Abstract

Underwater gliders are mainly used to monitor the marine environment. In order to reduce the interference of self-vibrations, the rudder drive system of gliders is analyzed. Firstly, the meshing frequencies of the gears are calculated. Then, the vibrations of the actuator of rudder drive system are tested; and a finite element model of the rudder drive system of underwater glider is developed. Finally, the gear meshing frequencies and the vibration frequencies of the actuator are compared with the results from the finite element model analysis. The results show that the gear meshing frequencies and the vibration peak frequencies of the actuator are different from the natural frequencies of the rudder drive system, the system has no resonance and the structure design is reasonable one.
