Deformation analysis and design of rubber webbed wings in multifunctional hybrid glider

Multifunctional hybrid glider(MHG) is a new type of platform for ocean observation, integrating the concept of underwater glider and wave glider. With the rubber webbed wings introduced and the structure redesigned, this vehicle can glide on the ocean surface and in the vertical profile. Based on the realization mechanism of MHG, the deformation model of flexible rubber webbed wing is established, and its deformation simulation results is achieved by setting some parameters, which will provide the reference for the design and selection of rubber webbed wing. MHG will be more suitable for large scale, multitasking and long-term three-dimensional ocean observation in the comprehensive and complex ocean environment.
