Routing strategies for underwater gliders
rapidly reach a specified waypoint or to maximize the ability to map a measured field, both in the presence of significant currents. For rapid transit in a frozen velocity field, direct minimization of travel time provides a trajectory ‘‘ray’’ equation. A simpler routing algorithm that requires less information is also discussed. Two approaches are developed to maximize the mapping ability, as ...
متن کاملStabilization and Coordination of Underwater Gliders
An underwater glider is a buoyancy-driven, fixedwing underwater vehicle that redistributes internal mass to control attitude. We examine the dynamics of a glider restricted to the vertical plane and derive a feedback law that stabilizes steady glide paths. The control law is physically motivated and with the appropriate choice of output can be interpreted as providing input-output feedback line...
متن کاملThe potential for Autonomous Underwater Gliders in large lake research
a r t i c l e i n f o While Autonomous Underwater Gliders (AUGs) have become a mainstay of coastal and open ocean observing , few observations have been made in lakes using AUGs. This short commentary discusses the role that gliders play in ocean observing systems, discusses a set of observations made in Lake Superior using an AUG, and presents some initial merging of glider and remote sensing ...
متن کاملTrajectory Planning on Grids: Considering Speed Limit Constraints
Trajectory (path) planning is a well known and thoroughly studied field of automated planning. It is usually used in computer games, robotics or autonomous agent simulations. Grids are often used for regular discretization of continuous space. Many methods exist for trajectory (path) planning on grids, we address the well known A* algorithm and the state-of-the-art Theta* algorithm. Theta* algo...
متن کاملEfficient Motion Planning and Control for Underwater Gliders
(ABSTRACT) Underwater gliders are highly efficient, winged autonomous underwater vehicles that propel themselves by modifying their buoyancy and their center of mass. The center of mass is controlled by a set of servo-actuators which move one or more internal masses relative to the vehicle's frame. Underwater gliders are so efficient because they spend most of their time in stable, steady motio...
