Cover Story: Numerous types of marine fouling organisms may be found on the submerged part of offshore structures, as depicted in this cover image. Identification of marine species on-site allows assumptions to be made about their growth rate and coverage, which helps engineers to obtain more accurate estimates of the wave loading. The main objective of this study was to capitalize on recent advances in deep learning by developing a technique that could detect and segment marine growth in imagery captured during underwater inspection campaigns. A key feature of this study was that the deep network was trained using thousands of synthetic images. The team behind this research has a long-held interest in measuring the extent of marine growth and assessing its impact from a structural loading standpoint. View this paper.

Accurate calculation of the roll damping moment at resonance condition is essential for roll motion prediction. Because at the resonance condition, the moment of inertia counteracts restoring moment and only the damping moment resists increase in the...
