Ocean Technology - A Digest. Revision 1.

Abstract

This document presents summaries of projects completed, underway, or in planning within the Naval Ocean Systems Center as of February 1981. It is intended to demonstrate the scope of NOSC's ocean engineering effort and provide specific examples of the Center's capabilities in this area. The projects described exemplify research, development, testing, and evaluation in the following areas: remotely controlled underwater vehicles, manned submersibles and panoramic visibility, launch and recovery of submersibles, pressure-resistant hulls and materials, diver equipment salvage systems, undersea imaging, untethered deep-ocean buoys, stationary floating ocean platforms. Additional projects include study of the effects of ocean submersion on radioisotope power units, application of system integration techniques to the development and deployment of undersea sensor arrays, and provision of engineering support for Fleet units and research and development facilities.
