Fault-Tolerant Region-Based Control of an Underwater Vehicle with Kinematically Redundant Thrusters

This paper presents a new control approach for an underwater vehicle with a kinematically redundant thruster system. This control scheme is derived based on a fault-tolerant decomposition for thruster force allocation and a region control scheme for the tracking objective. Given a redundant thruster...
