Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Hull Geometry Optimization Using a Multi-objective Algorithm Approach
Abstarct In this paper, a new approach to optimize an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) hull geometry is presented. Using this methode, the nose and tail of an underwater vehicle are designed, such that their length constraints due to the arrangement of different components in the AUV body are properly addressed. In the current study, an optimal design for the body profile of a torpedo-shaped...
متن کاملInvestigation on Nose and Tail Shape Effects on Hydrodynamic Parameters in Autonomous Underwater Vehicles
Development of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) which meets the design constraints and provides the best hydrodynamic performance is really an important challenge in the field of hydrodynamics. In this paper a new profile is used for designing the hull of AUVs. The nose and tail profiles of an AUV using presented profile is designed such that it can properly consider the length constraints...
متن کاملNavigating Autonomous Underwater Vehicles
Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are powerful tools for exploring, investigating and managing our ocean resources. As the capabilities of these platforms continue to expand and they continue to mature as operational assets, navigation remains a fundamental technological component. This chapter presents a road map for the vehicle designer to aid in integrating the latest navigation methods ...
متن کاملAutonomous Underwater Vehicles
Navigation is one of the most critical factors in determining the operational suitability of any unmanned vehicle for its designated environment. In fully autonomous vehicles, due to the lack of a human operator to perform the navigation task, there is a fundamental requirement to incorporate estimation techniques that can provide the desired information necessary for navigation. Such informati...
متن کاملDesigning Practical Motions for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles: A Ship Hull Survey Mission
The primary focus of this paper is to provide a solution to the practical motion planning problem of a ship hull survey to be performed by an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV). In particular, we examine the bulbous bow portion of the hull and present a reasonable survey strategy. Unique to this applied study, is the approach to the problem via differential geometric techniques. The motion pla...
