  1. 1. Simulations of a self-stabilizing fully submerged hydrofoil

    University essay from KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

    Author : Henry Jacobson; [2023]
    Keywords : Hydrofoil; Self-Stabilizing; Lifting Line Theory; Fluid Mechanics; Numerical Methods; Backward Differentiation Formula; Fully Submerged Hydrofoil; Bärplan; bärplansbåt; självstabiliserande; lyftande linjeteori; strömningsme- kanik; numeriska metoder; Backward Differentiation Formula; fullt nedsänkt bärplan;

    Abstract : Two models of a self-stabilizing hydrofoil system is developed where the effects from the struts and hydrofoil give torques for angular rotations. Lifting line theory for the hydrofoil which can twist is used. Nonlinear versions of the models are also developed and compared to find that the linear models use valid approximations. READ MORE

  3. 2. Interior Design Of Hydro-Foiling Boat

    University essay from Jönköping University/JTH, Industridesign

    Author : Anton Nilsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Boat; Interior Design; Design; Hydro-Foil; Industrial Design;

    Abstract : Boats have a rich history, evolving in shape and purpose. From ancient logboats to modern superyachts, their design depends on their intended use. Among personal watercraft, such as yachts and motorboats, there are various types like fishing boats and day cruisers. Runabout boats are popular today for leisure. READ MORE

  4. 3. Function analysis and design of a hydrofoiling search and rescue vessel from a user perspective

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Petter Elnerud; Elias Esseen; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This report covers a function analysis and concept design of a hydrofoil electric search and rescue vessel. It was done in conjunction with the SSRS, Swedish Sea Rescue Society (Sjöräddningssällskapet), as a master thesis at the Royal Institute of Technology. READ MORE

  5. 4. Prototype of a Range Prediction Interface for an Electric Rescue Boat

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Oskar Pålhagen; Erik Halme; [2023]
    Keywords : Electric rescue boat; Battery GUI; Range prediction; Prototyping; Elektrisk räddningsbåt; Batteri GUI; Avståndsestimering; Prototypframställning;

    Abstract : Global warming and its effects on the environment call for electrification of the transportation sector. In this effort, the boating industry has not been a pioneer, while being responsible for almost 3 percent of global anthropogenic carbon emissions. READ MORE

  6. 5. CFD Optimization of Hydrofoiling Concept for A New Era of Sea Transports

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Anlun Li; [2022]
    Keywords : Optimization; Hydrofoil; FoilCart; Transportation; CFD; Optimering; Hydrofoil; FoilCart; Transport; CFD;

    Abstract : The aim of this master thesis is to develop and optimize the main wing of a T-shaped hydrofoil for a small passenger vessel called FoilCart. The project is in collaboration with KTH Maritime Robotic Lab. The existing prototype of the hydrofoil is built by a company called ZPARQ\cite{Zparq}, but the efficiency of the main wing is not optimized. READ MORE
