Since its beginning, around the 50s decade, until present days, the area of unmanned
underwater vehicles (UUV) has considerably grown through time; those have been used for …

This paper presents a hierarchical disturbance rejection depth tracking control scheme for
the underactuated autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) with comparative experimental …

This paper presents a hybrid controller that combines sliding-mode control (SMC) with a
fuzzy strategy to regulate the vertical displacement of a bioinspired robotic dolphin. The …

In this paper, a model predictive control (MPC) method based on quantum-behaved particle
swarm optimization (QPSO), combining with sliding mode control (SMC), is studied to solve …

This study investigates a new chattering-free robust predefined-time sliding mode control
(CFRPSMC) scheme for the trajectory tracking control problem of a three-degree-of-freedom …

The underactuated autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) depth‐tracking approach is
presented in this research along with comparative field experiments. First, a model‐free …

Omnidirectional mobile robots are holonomic vehicles that can perform translational and
rotational motions independently and simultaneously. The paper provides a detailed …

Depth control is very important for underwater robot in nuclear power plant, especially when
the robot needs to perform special tasks at specific depths under the water. Aiming to realize …

Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are powerful instruments that enable the
exploration of the ocean. In recent years, AUVs have been developed considerably …

Human Occupied Vehicle (HOV) is one of main tools to investigate submarine resources
