Optimal design of hydraulic support landing platform for a four-rotor dish-shaped UUV using particle swarm optimization

Four-rotor dish-shaped unmanned underwater vehicles (FRDS UUVs) are new type underwater vehicles. The main goal of this paper is to develop a quick method to optimize the design of hydraulic support landing platform for the new UUV. In this paper, the geometry configuration and instability type of t...
