Abstract :
In this paper, we describe the research progress about the path planning for AUVs in underwater space. Considering the importance of water current for underwater movement, we modeled a pillar of a sea wide-bridge and an AUV, P-SURO II, and then simulated and confirm the distorted water current around them, using OpenFOAM CFD tool.
