Plots, Graphs, and Variables in Science
•
Plots or Graphs
- Generally the most
effective format for displaying and
conveying the interrelation of
experimental variables.
•
Sketches
- Quick and informal method of
sharing ideas with others or clarify
concepts for yourself. Free body
diagrams (FBDs) are an example.

X-axis (horizontal, independent variable)
Y-axis (vertical, dependent variable)
Divide major axes into appropriate divisions of 1, 2, 10,
10

If you get unreasonable values:
- check the units in the process of calculations
To avoid mistakes:
- know the units of each parameter
- understand the relationship between fundamental
dimensions and their units

Significant figures
Exact numbers
Measurements
Addition/subtraction
Multiplication/division
The number of
accurate
digits in a number
–
Example: 2.65 has 3 significant figures
–
Example: 10 has 1 or 2 , 10.0 has 3
Multiplication / Division: Use the same # of
significant figures as the number with the least # of
significant figures
Example: 20 x 3.444 = 69
Addition / Subtraction: Use the same # of
decimal places as the number with the least # of decimal
places
Example: 3.6 + 1.212 = 4.8

“Pressure” is the amount of force applied to a
given area (p=F/A)
In English units it is pounds/sq. ft. or
pounds/sq. in., or “psi”
Air pressure is ~
15 psi.
At 440 ft below
sea level it is ~
195 psi!
If an object is floating in water and the object and water
are both at rest, then the pressure exerted by the water
on the object is referred to as hydrostatic pressure and
is defined as:
P
hyd
=
gz where
= water density (lb-s
2
/ft
4
)
g = acceleration of gravity (ft/s
2
)
z = depth of object below the
water’s surface (ft)
Hydrostatic pressure acting over an area (A) results in
a Hydrostatic Force where F
hyd
= P

Bernoulli’s Equation:
Flow Energy + Kinetic Energy + Gravitational Potential Energy=Available Energy
(Assumes steady, frictionless, incompressible flow along a streamline)
p=hydrostatic pressure at any point in the stream
V=speed of the fluid at any point on the stream
g=acceleration of gravity
z=height of the streamline point above reference
=fluid density
Along a line of equal energy (a streamline)
in a fluid, the above is a constant.

Plots, Graphs, and Sketches (1.1) Plots or Graphs - Generally the most effective format for displaying and conveying the interrelation of experimental variables. Sketches - Quick and informal method of sharing ideas with others or clarify concepts for yourself. Free body diagrams (FBDs) are an example.
Plots and Graphs Means of Communicating Ideas Concisely Axes X-axis (horizontal, independent variable) Y-axis (vertical, dependent variable) Divide major axes into appropriate divisions of 1, 2, 10, 10X, etc Label with words, symbols, and units Minor axes should be distributed evenly
Sections 1.2 Functions: Independent variables (Cause /Input /Action) Dependent variables (Effect /Output / Reaction)
Dependent / Independent Variables Dependent variables (Y-axis) values will depend on the value of independent variables (X-axis). Notation in math and science - parameter name = f ( independent 1, independent 2, ) - example : p = f ( , z) Developing the relationship between the dependent and independent variable Experiment: collect raw data and draw the curve. apply fairing algorithm and interpolate regression analysis. Conservation law or theoretical principles Semi-empirical equation 1) identify the important parameter. 2) develop analytical equations through experiments
Sections 1.3 Area under the curve Slope of the curve
Area Under and Instantaneous Slope of a Curve Slope Area Under Curve
Section 1.4 Unit Systems S.I. Pound force - pound mass Pound - slug: What we will use Carry units through all calculations If the units are wrong, the answer is wrong
Units System Length meter (m) foot (ft) Time second (s) second (s) Force newton (N) pound (lb) pound force (lbf) Mass kilogram (kg) slug (slug) pound mass (lbm) gc kg 1 m SI 2s N lug b b l 2.2 3 1 s ft pound slug (BG) 2s l ft pound force pound mass foot (ft) second (s) m s 2 b l f 1 slug is defined as the mass that will be accelerated at a rate of 1 ft/s2 by a 1 lb force.
Unit Analysis If you get unreasonable values: - check the units in the process of calculations To avoid mistakes: - know the units of each parameter - understand the relationship between fundamental dimensions and their units Ruled Lines Method : LT = 4000 ft | 1.99 lb-s | 32.17 ft | 1 LT | ft^4 | s | 2240 lb = 114.32 LT
Section 1.5 Significant figures Exact numbers Measurements Addition/subtraction Multiplication/division
Significant Figures The number of accurate digits in a number Example: 2.65 has 3 significant figures Example: 10 has 1 or 2 , 10.0 has 3 Multiplication / Division: Use the same # of significant figures as the number with the least # of significant figures Example: 20 x 3.444 = 69 Addition / Subtraction: Use the same # of decimal places as the number with the least # of decimal places Example: 3.6 + 1.212 = 4.8
General Problem Solving Technique Write down applicable reference equation which contains the desired answer variable . Solve the reference equation for the answer variable . Write down additional reference equations and solve for unknown variables in the answer variable equation, if needed. Draw a quick sketch to show what information is given and needed and identify variables, if applicable. Rewrite answer variable equation, substituting numeric values with units for variables. Simplify this expanded equation, including units, to arrive at the final answer. Check the answer: Do units match answer? Is the answer on the right order of magnitude?
Section 1.6 Output Linear Interpolation Assume a straight line Use anchor point, output range, and domain fraction from anchor point to input value. Output=anchor+{range*fraction} y3= y1+ {(y2-y1)*(x3-x1)/(x2-x1)} y2 y3=? y1 x1 x3 Input Output y2 y3 y1=Anchor x1 x3 Input x2

