Optimal path following for underactuated marine vessels

This report presents two optimization problems, where three cost-functions are suggested for each. The goal for the first optimization problem is to find a time variant look-ahead distance which improves the performance of the vessel in terms of the cross-track error, relative to constant look-ahead...
