Abstract

The underwater glider is a new type of autonomous underwater vehicle driven by buoyancy. The glider hydrofoil is the key driving element of the glider, it works under complex alternative load and determines the safety of navigation of the underwater glider. This paper takes the hydrofoil as the research object, a finite element model of hydrofoil has been established and the dynamic load of hydrofoil has been calculated. Finite element model analysis was conducted to the glider hydrofoil in free and restrained states, and the preceding few orders natural frequency of the glider hydrofoil and the corresponding vibration model and the vibration amplitude in the conditions were conducted respectively. The dangerous area of the glider hydrofoil was found out, which could provide data for optimal dynamic design and dynamic modification of hydrofoil.
