ABSTRACT
This paper treats the theoretical problem of an air-cushion vehicle
(ACV) travelling over water of uniform ±inite or infinite depth, with an arbitrary motion. The ACV is modelled by a pressure distribution applied to the free surface of an inviscid. incompressible fluid and the boundary conditions on the free surface are linearized.
Numerical results are presented firstly for accelerated motion from
rest. In deep water, the hump condition is delayed to a higher Froude
number, while in finite depth, the hump resistance is appreciably
reduced - even by moderate levels of acceleration.
The effect of tank walls on these results when carrying out mode].
tests is next examined. The side walls of the tank alter the resistance by less than one per cent in accelerated motion, if the tank width is greater than four times the model beam.
Finally, calculations of the side force acting on a yawing ACV are
presented. For super-hump speeds, the side force is of the same order as the wave resistance and. favorably aids the turn. It is also shown that the steady-state forces are realized when the craft has travelled 'a distance of less than two vehicle lengths after a manoeuver.

Havelock
(1909, 1914
and1926)
was the first to study the theoretical problem of the wave resistance of a pressure distribution. His inter-est lay in a desire .to represent the disturbance from a ship. As a re-sult, the pressure distributions that he chose to analyze were very smooth and were not typical of the pressure underneath an air-cushion vehicle(A cv). However, later on, Havelock (1932) derived the genera). expression for a pressure distribution travelling at a constant speed of advance. In this paper, he also showed that, under the assumption of a sm dis-turbance, the action of the pressure was equivalent to a source distri-bution on the undisturbed free surface. The relation was:
- p ax
(i)
where and p are the source intensity and pressure at the same point,
c is the velocity in the x direction, p is the density of the fluid
g is the acceleration due to gravity.
Lu.nde (1951a) extended the theoretical treatment to include the case
of an arbitrary distribution moving over finite depth. Numerical cal-culations which are directly applicable to the ACV have been carried out
by other workers. For example, Newman and. Poole (1962) considered the two cases of a constant pressure acting over a rectangular area, and over an elliptical area. The most striking feature of their results is the
very strong interaction between the bow and stern wave systems. The
resistance curves displayed a series of humps and hollows - particularly
for the rectangular distribution (where the interaction would be greater).
A hump is produced when the bow and stern wave systems are in phase and
combine to give a trailing wave of a maximum height. A hollow occurs when the two wave systems are out of phase by half a wavelength so that
the combined amplitude is a minimum.
The interference effects are found to be stronger for large beam to
length ratios, as would be expected from this argument, since the wave
motion becomes more nearly two-dimensional. The humps are found to occur
at Froudé numbers given approximately by
F=l//(2n_1)7rfornl,2,3'
(2)and. the hollows occur approximately when
F = l/V for n = 1, 2., 3 (3)
In the limit of infinite beam (a two-dimensional pressure band), the
humps and hollows are given precisely by Eqs (2). and (3). This result
was found. by Lamb (1932).
In water of finite depth, the main, or "last", hump (n = 1) is shif-ted. to a lower Froudé number., and for sufficiently shalloW water,, occurs at a depth Froude number, Fd , equal to unity . (that is, at the depth critical speed). Similar calculations were given by Barratt
(1965).
Newman and Poole also considered the effect of a restricted waterway,
such as a canal. In such a case, the wave pattern is constituted from wavelets of discrete frequencies only, which can exist in the tank,
where-as in laterally unrestricted water a continuous distribution of frequencies
exists. As the speed is increased past the critical speed, the transverse wave, component can no longer occur, and as a result, there is a

