Multibody marine robots, representing a promising research and development area, have gained acute attention and response from civil and military fields. A multibody marine robot is a multibody system composed of multiple single-body marine robots (defined as a unit) in a certain topology. Such a system is generally characterized by underactuation, hyperredundancy, power distribution, modularization and so on. Compared with traditional single-body marine robots, multibody marine robots can carry greater loads and have more forms of motion, so they can meet more specialized functional requirements. At the same time, they also have more complex hydrodynamic characteristics due to their unique structures and motion forms. In this paper, the types, features, and hydrodynamic characteristics of typical multibody marine robots are reviewed and summarized based on the connection structures between units. In addition, the development trends of multibody marine robots are analyzed and discussed. This review work anticipates positive attention from future readers regarding multibody marine robots, which represent an important subarea of marine robots.

“…The same depth control methods can be implemented in any kind of underwater vehicle. In some cases, vehicles in which combined screw propellers and undulating propulsion are used -so-called hybrid vehicles (HUUV) -may be desirable to fulfil specific underwater missions (Conry et al, 2013) (Ai et al, 2018) (Cai et al, 2020).…”

Unmanned underwater vehicles which use biomimetic mechanisms are becoming increasingly useful in the realisation of tasks requiring silent and efficient propulsion. Complex fish kinematics are simplified to some extent and implemented in such vehicles. One of the essential fish behaviours is their ability to adjust their buoyancy using a swim bladder. This paper covers the issues concerning the implementation of artificial swim bladders as well as depth regulators in two underwater vehicles: biomimetic and hybrid. The control of vehicle depth through buoyancy change was examined in the computer simulation and in the experiment. Two types of artificial swim bladder were tested – a rigid cylinder with a piston and an elastic container with a water pump.
