studies of workload demand reduction and, consequently, manning reduction that can be achieved due to application of several advanced technology concepts. Advanced system concept studies in relation to workload demand are described and reviewed including. Piecemeal applications of diverse automation and remote control technology concepts to selected high driver tasks in current DDG 51 activities. Development of the reduced ship's crew by virtual presence system that will provide automated monitoring and display to operators of machinery health, compartment conditions, and personnel health. The IEP envisions the machinery control system as a provider of resources that are used by various consumers around the ship. Resource needs and consumer priorities are at all times dependent upon the ship's current mission and the availability of equipment pawnbrokers.

The application of computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) techniques to the assembly and test of a low-cost, high-volume X-band Radar T/R module will be investigated by highlighting the differences between low frequency and microwave CAM methods, focusing on the difficulties of automated testing, evaluation, and circuit tuning. The problems encountered when implementing high-precision automated assembly and test methods, which include wire-bonding, soldering, piece-part placement, thin wafer GaAs probing, and a novel implementation of a microwave circuit laser-tuning technique will also be discussed. These CAM techniques, combined with integrated MMIC technology, are then used to illustrate a manufacturing philosophy targeted toward high-volume microwave module production.

Air cushion vehicles (ACVs) have operated successfully on commercial routes for about twenty years. The routes are normally quite short; the craft are equipped with radar and radio navigation aids and maintain continuous contact with their terminals. Navigation of these craft, therefore, does not present any unusual difficulty. The introduction of air cushion vehicles into military service, however, can present a very different picture, especially when external navigation aids are not available and the craft must navigate by dead reckoning. This paper considers the problems involved when navigating a high-speed air cushion vehicle by dead reckoning in conditions of poor visibility. A method is presented to assess the ACV's navigational capability under these circumstances. A figure of merit is used to determine the sensitivity of factors which affect navigation such as the range of visibility, point-to-point distance, speed, turning radius and accuracy of onboard equipment. The method provides simplistic but adequate answers and can be used effectively to compare the-capability and cost of alternative navigation concepts.

CONTRAROTATING ELECTRIC DRIVE FOR ATTACK SUBMARINES

引用

NAVAL ENGINEERS JOURNAL 1994年第2期106卷 45-50页

作者： DUTTON, JL The Author:is an electrical engineer with NNS ‘s advanced propulsion technology department. This group applies current and future technologies to naval and marine propulsion plant designs. Dutton received his BS degree in electrical engineering from the University of Virginia in 1978 and began working at NNS later that year. His previous tasks have included the AN/BSY-2 Combat System in the NNS Seawolf program and project leader of the NNS superconductivity program. An officer of the Cryogenic Society of America (Hampton Roads Chapter) he is presently working on advanced motor/generator designs and electrical distribution systems for shipboard applications at NNS.

This paper addresses certain issues relating to the viability of contrarotating (CR) electric drive for attack submarines. Topics include CR propulsion's potential benefits, electric drive advantages, and combining contrarotation with electric drive engine room concepts. CR propellers provide propulsive coefficient (PC) increases compared to open-type and performance-enhanced single propellers. The maximum submarine propulsion plant power capacity could therefore be reduced with this PC increase, potentially resulting in a smaller, lighter propulsion plant. This paper concludes, however, that contrarotation shows no propulsion plant weight savings against electric drive attack submarines with performance-enhanced single propeller designs. Weight improvements in the power generation plant and certain steam plant and electric plant systems are offset by weight increases from the additional shafting and bearing requirments for the CR shaft. Contrarotation is currently more advantageous for nonnuclear ships, where significant fuel savings are achievable with its higher PC.

While most of the theater ballistic missiles (TBM) in threat countries' inventories are of the shorter range SCUD varieties, mid- to long-range versions are currently in development in a number of third world countries. Threat potential exists in the following three battle spaces: endo-atmosphere (0-30 km), high endo-atmosphere (30-70 km) and exo-atmosphere (greater than 70 km). The inherent short range and low speed of endo-atmospheric threats match well with capabilities of SM-2 Block IVA, which equips the Navy with an area defense capability The exo-atmospheric TBMs are longer range and can threaten more targets which may be widely dispersed. Their higher velocities reduce response times dramatically Therefore, exo-atmospheric TBMs create the need for Standard Missile-3 (SM-3), which provides the Navy with theater wide defense capability. Defining its area and theater wide systems as clearly endo-atmospheric and exo-atmospheric systems allows the Navy to use derivatives of the Standard Missile Block IV to take full advantage of the conditions associated with each of these operating zones. Use of an existing missile and ship system baseline also allows use of the existing interface structure to minimize cost. To counter the endo-atmospheric TBMs, the SM-2 BLK TVA upgrades include an advanced imaging infrared (IIR) seeker, an improved fast-reaction auto pilot and a forward looking RE all in the same volume as the existing missile. The highly responsive SM-2 Block IVA missile, complemented with Aegis weapons systems modifications, provides capability against enemy aircraft and cruise missiles, as well as TBMs. Standard Missile-3 (SM-3) replaces the SM-2 Block TV warhead, radar and guidance section with a boosted third stage and an advanced kinetic warhead (KW). Operation in the exo-atmospheric region permits a KW design with autonomous guidance control and divert thrusters for high maneuverability and has the capability of achieving very high interceptor velocities.

