Identifying these parameters is especially challenging for underwater vehicles as they are subject to hydrodynamics effects which cannot be neglected in the equation of motion. In this work we present a method for hydrodynamic parameter identification of micro underwater vehicles which allow full-size experiments due to their small size. The low-cost experimental setup consists mainly on a free fall mass and an angular encoder. In an experimental series the hydrodynamic parameters of the micro underwater vehicle HippoCampus [1] are identified and compared with the analytically derived parameter set.en1617-706120181Wiley-VCHConference Paper10.1002/pamm.201800350Other
