  • Abstract
    A proposal for a buoy station for AUV refuel is described and depicted. An algorithm to calculate the forces on, and displacements of the buoy is selected. The buoy is to be funded and manufactured before September 2010, when it is to see service in the Azores as part of FREEsubNET week, a public outreach activity of EC contract number MCRTN-036186. The design calls for a low-maintenance permanent installation. The buoy is to be accessible to the public for research purposes upon prior written permission.
