Improved Underwater Vehicle Control and Maneuvering Analysis with Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulations

The quasi-steady state-space models generally used to simulate the dynamics of underwater vehicles perform well in most steady flow scenarios, and are therefore acceptable for modeling today\'s fleet of endurance-focused autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). However, with their usage of numero...
