Hull
HULL is a manuscript driven by bodily and imagined notions of witness that marry and complicate the historical and public with the personal and private. HULL is the buoyancy of a paradox; the un-shakable hyper corporeality of a body both Black and woman, and the social and spiritual liminality of …

Design of paired column semisubmersible hull
… of the recent column stabilized semisubmersible hull configured to allow top-deck well head compatibility for oil reserves in deep waters. Its unique ability to maintain reduced vertical motion in extreme weather conditions despite its hull size and payload create a high payload to motion ratio, …

Approximating the Heston-Hull-White Model
The hybrid Heston-Hull-White (HHW) model combines the Heston (1993) stochastic volatility and Hull and White (1990) short rate models. Compared to stochastic volatility models, hybrid models improve upon the pricing and hedging of longdated options and equity-interest rate hybrid claims. When the …

Ship hull resistance calculations using CFD methods
… was calculated at various speeds. The bare hull model was unconstrained in heave and pitch, thus allowing the simulation to achieve steady dynamic attitude for each speed run. The effect of dynamic attitude on the resistance is considered to be significant and requires accurate prediction. …

Innovative hull design for servicing offshore wind turbines
… thesis investigated the motion of novel ship hull designs, and quantified parameters that influence the transfer of personnel from a wind farm service vessel (WFSV) to a wind turbine. To complete the work for this thesis numerical, and physical techniques were utilised to model WFSV designs at …

Efficient implementation of the Heston-Hull & White model
… for the characteristic function of the Heston-Hull&White model introduced by Grzelak and Oost- erlee (2011). Fourier-Cosine expansion pricing, due to Fang and Oosterlee (2008), is then used to price contingent claims under this model, which is implemented in MATLAB. We find that the model is …

Robust control of a flexible-hull propulsion system
The Charles Stark Draper Laboratory is continuing the research done on fish-like propulsion systems with the Vorticity Control Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (VCUUV) project. The VCUUV is a fully autonomous robotic fish, which employs a flexible tail structure for propulsion and maneuvering. This …

Political correspondence relating to Kingston-upon-Hull, 1678-1835
… aspects of political life at Kingston-upon-Hull between 1678 and 1835, and is part history and part edition. The historical section is an essay on the character and course of Hull politics between these dates. The edition on which that essay is based, consists of a selection from the …

Hull Shape Optimization for Wave Resistance Using Panel Method
… has been an opportunity for optimizing ship hulls using iterative methods of design and modification. A method for calculating resistance for a given hull geometry and to optimize it using optimization algorithms are required for achieving better hulls. The resistance is calculated using a …

Regulation of reserve carbohydrates in hull-less barley grain
… carbohydrate metabolism and grain development in hull-less barley. Hull-less barley was investigated as it is more suitable for food use due to absence of maternal (husk) tissues. High (1,3;1,4)-β-glucan barley grain (cv Torrens) was successfully generated by over-expressing HvCslF6, via …

Examination of hull forms for an Offshore Nuclear Plant
… the advantages and disadvantages of different hull forms that the ONP may use in an effort to identify an optimal balance between hull configuration and stability. Multiple platform designs were modeled to compare the differences in seakeeping and stability. These variants explored the …
