This article describes the design, modeling and identification of the main hydrodynamic parameters of an underwater glider vehicle is presented. The equations describing the dynamics of the vehicle is obtained from the Euler-Lagrange method. The main hydrodynamic parameters were obtained considering the geometry of the vehicle and its operating characteristics. Finally, simulation open loop system are presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
