Abstract:<p>This paper presents the design and
testing process of the hull of a deep small autonomous underwater vehicle, rated
at 2000m depth. Starting from setting the geometrical constraints for the
design to mass production. None of the previous literature, to the authors’
knowledge has presented similar work. Carbon Fiber Reinforced Epoxy material was
chosen given their high strength to weight ratio and similarity of its
compressibility to sea water. Material characterization was performed to obtain
the mate… Show more
