Abstract:
In recent years, underwater robotics has become very important because it can be applied to various fields such as underwater exploration, underwater inspection, marine industry, and environmental monitoring. Fin plays an essential role in the movement of underwater robots, providing operation, control, and efficient propulsion. This research aims to design and develop a unique robotic fin for underwater robots to improve their handling and propulsion efficiency. The goal is to improve the power density and propulsion efficiency of underwater survey robots. The study is based on a comprehensive analysis of experience and a performance evaluation. Five types of tail fin models were used in the study. The experimental results showed that the performance of the fin design can be compared with existing configurations under different conditions. The best design parameters will be determined by analyzing the experimental results. The results of this study will contribute to underwater robotics by providing a concept of the principles of fin design and its impact on the performance of robotics.

Abstract:
The increasing number of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) cooperating in underwater operations has motivated the use of wireless communications. Their modeling can minimize the impact of their limited performance in real-time robotic interventions. However, robotic frameworks hardly ever consider the communications, and network simulators are not suitable for HIL experiments. In this work, the UWSim-NET is presented, an open source tool to simulate the impact of communications in underwater robotics. It gathers the benefits of NS3 in modeling communication networks with those of the underwater robot simulator (UWSim) and the robot operating system (ROS) in modeling robotic systems. This article also shows the results of three experiments that demonstrate the capabilities of UWSim-NET in modeling radio frequency (RF) and acoustic links in underwater scenarios. It also permits evaluating several MAC protocols such as additive links online Hawaii area (ALOHA), slotted floor acquisition multiple access (S-FAMA) and user defined protocols. A third experiment demonstrated the excellent capabilities of UWSim-NET in conducting hardware in the loop (HIL) experiments.

Abstract:
For using underwater vehicle-manipulator systems (UVMS) in a challenging envi-ronment, it is important to have a good mathematical description of the systemwhich accounts for disturbances such as ocean currents. The dynamics equation onmatrix form is therefore derived and different properties such as positive definitenessand skew symmetry is obtained. Based on the derived equations, a sliding modecontroller has been designed in order to track trajectories in the configuration spaceof the UVMS. The controller is robust when it comes to uncertainties in dynamicsparameters and uncertainties in ocean current, yielding global asymptotic stabilityas long as the uncertainties are bounded.Furthermore, a kinematic control system has been designed for facilitating humanoperation of a UVMS, by allowing an operator to only control the end effectormotion. The rest of the motion is then resolved through a weighted least-normpseudo inverse solution of the Jacobian matrix, in order to avoid mechanical jointlimits. Moreover, the vehicle’s motion is controlled by an event based algorithm tolimit the motion of the vehicle. This is done by attaching a 3D meshed polygon tothe vehicle frame and check if the end effector is inside or outside this mesh. Themesh then represents the space, relative to the manipulator, were the end effectoris fully dexterous. The vehicle will then be commanded to move only when the endeffector reaches the outside of the meshed polygon.A simulator has been implemented, based on the derived equations. The simula-tions of the UVMS, with the two controllers, yields good tracking results for trackingtrajectories both in the workspace of the end effector and in the configuration spaceof the UVMS.

Abstract:
Dealing with underwater visibility is one of the most important challenges in autonomous underwater robotics. The light transmission in the water medium degrades images making the interpretation of the scene difficult and consequently compromising the whole intervention. This thesis contributes by analysing the impact of the underwater image degradation in commonly used vision algorithms through benchmarking. An online framework for underwater research that makes possible to analyse results under different conditions is presented. Finally, motivated by the results of experimentation with the developed framework, a deep learning solution is proposed capable of dehazing a degraded image in real time restoring the original colors of the image.
Una de las dificultades más grandes de la robótica autónoma submarina es lidiar con la falta de visibilidad en imágenes submarinas. La transmisión de la luz en el agua degrada las imágenes dificultando el reconocimiento de objetos y en consecuencia la intervención. Ésta tesis se centra en el análisis del impacto de la degradación de las imágenes submarinas en algoritmos de visión a través de benchmarking, desarrollando un entorno de trabajo en la nube que permite analizar los resultados bajo diferentes condiciones. Teniendo en cuenta los resultados obtenidos con este entorno, se proponen métodos basados en técnicas de aprendizaje profundo para mitigar el impacto de la degradación de las imágenes en tiempo real introduciendo un paso previo que permita recuperar los colores originales.

