Abstract:The compact design of the UTAR-AA V is an attractive solution to the problem of big size amphibious vehicle available in the market. Most amphibious vehicles aim to navigate in a wide and open area. This paper sets out the design considerations for the development of the compact UTAR-AA V. The body and buoyancy design is made compact to pass through narrow and confined area. Differential drive made zero turning radius possible; this will allow the UTAR-AA V to turn in tunnel, in between tree trunk, and rocks. … Show more
