To solve the trajectory tracking problem of insufficient response and the large tracking error of remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) under the interference of large ocean currents, this paper proposes a double-loop sliding mode controller with an ocean current observer. The designed controller consisted of an outer-loop controller (the position controller) and an inner-loop controller (the velocity controller): the outer contro...

The reconstruction algorithm for the probabilistic inspection of damage (RAPID) is aimed at localizing structural damage via the signal difference coefficient (SDC) between the signals of the present and reference conditions. However, tomography is only capable of presenting the approximate location and not the length and angle of defects. Therefore, a new quantitative evaluation method called the multiple back propagation neu...
