    Holistic approach to project CWC with altair
    (Altair Technology Conference, 2015-07) Bhavaraju, Pradeep J. S.
    A Circulating Water Channel (CWC) generates a controlled flow environment and is used for various hydrodynamic research activities including flow around ships, study of fishnets, etc. The current paper utilizes various modules of ALTAIR HYPERWORKS to provide a holistic solution in completing the project i.e, modelling using SOLIDTHINKING, flow analysis across the working section of the CWC using ACUSOLVE, and developing a mechanism to generate ship motions with MOTIONSOLVE. One of the many experiments that can be conducted with the CWC is an internal tank sloshing test. A free surface flow analysis is performed for a 2D tank using RADIOSS solver validating the same with existing experimental results.

    Qualitative and quantitative analysis in comparing prospective CWCs
    (International Journal of Innovation Research & Development, 2015-07) Bhavaraju, Pradeep J. S.
    Qualitative analysis either involves traditional deductive logic beginning with assumptions and carefully deducing an outcome from them, or, a holistic approach in which all the factors and criteria involved are laid out in advance in a hierarchy or in a network system that allows for dependencies. Quantitative analysis involves estimating Life Cycle Costs to arrive at an economic equitable assessment of competing design alternatives considering total expenditures over its-entire economic life. The paper applies ualitative and Quantitative concepts to choose prospective designs of two configurations of the CWC i.e, the Vertical and the Horizontal orientations. Solutions are proposed to evaluate overall performance of the CWC.
