Title
A computational framework for simulation of Underwater Robotic Vehicle systems
Abstract
This paper presents a computational framework for efficiently simulating the dynamics and hydrodynamics of Underwater Robotic Vehicle (URV) systems. Through the use of object-oriented mechanisms, a very general yet efficient version of the Articulated-Body (AB) algorithm has been implemented. An efficient solution to branching within chains is developed in the paper so that the algorithm can be used to compute the dynamics for the entire class of open-chain, tree-structured mechanisms.
