Starting from a flat-folded state, the curved-crease origami hulls can be deployed to match traditional planing hull shapes like the VPS (deep-V, Planing hull with Straight face) and the GPPH (General Purpose Planing Hull). By extension of the ability to conform to a desired shape, we show that the curved-crease origami hulls can emulate desired hydrodynamic characteristics in still as well as wavy water conditions. Furthermore, we demonstrate the shape-morphing ability of curved-crease origami hulls, enabling them to switch between low and high deadrise configurations. This ability allows for on-demand tuning of the hull hydrodynamic performance. We present proof-of-concept origami hulls to demonstrate the practical feasibility of our method. Hulls fabricated using the curved-crease origami principles can adapt to different sea states, and their flat foldability and deployability facilitate easy transport and deployment for rapid response naval operations such as rescue missions and the launch of crewless aquatic vehicles.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54834,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluids and Structures","volume":"130 ","pages":"Article 104176"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142167549","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By using the Green function of an ice-covered channel, the velocity potential in the outer domain is established from the source distribution formula over an artificial vertical surface extended from the crack. The source distribution is expanded in both vertical and circumferential directions, which allows the velocity potential to be obtained in an explicit form with unknown coefficients.

An orthogonal inner product is used to impose continuity conditions on the artificial vertical surface and the edge conditions at the crack.

The pipe is arranged as a composite structure comprised of alternate materials along the axial direction, and a constant fluid flows inside the pipe. Based on the Rayleigh beam theory, a set of 3D doubly-gyroscopic equations governing in-plane, out-of-plane flexural and axial motions of the pipe is established, which accounts for rotation gyroscopic force and fluid gyroscopic force. The spectral element technology is applied in such multi-dimensional system for solution. Following a validation by the finite element (FE) simulation, the band structure, frequency response function (FRF) and elastic wave shapes are presented to elucidate the 3D bandgap (BG) mechanism of the rotating PC pipe.

The aerodynamic performance of the tandem system results from a combination of unsteady aerodynamics mechanisms, fluid–structure resonance, vortex–wing interactions (denoted wake capture in this study) and aerodynamic tailoring.

The timing between the effective angle of attack and the pitching motion of the hindwing controls the generation of thrust (or drag) of each spanwise section of the hindwing (i.e., aerodynamic tayloring). A proof of concept study on the aerodynamic performance of systems made of wings with different flexibility suggests that they could outperform tandem systems with equally flexible wings.
