Abstract

Naval Engineers JournalVolume 79, Issue 5 p. 779-783 WHY WATERJETS? DAVID J. BERG, DAVID J. BERG David Berg, a native of Michigan, received his Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Michigan Technological University in 1951, after which he began his career with the Bureau of Ships in the Machinery Design Branch on noise, shock, and vibration problems. He was project engineer for the axial flow pumpjet development on USS Witek (DD848) and USS Glover (AGDE1), and received his Master of Engineering Degree in Naval Architecture in 1964 from the University of California, Berkeley. Mr. Berg is currently acting head of the Ship Performance and Trials Section of the Propulsion Systems Analysis Branch in the Naval Ship Engineering Center. He received the Meritorious Civilian Service Award in 1962 for contributions to the design of the USS Thresher (SSN593) and was awarded the Superior Performance Award for Outstanding Performance in 1966.Search for more papers by this authorWALTER S.
