This thesis presents the computation of both steady and unsteady hydrodynamic derivatives required for the design and control of an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV). The unsteady hydrodynamic derivatives were determined by calculating the added mass force acting on the AUV using the Ansys AQWA so...
