The use of computational fluid dynamics to assess the hull resistance of concept autonomous underwater vehicles [PDF]
Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV’s) provide an important tool for collecting detailed scientific information from the oceans depths. The hull resistance of an AUV is an important factor in determining the powering requirements and range of the vehicle.

A theoretical approach to facilitating transition phase motion in a positively buoyant autonomous underwater vehicle [PDF]
Positively buoyant autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) operate at survey speeds with a pitch angle that ismaintained through application of the control surfaces, sufficient to generate hydrodynamic forces to counteract theexcess buoyancy. To facilitate

The effect of swimsuit resistance on freestyle swimming race time. [PDF]
It is known that swimming equipment (suit, cap and goggles) can affect the total resistance of a swimmer, and therefore impact the resulting swimming speed and race time.
