The Wave Resistance of an Air-Cushion Vehicle in Accelerated Motion

Abstract: This report is concerned with the theoretical wave resistance of an air-cushion vehicle (ACV) traveling over water of uniform finite or infinite depth, in steady or unsteady motion Referring first to steady motion, it is shown that the unrealistic oscillations in the wave resistance curve at low Froude numbers found by previous workers can be eliminated by using a smoothed out pressure distribution rather than one with sharp edges studied exclusively in the past.The main result of unsteady motion calculations … Show more

“…For a zero fotation parameter (e = 0), the wave-resistance curve calculated by formulas (2.7) and (2.8) agrees with tile results of [6], which are plotted as diagrams, for all the depth, elongation, and acceleration parameters, which were considered in [6], namely, for 3` = 0.25 and ? = oc and co = 2; k~ = 0.05 and k~ = 0.1, and the stationary motion.…”

“…If a rectangular or elliptic, in plan, system of constant pressures q(x, y) -= qo -const is taken as a system of moving pressures q(x, y), the theoretically obtained curve of wave resistance [1,2,5,6] has an infinite number of vibrations in the region of small velocities. This result is not supported by experimental data.…”

“…This formula and computations from it agree with Newman and Poole [9] and Doctors and Sharma [3]. More generally 2κbC D can be identified with the series on the right of (7) providing the pressures p j have been normalised by dividing by their mean p 0 , which we assume to be the case.…”
