Large-scale path planning for Underwater Gliders in ocean currents
Underwater gliders are a class of AUVs designed for high endurance over long distances, but their reduced velocity makes them more susceptible to ocean currents during deployment. Thus, feasible paths need to be generated through the ocean current field. This paper proposes a method for determining energy-optimal paths that account for the influence of ocean currents. The proposed technique is ...
متن کاملModelling the global coastal ocean.
Shelf and coastal seas are regions of exceptionally high biological productivity, high rates of biogeochemical cycling and immense socio-economic importance. They are, however, poorly represented by the present generation of Earth system models, both in terms of resolution and process representation. Hence, these models cannot be used to elucidate the role of the coastal ocean in global biogeoc...
متن کاملCoastal and Ocean Engineering
This course introduces maritime engineering, encompassing coastal and ocean engineering. It concentrates on providing an understanding of the many processes at work when the tides, storms and waves interact with the natural and human environments. The course will be a mixture of description and theory – it is hoped that by understanding the theory that the practice will be made all the easier. ...
متن کاملGo with the Flow: Optimal AUV Path Planning in Coastal Environments
This paper describes a novel optimum path planning strategy for long duration AUV operations in environments with time-varying ocean currents. These currents can exceed the maximum achievable speed of the AUV, as well as temporally expose obstacles. In contrast to most other path planning strategies, paths have to be defined in time as well as space. The solution described here exploits ocean c...
متن کاملToward Accurate Coastal Ocean Prediction
Several major problems, namely, uncertain surface forcing function, unknown open boundary conditions (OBC), and pressure gradient error using the acoordinate, affect the accuracy of coastal ocean prediction. At open lateral boundaries where the numerical grid ends, the fluid motion should be unrestricted. Ideal open boundaries are transparent to motions. The most popular and successful scheme i...
