Influence of the camber trailing-edge wings on the motion performance of underwater gliders

Wings are the main source of lift for Underwater Gliders (UGs) and play a decisive role in their motion performance. The wings of UGs are generally rectangular and symmetrical airfoils. In this study, a mini-UG with flexible camber trailing-edge wings was proposed and developed to investigate the in...
