Abstract:It is necessary to investigate the dynamic performance during autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) underwater docking to aid in control and to enhance docking safety. Therefore, in this study, the docking hydrodynamic characteristics (including the docking system’s streamline, velocity vector, and surface pressure during the overall docking process) of the AUV with conical hood dock are determined by using the dynamic grid technology, and the water drag force situations of the AUV docking with conical hood dock… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
