ReportDOI
Flight Software Development for the Liberdade Flying Wing Glider
Peter Brodsky,James C. Luby +1 more
TL;DR: This report covers work carried out under both the above ONR grant and a previous grant (N00014-05-1-0209) logically connected to the same program concerned development of a computer control system for a very large underwater glider.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development, optimization, and evaluation of a hybrid passive buoyancy compensation system for underwater gliders
TL;DR: In this paper, a hybrid passive buoyancy compensation system (HPBCS) was proposed to compensate for the buoyancy variation in an underwater glider, integrating three standalone buoyancy compensators, namely, spring accumulator, inflatable accumulator and silicon oil bladder.

Fundamentals of Aerodynamics
TL;DR: In this article, Navier-Stokes et al. discuss the fundamental principles of Inviscid, Incompressible Flow over airfoils and their application in nonlinear Supersonic Flow.
Book
Aircraft Design: A Conceptual Approach
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an overview of the design process of an aircraft from a conceptual sketch, including sizing from a Conceptual Sketch and initial sizing of the aircraft.
Journal ArticleDOI
SLOCUM: an underwater glider propelled by environmental energy
TL;DR: SLOCUM as discussed by the authors is a small gliding AUV of 40 000-km operational range which harvests its propulsive energy from the heat flow between the vehicle engine and the thermal gradient of the temperate and tropical ocean.

Aircraft performance and design
TL;DR: A short history of the evolution of the airplane and its performance can be found in this article, where the authors discuss the evolution and performance of the aircraft and its history. But, their main focus is on the development of a Propeller-Driven Airplane.
