Abstract

The paper firstly calculates the optimal location of external torpedoes. And then the dynamics model of the UUV hanging torpedoes externally is established. Also, the force and moment the torpedoes exerted on the unmanned underwater vehicle are analyzed. Based on the model, the corresponding maneuverability simulation program is derived using SIMULINK. The results show the variation of the maneuverability after the UUV hanging torpedoes. The simulation also shows that the model is appropriate and the program has strong simulation functions.
