Klimina Liubov
Prize for the best poster presentation "Asymptotic study of the model of a rowing boat"
Mathematical model of motion of a rowing boat is studied. The rowing system is based on a double slider-crank mechanism. Relatio between an average hydrodynamic force and an average inertia force is assumed to be sufficiently small. The Poincare-Pontryagi approach is used to describe, how an average speed of the body at steady motions depends on a control torque applied to a motor. A prototype of the boat was constructed and tested. Results of theoretical modelling qualitatively agree with experimental data.
