Obtaining spatially separated, high‐frequency water samples from rivers and lakes is critical
to enhance our understanding and effective management of freshwater resources. In this …

This article addresses a problem of seabed terrain following control (STFC) for an
underwater vehicle-manipulator system (UVMS). The motivation is to perform a visual …

We present an approach for planning collision-free paths on-line for an underwater multi-
robot system, which is composed by a leading Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) …

Real-time obstacle and terrain avoidance is highly necessary for an autonomous
underwater vehicle maneuvering near the rugged seafloor. This paper aims at an obstacle …

针对参数摄动以及外界环境扰动条件下欠驱动水下无人航行器(UUV) 地形跟踪控制任务,
提出了一种基于反步法(Backstepping) 和积分滑模控制方法(ISMC) 的地形跟踪控制策略. 首先 …

保持对海底地形的定高跟踪航行是无人水下航行器(UUV) 执行海洋勘测和水下目标搜索任务
时常采用的一种运动形式, 其核心是UUV 如何对未知起伏的海底地形进行实时探测 …

为保证自主水下航行器在进行地形跟踪任务时, 可以更好地抵抗外界环境及自身信号传输的干扰
作用, 提出一种基于自抗扰控制技术的地形跟踪控制方法, 可以将地形跟踪转化为水下机器人的 …

We present a seabed profile estimation and following method for close proximity inspection
of 3D underwater structures using autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). The presented …

In this paper we discuss about the design and development of an “Autonomous Amphibious
Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (AAUAV)” that can fly autonomously to the polluted water areas …

This thesis proposes new methods to find collision-free paths allowing an AUV to cover an
area of the ocean floor with its sensors, which is known as coverage path planning. First, we …
