Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) Fest 2007 Summary

OCEANS 2007, 2007
This paper will summarize the results of AUV Fest 2007. AUV Fest 2007 was hosted by the Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City (NSWC PC) at the Naval Support Activity Panama City (NSA PC). This Sea Trial Project and FORCENet Enabling Demonstration was the largest in-water demonstration of unmanned underwater, surface, air and ground vehicles ever ...

Hydrothermal exploration using Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs)

10th International Congress of the Brazilian Geophysical Society & EXPOGEF 2007, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 19-23 November 2007, 2007
Thirty years after the first discovery of seafloor hydrothermal venting no more than 90% of the global mid-ocean ridge crest has been investigated for seafloor hydrothermal venting. Until recently entire ocean basins had remained unexamined. What was needed was a new, more efficient mode of exploration that could not only detect for the presence of ...

Alister – Rapid Environment Assessment AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle)

2010
ECA is mainly known worldwide for its successful PAP family (mine disposal systems). In the late 1970s, ECA designed the first operational AUV, named EPAULARD for IFREMER. Using its know-how gained over the years in designing and building various types of free swimming and inspection underwater vehicles, ECA decided in spring 2003 to develop the A3000,

Trajectory Tracking Control of an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Using Lyapunov-Based Model Predictive Control

IEEE transactions on industrial electronics (1982. Print), 2018
This paper studies the trajectory tracking control problem of an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV). We develop a novel Lyapunov-based model predictive control (LMPC) framework for the AUV to utilize computational resource (online optimization) to ...

Trajectory Tracking Control of Autonomous Underwater Vehicle With Unknown Parameters and External Disturbances

IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics: Systems, 2019
Most studies so far on trajectory tracking control of autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) have assumed that the Euler angles are exactly known. However, the AUV inevitably suffers from external environmental disturbances which are driven by wind, density,

Autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) investigations to protect valuable invertebrates

2011 IEEE Symposium on Underwater Technology and Workshop on Scientific Use of Submarine Cables and Related Technologies, 2011
The lancelet is an important animal in evolutionary studies. Artificial proliferation is necessary to secure individuals for experiments. However, the number of individuals and their habitats are decreasing remarkably in the Ariake Sea. Despite the transplantation of frys, the number of adults has not increased.

Environmentally sensitive autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) behavior design

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2011
The design of environmentally adaptive behaviors for AUVs conducting active ASW is discussed within the framework of the MOOS-IvP middleware. The control of a single or a group of autonomous, collaborative AUVs in the underwater environment requires the installation of on-board autonomy to enable the vehicles to optimize their trajectories and ...

Emerging Mapping Techniques for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs)

2016
Seafloor environments at ever increasing depths on the continental shelf are being resolved at ever higher resolutions as a result of changing sensor technologies and, in part, with the emergence of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) as stable survey platforms.

Launch and Recovery of an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle From a Station-Keeping Unmanned Surface Vehicle

IEEE Journal of Oceanic Engineering, 2019
In-water tests of automated launch and recovery (L&R) of a Hydroid REMUS 100 autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) from a station-keeping 16-ft wave adaptive modular vehicle unmanned surface vehicle (USV) have been conducted to determine the feasibility of
