Modeling of Combined Phenomena Affecting an AUV Stealth Vehicle
Journal Title: TransNav, the International Journal on Marine Navigation and Safety of Sea Transportation - Year 2016, Vol 10, Issue 4
Abstract
In the paper some results of research connected with modeling the basic stealth characteristics of an AUV vehicle are presented. First of all a general approach to design of the stealth AUV autonomous underwater vehicles under consideration is introduced. Then the AUV stealth vehicle concept is briefly described. Next a method of modeling of the stealth characteristics is briefly described. As an example of the stealth characteristics investigations some results of modeling the boundary layer and wake are presented. Some remarks regarding the behavior of the AUV stealth vehicle in the submerged conditions are given. The final conclusions are presented.

Arctic Shipping and Risks: Emergency Categories and Response Capacities
The sea ice in the Arctic has shrunk significantly in the last decades. The transport pattern has as a result partly changed with more traffic in remote areas. This change may influence on the risk pattern. The critical...
A Study on Basic VTS Guideline based on Ship’s Operator’s Consciousness
VTS controls vessels using VHF for 24 hours a day. Therefore, from the analysis of VHF communication, we can understand the current status of marine traffic and VTS’s control pattern in VTS area. This study objective is...
Distributed Situation Awareness in pilotage operations: Implications and Challenges
Pilotage is considered as the most critical leg of navigation and a complex operation in maritime domain. In this paper, we argue that Distributed Situation Awareness (DSA) is an important construct in pilotage as the in...
