Artificial Hardwood Replacement for Dry Docking Blocks
This grant opportunity seeks the development of a new material to replace hardwood blocks used in dry docking ships. The material must withstand compression forces applied perpendicular to the direction of the wood grain. While the current choice, wood, is used because it effectively manages these forces, the new material does not need to mimic the appearance or grain structure of wood.
Develop a hardwood replacement compound for the blocks being used in dry docking ships. This loading is perpendicular to the wood grain and in compression only. Wood is used for its compliance under these forces. The replacement compound product does not need to look like wood or have a grain.
