Abstract

This article presents a modeling of the dynamics of the DEF-ALFA autonomous underwater vehicle designed within the search project PID UNDEFI 484/2019 of the National Defense University. This paper proposes an alternative method for classical method for the study of the dynamic characteristics of AUVs to apply it in the DEF-ALFA. Based on a methodology that uses the similarities between AUVs and airplanes, a simulation was obtained that allows analyzing the behavior of the AUV without the need to perform complex calculations.
