High-Speed Ship Maneuverability

Journal of Ship Research, 2016
In this paper, the effects of changes in hull attitude and the presence of stern append- ages such as rudders, shaft brackets, bossing, and propeller shafts on the maneuver- ability of a high-speed ship are investigated. The study is conducted for a ship operating within a Froude number range of 0.6–1.0.

Maneuverability—General Issues

IEEE Journal of Oceanic Engineering, 2004
Maneuvers may be defined as a series of changes in direction and position for a specified purpose (as in changing course, switching tracks, or docking). Although the definition excludes hovering, this is considered to be a maneuver by biologists. Maneuvers are typically complex, combining more than one translational and rotational component.

Maneuverability

1942
NOTE: Text or symbols not renderable in plain ASCII are indicated by [...]. Abstract is included in .pdf document. A method has been developed which makes possible the determination of the time to make a horizontal turn of any number of degrees, and also the control deflections necessary to make the turn.

A novel maneuverable propeller for improving maneuverability and propulsive performance of underwater vehicles

Applied Ocean Research, 2019
Abstract The existing propulsor that can perform both propulsion and maneuvering along axis of rotation is propeller/rotor for a helicopter. Helicopter propellers when maneuvering increase or decrease their blades’ pitch cyclically to create imbalanced thrust and hence maneuvering force/torque.

Maneuverability in Dynamic Vertical Climbing

2018 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS), 2018
In this paper, we examine the reduced order pendular dynamic climbing model with the addition of attachment windows based on prescribed body roll. With this model and on the new dynamic climbing platform, TAILS, we demonstrate dynamic downward climbing as well as identify distinct dynamic gaits within downward climbing.
