Abstract


This paper presents an integrated approach to the manufacturing and assembly of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs). A structure computational model is developed to optimize the design and structural integrity of the AUV. The procurement process is analyzed, emphasizing the selection of components based on performance, reliability, and cost considerations. The fabrication phase focuses on utilizing advanced manufacturing techniques, such as additive manufacturing and composite materials, to produce high-quality AUV components. Finally, the assembly and installation stage is discussed, highlighting the importance of precision engineering and efficient integration of parts and components. This comprehensive framework ensures the production of reliable and functional AUVs, contributing to advancements in underwater exploration and research.
