Abstract
We have developed VOW (vehicle on water) that can move in the rider's intended direction. However, the stability on water is not sufficient. In this paper, we derive the buoyancy and metacenter of frustum and simulate the stability on water. We propose the appropriate body size to improve the stability of VOW.
