Compilation of Motion Data Obtained on VOYAGEUR ACV during OSDOC II Exercise in October 1972.

Abstract

This report presents a compilation of full scale data obtained on the VOYAGEUR Prototype S/N 001 Air Cushion Vehicle, ACV, during its participation in U.S. Army Exercise OSDOC II at Fort Story, Virginia in October 1972. Data was obtained during: (1) high speed, fixed condition runs, (2) mooring operations with the container ship 'WARRIOR' and an LST, and (3) surf crossings. The motions of the VOYAGEUR ACV were measured in various sea states in the range of a high State 1 Sea to a low State 3 Sea. The conclusions made in this report are limited to the factors that affected the quality of the data during acquisition and/or processing. (Author)
