本文评估了配备软体变形机翼的无人潜水器（UUV）相较于传统刚性机翼的水动力效率。与刚性机翼不同，可变形机翼可按需改变其水动力特性。效率提升能延长UUV续航范围，甚至影响任务可行性。研究通过结构分析与计算流体动力学（CFD）仿真，对比了软体变形机翼及集成该机翼的UUV。结果表明，采用软体机翼的UUV相比传统刚性机翼方案整体效率提升9.75%。这些发现证实了软体机器人技术在提升水下运载器性能方面的潜力，尤其适用于无需感知压力变化的作业场景。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
This work assesses the hydrodynamic efficiency of Underwater Unmanned Vehicles (UUVs) equipped with soft morphing wings compared to conventional rigid wings. Unlike rigid wings, deformable counterparts can alter their aerodynamic properties on demand. Improvements in hydrodynamic efficiency extend a UUV's operational range and may determine mission feasibility. Structural and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations were conducted for both a soft morphing wing and a UUV incorporating it. The results show that a UUV employing soft wings achieves 9.75 percent higher overall efficiency than an equivalent vehicle with traditional rigid wings. These findings confirm the potential of soft robotics to enhance underwater vehicle performance, particularly in applications requiring pressure-agnostic operation.
