    • Diseño y estudio de un sistema de aerofreno de un "hydroplane" 

      Gonzalez Reverte, Francisco Javier (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2007-07-06)
      Master thesis (pre-Bologna period)
      Open Access
      El presente Trabajo de Fin de Carrera tiene como objetivo el estudio aerodinámico de un hydroplane, una barca motorizada exclusiva para carreras. Los hydroplanes son las barcas más rápidas que existen y se llaman hydroplanes ...

    • Numerical investigation into the influence on hydrofoil vibrations of water tunnel test section acoustic modes 

      Wang, Wei; Zhou, Lingjiu; Wang, Zhengwei; Escaler Puigoriol, Francesc Xavier; De La Torre, Oscar (2019-06-17)
      Article
      Restricted access - publisher's policy
      High-speed water tunnels are typically used to investigate the single-phase and two-phase flows around hydrofoils for hydraulic machinery applications but their dynamic behavior is not usually evaluated. The modal analysis ...
    • Numerical investigation of the cavitation effect on natural frequencies of a hydrofoil 

      Liu, Xin; Zhou, Lingjiu; Escaler Puigoriol, Francesc Xavier; Wang, Zhengwei (2016)
      Conference report
      Open Access
      The added mass effects on a NACA0009 hydrofoil under cavitation conditions determined in a cavitation tunnel have been numerically simulated using finite element method (FEM). Based on the validated model, the effects of ...
    • Projecte d’un avió contra incendis amfibi 

      Ayats López, Roger (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2015-06)
      Master thesis (pre-Bologna period)
      Open Access
      El nombre d’aeronaus amfíbies dissenyades per a l’extinció d’incendis és molt reduït. Només s’ha desenvolupat un únic model específicament amb aquest objectiu, mentre que els altres són meres adaptacions d’aeronaus comercials ...

    • Study on the hydrofoil application on amphibious aircrafts 

      Agirre Mosquera, Iban Amauri (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2022-07-14)
      Bachelor thesis
      Open Access
      This Bachelor’s thesis proposes a preliminary study on the use of hydrofoils on amphibian aircraft. It contains a summary on seaplane and hydrofoil technology, followed by theoretical introduction in fluid dynamics and the ...
