Abstract

See full text

A maritime vehicle includes a surface for contacting a fluid medium through which the maritime vehicle is propelled. The maritime vehicle also includes an array of transducers and a controller. The transducers in the array are arranged across the maritime vehicle's surface for generating pressure waves in the fluid medium. Each transducer in the array is arranged to vibrate for generating a respective pressure wave, which propagates away from the surface in the fluid medium. The controller vibrates the transducers in the array so that the pressure waves control the drag of the maritime vehicle from the fluid medium.
