Abstract :
This paper describes recent research on system design of a trimaran unmanned surface vehicle (TUSV) control system and a control scheme for such a vehicle. The trimaran is to be designed as a test bed for the implementation of new nonlinear control theories. The full system has been tested successfully in the manual operation and obtained useful data, which is to be analyzed and used in identifying the TUSV model and design advanced control technologies. A control methodology for trimaran, which is based on nonlinear dynamic equations with a simplified thrust-torque generation model valid for cruising is presented.
