Experimental analysis of submerged flapping foils; implications for autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs)

Autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) have proven effective as ocean observing platforms for maritime operations. In most cases it is advantageous to operate ASVs for extensive missions in order to maximize their cost effectiveness. Such long endurance missions require ASVs to be capable of scavenging ambient energy from the surrounding ocean environment.
