Who We Are… MMC was founded in 2006 Four employees, two+ associates MMC Specializes in: Engineering analyses of barges, boats, ships Design, stability, performance, seakeeping Engineering analyses of offshore energy systems Hydrokinetic energy systems (waves, tidal – moving water) Platforms for offshore wind systems Support vessels for offshore wind systems
What We Do: Marine Seakeeping Analyses: Analyze barge motion for lashing design Find accelerations, check strength of cargo restraints
What We Do: Performance Analysis for High Speed Boats Develop/Market POWERSEA Time-Domain Simulator Performance, stability, shock/vibration
POWERSEA Navy Project MMC/SAIC/Combatant Craft validation of POWERSEA results
What We Do: Instrumentation for Marine Environment Measure hydrodynamic loads on moored and fixed structures Measure shock and vibration on high speed craft Collect oceanographic data for offshore energy site evaluation Figure Tekscan A 201 Standard Flexi. Force® Sensors
Demonstration Project: Single-Point Wave Energy Converter Buoy moves vertically (heave motion) Air is compressed in center pipe Drives turbine to create electricity Efficiency depends on relative heave motion of WEC If WEC moves up when water goes down, get maximum compression Design Issues John Brooke, Vice-President, Engineering Committee on Oceanic Resources, Wave Energy Conversion, 2003. Mooring system Sea State Response (RAO)

Creating a Surface Model with Rhino 3 D
Building AQWA Model Import Rhino 3 D model (IGES) into ANSYS Design Modeler Create surfaces, waterline cutplane Calculate hydrodynamic diffraction using AQWA (potential flow theory)
“Meshing” for AQWA Analysis
AQWA: Mooring System Analysis
OWC/WEC Analysis Results Resonating OWC: Movie: “ Ansys. WBU 2011 -08 -09 17 -54 -39 -35. avi”
Demonstration Project: Seakeeping Study
Creating a CAD Model Using Multi. Surf
Building a Model Boat Create full-size patterns (“lofting”) of frames and keel from CAD model Cut parts from marine plywood, glue together Wrap with Kevlar expanded core material Cover with 24 -oz fiberglass/epoxy, sand, paint Install radios, motors, machinery, ballast
Free-Running Radio-Controlled Model • R/C Model of R/V Hugh R. Sharp, Univ. of Delaware • Twin Schottel Rudderpropulsors • Forced roll mechanism to test seakeeping • Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) to capture motion
Results of Model Tests Tested bilge-keels, fins of various sizes Conclusion: Require active roll mitigation system
