- Abstract
ABSTRACTThis paper conveys some of the results of a research project involving the design and tests of biomimetic underwater vehicle which is intended for implementation of intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance tasks. The research presented in this paper is based on the theoretical and practical study. All major subsystems of the robot are specified and briefly described. The mechanical design is based on modular structure. Two types of modules, dry and wet, are specified. The major parts of the tail module were checked with the use of the finite element method. Moreover, hardware and software parts of robot's control subsystem and Simulink model of static depth regulator are briefly presented. The final part presents main parameters and basic functionality of the built biomimetic underwater vehicle.
