The Seafloor Excavator, Volume Ii. Part I. Preliminary Design, Part Ii. Specifications
The system definition and analysis process through which a deep-ocean Seafloor Excavator is developed is described. Eight concepts are initially formulated and studied, with the three most practical being further developed. A comprehensive system and cost analysis of the three selected concepts is performed to determine the single, most effective concept. The preliminary design and the design specifications for this concept are developed. The resulting design is of a wide-tracked, remotely operated submersible vehicle equipped with a revolving, extendable (jackknife) dredging arm capable of performing earthmoving, excavating dredging tasks in waters as deep as 6000 feet. This report is comprised of four volumes. This Volume contains the preliminary design and specifications. (Author)
