ONR high-tech systems find their missions

Article Abstract:

Afloat Lab is a test platform for new shipboard technologies run by the US Office of Naval Research (ONR) and though small in scale, mirrors large Navy ships in terms of electronics, navigation systems, and other components and is thus well suited for testing new systems. Recently, Afloat Lab displayed 20 types of systems backed by ONR including the once put out to pasture Sea Fox in its new form.

Company claims big gains in ship anti-friction tech

Article Abstract:

The drag-reducing system developed by the Cortina Corp. that will help ships to move faster in water while burning less fuel is presented. An improvement on the existing friction-reducing methods that use either polymers or microbubbles is that the Cortina fluidics ejector uses both polymers and microbubbles as friction reducers.
