Real-time Autonomy and Maneuvering Simulation of an Unmanned Underwater Vehicle Near a Moving Submarine Using Actively Sampled Gaussian Process Surrogate Models

Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UUV) maneuvering simulators have severe limitations on modeling UUV motion near a moving submarine because they are not capable of determining the complex, turbulent, hydrodynamic interactions in real time. Potential flow solvers are typically fast enough, but they negle...
