Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) Propulsion System Analysis and Optimization

One of the largest design considerations for autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVâ s) that have specific mission scenarios is the propulsive efficiency. The propulsive efficiency affects the amount of power storage required to achieve a specific mission. As the efficiency increases the volume of ene...