uity in the wave resistance curve. This Sudden drop in resistance is given by
3W2 2pgBd2
where W
is the weight of the ACV, B is the width of the tank and d is the water depth.Havelock (1922) also presented some resti.lts for a very smooth pressure distribution moving over water of finite depth. These., too, showed the
shift of the main hump and the increase in its magnitude in shallower
water. Havelock's curves displayed only the main hump. The secondary (.n = 2) and other humps did not occur because of his choice of pressure distribution.
In recent years, a number of experiments have been carried out in
order. to check the above-mentioned theoretical results. These have been
performed in particular by Everest Cl966a, 1966b,
l966c
and 1967) andHogben (1966). The fundamental question pointed out in these papers is the resolution of the total drag on the ACV into its components. Apart
from the wave resistance, the forces acting on the craft are aerodynamic drag and wetting drag.
I these experiments, the total drag was usually measured with a
dynamometer. The aerodynamic drag was then estimated from the drag coefficient on the model, and the momentum drag was obtained from the
mass flow into the cushiOn. The agreement between theory and experiment
was found to he best at speeds greater than hump. At lover speeds,
nan-linear and viscous effects become important and there was a large scatter
To avoid the troublesome wetting drag, Everest (1966a) attempted to
eliminate it using a thin polythene sheet floating on the water surface. The resistance breakdown is further discussed by Hogben (1966). The
ex-periments only indicated the presence of the first two (n = 1, 2) and possibly three (n = 3) humps. Hogben
(.1965)
showed that this resultfitted in with the idea that the maximum ratio of wave height to length
is about one seventh; That is, wave breaking prevents the occurrence
of the additional humps.
Further experimental work by Everest, Willis and Hogben (1968 and
1969)
dealt with an ACV at an arbitrary angle of yaw. This problem was also studied numerically by Murthy (1970). In the experiments, the waveresistance was measured directly from a wave pattern survey, using the
transverse cut method. There was considerably less scatter in the data using this method, since the rather doubtful techniq.ue of estimating the wetting drag was eliminated. Indeed, the agreement was found to be
somewhat better, particularly for the lower of the two cushion pressures tested.
In an attempt to get better agreement with experiments at lower speeds, Doctors and Sharma
(.1970 and.1972)
used a pressure distribution whichessentially acted on a rectangulararea but had a controlled amount of smoothing - both in the longitudinal (x axis) and in the transverse
(y axis) direction. The distribution used was:
p(x,y) = p0 [tanh{a(x + a)} - tath{c(x -
a)}}
where p0 is the nominal, cushion pressure, and a and b are the
nom-inal half-length and half-beam respectively. The rate of pressure fall-of at the edges is determined by the parameters and . This
func-tion is shown in Fig.].. As a special case, ct ,
+
is equivalentto a uniform pressure acting on a rectangular area 2a2b.
In practice, of course., the pressure at the edge of an ACV does fall
off at a finite rate, corresponding approximately to a = a O. Nevertheless, it was found that only by selecting ca = a = 5 , could
the humps in the resistance curve above the third be essentially
elimin-ated. Thus clearly, viscosity and non-linearity are important at low
speeds. Some of these calculations arereviewed in thispaper.
Another problem of practical interest is the wave resistance during
accelerated motion, as one is frequently concerned with the ability of a
heavily-laden craft to overcome the hump resistance in order to reach the
cruising speed.
The problem of accelerated motion for a ship has been treated by
Sretensky (1939), Lunde (195lb, l953a and. 1953b) and Shebalov (1966.). Wehausen (l961) made numerics.], calculations for a particular motion of a
ship model starting from rest. His results consisted of asymptotic
expiessions valid for large values of the time after a steady speed was
obtained.
Djachenko (1966) derived an expression for the resistance of an
arbitrary pressure distribution moving with a general acceleration
pat-tern in deep water. He also presented some results for atwo-d.imensional
distribution.
Doctors and Sharma found that the main effect of accelerated motion
finite depth to reduce the magnitude of the hump quite significantly. These results are partially presented in this paper.
PRESENT WORX
The basic theory for the wave resistance of a time varying pressure
distribution will first be given. Then the results will be appl-ied to
the case of an ACV executing rectilinear motion in a horizontally
unrestricted region.
The work will then be extended to the case of an ACV moving along
the centerline of a rectangular channel. From theBe calculations it is
possible to determine the effect of the tank walls on the wave resistance.
Finally, the case of a yawing ACVwilJ. be examined. In particular,
the induced side force acting on the craft will be determined, so that
BASIC TIORY
PROBLEM STATEMENT
We represent the ACV by a pressure distribution p(x,y,t) acting on
the free surface, and travelling with the speed of the craft. Two right-handed coordinate systems (reference frames) will be used, and are shown
in Fig. 2. A third coordinate system that rotates with the craft during a yawing motion will be introduced later. The axis system jz is fixed in space, and the system xyz moves with the craft, z being vertically upwards while x and are in the direction of the rectilinear motion.
The relation between the coordinates is then given by

