Abstract
A study of the CABSES vertical plane motions using the
6-D.O.F. Program for the XR-3 craft was performed with various
values of air flow rates in order to observe the sensitivity
of the craft heave, c, g. acceleration and plenum pressure
to variations in air flow rate. The frequency response due
to regular and complex seas as well as the transient response
due to a weight removal were used to observe the effect of
changes in air flow rate. A linear heave-only model is shown
to provide useful information concerning the effect of air
flow rate on the high frequency characteristics of the XR-3
craft.
