TY - JOUR A1 - Ovalle, Diana AU - Periago Esparza, Francisco AU - García Peláez, Javier T1 - Numerical simulation of the manoeuvrability of an underwater vehicle Y1 - 2009 UR - http://hdl.handle.net/10317/1169 AB - A six degree of freedom (6-DOF) nonlinear mathematical model for a submarine is proposed. Then, the problem of manoeuvrability control for this vehicle is formulated as an unconstrained optimal control problem which is solved by using a gradient descent method. Simulation results presented are rooted by two requirements which are of a major importance in naval industry, and they are compared to a classical linear model.
