Optical Distortion Induced by Cavitating Flow over Submerged Hydrofoils: A Coupled Computational Fluid Dynamics and Ray Tracing Study

Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) increasingly rely on optical sensors for navigation, reconnaissance, and environmental monitoring; however, high-speed operation near the air-water interface generates free-surface waves and cavitation that create strongly non-uniform density and refractive-index fields, causing im...