Section 1.7 Scalars & Vectors Forces & Weight Point forces (centroid of a force distribution) Distributed forces (such as Pressure) Moments & Couples: Force Distance Static Equilibrium: Hydrostatic Pressure = Phyd = gz Fhyd = Phyd Area = 0 = 0 M F
Scalars and Vectors Scalar has only magnitude. - Example : mass, speed, work, energy Vector has its magnitude and direction. - Example : velocity, force, momentum, acceleration - Way of presentation : boldface, symbol with a half/full arrow ( notation should be consistent in the text.) F F F F Vectors can be resolved into scalar components in each principal dimension. F Fy F = F cos x F = F sin y Fx
Vectors - Vector symbols often have subscripts to better clarify. FB s resultant buoyant force resultant weight of ship = displacement s line of action FB - Naval Engineers uses to represent a change in a property. Ex ; : change in a draft due to parallel sinkage TPS
Forces, Moments, and Couples FORCE - a vector quantity with magnitude and a direction. = F m a MOMENT - force times a distance with respect to a given origin, i.e. d F M = COUPLE - a special case a of moment that results in pure rotation and no translation.
Forces 1000 lb F 20 ft 100 lb/ft 10 ft Point Force Distributed force and its resultant point force.
Moments F d Example of a moment applied with a wrench Increasing F or d will increase the magnitude of the Moment about the nut Moment = Force x Distance (M = F x d) Units: foot - pounds
Couples Two forces creating a couple F Couple = Force distance C = F d Units: foot-pounds d F The magnitude of a couple is calculated by multiplying the magnitude of one distance separating the two forces. one force by the The two forces must be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction for pure rotation without translation.
Static Equilibrium If an object is neither accelerating or decelerating then it is because the following 2 conditions are met: Sum of the forces = 0 Sum of the moments = 0 = 0 = 0 M F
Hydrostatic Pressure Pressure is the amount of force applied to a given area (p=F/A) In English units it is pounds/sq. ft. or pounds/sq. in., or psi Air pressure is ~ 15 psi. At 440 ft below sea level it is ~ 195 psi!
Hydrostatic Pressure & Force If an object is floating in water and the object and water are both at rest, then the pressure exerted by the water on the object is referred to as hydrostatic pressure and is defined as: Phyd = gz where = water density (lb-s2/ft4) g = acceleration of gravity (ft/s2) z = depth of object below the water s surface (ft) Hydrostatic pressure acting over an area (A) results in a Hydrostatic Force where Fhyd = Phyd A.
The Mathematical First, Second and Third Moments These integrals are used in mathematical descriptions of physical problems Where: s = some distance db = some differential property = summation db s 2 db s 3 db s
The Mathematical First and Second Moments In Naval Architecture: b could represent length, area, volume, or mass s is a length or distance dm x First Moment of Mass dA 2 y Second Moment of Area

