Adaptive fuzzy sliding mode controller for autonomous uderwater vehicles

This thesis presents an adaptive fuzzy sliding mode controller (AFSMC) for autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). Control of an AUV is a challenging problem due to the highly non-linear dynamics uncertain parameters and unpredictable external disturbances. Therefore, conventional control methods...
