Driving performance of underwater long-arm hydraulic manipulator system for small autonomous underwater vehicle and its positioning accuracy

A novel underwater long-arm manipulator (ULAM) and its improved small-flow hydraulic driving system (SHDS) are presented in this article for small autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV). In the process of manipulator design, a joint driving device consisting of linear hydraulic cylinder, three-bar link...
