The Instrumentation and Sea Trials of a Hydrofield 20 Target Boat Hull.

Abstract

At the requests of the Directorate of Naval Ship Design, Aeronautical Resarch Laboratories (ARL) instrumented a six metre fibre glass target boat and recorded the output signals from pressure transducers, strain gauges and accelerometers during both calm water and rough water trials. This report details the instrumentation fitted to the hull, the problems encountered during the trials and the results from the tests. (Author)
