Motion Pattern Optimization and Energy Analysis for Underwater Glider Based on the Multi-Objective Artificial Bee Colony Method

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
Underwater gliders are prevailing in oceanic observation nowadays for their flexible deployment and low cost. However, the limited onboard energy constrains their application, hence the motion pattern optimization and energy analysis are the key to ...

Effects of Connection Type between Surface Vessel and Submersible Propeller on Motion Performance of Wave Glider

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2018
Wave Glider is an autonomous surface vehicle that directly uses wave energy to generate forward power and has been widely used in marine survey and observation. Wave Glider is composed of surface vessel, submersible propeller and the connection structure

Genetic evidence supports three previously described species of greater glider, Petauroides volans, P. minor, and P. armillatus

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
The identification and classification of species are essential for effective conservation management. This year, Australia experienced a bushfire season of unprecedented severity, resulting in widespread habitat loss and mortality. As a result, there has

Numerical Study of the Effect of Wing Position on the Dynamic Motion Characteristics of an Underwater Glider

open access: yesPolish Maritime Research, 2021
Underwater gliders are winged, autonomous underwater vehicles that are broadly applied in physical and biological oceanography. The position of the wing has an important effect on the movement performance of the underwater glider.

Shape Optimization of Blended-Wing-Body Underwater Gliders Based on Free-Form Deformation

open access: yesXibei Gongye Daxue Xuebao, 2020
Currently developed underwater gliders can be roughly divided into the two types:traditional configuration and unconventional configuration. As a type of underwater gliders with unconventional configuration, a blended-wing-body (BWB) underwater glider ...

Parametric geometric model and shape optimization of an underwater glider with blended-wing-body

open access: yesInternational Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2015
Underwater glider, as a new kind of autonomous underwater vehicles, has many merits such as long-range, extended-duration and low costs. The shape of underwater glider is an important factor in determining the hydrodynamic efficiency.
