    Estimation of optimum engine power of fishing craft with reference to length
    (Society of Fisheries Technologists (India), 2014) Baiju, M.V.; Boopendranath, M.R.
    Marine fish production in India has increased from 0.5 million t in 1950 to 3.07 million t in 2010 (CMFRI, 2011). Development of industrial fisheries sector was characterized by the mechanisation of propulsion, gear and catch handling along with introduction of synthetic gear materials; developments in acoustic fish detection and satellite based remote sensing techniques; and advances in electronic navigation and position fixing equipment.

    Fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) sheathed canoes for north east hill regions
    (2013) Baiju, M.V.; Leela Edwin; Pravin, P.; Meenakumari, B.; Baiju, M.
    A detailed survey of the fishing crafts in the North Eastern Hill Regions was carried out during 2005-06. All the fishing crafts in the region were being constructed in a traditional way by using different species of timber. Few popular designs were selected for construction of fishing craft using low cost less durable timber species and these were provided with Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) sheathing for increasing their durability. Periodic physical inspection of the FRP sheathed wooden fishing craft was carried out for a period of one year and it was observed that the FRP sheathed wooden canoes were in good condition after one year and do not require any maintenance as in the case of the traditional wooden fishing craft.

    Net drag estimate of 18.0 m pelagic trawl calculated twine area in comparison to projected monotype values by model studies
    (Society of Fisheries Technologis(India), 2006) Vijayan, V.; Baiju, M.V.
    Designing a trawl gear can effectively be accomplished by matching its size to the available horsepower. A simple method of trawl gear estimation at the design stage, utilizing the information available from a net drawing, will immensely ease the designing process without having to wait for the experimental values of net drag. Drag estimation through calculated twine area is attempted with 18.0m semi pelagic trawl and is compared with the total drag of the projected prototype values by I/IS"1 model studies conducted at the ship model testing tank at IIT, Chennai. Method of calculation of twine area in m2 of the different webbings that go into the making of the gear is required to calculate the total twine resistance to enable to optimise the designed net and to optimally utilize the available horse power. Net drag estimation using calculated twine area and the total drag of the prototype arrived at by model studies are calculated and compared.
