[PDF] Advances in Unmanned Marine Vehicles (IEE Control Series) Robert Sutton, Geoff Roberts

Unmanned marine vehicles (UMVs) include autonomous underwater vehicles, remotely operated vehicles, semi-submersibles and unmanned surface craft. Considerable importance is being placed on the design and development of such vehicles as they provide cost effective solutions to a number of littoral, coastal and offshore problems. This new book highlights the advanced technology which is evolving to meet the challenges being posed in this exciting and growing area of research.Also available:Advanced Robotics and Intelligent Machines – ISBN 9780852968536Flexible Robot Manipulators: Modelling, simulation and control – ISBN 9780863414480The Institution of Engineering and Technology is one of the world’s leading professional societies for the engineering and technology community.
