Increase in Stability of an X-Configured AUV through Hydrodynamic Design Iterations with the Definition of a New Stability Index to Include Effect of Gravity

Increase in Stability of an X-Configured AUV through Hydrodynamic Design Iterations with the Definition of a New Stability Index to Include Effect of Gravity

A study about the effect of different configurations of stationary and movable appendages on the dynamic stability of an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) is presented. A new stability index that can be used to assess dynamic stability in the vertical plane is derived. It improves upon the vertica...
