Hydrodynamic Studies for Submersible Amphibious Combat Vehicles
Abstract
Hydrodynamic Studies for Submersible Amphibious Combat VehiclesAbstractThis project aims at 1) Study geometries and technologies" (shape modifications, detachableappendages, etc.) to reduce resistance of manned or unmanned Submersible Amphibious CombatVehicle""s (SACVs) when operating beneath the free surface, 2) Determine the effects of SACVsize, speed and operational depth on resistance"" and required thrust, 3) Study the wave-makingcharacteristics and eddy generation of the vehicle operating under different conditio""ns analyzedin (2) and 4) Evaluate hydrodynamic loads, stability and control when operating in a seaway withwaves. Studies will be"" performed using a variety of tools, including the computational navalhydrodyn
