  2. Underwater acoustic positioning system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underwater_acoustic...

    Accuracy depends on transducer spacing and mounting method. When a wider spacing is employed as when working from a large working barge or when operating from a dock or other fixed platform, the performance can be similar to LBL systems. When operating from a small boat where transducer spacing is tight, accuracy is reduced.

  3. Transom (nautical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transom_(nautical)

    Vertical transom and stern of a modern cargo ship. In some boats and ships, a transom is the aft transverse surface of the hull that forms the stern of a vessel. Historically, they are a development from the canoe stern (or "double-ender") wherein which both bow and stern are pointed. Transoms add both strength and width to the stern.

  4. Long baseline acoustic positioning system - Wikipedia

    The transponders reply, and the replies are received again by the diver station (A). Signal run time measurements now yield the distances A-B, A-C and A-D, which are used to compute the diver position by triangulation or position search algorithms. The resulting positions are relative to the location of the baseline transducers.

  5. Ultrasonic transducer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasonic_transducer

    The transducers typically use piezoelectric transducers [3] or capacitive transducers to generate or receive ultrasound. [4] Piezoelectric crystals are able to change their sizes and shapes in response to voltage being applied. [3] On the other hand, capacitive transducers use electrostatic fields between a conductive diaphragm and a backing plate.

  6. Sonar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonar

    The sonar was a large array of 432 individual transducers. At first, the transducers were unreliable, showing mechanical and electrical failures and deteriorating soon after installation; they were also produced by several vendors, had different designs, and their characteristics were different enough to impair the array's performance.

  7. Underwater locator beacon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underwater_locator_beacon

    A 4-inch (100 mm) underwater locator beacon, with ballpoint pen for scale A ULB attached to a bracket on a cockpit voice recorder. An underwater locator beacon (ULB), underwater locating device (ULD), or underwater acoustic beacon is a device that emits an acoustic pulse intended to guide searchers equipped with a suitable receiver to the location of the beacon underwater.

  8. Underwater acoustic communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underwater_acoustic...

    Example of multi-path propagation. Underwater acoustic communication is a technique of sending and receiving messages in water. [1] There are several ways of employing such communication but the most common is by using hydrophones.

  9. Strake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strake

    On a vessel's hull, a strake is a longitudinal course of planking or plating which runs from the boat's stempost (at the bows) to the sternpost or transom (at the rear). The garboard strakes are the two immediately adjacent to the keel on each side.
