With the implementation of an energy efficiency design index, energy-saving devices (ESDs)
have received increasing research interest. In this study, experimental and numerical …

The new generation of wireless networks is strengthening ocean development capabilities.
The deep-sea detection ability of the offshore platform is being improved by Ocean Internet …

A numerical analysis was conducted on the hydrodynamic characteristics of a deep-sea
mining vehicle. The simulations employed the Reynolds Stress Model (RSM) to focus on the …

To achieve hydrodynamic design excellence in Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs)
largely depends on the accurate prediction of lift and drag forces. The study presents …

In this article, we present a novel separate strategy to control the pitch attitude and the
gliding direction for a biomimetic gliding robotic fish by the coordination of the external and …

The hydrodynamic performance and lift-drag ratio of the underwater glider affected the state
of its own operation. Therefore, a three-dimensional physical model and a mathematical …

Underwater robots play a significant role in ocean exploration. This book provides full
coverage of the theoretical and practical aspects of bionic gliding underwater robots …

This paper revisits Stommel's vision for a global glider network and the Argo design
specification. A concept of floats with wings, so-called slow underwater gliders, is explored …

Increasing demand for versatile and long-endurance autonomous underwater vehicles puts
significant design pressure on all aspects of AUV design and operation, including that of the …

Two models of underwater gliders were tested in a wind tunnel: one corresponding to a
legacy shape commonly used in contemporary vehicles and the other a scaled down …
