چکیده

Observations: This project is part of the Ripples DRI, in which the spatial and temporal variations of the seabed are being examined in a field site on the West Florida shelf. We are using the autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) REMUS (Figure 1) to make better measurements of the spatial distribution of ripples, both during active conditions as the ripples are modified during energetic sea-states, and during quiescent conditions when the ripples are a product of previous energetic events. The AUV was equipped with a sidescan sonar to measure ripple geometry and a pencil-beam sonar to measure ripple

Hybrid Adaptive Neural Network AUV controller design with Sliding Mode Robust Term

This work addresses an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) for applying nonlinear control which is capable of disturbance rejection via intelligent estimation of uncertainties. Adaptive radial basis function neural network (RBF NN) controller is proposed to approximate unknown nonlinear dynamics. The problem of designing an adaptive RBF NN controller was augmented with sliding mode robust term ...

Using Autonomous Underwater Vehicles as Sensor Platforms for Ice-Monitoring

Due to the receding sea-ice extent in the Arctic, and the potentially large undiscovered petroleum resources present north of the Arctic circle, offshore activities in ice-infested waters are increasing. Due to the presence of drifting sea-ice and icebergs, ice management (IM) becomes an important part of the offshore operation, and an important part of an IM system is the ability to reliably m...
