Manoeuvring and Motion Control of a Hydrofoil
Computer-aided design techniques are described and demonstrated in studies associated with the regulation of pitch, roll, heave and yaw of a 31 m surface piercing hydrofoil. The procedures outlined are effected by way of a comprehensive suite of software for control system data processing which is employed in the transformation of the basic model into ...

Study on Noise Attenuation Characteristics of Hydrofoil with Specific Cavitation Number
In this study, the modified Sauer cavitation model and Kirchhoff-Ffowcs Williams and Hawkings (K-FWH) acoustic model were adopted to numerically simulate the unsteady cavitation flow field and the noise of a three-dimensional NACA66 hydrofoil at a ...

Fluid Structure Interaction of Hydrofoils [PDF]
Hydrofoils are used in the marine industry to produce enough lift to raise the boat and crew out of the water, therefore reducing resistance on the hull and enabling increased speeds. The interaction between the hydrofoil and water puts severe stress and strain on the hydrofoil.
