"Application of Autonomous Remotely Operated,
Vehicles for Detailed Exploration of Mineral Deposits"
Marek Narewski, Lech A. Rowiński
Abstract
Various tools are needed for mineral deposits investigation.
Different types of free fall, bounce and suspended grabbers
are widely used nowadays. Autonomous ROV with ability
of collecting nodule samples seems to be the best tool
for detailed exploration of mineral site. Geologist will
be able to get detailed information regarding sea bottom
characteristics, nodule density and metal content in precisely
located points. Consequently, decision making and risk
analysis will be improved.... |

"Underwater Technology Developments in Ship Research
Institute of Technical University of Gdansk"
Marek Narewski, Lech A. Rowiński
Abstract
During the last 20 years polish interest in underwater
activity was limited to some selected areas, however some
interesting achievements had been made. Manned submersibles
like DELFIN and underwater habitats MEDUZA are the best
known. Other projects which were completed in mid 70-ies
include:
- towed, manned, wet submersible for underwater observation
CZAPLA
- manned submersible LTS-7 GRZES for fishing gear observation
- decompression chambers for miliary and civil applications
- submarine rescue ships for Polish and other Navies
Decompression chambers were original polish design. Staff
of the Ship Research Institute was engaged in design phase
of those projects.[l] Four types of chambers were designed
including foldable one, as well as one and two compartment
chambers... |

"JETTISON EMERGENCY CAPSULE" Lech A.
Rowinski
Abstract
The jettison emergency capsule is a special device designed
for rescuing life under the most difficult weather conditions.
The use of slinging pyrotechnic agents makes the launching
of the capsule extremely fast, also ensuring that it lands
at a consi-derable distance from the object in danger.
The designs brought into practical use enable the capsule
to be ejected with 16 persons inside from a height of
up to 30 m. The personnel inside' is protected from environmental
conditions and such agents as fire and poisonous gases.... |

"A Measurement of 3-D Water Velocity Components
During ROV Tether Simulations in a Test Tank Using Hydroacoustic
Doppler Velocimeter"
Leszek Kwapisz, Marek Narewski, Lech A.Rowinski, Cezary
Zrodowski
Abstract
A computer simulation of ROV tethers performance could
be done more precisely if velocity field of water flowing
around the tether cable is known. The paper describes
operation and performance of the doppler acoustic velocimeter
ADVlab. A brief outline of the procedures and related
problems with determination of 3-D velocity components
in the test tank is described..... |

"Submersible propulsion and energy: FROM LTS-7
TO UKWIAŁ" Key words: motion, submersibles, propellers,
sources of energy Lech A.Rowinski
Abstract:
There is nothing exceptional in underwater technology
except for environment. But this single factor means very
difference, that creates many problems to underwater system
designers and operators. For many years Department of
Underwater Technology has been involved in design and
construction of various submersible crafts. They ranged
from 35 kg diver towing vehicle to 1500 Mg manganese nodule
mining vehicle. All the vehicles designed require a kind
of propulsor and adequate source of energy. Different
solutions were exploited for every considered application.
In most cases several prototypes were built and modified
before fully acceptable solution was found. Experience
gained during 30 years of work with live systems gives
the University substantial capabilities in new developments
and education. Paper describes most significant vehicle
designs and outlines principal problems encountered in
the area of interest of this conference... |

"New designs of underwater vehicles from Underwater
Technology Department, Technical University of Gdansk"
Leszek Matuszewski M.Sc.
Abstrakt
New designs have been recently added to wide range of
submersibles developed at Underwater Technology Department.
After completion of KORAL AT ROV, an autonomous vehicle
prototype, for Baltic Sea environment monitoring, is being
currently developed. Paper describes operational requirements
for the craft and its principal components. Vehicle control
by remote means is not discarded however. This technology
has been adopted for a sea mine destruction system with
disposable low cost vehicle used for mine identification
and destruction. Other interesting development is the
newest version of diver towing vehicle. The vehicle is
constantly improved and modified to different requirements
regarding range and special equipment. The latest design
is shortly described... |

"Submersible
conceptual design using computer aids" Lech A.
Rowinski Abstract
Submersible design algorithm has been analysed in details.
As result a program named DVCAD is proposed. It aids designer
work in most creative phases of its work. While intended
principally for submersibles, the approach can be adopted
for work with other complex systems which can be described
as well known in principles but of arrangement difficult
to define. This would however require changes in expert
procedures and component database. Paper describes principal
problems which must be solved to balance requirements
for high flexibility, easy to read graphical interface,
real time operation and software as well as hardware limitations... |

"Mine
counter vehicles for Baltic navy" Key words: submersibles,
remote control, mine neutralisation. Lech A. Rowinski,
T. Kubaty Abstract:
During two great wars of last century Baltic waters were
mined extensively by all navies acting in the area. Some
of the mines were never recovered. This can also happen
in future. This is a reason for counter mine forces in
Polish Navy. For some time new technologies are being
introduced. Naval mine neutralisation technology is very
cost sensitive. Two mine counter systems presented, were
developed with this constraint in mind. While total operational
costs depend strongly on mass and dimensions, remotely
operated vehicles of the systems are comparatively small.
Descriptions of the systems are followed by indication
of important similarities that allow alternative use of
the vehicles from platforms and consoles. Capability of
joint operations is indicated and explained. Operators
trainer that can be used to educate operators of both
system is therefore a logic solution. This is based on
computer simulation of images presented on console screens.
