AUTONOMOUS UNDERWATER VEHICLE ROBUST CONTROL [PDF]
The International Conference on Electrical Engineering, 2006 ABSTRACTThis paper discusses the autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) control performanceunder uncertainty using two different methods, linear quadratic (LQ) servo with commandfollowing and sliding mode control (SMC). In spite of the uncertainty in our evaluations ofthe hydrodynamic forces, it is fortunate that the use of feedback control is able to ...

A Soft Robotic Fish With a Dielectric Elastomer Actuator Body and Negative Stiffness Spine
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This work introduces a bio‐mimetic soft robotic fish driven by fiber‐reinforced dielectric elastomer actuators integrated as its body. By prestretching this active skin against a flexible spine, a negative stiffness system is created, enabling large‐amplitude bending.
