Simulation and experimental study on control strategy of zero-speed fin stabilizer based on disturbance and compensation. [PDF]
Zero-speed fin stabilizer is applied to reduce the roll motion of ships at zero speed. This paper aims to explore the control strategy of zero-speed fin stabilizer through a composite method of theoretical analysis, simulations and tank tests.

Experimental study on the control form of fin stabilizer at zero speed. [PDF]
The zero-speed fin stabilizer is used to stabilize the roll motion of the ship at full speed. It has two working modes, that is the lift-based normal anti-rolling mode and the drag-based zero-speed anti-rolling mode. Different force generation mechanisms

Among the commonly used ship-stabilizing devices, the fin stabilizer is the most effective. Since the lift force of the conventional fin stabilizer is proportional to the square of the incoming flow velocity, it has a better anti-rolling effect at higher

L2-Gain Based Adaptive Robust Heel/Roll Reduction Control Using Fin Stabilizer during Ship Turns
The rolling and heeling experienced by a ship during turning will be more severe under the interference of winds and waves, which will seriously affect the navigation safety of the ship. The fin stabilizer is currently the best active anti-rolling device,

Numerical and Experimental Analysis of Lifting Forces of Fin Stabilizers with Fin–Hull Interaction
A fin stabilizer is one of the most effective and frequently used anti-roll devices for maintaining a ship’s operational safety and passengers’ comfort. However, the discrepancy between theoretical hydrofoil-based predictions and the actual dynamic lift ...

Modulating yaw with an unstable rigid body and a course-stabilizing or steering caudal fin in the yellow boxfish (Ostracion cubicus) [PDF]
Despite that boxfishes have a rigid carapace that restricts body undulation, they are highly manoeuvrable and manage to swim with remarkably dynamic stability.

Selection and evaluation of polar cruise fin stabilizer based on combination weighting-TOPSIS method
Objectives Many factors should be taken into consideration in the selection of a fin stabilizer for a polar cruise ship, such as environmental adaptation and device performance, and it should not be chosen via subjective judgment.

Experimental and Numerical Resistance Analysis for a Cruise Ship W/O Fin Stabilizers
Applying fin stabilizers is an effective solution for ship rolls on waves in a seaway. They generally consist of one or two pairs of retractable fins that are symmetrically mounted to both sides of the ship, effectively reducing the roll motion at low or