Eq. (21) is the potential for an arbitrary time-varying pressure

motion of an ACV is obtained. I-n the following sections, we shall
con-sider special motions of a pressure distribution which is non-time varying with respect to axes rigidly attached to the vehicle.
RECTILINEAR MOTION IN HORIZONTALLY UNRESTRICTED WATER
THE POTENTIAL
We now consider motion of a craft starting from rest at t = 0
The expression for the potential, Eq. (21), may be simplified by partial integration of the five-fold integral with respect to T

The pressure distribution, , as measureä. in the stationary reference
frame is a function of time. it is related to the pressure in the moving frame, p , by the following eq.uation:
p5(,y,t) = p(x,y)
= p( -.s(t),y) . (23)
THE WAVE RESISTANCE
The resistance of the pressure distribution is defined as the longi-tudinal component of the force acting on the free surface, and is there-fore given by

The second term in this expression contributes nothing to the integral providing the pressure drops to zero at = . The result for d) ,
Eq.. (22), is now used. If one expresses the pressure in terms of the
moving frame by Eq. (23), then the wave resistance becomes:

Eq. (25) is similar to that for a thin ship obtained by Lunde (1951b).
His formula included an additidnal integral which was simpiy proportional
to the instantaneous acceleration. This extra term is zero if the
sin-gularity distribution (Eq. (1)) lies on the free surface - as for a
pressure distribution.
The steady-state wave resistance can be derived from Eq. (25) by
allowing the velocity of the craft to be constant for a long time. If

CW Po
Fig.. 3a shows the wave resistance of a distribution with a beam to length ratio of 1/2. The variable used for the abscissa is A = i/2F2
This has the effect of expanding the horizontal scale at low Froude numbers.
Curve 1, with ca = a = , displays the unrealistic low-speed oscillations
which are characteristic of the sharp-edged distribution and were referred
to previously. It is seen, that with increasing degrees of smoothing (smaller values of a.a, and a), the low-speed humps and hollows may be
eliminated. The case with cw = a
= 5
results in only about three humps, more in keeping with experiments. Fig. 3b presents results forfinite depth water for three different distributions. The chief dif-ference now is that the main hump is shifted to the right and. occurs near the critical depth Froude number. It is seen that Curve 2 has smoothing
applied only at the bow and stern equivalent to a sidewall ACV. The
result is similar to the case for smoothing all around, showing that the
wave pattern is essentially produced by the fore and aft portions of the
cushion and not the sides. The resistance in the region of the main
hump is hardly affected by the smoothing.
The result of varying the depth of water is displayed in Fig. .
18
occurs in each case at a depth Froude number slightly less than unity. The location of the other humps is also affected, but to a lesser degree.
Beam to length ratio is varied in Fig.
5.
The general effect ofincreasing the beam is to increase the maxima and to decrease the minima
in the wave resistance curve. This is due to the transverse waves
assuming greater importance as the two-dimensional case is approached. A secondary effect is a shift in the locations of the oscillations to the right, so that in the limit of infinite beam, they occur at Froude
numbers given precisely by Eqs (2) and (3).
We now turn to the effect of constant levels of acceleration of the craft from rest. Fig. 6a applies to a smooth (aa
= 5)
two-dimensional pressure band moving over eep water. A general displacement
of the oscillations to higher Froud.e numbers occurs. This shift is greater for the higher acceleration. In addition, most of the low-speed
oscillatiOns apparent in steady-state motion do not occur in accelerated
motion. The resistance of a smooth band over finite depth water is shown in Fig. 6b. Here the reduction of the peaks is even more dramatic than in deep water. More striking, however, is that for this and for all
other two-dimensional cases studied, the wave resistance becomes negative beyond a certain velocity in finite depth. The resistance then asymp-totically approaches zero. (The ordinate in this figure is plotted on
an
arsinh scale.) The depth Froud.e number at which the negative peakresistance occurs in shallow water has been found to be
Fd = 1 + 2
hc/gd
(36)The resistance of an accelerating three-dimensional pressure dis-tribution is shown in Fig. Ta (deep water) and Fig. Tb (finite depth).
In deep water, the wave resistance shows similar, but less marked, effects due to acceleration as does the ôorresponding two-dimensional case (Fig. 6a). In finite depth, there is again a strong reduction in the main peak as well as an elimination of nearly a.0 the low-speed oscillations. However,
there is no region of negative wave resistance - thus indicating the

