ADA Separable Submarine Study
1971
Anderson, Victor C. | Rumble, H. P.
This is a summary of the initial study phase for the ADA (Advanced Detection Attack) separable submarine. The contrasting functions of the two units are described and a number of alternative configurations are presented. Trade-offs between cost of structural materials and cost of buoyancy materials are shown graphically, with an indication of the least cost combination. Preliminary volume estimates are given for each of the hulls. A suggested alternative scheme involving three hulls instead of two is discussed. Selected aspects of the mating or docking operation are analyzed mathematically, and parametric curves showing the relationships among the important factors are presented. A preliminary estimate of the optimum frequency for a passive detection sonar array is calculated.
