Submarines & Submariners – An IntroductionThe Enemy Below – Submarines Sink Ships!Course # S154November 17-19, 2014Laurel, Maryland$1790 (8:30am - 4:30pm)"Register 3 or More & Receive $100 00 eachOff The Course Tuition."SummaryThis three-day course is designed for engineersentering the field of submarine R&D, and/orOperational Test and Evaluation, or as a review foremployees who want a system level overview. It is anintroductory course presenting the fundamentalphilosophy of submarine design, submerged operationand combat system employment as they are managedby a battle-tested submarine organization that all-in-allmake a US submarine a very cost-effective warship atsea and under it.Today's US submarine tasking is discussed inconsonance with the strategy and policy of the US, andthe goals, objectives, mission, functions, tasks,responsibilities, and roles of the US Navy as they areso funded. Submarine warfare is analyzed referencingsome calculations for a Benefits-to-Cost analysis, inthat, Submarines Sink Ships!Also, the principles of the Calculus of Acoustics willbe presented as a primer along with a description ofthe acoustic devices that sense, and input, Sound inthe Sea for signal processing by this Hole in theOcean.What You Will Learn• Submarine organization and operations.• Fundamentals of submarine systems andsensors.• Differences of submarine types (SSN/SSBN/SSGN).• Future operations with SEALSSum.• Nuclear-powered submarines versus dieselsubmarines.• Submarine operations in shallow water• Required improvements to maintain tacticalcontrol.• http://www.aticourses.com/sub_virginia.htm.From this course you will gain a betterunderstanding of submarine warships beingstealth-oriented, cost-effective combatsystems at sea. Those who have worked withspecific submarine sub-systems will find thatthis course will clarify the rationale andessence of their interface with one another.Further, because of its introductory nature,this course will be enlightening to those justentering the field. Attendees will receivecopies of the presentation along with somerelevant white papers.InstructorCaptain Raymond Wellborn, USN (retired) servedover 13 years of his 30-year Navy careerin submarines. He has a BSEE degreefrom the US Naval Academy and aMSEE degree from the NavalPostgraduate School. He also has anMA from the Naval War College. He hadtwo major commands at sea and oneashore: USS MOUNT BAKER (AE 34), USS DETROIT(AOE 4), and the Naval Electronics SystemsEngineering Center, Charleston. He was ProgramManager for Tactical Towed Array Sonar Systems andProgram Director for Surface Ship and Helicopter ASWSystems for the Naval Sea Systems Command inWashington, DC. After retirement in 1989, he was theDirector of Programs for ARGOTEC, overseeing themanufacture of advanced R&D models for largesubsonic acoustic projectors. From 1992 to 1996, hewas a Senior Lecturer in the Marine EngineeringDepartment of Texas A&M, Galveston. Since 1996, hehas been an independent consultant for InternationalMaritime Affairs. He has been teaching this coursesince 1991, and has many testimonials from attendeessponsored by DOD, NUWC, and other agencies that allattest to the merit of his presentation. He also is theauthor of several technical articles on submarinesincluding two published in SEA TECH magazine: “TheEfficacy of Submarine Warfare,” and “USS VIRGINIA(SSN 774)?A New Steel-Shark at Sea.”Course Outline1.
