Results show that torque caused by the acceleration term is much bigger than the other two terms.This approach leads to efficient algorithms since the constraint forces and moments of the robot system have been eliminated from the equations of motion and there is no differential equation for the whole procedure when the principle of virtual work is applied to solving the inverse dynamical problem.展开更多

The total resistances for different Froude numbers are considered experimentally. The towing tank is equipped with a trolley that can operate in through 0.05-6 m/s speed with ±0.02 m/s accuracy. Furthermore, the study is done on hydrodynamic coefficients i.e. total, residual and friction resistance coefficients, and the results are compared. Finally, the study on flow of wave fields around bows is done and wave filed around two bows are compared. The Froude number interval is between 0.099 and 0.349. Blockage fraction for the model is fixed to 0.005 3. The results showed that the residual resistance of the standard bow in 0.19 to 0.3 Froude number is more than the tango bow in surface motion which causes more total resistance for the submarine. Finally, details of wave generated by the bow are depicted and the effects of flow pattern on resistance drag are discussed.展开更多

Toruk is an experimental test bench to study center of gravity steering, effect of the location of the center of gravity, controller design and implementation, etc. Physical components are also briefly discussed in this paper. Attitude dynamics of the system is inherently unstable. It is stabilized by a regulator. In addition, an observer is designed and utilized to estimate the unmeasured states. Thrust force generated by the propulsion unit is estimated by using the identified mathematical model of the unit. An experimental setup is employed to identify the mathematical model that expresses the relation between the applied input voltage to the propulsion unit and thrust produced by the propeller. Mathematical model for the attitude dynamics of Toruk is built. Then controllability and observability analysis are carried out for the system. Dynamic compensator composed of a state observer and a regulator, is designed on the mathematical model. Physical implementation on the system will be performed.展开更多