Abstract:
Underwater surveillance missions both for defense and civilian applications are continually demanding the need for unmanned underwater vehicles or UUVs. Unmanned vehicles are needed to meet the logistical requirements for operation over long distances, greater depths, long duration, and harsh conditions. In order to design UUVs that not only satisfy these needs but are also adaptive and efficient, there has been increasing interest in taking inspiration from nature. These biomimetic/bio-inspired UUVs are expected to provide significant improvement over the conventional propeller based vehicles by taking advantage of flexible bodies and smart actuation. In this thesis, jetting jellyfish were utilized as the inspiration to understand the fundamentals of this new form of propulsion and subsequently translate the understanding onto the engineered platform to validate the hypothesis and construct robust models. Jetting jellyfish species are generally smaller in dimensions than rowing jellyfish, consume lower energy for transport, and exhibit higher proficiency. In the second chapter, a bio-inspired stationary jet propulsion mechanism that utilizes an iris diaphragm actuation system was developed. Detailed discussion is provided on the design methodology and factors playing the leading role in controlling the vortex formation. The propulsion mechanism was intended to mimic the morphological and deformation features of Sarsia sp. jellyfish that measures approximately 1 cm in diameter. The performance of experimental model was analyzed and modeled to elucidate the role of structure and fluid displacement. Utilizing the results from Chapter 2, a free-swimming jellyfish-inspired robot (named JetPRo) was developed (also utilizing an iris diaphragm) in Chapter 3 and characterized for relevant propulsive metrics. A combination of theoretical modeling and experimental analysis was used to optimize the JetPRo's gait for maximum steady-state swimming velocity. Next, an attempt was made towards creating a free-swimming jetting robot (named JP2) using a guided cable mechanism to achieve the desired actuation and improve the propulsion while simplifying the drive mechanism. Using JP2 robotic model, a systematic set of experiments were conducted and the results were used to refine the theory. Based upon the comprehensive computational analysis, an optimized swimming gait was predicted and then validated. A modular robot inspired by siphonophores was developed and initial efforts were made in laying down the foundation for understanding of this complex locomotion mechanism. Siphonophores are colonial organisms consisting of several jetting bodies attached to a central stem. An experimental model was developed mimicking the multimodal swimming propulsion utilized by Siphonophores. Several swimming gaits inspired by the natural animal were replicated and the preliminary performance of the experimental model was quantified. Using these results, an analysis is presented towards further improving the design and assembly of a siphonophore-inspired robot.

