Abstract

Air Cushion Vehicle (ACV) is a moving vehicle on airbags, which can travel on land and on water to transport people, goods and equipment. An important requirement for ACVs is to: increase reliability and longevity, reduce operating costs, stability and mobility. In this paper, a model for the dynamic behavior of air cushion vehicles segment skirt is presented. In this model, the compressible Bernoulli's equation, Newton's second law of motion are used to predict the dynamic behavior of the air cushion vehicles. Based on the developed model, the heave dynamics parameters of the air cushion vehicles “Hovertrek 6100L” are surveyed.
