Autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) are marine vessels capable of performing various
marine operations without a crew in a variety of cluttered and hostile water/ocean …

Underactuated robotics is an emerging research direction in the field of robotics. The control
input of the underactuated robot is less than the degree of freedom of the system. It has the …

In this paper, a design method is presented for path-following control of underactuated
autonomous underwater vehicles subject to velocity and input constraints, as well as internal …

Offshore mechatronics systems engineering has recently received high attentions in various
sectors such as energy, transportation, etc. Specifically, offshore robotic vehicles have …

This brief is concerned with the distributed maneuvering of multiple autonomous surface
vehicles guided by a virtual leader moving along a parameterized path. In the guidance …

This article is concerned with the fast and accurate trajectory tracking control problem for a
sort of underactuated surface vehicle under model uncertainties and environmental …

In this paper, a method is presented for antidisturbance constrained control of autonomous
underwater vehicles subject to uncertainties and constraints. The uncertainties stem from …

This paper surveys the recent advances in marine mechatronic systems from a control
perspective. The survey is by no means exhaustive, but introduces some notable results in …

Docking trajectory planning for unmanned surface vehicles is challenging due to
complicated obstacle-avoidance in the harbor and highly nonlinear motion equations. In this …

This paper proposes an adaptive output feedback control for trajectory tracking of
underactuated surface vessels (USVs). For the realistic dynamical model of USVs, we …
