Design and Analysis of an Unmanned Ground Effect Vehicle

In this project an alternate transportation solution was worked upon, which would be capable of replacing the existing ones such as ships, hydrofoils, seaplanes, etc., that is an Unmanned Ground Effect Vehicle. An aircraft which would be able to transport a wide variety of payloads, near the coastal regions and would be amphibious in nature having the capability of landing anywhere. The aircraft would be better than the already existing mediums by the virtue of its enhanced payload fraction, payload efficiency, cruise speed, aerodynamic efficiency. In this project, I made an entire aircraft model from scratch, based upon my the calculations. After an extensive CFD analysis, the model was actually fabricated.