Abstract:
Darrerament, l'interès pel desenvolupament d'aplicacions amb robots submarins autònoms (AUV) ha crescut de forma considerable. Els AUVs són atractius gràcies al seu tamany i el fet que no necessiten un operador humà per pilotar-los. Tot i això, és impossible comparar, en termes d'eficiència i flexibilitat, l'habilitat d'un pilot humà amb les escasses capacitats operatives que ofereixen els AUVs actuals. L'utilització de AUVs per cobrir grans àrees implica resoldre problemes complexos, especialment si es desitja que el nostre robot reaccioni en temps real a canvis sobtats en les condicions de treball. Per aquestes raons, el desenvolupament de sistemes de control autònom amb l'objectiu de millorar aquestes capacitats ha esdevingut una prioritat. Aquesta tesi tracta sobre el problema de la presa de decisions utilizant AUVs. El treball presentat es centra en l'estudi, disseny i aplicació de comportaments per a AUVs utilitzant tècniques d'aprenentatge per reforç (RL). La contribució principal d'aquesta tesi consisteix en l'aplicació de diverses tècniques de RL per tal de millorar l'autonomia dels robots submarins, amb l'objectiu final de demostrar la viabilitat d'aquests algoritmes per aprendre tasques submarines autònomes en temps real. En RL, el robot intenta maximitzar un reforç escalar obtingut com a conseqüència de la seva interacció amb l'entorn. L'objectiu és trobar una política òptima que relaciona tots els estats possibles amb les accions a executar per a cada estat que maximitzen la suma de reforços totals. Així, aquesta tesi investiga principalment dues tipologies d'algoritmes basats en RL: mètodes basats en funcions de valor (VF) i mètodes basats en el gradient (PG). Els resultats experimentals finals mostren el robot submarí Ictineu en una tasca autònoma real de seguiment de cables submarins. Per portar-la a terme, s'ha dissenyat un algoritme anomenat mètode d'Actor i Crític (AC), fruit de la fusió de mètodes VF amb tècniques de PG.
A considerable interest has arisen around Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) applications. AUVs are very useful because of their size and their independence from human operators. However, comparison with humans in terms of efficiency and flexibility is often unequal. The development of autonomous control systems able to deal with such issues becomes a priority. The use of AUVs for covering large unknown dynamic underwater areas is a very complex problem, mainly when the AUV is required to react in real time to unpredictable changes in the environment. This thesis is concerned with the field of AUVs and the problem of action-decision. The methodology chosen to solve this problem is Reinforcement Learning (RL). The work presented here focuses on the study and development of RL-based behaviors and their application to AUVs in real robotic tasks. The principal contribution of this thesis is the application of different RL techniques for autonomy improvement of an AUV, with the final purpose of demonstrating the feasibility of learning algorithms to help AUVs perform autonomous tasks. In RL, the robot tries to maximize a scalar evaluation obtained as a result of its interaction with the environment with the aim of finding an optimal policy to map the state of the environment to an action which in turn will maximize the accumulated future rewards. Thus, this dissertation is based on the principals of RL theory, surveying the two main classes of RL algorithms: Value Function (VF)-based methods and Policy Gradient (PG)-based techniques. A particular class of algorithms, Actor-Critic methods, born of the combination of PG algorithms with VF methods, is used for the final experimental results of this thesis: a real underwater task in which the underwater robot Ictineu AUV learns to perform an autonomous cable tracking task.

Thrust-vectoring on Autonomous Underwater Vehicles is an appealing directional-control solution because it improves turning radius capabilities. Unfortunately, thrust-vectoring requires the entire propulsion system be articulated in two degrees of freedom. Consequently, substantial internal volume must be utilized for this system, reducing payload and battery capacity. To combat this problem, an alternative thrust-vectoring system is desired for an existing vehicle. A number of alternative design strategies and concepts are explored herein. One design concept is then chosen and feasibility calculations are performed. Analysis of hydrodynamic loading, actuators, bearings, and structural components is conducted. The design is then reviewed and improvements are suggested.

Abstract:
Almost two thirds of the Earth's surface is covered in ocean, and yet, only about 5% of it is mapped. There are an unknown amount of sunken ships, planes, and other artifacts hidden below the sea. Extensive search via boat and a sonar tow fish following a standard lawnmower pattern is used to identify sites of interest. Then, if a site has been determined to potentially be historically significant, the most common next step is a survey by either a human dive team or remotely operated vehicle. These are time consuming, error prone, and potentially dangerous options, but autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are a possible solution. This thesis introduces a system for automatically generating paths for AUVs to survey and map shipwrecks. Most AUVs include software to set a lawnmower path for a given region of ocean, and individualized paths can be set via specifying GPS encoded nodes for the AUV to pass through. This thesis presents an algorithm for generating an individualized path that permits the AUV, equipped with a camera to "see" all sides of a region of interest (i.e. a shipwreck). This allows the region of interest to be completely documented. Photogrammetry can then be used to reconstruct a three-dimensional model, but a path is needed to do so. Paths are generated by a probabilistic roadmap algorithm that uses a rapidly-exploring random tree to quickly cover the volume of exploration space and generate small maps with good coverage. The roadmap is constructed out of nodes, each having its own weight. The weight of a given node is calculated using an objective function which measures an approximate view coverage by casting rays from the virtual view and intersecting them with the region of interest. In addition, the weight of a node is increased if this node allows the AUV to see a new side of the region of interest. In each iteration of the algorithm, a node to expand off of is selected based off its location in space or its high weight, a new node with a given amount of freedom is generated, and then added to the roadmap. The algorithm has degrees of freedom in position, pitch, and yaw as well as the objective function to encourage the path to see all sides of the region of interest. Once all sides of the region of interest have been viewed, a path is determined to be complete. The algorithm was tested in a virtual world where the virtual camera acted as the AUV. All of the images collected from our automatically generated path were used to create 3D models and point clouds using photogrammetry. To measure the effectiveness of our paths versus the pre-packaged lawnmower paths, the 3D models and point clouds created from our algorithm were compared to those generated from running a standard lawnmower pattern. The paths generated by our algorithm captured images that could be used in a 3D reconstruction which were more detailed and showed better coverage of the region of interest than those from the lawnmower pattern.

