2022年8月25日 · BAR Technologies has also patented FOSS (Foil Optimisation and Stability System), which combines hydrofoil technology with hull hydrodynamic optimization. The resulting system achieves significant hydrodynamic efficiency …

BAR Technologies have furthered this technology and launched a product they call FOSS – foil optimized stability system. Hull efficiency is increased by reducing fuel consumption and seakeeping is vastly improved by dampening pitch and roll

2020年11月23日 · Addition of BAR Technologies’ advanced foil optimisation and stability system (FOSS) to Chartwell 24 enhances a proven formula for offshore wind vessel support. Class-leading offshore energy support vessel (OESV), operator, Seacat Services, has ordered two further Chartwell 24 vessels to complement its growing fleet.

Low-Earth Orbit Flight Test of an Inflatable Decelerator (LOFTID) is a technology demonstration of an inflatable aeroshell to slow down and protect heavy and valuable payloads when entering atmospheres such as those of the Earth and Mars. The ultimate project goal is to enable future payload deliveries to Mars.

2022年6月13日 · The multihull newbuild, Seacat Columbia, is the first BARTech30 CTV designed by BAR Technologies in partnership with Chartwell Marine. The 30-meter-long features BAR Technologies' FOSS (foil optimized stability system), which enhances seakeeping and reduces fuel usage and emissions, according to the designer.

2020年11月23日 · Offshore energy support vessel (OESV) operator, Seacat Services, has ordered two further Chartwell 24 vessels equipped with a new foil optimisation and stability system (FOSS) designed by BAR Technologies.

B. Fiber Optic Sensing System (FOSS) The FOSS developed at AFRC is used to interrogate the continuous FBG optical fiber and to provide strain and/or temperature data. It is capable of simultaneously and continuously interrogating up to eight 40-foot optical fibers at 0.25-inch spatial resolution for a total of 16,000 sensors per

2020年11月24日 · The first two vessels with BAR Technologies’ FOSS, announced in September 2020, will be named Seacat Columbia and Seacat Cambria. The latter pair will be named Seacat Sceptre and Seacat Sovereign.
