The full surface vehicle model which is closer to real system should have 6 DOF. However, common practice in modeling is to reduce this model to 3 DOF (surge, sway, and yaw) model taking into account the horizontal motion of the vehicle. The model is highly nonlinear and as a result the used equations of motion are complicated. In order to simplify the control methods many researchers apply linearization of the dynamic model. The obtained controller is easier to design but usefulness of such approach is limited in comparison with a strategy based on more complicated nonlinear models. This chapter gives the equations of motion for a vehicle in horizontal motion and then shows the same equations expressed in terms of IQV.
