Abstract :
The problem of multiple steady state solutions in the dive plane of submarine under depth control is analyzed. Generic solution branching is shown to occur below a critical Froude number. Bifurcation analysis and catastrophe theory techniques are employed to quantify the effects that various vehicle geometric properties and hydrodynamic characteristics have on steady state motion.
