Taking the underwater cylindrical shell without internal fluid for example, the natural frequency and vibration response of the shell are calculated with the numerical method. The analytical results of the model are also presented to illustrate the accuracy of the numerical method. Then by changing the depth of the internal fluid, the effects of internal fluid on the vibration characteristics of the underwater shells are analyzed. And the effects of the direction and location of the applied loads on the sound radiation as well as the forced vibration are discussed. The results show that the internal liquid has influences on the vibration characteristics and the sound radiation of the system, which leads to complicated mode shapes for the partial interaction between the internal liquid with the shell. When the depth of the internal liquid increases, the natural frequency of the coupled structure decreases, and the vibration mode becomes irregular. For the forced vibration, the response is maximum when radial excitation is applied at a location where the shell isn’t coupled to the internal fluid. The peak of the curve shifts to the lower frequency as the depth of the internal liquid increases.","PeriodicalId":299885,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 8th International Conference on Underwater System Technology: Theory and Applications (USYS)","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115259535","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, an investigation on external mechanism of cargo ship under collision scenariothrough model testing methods are conducted in towing tank. The effects of striking velocity and striking angle on the structural damage, energy dissipation and collisionforce are analyzed. In addition, explicit LS-DYNA finite element solver is also employed to simulate the collision scenario, and corresponding comparisons are made. It is shown that the colliding force will decrease with the striking angle decreasing, while the colliding force and indentation depth both increase with the striking velocity increasing. The experimental data can provide support for carrying out the simulation of the ship collision in accuracy and reliability.","PeriodicalId":299885,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 8th International Conference on Underwater System Technology: Theory and Applications (USYS)","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114264697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Establishing illumination intensity attenuation model based on light source carried by robot, we combine the absorption and scattering attenuation factors of the underwater medium with the turbidity of the water to obtain the defuzzified image. This method not only takes into account various complex attenuation media underwater, but also considers the changes in water quality in dynamic scenes. The proposed algorithm can be more adaptive to the motion of underwater robots. It can be seen from the comparative test analysis that the approach has strong robustness in a certain turbidity range.","PeriodicalId":299885,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 8th International Conference on Underwater System Technology: Theory and Applications (USYS)","volume":"3 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116824772","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The target moves with a time-varying and unknown velocity, and only the relative range and angle is available. A yaw rate control law is proposed at first, where an extended state observer is designed to identify relative dynamics. Next, using the torque and position date from the follower, a fuzzy system is utilized based on prediction errors to estimate the dynamics caused by parametric uncertainty, unmodeled hydrodynamics and external disturbances. Finally, using the reconstructed unknown dynamics, a predictor-based bounded kinetic control law is proposed. Though Lyapunov theory, the target enclosing system is analyzed, and the result of input-to-state stability is proved. Simulation study for two vehicles shows the effectiveness of this target enclosing controller.","PeriodicalId":299885,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 8th International Conference on Underwater System Technology: Theory and Applications (USYS)","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121734527","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hybrid mesh is adopted during computation, because it can avoid mesh distortion caused by dynamic mesh and improve computation efficiency. The results show that resistance of multi-legs accounts for a large component of total resistance. The trends of vertical force and pitching moment of C-SVs are related to multi-legged positions and gestures.

The MATLAB software is applied to model the above motion and the characteristics for a single slap in the water layer are analyzed, as well as several slaps in the cavitation. The duration time of single slap increases as the projectile speed decrease into a certain range and this may lead to collapse of the supercavitation and instability of the projectile moving forward. It turns out that the number of the tail slap and the reflection angle increase with the increasing of the projectile angular speed. What’s more, the differences between parameters of different slap points become smaller as the tail slap goes on under supercavitation condition.","PeriodicalId":299885,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 8th International Conference on Underwater System Technology: Theory and Applications (USYS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115950198","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
