What is SES Bow Seal Performance Experiments about?

Large experiments were conducted to investigate the physics of bow seal systems on surface effect ships. The experiments tested three seal geometries and two seal materials at pressures up to 3000 Pa and velocities up to 8m/s. The results showed that the seal cross-flow response exhibited stable and unstable behavior characterized by travelling waves and mode cycling. Analysis of high-speed video and motion capture data led to a proposed classification of primary seal response regimes. Scaling arguments ind