NAVAL ENGINEERS JOURNAL 1990年第3期102卷 202-208页

作者： ALLEN, DW VINOSKI, WS OVERTON, BA David W. Allen:is a senior computer scientist at the Machinery Technology Division Westinghouse Electric Corporation Large Pa. He received the B.A. degree in mathematics from Grinnell College and the M.S. degree in computer science from the University of Pittsburgh. His career with Westinghouse has been divided between assignments in engineering and computer applications. Mr. Allen has published eight technical papers. He received the George Westinghouse Signature A ward of Excellence for his work on the development of the GAGES computer program for designing propeller gages. He is a member of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). Walter S. Vinoski:is a project engineer at the Machinery Technology Division Westinghouse Electric Corporation Large Pa. and was instrumental in the development of the GAGES computer program. He was awarded the George Westinghouse Signature Award of Excellence for his work on the GAGES program. Mr. Vinoski has six years of marine propulsion system experience specifically with propellers. He earned a B.S. degree in electronics engineering and minored in mathematics at the Ohio Institute of Technology. He is a member of the American Society of Naval Engineers. Bernard A. Overton:graduated from North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University Greensboro N.C. in 1958 with a B.S. degree in mechanical engineering. Within two years of joining the U.S. Army Mr. Overton was honorably discharged as a first lieutenant. Mr. Overton worked seven years at Philadelphia Naval Shipyard in the following areas: shafting shafting alignment bearing reactions noise and vibration surveys propellers and propeller blade gage designs. In 1967 Mr. Overton transferred to the Navy Engineering Center. He has worked on main propulsion devices such as water jets propellers (both submarine and surface ship) and propeller blade gages. Mr. Overton was responsible for the establishment of the Naval Inspectors Propeller Certif

One of the most complicated forms encountered in engineering design is that of the marine propeller. The complexities arise from the complicated hydrodynamic surfaces of the propeller blades and the complicated manner in which the blades are oriented with and attached to the hub. Where propeller blades are attached to the hub, the blade shape is blended into the shape of the hub. The geometry of this region is particularly complicated. The shape of the blend is called a fillet, and the blending region is called the fillet region. Sheet metal gages conforming to various blade surface contours are used in the manufacture and inspection of propellers. Five different types of gages define the shape of the propeller in different regions. Fillet gages are such gages that define the shape of propeller blades in the fillet region. This paper describes a new computer-aided method for designing fillet gages. Previous methods of fillet gage design required the designer to follow a complicated layout procedure of determining where a particular unfilleted blade contour intersected the hub. The design of the fillet was then done in another layout procedure. Newly developed numerical procedures incorporated in a computer program have reduced the time required to design a complete set of gages (including fillet gages) from up to several weeks to hours.

NAVAL ENGINEERS JOURNAL 1983年第3期95卷 51-62页

作者： SLEMON, CS ABBOTT, JW Charles S. Slemon:graduated from Brown University with an Sc.B. Degree in Physics and did graduate work in semiconductors at the School of Electrical Engineering Cornell University sity receiving an M.S. degree. In 1972 he received an NSF grant to study the temperature dependence of crystal structures and while at Cornell he developed various fabrication and testing techniques with new semiconductor compounds. Upon joining Tetra Tech Inc. in 1976 he established and is responsible for their fiberoptic laboratory. He has carried out many programs involved in fiberoptic links for secure communication for various government agencies in which he authored numerous classified reports and developed special fiberoptic devices and system. He has also carried out studies and hardware development and evaluation programs for the military and commercial clients including marine and deep sea uses of fiberoptics for NOSC ONR and other off-shore industry contractors. For NAVSEA he authored several reports investigating the potential uses and advantages that fiberoptic technology offers to Navyshipboard operations. Mr. Slemon has published many articles and made numerous presentations in the field of fiberoptics. He has also taught several short courses on the subject and is the holder of several patents. Mr. Jack W. Abbott:received his BSME degree from Stanford University in 1960 and his Masters (MEA) degree from George Washington University in 1975. He holds a Professional Engineer License in the state of California. Mr. Abbott served as a naval officer – aboard a destroyer for 3 years.

This article introduces the concept of a truly Universal Signal Distribution Network. The emergence of fiberoptic technology as a viable signal transmission medium now gives the N avy the opportunity to use Fiber Optic Cabling and Switching (FOCAS) to implement a universal network. A FOCAS Network can handle all present or future shipboard signal distribution architectures such as point-to-point or data bus. Furthermore, compared to existing cable installations, this network offers lower cost through reduction of the number of cables, weight, and volume, freedom from interference and EMP effects, increased redundancy, and higher operational flexibility. In addition, it will easily satisfy all future expansion or changes in signal distribution by providing at least a ten fold increase in data rate capacity over existing electrical cabling. This last feature alone holds the potential for allowing upgrading and conversion of modern combat systems without need for adding new cabling in the ship. Along with the introduction of the concept of a Universal FOCAS network and its practical benefits and capabilities, this article presents a trade-off between the Radar Data Distribution Network on the FFG and an analogous FOCAS network. Though far from optimized, the resultant FOCAS network shows that the conversion of existing shipboard networks to FOCAS is straightforward and provides a reduction of at least 90% in cable volume and weight and lower cost in cable purchase and installation.
