Handbook of Marine Craft Hydrodynamics and Motion Control: Fossen/Handbook of Marine Craft Hydrodynamics and Motion Control

Abstract: The technology of hydrodynamic modeling and marine craft motion control systems has progressed greatly in recent years. This timely survey includes the latest tools for analysis and design of advanced guidance, navigation and control systems and presents new material on underwater vehicles and surface vessels. Each section presents numerous case studies and applications, providing a practical understanding of how model-based motion control systems are designed.

Output-Feedback Path-Following Control of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles Based on an Extended State Observer and Projection Neural Networks

Abstract: This paper presents a design method for output-feedback path-following control of under-actuated autonomous underwater vehicles moving in a vertical plane without using surge, heave, and pitch velocities. Specifically, an extended state observer (ESO) is developed to recover the unmeasured velocities as well as to estimate total uncertainty induced by internal model uncertainty and external disturbance. At the kinematic level, a commanded guidance law is developed based on a vertical line-of-sight guidance scheme and the observed velocities. To optimize guidance signals, optimization-based reference governors are formulated as bound-constrained quadratic programming problems for computing optimal reference signals. Two globally convergent recurrent neural networks called projection neural networks are used to solve the optimization problems in real-time. Based on the optimal reference signals and ESO, a kinetic control law with disturbance rejection capability is constructed at the kinetic level. It is proved that all error signals in the closed-loop system are uniformly and ultimately bounded. Simulation results substantiate the efficacy of the proposed method for output-feedback path-following of under-actuated autonomous underwater vehicles.

Survey on Fuzzy-Logic-Based Guidance and Control of Marine Surface Vehicles and Underwater Vehicles

Abstract: Fuzzy logic control, due to its simple control structure, easy and cost-effective design, has been successfully employed to the application of guidance and control in robotic fields. This paper aims to review fuzzy-logic-based guidance and control in an important branch of robots—marine robotic vehicles. First, guidance and motion forms including the maneuvering, path following, trajectory tracking, and position stabilization are described. Subsequently, the application of three major classes of fuzzy logic control, including the conventional fuzzy control (Mamdani fuzzy control and Takagi–Sugeno–Kang fuzzy control), adaptive fuzzy control (self-tuning fuzzy control and direct/indirect adaptive fuzzy control), and hybrid fuzzy control (fuzzy PID control, fuzzy sliding mode control, and neuro-fuzzy control) are presented. In particular, we summarize the design and analysis process of direct/indirect adaptive fuzzy control and fuzzy PID control in marine robotic fields. In addition, two comparative results between hybrid fuzzy control and the corresponding single control are provided to illustrate the superiority of hybrid fuzzy control. Finally, trends of the fuzzy future in marine robotic vehicles are concluded based on its state of the art.
