22. 22 Linear motion equations Linear equations can only be used when –The vehicle is dynamically stable for motions in horisontal and vertical planes –The motion is described as small perturbations around a stable motion, either horizontally or vertically –Small deflections of control planes (rudders) –For symmetric bodies the 6 DOF equations can be split in two sets of motion equations 2 DOF coupled heave and pitch 3 DOF sway, yaw and roll

23. 23 Dynamic stability Characteristic equation for linear coupled heave - pitch motion: –( A*D**3 + B*D**2 + C*D + E) θ = 0 Dynamic stability criteria is: –A > 0, B > 0, BC – AE > 0 and E>0 Found by using Routh’s method

24. 24 Dynamic stability (cont) For horisontal motion the equation (2.15) can be used if roll motion is neglected The result is a set of two linear differential equations with constant coefficients Transform these equations to a second order equation for yaw speed Check if the roots of the characteristic equation have negative real parts If so, the vehicle is dynamically stable for horisontal motion
