Localisation of Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUVs) in Complex and Confined Environments: A Review [PDF]
The inspection of aquatic environments is a challenging activity, which is made more difficult if the environment is complex or confined, such as those that are found in nuclear storage facilities and accident sites, marinas and boatyards, liquid storage tanks, or flooded tunnels and sewers.

Development of Deterministic Artificial Intelligence for Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUV) [PDF]
The major premise of deterministic artificial intelligence (D.A.I.) is to assert deterministic self-awareness statements based in either the physics of the underlying problem or system identification to establish governing differential equations. The key distinction between D.A.I.

Thruster Modeling and Controller Design for Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUVs) [PDF]
In this chapter, a new model of thrust force is proposed. First, the axial flow as a linear combination of the ambient flow and propeller shaft velocity is defined which are both measurable. In contrast to the previous models, the proposed model does not use the axial flow velocity which cannot be measured in real systems, but only uses measurable ...