Section 1.9 Bernoulli s Equation: 2 2 p V p V + + = + + = constant 1 1 2 2 gz gz 1 2 2 2 Along a line of equal energy (a streamline) in a fluid, the above is a constant. Flow Energy + Kinetic Energy + Gravitational Potential Energy=Available Energy (Assumes steady, frictionless, incompressible flow along a streamline) p=hydrostatic pressure at any point in the stream V=speed of the fluid at any point on the stream g=acceleration of gravity z=height of the streamline point above reference =fluid density
Bernoulli Equation 1 1 + + = + + 2 2 p V gz p V gz 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 Total pressure is constant in a fluid, if: inviscid flow (no viscosity) incompressible flow steady flow This gives us hydrostatic and hydrodynamic pressure. These are the water loads on the vessel.
Pressure Prediction Vertical pressure supports the vessel (lift versus weight) Horizontal pressure is thrust and drag These are the same as an aircraft!
Example Problem A 50ft wide, 100ft long barge on an even keel is divided into forward and aft compartments by a transverse bulkhead 60ft aft of the bow. The barge weighs 100LT empty with an even weight distribution. The forward tank is then filled to a height of 5ft and the aft tank to a height of 4ft with oil ( =1.80lb-s /ft4) What is the total weight of the barge? At what point (fore and aft) would this weight be applied? Which degrees of freedom for the barge were affected by loading the oil and in what direction?
Answer: 60ft 40ft 5ft deep 4ft deep 50ft Weightbow compt= gV= (1.80lb-s /ft4) (32.17ft/s )(50ft 60ft 5ft)(1LT/2240lb)= 388LT Weightaft compt= gV= (1.80lb-s /ft4) (32.17ft/s )(50ft 40ft 4ft)(1LT/2240lb) =207LT Weighttotal=388LT+207LT+100LT=695LT
60 ft 40 ft 5ft deep 4ft deep Answer: 50 ft 207LT @80ft 388LT@30ft 0ft 100LT@50ft Application point= = [(100LT 50ft)+(388LT 30ft)+(207LT 80ft)] 695LT = 47.8ft Barge became heavier, draft increased, barge sank in the heave direction. More weight was placed forward, so barge pitched forward.
Example Problem A Landing Craft Medium (LCM8) boat has an empty draft of 1 ft. A 60 LT tank is loaded into the boat. How many 250 lb combat ready Marines can board the LCM and still be able to cross a 4 foot shoal with 1 foot to spare on the way to the beach? Data: LCM dimensions: 75 ft long 21 ft wide 4.5 ft high Propulsion: 1300 HP from 2 diesels on separate shafts T= w/TPI (T=draft; w=weight; TPI= long tons/inch) 1 LT=2240 lb gsw=64 lb/ft3
Example Answer Displacement = Density x Submerged Volume Max change in draft = 4 foot shoal 1 foot draft empty 1 foot margin = 2 feet Vessel Submerged Volume = (75 ft)(21 ft )(1 ft) = 1575 ft3 60 LT + # Marines (62.4 lb/ ft3)(1575 ft3)=98280 lb (98280lb)/(2240lb/LT)= 43.875 LT (Empty) 1 foot draft empty 4 foot shoal 1 foot margin 1 foot margin Tons per Inch (TPI) = 43.875 LT /12 in= 3.656 LT/ in 1 foot draft empty 4 foot shoal (24 in)(3.656 LT/ in)= 87.74LT Max change in draft = 4 shoal 1 draft empty 1 margin = 2 87.74LT-60LT=27.74 LT is allowable 60 LTs + # Marines (27.74 LT)(2240 LT/lb)/(250lb/Marine)=248 Marines
Example Problem A 100 ft Barge with an empty weight distribution of 2LT/ft is loaded with the following additional loads: Y <-30ft-> <-40ft-> <-30ft-> 2LT/ft 4LT/ft 1LT/ft Empty Barge=2LT/ft X 0 100ft What is the total weight of the barge and where, along the length, is the center of gravity?
Example Answer Weight =(2LT/ft 100ft)+(2LT/ft 30ft)+(4LT/ft 40ft)+(1LT/ft 30ft) = 200LT+60LT+160LT+30LT=450LT Weighted Average of each weight: 200 LT 50ft= 10,000 LT-ft 60 LT 15ft= 900 LT-ft 160 LT 50ft= 8000 LT-ft 30 LT 85ft= 2550 LT-ft Sum=10,000+900+8000+2550 = 21450LT-ft Weighted Average=21450LT-ft/450LT=47.7ft Center of Gravity along X axis=47.7ft 450 LT Y 47.7ft Loaded Barge X 100ft 0
