What is Optimization of Composite Marine Propellers about?
This document discusses the optimization and experimental testing of composite marine propellers made of fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP). The researchers aimed to take advantage of the bend-twist coupling characteristic of FRP composites to allow the propeller pitch to change based on water pressure, improving propulsion efficiency at different ship speeds. Two stacking sequences were considered - a quasi-isotropic sequence and an optimum sequence obtained through genetic algorithm optimization. Experiments
