AGENDA
  • ACTD Lessons Learned
  • Navy RD Accomplishments
  • Plans For Next 12 Months
  • Replacement System
  • Questions?

3
ACTD LESSONS LEARNED
  • ISO sized modules increased weight/assembly time
  • Structure needed to be strengthened for SS5
    survivability
  • Needed to improve alignment guides
  • Flexible connections required for larger
    platforms
  • Rigid connectors required strengthening and
    safety improvement
  • Additional fendering required for safety
  • Mooring and anchoring improvements required
  • Additional speed and bollard pull required
  • Deck jewelry and increased winch capacity
    required
  • Interface with legacy systems critical
  • Bow ramp deployment improvements required

4
NAVY LIGHTERAGE RD ACCOMPLISHMENTS
  • Designed improved rigid connector
  • Automated development of flexor connector
  • Designed alignment wedge for improved assembly
  • Reduced weight by complete redesign of modules
    and alternate material evaluation
  • Increased module strength based on hydrodynamic
    analyses/modeling
  • Improved power module with fendering, deck
    jewelry, and deck winch upgrades
  • Improved platform speed and bollard pull by
    optimizing hull form, propulsion system, and
    reducing weight
  • Manufacturing 3 prototype modules for test at sea

5
IMPROVED RIGID CONNECTORS
  • Designed by NSWCCD Carderock
  • Remote activation/manual backup
  • Improves safety through SS3
  • Provides greater load transfer to hull
  • Fabricated by CG Yard
  • Load tested at NSWCCD Oct-Nov 01
  • Government patent pending
  • Incorporates all ACTD lessons learned
  • SS5 survivable
  • Incorporated in 3 prototype modules
  • NSWCCD developing alignment/capture device works
    in conjunction with connectors to assist
    connection process

FLEXIBLE CONNECTORS
  • Required every 160 to reduce sea state loads
  • Sea State 5 survivable
  • Designed by NFESC from existing NL flexor
    connectors
  • Includes remote activation/manual backup
  • Adapted shear connection as alignment device
    for high
  • sea states
  • At-sea testing scheduled Mar Apr 02

9
NEW GENERATION DECK WINCH
  • Prototype procurement by NSWCCD Philadelphia
    (NAVSSES)
  • Manufacturer InterOcean Systems Company, San
    Diego, CA
  • Delivery scheduled Feb 02
  • At-sea testing scheduled Mar 02
  • Replaces obsolete deck winch on SLWT
  • Same footprint
  • Increased load to 30,000 lbs
  • Increased capacity
  • Increased wire rope size to 1-1/4
  • Larger and stronger capstan
  • Quieter

10
NEXT GENERATION DECK WINCH
11
ARTICULATING A-FRAME
  • Designed by NFESC and NAVSSES
  • Provides extension from 3 feet aft of WT bow to 5
    feet forward of bow
  • Improves operator safety
  • Increased rated load to 30,000 lbs

12
SPANNING RAMP
  • Concept development by NFESC
  • Must permit rolling stock to move between
    platforms and craft
  • Must be self contained, packaged in ISO flat-rack
  • Must be Sea State 3 capable
  • Must ensure ramp break-over angle permits traffic
    by all vehicles

13
WARPING TUG/CF POWER MODULE
  • One piece unit 24W x 8H x 90L
  • WT and CFPM use similar hull form and propulsion
    system
  • 2X more power than existing units
  • Bow thruster to provide better maneuverability
    (WT Only)
  • Improved handling
  • Pusher pads, better fendering, hogging-in winches
    (WT Only)
  • Calculated maximum craft speed full load 11 KTS
  • Current module weight estimates WT 121 LT, CF
    119 LT

17
NON-POWERED MODULE TYPES
  • 8W x 8H x 40L ISO modules too lively/heavy
  • Redesigned to larger 24W x 8W x 80L to reduce
    weight and improve safety/assembly
  • Four Non-powered module types
  • Bow ramp
  • Combination (male/female)
  • Intermediate
  • Ramp
  • Improved rigid/flexor connectors and alignment
    wedge

18
BOW RAMP MODULE
  • 24W x 8H x 80L
  • In concert with flexible connectors and hull
    shape, will provide for dry ramp on a 150 beach
    gradient
  • Module will provide a bow thruster for greater
    maneuverability around vessels and control in
    cross-current
  • Ramp break-over angle will permit all vehicles to
    transverse without incident
