| Summary: | Unmanned Underwater vehicles (UUV), which are sometimes known as underwater drones, are vehicles, which are capable of operating underwater without a human occupant. It can either be controlled by a remote or operate independently without direct human input. It is often used for dangerous operations or for performing tasks at a depth unsafe for humans. However UUV experience problems with its maneuverability because it lacks the direct human input. This project aims to find the preferred method of maneuver by finding which method garners the largest yaw, lateral force and drag acting on it. |
