Loose Cannon
From the bestselling author of The Ransom of Black Stealth One

Dean Ing returns to his fascination with experimental aircraft, but this time instead of the big jets of The Ransom of Black Stealth One, this one is about smaller, more insidious flying machines.

Rob Tarrant is a genius at designing flying things, and his work for General Standards Corporation has yielded more than one patent for the aviation giant. But Tarrant's hobby is building miniature UAVs -- Unmanned Arial Vehicles, tiny remote controlled drones. They could be toys, but Tarrant's latest version is so small, and so stable, that he thinks he might be able to mount other miniaturized technology on board: chemical analyzers, or listening devices.

Being a good company man, Tarrant plans to give his little flying machine design to General Standards. But from the moment he describes the project to his boss, his life becomes a living hell -- for Tarrant has succeeded in building a device that has been the subject of a dozen top secret research projects. And everyone wants to stop him before he shows his new toys to the whole world.

Advances in Unmanned Marine Vehicles (Iee Control Series) (Iee Control Series)
Unmanned marine vehicles (UMVs) include autonomous underwater vehicles, remotely operated vehicles, semi-submersibles and unmanned surface craft. Considerable importance is being placed on the design and development of such vehicles as they provide cost effective solutions to a number of littoral, coastal and offshore problems. This new book highlights the advanced technology which is evolving to meet the challenges being posed in this exciting and growing area of research..

Sensitivity Analysis of the Seakeeping Behavior of Trimaran Ships
This is a NAVAL POSTGRADUATE SCHOOL MONTEREY CA report procured by the Pentagon and made available for public release It has been reproduced in the best form available to the Pentagon. It is not spiral-bound, but rather assembled with Velobinding in a soft, white linen cover. The Storming Media report number is A516024. The abstract provided by the Pentagon follows: The dynamic response of the ship while operating in different sea conditions is one of the design parameters of a hull form. The objective of this thesis is to analyze the seakeeping response of trimaran hulls, A three- dimensional Rankine source panel method is used to achieve that, Seakeeping response characteristics of a typical trimaran with a variable separation ratio (the ratio of the lateral distance between center hull and side hull to the length of the ship) and with different longitudinal positions of the side hulls are analyzed, Heave and pitch motion response amplitude operators are evaluated for bow, bow quartering, and beam waves in irregular seas at various ship forward speeds, The corresponding heave and pitch responses were calculated by applying the Bretschneider spectral formulation Seakeeping behaviors of the generic trimaran are classified based on the plots of root mean square values for every position of the side hulls at different sea states in to determine optimal location of the side hulls with regards to seakeeping,.
