Autonomous marine vehicles (AMVs) have received considerable attention in the past few
decades, mainly because they play essential roles in broad marine applications such as …

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 …

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 …

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 brief addresses the trajectory tracking control problem of a fully actuated surface vessel
subjected to asymmetrically constrained input and output. The controller design process is …

This paper presents a review on the development and application of model predictive
control (MPC) for autonomous intelligent mechatronic systems (AIMS). Starting from the …

This paper studies the trajectory tracking control of an autonomous underwater vehicle
(AUV). We investigate the nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) method looking for …

In this paper, we present a control strategy for trajectory tracking and path following of
generic paths for underactuated marine vehicles. Our work is inspired and motivated by …

In this article, a finite-time line-of-sight-based control (FTLC) scheme is presented for path
following of unmanned surface vessels (USV) subject to unknown time-varying sideslip …

Unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) are typically designed for open area marine
applications. In this paper, we present a new autonomy system (Roboat) for urban …
