To study the hose-and-drogue system?s motion under bow waves, this paper established a dynamic model of the hose-and-drogue system based on the multibody dynamics theory and the rigid ball-and-rod model. The wake of a tanker aircraft was taken into accou...

Naval hydrodynamics typically focus on reducing ship resistance, which can be achieved by incorporating a bulbous bow. This feature is commonly used in the merchant fleet and smaller vessels, such as fishing boats, to minimize wave-making resistance. How...
