Abstract

A benchmark control problem for supercavitating vehicles is studied. An initial investigation of solutions for the problem is also presented. At very high speeds, underwater bodies develop cavitation bubbles at the trailing edges of sharp corners or from contours where adverse pressure gradients are sufficient to induce flow separation.
