Abstract

The outline character and internal structure overall arrangement and controlling circuit design of an underwater glider(UG) model is described. The driving mechanism and motion realization of underwater gliders model is analyzed. The model can glide in the longitudinal and lateral direction, and the hydrodynamic of the UG model with various attack angles are predicted by numerical calculation.
