The position and orientation control of an underwater planar vehicle, actuated by rear thrusters with longitudinal control was considered in dynamic setting. The maneuvring control of the vehicle allowed the drag coefficient modulation in the sway direction. The trajectory of the marine vehicle was compared with that of the terrestrial case. It was found that the modulation function increased its action as the sway velocity increased with respect to the absolute distance.

Abstract
The position and orientation control of an underwater planar vehicle, actuated by rear thrusters with longitudinal control was considered in dynamic setting. The maneuvring control of the vehicle allowed the drag coefficient modulation in the sway direction. The trajectory of the marine vehicle was compared with that of the terrestrial case. It was found that the modulation function increased its action as the sway velocity increased with respect to the absolute distance.File in questo prodotto:
