The analysis of hydrodynamic forces and shape of towrope for an underwater vehicle
Abstract
The paper presents a method of calculating forces in an underwater vehicle towrope as well as its shape under the influence of hydrodynamic forces induced by water flowing round the towrope and vehicle. The rope hydrodynamic loads are calculated from the Morison’s equation and the vehicle forces and moments by means of coefficients. An example of calculations for a vehicle has been performed in the Matlab system for one towing speed.
