Abstract

A Wing-In-Surface-Effect-Ship (WISES) is a high speed ship which utilizes the enhanced lift/drag ratio of aerodynamic wings in the proximity to the water surface. For most of WISES's ever built are for the militaly use or for the use on calm waters, their seaworthiness is not sufficient for the economical operation on open seas. The present authors have been studying a new concept of WISES with canard configuration as the next generation of commercial WISES's. The concept is the combination of the canard configuration and the forward mounted propellers. It is expected to have better takeoff performance in rough seas than that of conventional WISES's. This paper describes the experiments of a small radio controlled self-propulsion model as a primary validation of the concept. The experiments show that the model works as designed in its takeoff operation.
