Manning and maintainability of a submarine Unmanned Undersea Vehicle (UUV) program a systems engineering case study [PDF]
The purpose of this thesis is to study the manning and maintainability requirements of a submarine unmanned undersea vehicle (UUV) program. This case study reviews current commercial and military applications of UUVs and applies their principles to the

Evaluating SOFC-based Power System Concepts for Unmanned Undersea Vehicles [PDF]
System concepts for powering an unmanned undersea vehicle (UUV) with a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) power generator are developed and evaluated through modeling studies of variations in system configurations and design parameters. System concepts that meet the continuous electrical loads for sustained operations and mission selectable capabilities for

Navigation of an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle for Shortest Time Sensor Data Collection
This paper addresses the problem of navigation of an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) for effective sensor data collection from an underwater sensor network. The AUV is launched from an unmanned surface vehicle (USV) located at some sea surface point, collects sensor data, and then arrives at the same USV at some other sea surface point.

Investigating the mobility of unmanned ground vehicles
Unmanned Vehicles have to be as capable if not more capable than a human in the same situation, especially when used by the military to serve as an extension of the soldiers capability on the battlefield.

This paper presents the first orthonormal basis function (OBF) framework adapted for passive magnetic detection of DC current‐carrying submarine telecommunications cables, extending Anderson's dipole‐based approach to cable‐like source configurations. Two orthonormal basis functions are derived from the Biot‐Savart law and integrated into a generalised
