Hopf bifurcations in path control of marine vehicles

The problem of loss of stability of marine vehicles under cross track en-or control in the presence of mathematical versus actual system mismatch is analyzed. Emphasis is placed on studying the response of the system after initial loss of stability of straight line motion. Center manifold reduction...
