Bias effects on motion stability of submersible vehicles

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited === This thesis analyzes the nonlinear characteristics of motion stability of a submersible vehicle in combined sway, yaw, and roll motions. Previous results, at zero pitch angles, indicate that limit cycles are generated as a result of loss of...
