Abstract :
This paper described a method of establishing a coordinated simulation system of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV). In order to increase the degree of similarity for simulation system and real environment of AUV, mechanical properties of the virtual prototype, which was created by Pro Engineer software, were defined in ADAMS software based on physical prototype. An interactive coordinated simulation system was established based on the ADAMS/Controls combined with MATLAB/Simulink. The results of the simulation offered references for establishing the control system of physical prototype.
