  • Abstract
    In this paper we develop a controller for underwater vehicle-manipulator systems. The main feature is to take into account the dynamics of thrusters in the design of the controller. In order to struggle with the nonlinearities of thrusters, we propose a new error representation for thrusters, and then we develop the robust adaptive tracking controller.