Abstract:
Abstract There is an increasing demand for robotics systems in production, inspection, and maintenance in the energy industry from offshore to onshore, to reduce operating costs and lower the risk of exposing humans to hazardous environments. However, a gap exists between existing workforce expertise and technologies that are developing rapidly. The deployment of robots requires the engineer to have rich experience in production and sufficient understanding of the robotic multidisciplinary system so they can identify and deploy the robot in the use case that can maximize the robot's efficiency. The nature of robotics and automation presents a challenge to the workforce since the existing workforce's background, in specific engineering disciplines or business, hinders them from adapting and then keeping up with the transition to robotic (not normally manned) operations. Directed by the University of Houston, the Subsea Systems Institute (SSI) is developing, in collaboration with Sprint Robotics, the National Robotarium (UK) and the Society of Underwater Technology (SUT), a robotic training program. The objective is to upskill and reskill the energy industry personnel (offshore and onshore) to meet the emerging industry demand for multidisciplinary robotics expertise. This group is collaborating to fill the gap between required knowledge and application in the energy industry by identifying the necessary knowledge and skillsets, and then developing an adaptable modular program with use cases to train the existing workforce. The SSI led effort will adjust to the differing needs that drive the adoption of this evolving technology, including engineers and scientists and other stakeholders such as managers, influencers, and the public.

Abstract:
It is always one of the most challenging problems to control an underwater robotics due to the complex external forces in an underwater environment. It is difficult to obtain an ideal control performance using linear control technologies due to highly nonlinear properties of system. A valid method of linearization for nonlinear system is provided in this study. Based on this linearized system, the linear control theories were therefore employed for the tracking control of underwater robotics. The panning and tilting motions of this underwater robotics can basically track two given sinusoidal references based on the simulation results. In order to achieve a high-speed manipulation of this underwater robotics, fluid forces have to be considered and modeled. A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technology is adopted in order to obtain more precise hydrodynamic models for simulation at the design stage. Two torque models that represent the degree of freedoms (DOFs) of panning and tilting respectively have been developed using the CFD software. The dynamic model of this robotics used in this paper is the one by Ji, et al [1].

Abstract:
Super-coiled polymer (SCP), one of the newly-developed artificial muscles, has various advantages over traditional artificial muscles in terms of cost, flexibility and power-to-weight ratio. This paper investigates the performance of super-coiled polymer-based actuation in underwater robotics, and presents a novel design of robotic fish using antagonistic SCP actuators. Dynamic model of the robot is derived. An example robotic fish prototype is developed and used in experiments to study SCP actuation for underwater robots. Furthermore, experimental results show that using SCP actuators in robotic fish solves the challenging heat-dissipation problem at ease, thus improving the dynamic response of SCP actuation significantly. A PID controller is designed to regulate the tail flap angle of the designed robotic fish. Simulation results of the closed-loop system are presented to validate the proposed robot design and actuation approach.
