Abstract:In this paper, a nonlinear controller for tracking a desired trajectory for an underactuated hovercraft is considered. It is a modification of a method known from the literature. However, the control algorithm considered here has two important features that differ from the mentioned control strategy. First, it concerns the case when the center of mass does not coincide with the geometric center, which results in additional forces and moments of force. The lack of symmetry causes the original trajectory trackin… Show more
