A simulation environment for unmanned underwater vehicles development
MTS/IEEE Oceans 2001. An Ocean Odyssey. Conference Proceedings (IEEE Cat. No.01CH37295), 2002Logistics problems and high costs necessary to carry out experiments with robots in hazardous environments such as the open sea led to the development of simulation environments (SE) where the physical robot and the operating environment can be substituted by real-time simulators in a way that is completely transparent to the robot's control and ...

Morphing hull implementation for unmanned underwater vehicles
Smart Materials and Structures, 2009Benefits of aircraft morphing might be applicable to unmanned undersea vehicles (UUVs) as well. UUVs may perform under a wide variety of operational requirements involving slow speeds, moderate speed travel, and high speed attack/escape during execution of a single mission.

Toward a generalized architecture for unmanned underwater vehicles
2011 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2011A common feature of unmanned vehicles is their complexity, which grows apace and provides its own challenges. Frameworks for managing this growing complexity have always been one of the key aspects of designing an unmanned vehicle. In this paper, a generalized architecture is proposed to not only address the complexity in developing an unmanned vehicle,

Surveillance unmanned underwater vehicle
Proceedings of OCEANS'94, 2002A self-powered unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) outfitted with forward looking, side scan sonar and laser imaging systems will provide a highly effective clandestine mine survey. A similarly outfitted system provided a new cost effective commercial site survey and pipeline inspection capability. >

A quadrotor-like unmanned underwater vehicle
2016 Chinese Control and Decision Conference (CCDC), 2016A quadrotor-like unmanned underwater vehicle, named QUUV, is presented in this paper. It has four thrusters, which can be inclined configuration. It is designed and implemented based on hydrodynamic optimization. The mathematical model is built and the difference with ordinary underwater vehicles is discussed.

Obstacle Avoidance by Unmanned Underwater Vehicle
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2016Paper presents method of obstacle avoidance used in the example of unmanned underwater vehicle. The solution of this problem is divided into stage of: obstacle detecting and shape determination, decision making and control signal generation. The process to avoid an obstacle is presented as iterative model of behavior of dynamic system based on an array

Robust control of an unmanned underwater vehicle
Proceedings of the 37th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (Cat. No.98CH36171), 2002The paper briefly describes the design of a robust controller for an unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) using polynomial eigenstructure assignment. The controller decouples the vertical motion and the pitching motion of the UUV using a first order dynamic feedback structure.
