Published: March 2022

This article presents a consistency control algorithm for the autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) group combined with the leader-follower approach under communication delay. First, the six-degree-of-freedom (DoF) model of AUV is represented, and the graph theory is used to describe the communication topology of the AUV group. Especially, a hybrid communication topology is introduced to adapt to large formation control. Second, the distributed control law is constructed by combining the consensus theory with the leader-follower method. The consistency control algorithms for homogeneous and heterogeneous AUV groups based on the leader-follower approach under communication delay are proposed. Stability criteria are established to guarantee the consensus based on the Gershgorin disk theorem and Nyquist law, respectively. Finally, numerous simulation experiments are carried out to show the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed algorithms.

Article Synopsis
  • Recent advancements have shown the use of Lie groups and Lie algebra in simplifying position and velocity computations in nonlinear robotic systems, particularly for localization.
  • The unscented Kalman filter (UKF) is effective for nonlinear systems, but applying it with Lie groups can be complex, so strategies for simplifying computations on manifolds are explored.
  • This paper presents a multi-sensor fusion localization method utilizing an unscented Kalman filter on manifolds, tested on an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV), which successfully improves trajectory estimation in underwater environments.

Adaptive sampling and situational awareness are key features of modern autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) since data quality can be improved while operation time and cost can be reduced. An example for adaptive sampling in the marine environmental context is thermocline detection and tracking. The thermocline as horizontal ocean layer separates warm and cold water and is a key feature in many marine disciplines.

Objective: To compare postnatal outcomes of anterior urethral valves (AUV) and posterior urethral valves (PUV) patients to evaluate for potential differences between these conditions, given that AUV with or without concomitant PUV is a rare congenital anomaly leading to lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO).

Methods: We reviewed our LUTO database and included patients with AUV or concomitant AUV+PUV, managed at our institution between 2003 and 2023 matching them to comparable PUV cases. Assessed variables included prenatal diagnosis, gestational age (GA) at birth, initial management, kidney function, presence and degree of hydronephrosis (HN), and need for renal replacement therapy (RRT).

Background: Mismatch repair-deficient (dMMR) tumors can be found in 10 to 15% of patients with nonmetastatic colon cancer. In these patients, the efficacy of chemotherapy is limited. The use of neoadjuvant immunotherapy has shown promising results, but data from studies of this approach are limited.
