Design and analysis of modular composites drybox hull of hybrid autonomous underwater vehicle

摘要

Present study consists the design method for modular composite hull of a hybrid autonomous underwater vehicle. Step by step method to design the modular composite drybox hull is described and discussed. FEA (Finite Element Analysis) for material strength analysis was used to design and estimate composition of each layer of composites structure. Overall proposed design method lead to the identification of the most efficient number of layers and acceptable safety factor for the composites drybox.
