Issues relating to energy efficiency, environmental protection and the reduction of global reserves of conventional fuels have prompted many automakers to focus efforts on developing more efficient and less polluting vehicle propulsion technologies. In this scenario, electric-hybrid vehicles (EHV) gained special prominence and are now considered real alternative to conventional vehicles.R…
This research focuses the design of an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV). The project goal is the development of a complete AUV, including the choice a configuration, the synthesis and analysis of a mathematical model and control laws, till the end goal which is the construction and test of a prototype. The complexity of vehicle hydrodynamical design suggests the use of computational, …
