David Breslin and Ye-Ling Wang review the global warming reduction capability of available and potential technologies. Greg Toms, Matthew Frank, and Thomas Bein combine to document Navy R&D efforts to convert existing shipboard CFC-114 air conditioning plants to an ozone-friendly alternative refrigerant. Fred Oberman and Cliff Baker present a hybrid manning analysis and design approach used as a part of early ship requirements definition and analysis of alternatives (AoA). Victor Dubrovsky and Konstantin Matveev formulate an approach for designing fast, long-range ships by determining achievable speed as a function of the total weight of a power system at fixed power and pay-load.
