Development and testing of the propulsion system of MARTA AUV Allotta, B. Constanzi, R. Gelli, J. Paolucci, L. Pugi, L. Ridolfi, A. Àrees temàtiques de la UPC::Matemàtiques i estadística::Anàlisi numèrica::Mètodes en elements finits Finite element method Marine engineering Propulsion Systems, Autonomous Underwater Vehicles, Marine Robotics, Marine Propulsion This work deals with the design of the propulsion system of a modular AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle). The authors describe the design methodologies and the testing devices used for the fast prototyping of MARTA (MARine Tool for Archaeology) AUV actuation system, including drivers, motors and propellers. In particular, the authors introduce the design criteria followed for the preliminary testing activities and the methodologies adopted for fast testing and prototyping of the proposed solutions. This is a quite important topic considering the high customization and the reliability required by this kind of applications. 2015 Conference report Open Access CIMNE
