In this thesis, an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) was designed, built and tested. The dynamics of the AUV was modelled based on Fossen’s model and simplified due to the symmetries of the vehicle. With the hydrodynamic parameters obtained from computational fluid dynamics, the dynamics of the AU...
