On AUV control architecture [PDF]
Proceedings. 2000 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS 2000) (Cat. No.00CH37113), 2002 This paper surveys control architectures proposed in the literature and describes a control architecture that is being developed for a semi-autonomous underwater vehicle for intervention missions (SAUVIM) at the University of Hawaii. Conceived as hybrid, this architecture has been organized in three layers: planning, control and execution.

Visual Navigation for Recovering an AUV by Another AUV in Shallow Water [PDF]
Sensors, 2019 Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) play very important roles in underwater missions. However, the reliability of the automated recovery of AUVs has still not been well addressed. We propose a vision-based framework for automatically recovering an AUV by another AUV in shallow water.

Feasibility analysis of a wave powered autonomous underwater vehicle
Energy Conversion and Management: X, 2023 An autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) powered by renewable energy would enable it to extend endurance and forward presence with no logistics tail for fuel. A wave powered concept AUV is proposed and analyzed for this purpose.

A Unified Approach for Underwater Homing and Docking of over-Actuated AUV
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 During the implementation of time-consuming tasks such as underwater observation or detection, AUV has to face a difficult and urgent problem that its working duration is greatly shortened by the limited energy stored in the battery device.
