Identifying the parameters of a dynamic autonomous undersea vehicle — environment system
A method for identifying some parameters of a dynamic undersea vehicle — environment system, such as a moment of inertia of rotating drive components with regard to the adjoint moments of inertia and a viscous friction factor of a propeller, is proposed. Simulation validated the high rate of convergence of the desired parameters to the true values.

CMAC neural network architecture for control of an autonomous undersea vehicle
The design of an autonomous undersea vehicle (AUV) control system is a significant challenge in light of the highly uncertain nature of the ocean environment together with partially known nonlinear vehicle dynamics. This paper describes a neural network architecture called Cerebellar Model Arithmetic Computer (CMAC).

Propulsive and maneuvering performance of two joints biorobotic autonomous undersea vehicle SPC-III
Biorobotic autonomous undersea vehicle SPC-III, developed by Robotics institute, BeiHang University, is a mission-scale autonomous submersible vehicle. The submersible vehicle possesses a torpedo-shape rigid hull. The aft section is a two joints caudal fin thruster driven by two servo motors, which may be substituted by a screw propeller maintaining ...

Simulated navigations of an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) achieved by the minimum time guidance within undersea areas of current disturbances are presented. When an AUV has to transit to a given destination within an area of current disturbance, ingenious guidance enables the minimum time navigation.

A Biorobotic Pectoral Fin for Autonomous Undersea Vehicles
A biorobotic fin for autonomous undersea vehicles (AUVs) was developed based on studies of the anatomy, kinematics, and hydrodynamics of the bluegill sunfish pectoral fin. The biorobotic fin was able to produce many of the complex fin motions used by the sunfish during steady swimming and was used to investigate mechanisms of thrust production and ...

A precision navigation system for autonomous undersea vehicles
Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institution, Inc. (HBOI) and Kearfott Guidance and Navigation (KGN) Corporation have teamed to develop a low-cost inertial navigation system for autonomous undersea vehicles. The navigation system will be ideally suited for mine countermeasures missions as well as other scientific and commercial missions.
