At DLBA, it is our privilege and our pleasure to stay on top of the latest trends and technologies and be in a league with others who are doing the same. We are performing for DARPA on the No Manning Required Ship (NOMARS) program to look into the future and explore what capabilities can be achieved with a vessel designed without the ability to carry crew or guests on board.
Our Thoughts on this Paper
A planing vessel is a high-performance vehicle. A high-performance vehicle is a vehicle where dynamic forces acting on the vehicle exceed the static forces. For planing hulls, dynamic lift from pressure on the hull bottom provide more vertical force than the buoyant force of water.
The combination of the DLBA and Leidos structural engineering capabilities brings significant benefit to our customers and their programs. The Leidos team brings additional composite engineering capability (2 composite structural engineers and a composite manufacturing engineer, formerly of Gurit (USA) Inc.).

DLBA is joining forces with the Jon Duffie, Coleman Walker, Tim Kamas, and the whole Duffie team once again, providing naval architecture and engineering support for a new build. DLBA provides vetting for the hull form, focusing on efficiency and seakeeping, providing input where warranted.

Be it on land, water, or even in air, the drive to become more sustainable and environmentally friendly is becoming more important every day.
The International Conference on Fast Sea Transportation (FAST) was held in Providence, Rhode Island on October 26th and 27th, and we at DLBA were thrilled to attend.