RECTILINEAR MOTION IN A TANK
TEE POTENTIAL
We now consider the problem of an ACV moving along the centerline
of a rectangular tank of length L and width B . The initial distance at t = 0 between the starting end of the tank and. the coordinate axes
xyz fixed to the model is taken as a . This problem is crucial to the
testing of models, as one. must know the effect of tank walls. For in-stance, during steady motion in an infinitely long tank, Newman and Poole
showed that the effect of tank width in the neighborhood of. unit depth Froude number to be importance (see Eq. (14)).
We utilize Eq. (22) for the potential in a horizontally unbounded
region, and satisfy. the additional condition of rio flux through the four
tank walls, by employing a system of image ACVs as shown in Fig.
8.
We consider first only the array of distributions on the tank centerline,and. later on apply the boundary condition on the tank sidewalls. The
potentials for the individual distributions, , are related to the
primary potential, , as follows:
(y,z,t) =
- nL,y,z,t) for n even, = + (n + l)L - 2a,y,z,t) for n odd,.We add to (-l) (i) to (-2) (2) to
,and soon.
This only alters the exponential factor in Eq.. (22), which now becomes: factor = 2 exp{i(v(- a - ') + u(y - y'))}cos{w(a + )} exp(2inwL)
The integral with respect to w of this factor in Eq. (22) can be
simplified using the Poisson summation formula to give

RESULTS
The wave resistance of a smoothed rectangular distribution moving
in a tank is shown in Fig.
9.
In deep water (Fig. 9a), it is seen thatthe effect of the walls is small for B/a = 2 . For B/a > 14 (tank
width greater than four times model width), the resistance coefficient
differs from the infinite width value by less than 0.0]. . It may be poin-ted out here that for the special case of B/a = 1 , that is, the tank width equal to the nominal beaiii of the model' the pressure carries approximately
7 of the weight of theACV beyond the tank walls However, it can be shown that this case is mathematically equivalent to a two-dimensional
2I
pressure band spanning the width of the channel.
In finite depth (Fig. 9b) the influence of the tank walls in the
region of unit depth Froude number is considerably greater, as was shown
by Newman and Poole. The drop in wave resistance (Eq. (fl)) at the cri-tica.]. speed does not depend on smoothing. Even when B/a = 61 , so that
the tank width is sixty-four times the model beam, there is a discontinuity
in resistance. coefficient of 0.188 . Thus steady-state experiments in this speed range are difficult.
The effect of side walls of an endless tank on the wave resistance
of an accelerating ACV is displayed in Fig. 10. Two different levels of acceleration in both deep water and finite depth were calculated. In all cases the wave resistance is a smooth function of the tank width.
For the low-speed range, increasing tank width generally decreases the
wave resistance. On the other hand, this trend is reversed for high
speeds (greater than the hump speed').
The case of infinite tank width is not plotted, in order to avoid
confusion with the case of B/a = , with whidh it is almost identical.
This difference in wave resistance coefficient for the cases calculated
is less than 0.01 , so that one might consider that a tank width equal
to four times the model beam to be essentially infinite.
Even in finite depth there is no sudden change in resistance as the
model accelerates through the critical depth Froude number. (A depth
Froude number of unity is passed when tv7 = l4.14 if /g = 0.05 ,
and when
t,Q = T.OT
if /g = 0.3. .) This sharply contrasts thecase of steady motion, in which the
drop
or discontinuity in waveresistance coefficient when d/a = 0.5 and B/a = is 3.0
in finite depth, and thus only the former is shown, in Fig. 11. The case of an infinitely wide tank is presented in Fig. ha for a/a = 1, 2 and In the region near t 0 , there is a slight increase in the resistance when a/a = 1 only. Incidentally, when a/a = 1 , part of the pressure "extends" beyond the starting end wall, so one must expect some interference. When a/a = 2 , the clearance from the starting end.
wall is half a craft length and there is no noticeable interference. The two curves for the finite values of a were calculated for a
tank.length L/a = 20 . There is no perceptible effect fromthe far end wall until the model "passes" through its image - as indicated by one or two oscillations in the curves near
t/7 =
20 .The case of B/a = 1 (that is, a two-dimensional pressure band) is
shown in Fig. hib. For the case of no nominal separation of the craft from the starting end wall at t = 0 , there is now a slightly greater effect on the wave resistance.

