  • Abstract
    A method for designing a simulation of an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) equipped with a vectored thruster is given. Fuzzy sliding mode controllers are implemented and a general description is provided that will help the reader to understand the principle, comparing it with a standard PID controller. Results obtained by numerical simulation are given
