TITLE: " Thirty years of Naval
Propulsor Hydrodynamic Research At the Naval Surface Warfare Center,
Carderock Division" |
ABSTRACT: Dr. Stuart Jessup will speak on the numerous activities of the Navy's propulsor design and
research community since 1976. This will include
Naval fleet class propeller designs, and numerous research efforts to
improve Naval propeller performance. Research areas will include
propeller blade surface pressure measurements for the validation of
potential based prediction codes, measurement of blade flows using LDV
to support RANS code development, and crashback studies to advance the
use of LES, using PIV and unsteady load measurement techniques.
SHORT BIO: Dr. Jessup received his B.S. and M.S. from MIT in Ocean Engineering in
1974 and 1976, and his Ph.D. at Catholic university of America in 1989.
Dr. Jessup has been a member of the International Towing Tank
Conference, received the David W. Taylor award in 1996, the Navy
Meritorious Civilian Service award in 2000, and became a member of the
National Academy of Engineering in 2007. Dr. Jessup is currently the
Senior Scientist for Hydrodynamics at the Naval Surface Warfare Center.