FORCES ON A YAWING ACV
THE POTENTLAL
We now consider the special case of an ACV travelling for a long
time in the longitudinal or x direction. The craft is either fixed in a steady yaw position, or it starts a yawing motion after initial transients have died away. We may therefore use Eq. (21) for the
po-tential, and drop the second term which will approach zero as t
-THE FORCES
The wave resistance is defined by Eq. and the side force by
s(t)
=
JJ
p5(,y,t)
y d dy .
(5)
Thus the side force is the positive force to port (the y direction) required to hold the craft on a straight course.
The analysis for the two forces now continues, as in the case for
rectilinear unyawed motion in horizontally unrestricted water. The forces are: t =

**
axis system x y z that rotates with the craft rather than the xyz system, in which the x axis lies in the direction of motion. This is illustrated in Fig. 12. The yaw angle c(t) is taken positive for
* clockwise rotation of the craft, when looking down on it.
If w

The four terms containing the cosine factors, and the

RESULTS
The (steady-state) wave resistance of a yawed ACV is shown in
Fig. 13. Fig. 13a indicates the marked effect of smoothing the pressure fall-off on a rectangular cushion, for a Eroud.e nber of unity. This is accentuated for yaw angles in the neighborhood of 100 and
85°.
The peaks would seem to be caused by interference between short wavelets
as short wave components are not produced by a smoothed distribution.
The slopes of the curves are zero at yaw angles of 00 900 as required by symmetry.
The variation of wave resistance of a smoothed distribution with yaw
angle for a series of different Froude numbers is displayed in Fig. 13b. P(w,u,'r) + Q(w,u,t) Q(w,u,t)} sin{w(s(t)
At super-hump speeds, yawing the vehicle increases the effective Froude
number so that the. resistance drops a little. On the other tiand, yawing at a sub-hump speed (for example, F = Q.) can bring the craft
onto the hump (at constant speed of advance), and thereby increase the resistance.
The wave-induced side force is shown in Fig. l. It is non-dimensionalized in the same mariner as the wave resistance in Eq. (35). The effect of smoothing on side force (Fig. J)4a) is seen to be even more vivid than on resistance (Fig. 13a). Increase in sharpness has a considerable effect on the side force for very small, or for very large,
yaw angles - even at this relatively high speed. At the same Froude
number, the effect of sharpness on unyawed wave resistance (Fig. 3a) was
considerably less. The linear theory predicts a peak dimensionless side
force of
2.63
in contrast to a dimensionless wave resistance of0.73
at zero yaw angle. It seems that nonlinear and viscous effects would
preclude the development of such large side forces in practice. Different Froude numbers are considered in Fig. llb.. The side force (for aa = a = 5) is seen to be positive for superhump speeds, and therefore favorable during a coordinated turn. It reaches a
inaxi-mum at a yaw angle of about
300
. Thus there is an optimum sideslipangle for generating the maximum side force. For subhuxnp speeds, there is a range of yaw angle in which the side force is negative.
Unsteady yawing motion is now considered. The side force for
dif-ferent rates of constant rotational speed after travelling at zero yaw
angle for a long time is presented in Fig. 15. The abscissa is the yaw angle, and is proportional to the time after the initiation of the
32
the available side force. However, as trpica]. average yaw rates are in the vicinity of 50 per unit time, it is clear that the unsteady in-fluence is of secondary importance. The side force q,ualitatively fol-lows the same trends at the two speeds considered, namely F = 0.6
(Fig. iSa) and F = 1.0 (Fig. 15b).
Finally, in Fig. 16, a manoeuver is studied, in which the yaw angle
is instantaneously öhanged from zero to 50, 100, 15° and 20°. The distance the ACV must travel before the steady-state side force is
achieved, is slightly greater for larger manoeuvers. Nevertheless, this effect is small Almost the full steady-state side force is generated
after the vehicle has moved one craft length at F = 0.6. (Fig.-16a), and after 1.25 craft lengths at F = 1.0 (Fig. 16b);
A favorable side force is developed inmiediately after this sudden yaw manoeuver, and then increases slowly at first. It may be shown that for a. small jump in yaw angle, the initially generated side force is just one half of the final steady-state side force. This feature is evident in the curves, particularly for the smaller manoeuvers.

