Development and Design of a Compact Autonomous Underwater Vehicle: Zeno AUV


Development and Design of a Compact Autonomous Underwater Vehicle: Zeno AUV is a scholarly work, published in 2018 in ''IFAC Proceedings Volumes''. The main subjects of the publication include aerospace engineering, marine engineering, Intervention AUV, computer science, quantum Zeno effect, Underwater acoustic communication, payload, architecture, deluge myth, propulsion, systems engineering, subaquaria, maritime safety, operon, automotive engineering, Zeno's paradoxes, and engineering. The paper describes the electromechanical design of a compact, light-weight Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) for archaeological applications; the vehicle is named Zeno (Zeno Environment Nautical Operator), protector of freshwater and flood victims, and was developed in the framework of the European project ARCHEOSUb; the AUV specifications, its navigation devices and payload are given.
