Summary


Naval Architect with degrees from Webb Institute of Naval Architecture (1973) and U.C. Berkeley (1979). Areas of specialization include surface-piercing propulsion systems, ocean thermal energy conversion, forensic naval architecture and small craft accident reconstruction.


Employment History


1989-present: Independent naval architecture consultant. Clients include Arneson Research, Arneson Marine, Morris Guralnick Associates and M. Rosenblatt & Son. Major projects include surface propulsion applications, sea trials and analysis of high speed amphibious vehicles, hybrid hydrofoil systems, tank testing of propulsion systems and vessel motion analysis. Provides expert testimony for lawsuits involving collision and accident reconstruction, drive failures, yacht sinking, fishing vessel capsizing and sinking, and injury resulting from vessel motions, propeller contact, sail handling and other causes.


1987-1989: Arneson Marine, Inc., 15 Koch Rd, Unit E, Corte Madera, CA 94925. (relocated to 29485 Airport Road, Eugene, OR 97402)
Applications Naval Architect. Responsible for speed and power estimates for a large number of projects involving high speed vessels of all types. Developed computer programs to estimate resistance of high-speed vessels, calculate propulsive efficiency of surface-piercing propellers and select propellers and driveline components. Responsibilities included support for sales staff, technical presentations and project management. Participated in mechanical design of new products. Collected and maintained database of sea trial results.


1977-1986: Morris Guralnick Associates Inc., 130 Sutter St., San Francisco, CA 94104 (now Archimedes Engineering, 2099 Grand St., Alameda CA 94501)
Senior Naval Architect. Responsible for projects including ship design, structural analysis, seakeeping analysis, tank testing and program development. Conducted ship inclining trials, on-sight structural tests and full scale ship motion experiments. Familiarity with a number of commercial finite element structural analysis programs for mainframe and microcomputers, as well as specialized hydrostatics and seakeeping programs. Developed in-house computer programs for hydrostatics, structural analysis and dynamic simulation.


Ocean Thermal Engery Conversion While at Morris Guralnic Associates, developed conceptual design for the 400 MW OTEC floating power plant under DOE and Lockheed contracts. Performed dynamic analysis of several configurations of OTEC cold water supply pipe designs, including wave response and vortex shedding. Participated in design and implementation of the 100 KW OTEC demonstration project.



1975-1976: University of California, Berkeley, Department of Naval Architecture.
Research Assistant. Performed tank tests and numerical simulations of large ship motions and capsizing in following seas.


1973: U.S. Coast Guard R&D Center, Groton, Conn.
Naval Architect. Conducted open-water and tank tests of full-scale recreational vessels. Tests involved maneuvering, dynamic roll response and flotation in support of revised small craft safety recommendations.