CONCLUDING REMARKS
PRESENT WORK
Turning firstly to the. case of Rectilinear Motion in a Tank, it is
clear that the problem of interference from the side walls during
accelerated motion in finite depth water is considerably less than that during steady motion. Model tests under such unsteady conditions would be much easier to perform as a tank width equal to four times the model
beam essentially simulates the laterallyunrestricted case.
With. regard to the yawing ACV, the. great dependence. of side force at superhump speeds on smoothing was an unexpected result. So much so,
that it would be unrealistic to model the pressure under the craft with
a sharp distribution. Even assuming practical values of ca = a (which has a neglig-ibJ.e effect on unyawed wave resistance) reduces the maximum predicted induced side force by almost one half. A study of
the expression for the steady-state. forces, Eq. (5.0), reveals that this
difference is due to the high frequency oscillations in the integral
for 0 just less than ir/2 . The effect is worst for a yawed sharp
distribution when the oscillations decay very slowly and is further
emphasized in the integral for side force which contains a sin e factor, rather than the integral for wave resistance which contains a. cos 0 factor. A particularly large number of subdivisions in the
integration is therefore required under these conditions. This probably
explains the small discrepancies found at small non-zero yaw angles
and yaw angles just below 9Q0 , when attempting to verify the theoreti-cal wave resistance theoreti-calculated by Murthy
(1970)
and Everest(1969).
31
In practice, these high frequency wavelets probably break due to excessive theoretical steepness, and other practical effects such as cushion air flow.
The induced side force has nevertheless been found to be
signifi-cant, being of similar magnitude to the wave resistance. It clearly plays a role in the control of ACVs. This force has been experienced by drivers of air-cushion vehicles, who usually refer to it as "keel
effect1'.
During a trpical manoeuver, it has been found that the induced
side force is almost equal to the steady-state value at the sazae instantaneous yaw angle.
FUTURE WORK
It would be interesting to verify some of the above-mentioned
theoretical results by experimefit. In particular, one would like to
know how accurately the induced side force is predicted - or what the
equivalent smoothing wOuld be. Such an experiment would have to take
into account aerodynamic and momentum hide forces as veil as skirt
con-tact, which might be significant.
Numerical work can be extended in various areas. Further test cases, including the effect of finite depth might be examined. Incidentally, many manoeuvers are carried out in finite depth near the terminals. This aspect is therefore important.
Possibilities for theoretical work include an investigation into
the yawing moment acting on the vehicle about the vertical axis. Some experiments by Everest indicated that the craft is generally stable in yaw.
