Rising fuel prices and shortages are making the hovercraft a desirable form of transportation. It is...

Frame Analysis : Hovercraft

The hovercraft frame is the main supporting structure of the hovercraft. This assembly main function is to provide the mounting space for the engine. The earliest design of the frame have major problem in term of the weight. It is a wise engineering practice to design the hovercraft as strong and light as...

Hovercraft Concept Design

There are several conceptual designs that I take into the consideration. The conceptual designs are as...

Introduction of this hovercraft design

A hovercraft is an air cushion vehicle (ACV) that travels above the earth’s surface on a cushion of air. The principle is based on fan drawing air from around the vehicle and pumping it down under the hull. This air is contained within the skirt trapping it between the hull and ground. As soon as the...

Project Summary : Hovercraft

In this Design Project I have been given to design a Air Cushion Vehicles (ACV). The ACV that I choose is hovercraft which can carry up to 4 passengers. A hovercraft is can travels through air pressure build up underneath the hovercraft by the means online antibiotics us of thrust engine and lift engine....
