Virtual Planar Motion Mechanism Testing of 8:1 Spheroids
… damping coefficients used in the equations of motion of a vehicle by attempting to decouple the forces on a body due to velocity and acceleration as a result of creating "hydrodynamically pure" velocities and accelerations. This makes it possible to use quasi-steady state models with terms …

Maneuvering of slender X-fin AUVs with hydrodynamic derivatives informed through CFD
… These captive maneuvers are refereed to as planar motion mechanisms (PMM), and when simulated through CFD are refereed to as virtual planar motion mechanisms (VPMM). The results from VPMM are used to determine the hydrodynamic derivatives that inform the LPM. There was some inconsistency in …

Hydrodynamic added mass determination and attitude estimation of the Seahog - a remotely-operated underwater vehicle
… When a vehicle is undergoing an unsteady motion underwater, extra resistance is experienced by the vehicle. This resistance differs to the drag forces as it is independent of the vehicle’s relative velocity. This resistive force is known as the added mass. Added mass covers both the …
