Abstract :
The work presented in this paper describes a simulation procedure to investigate the six-degree-of-freedom motion of a remotely-controlled unmanned submersible. A mathematical model of the submersible has been deduced using the basic theory of the dynamics of rigid bodies, hydrodynamics laws and experimentally derived results.
