Grid-Based Set Point Generation Strategy for Position Control of Dynamic Positioning Assisted Mooring System [PDF]

open access: yes한국해양공학회지, 2019
Unlike typical a dynamic positioning (DP) system, a DP-assisted mooring system must determine a set point (SP) that can ensure a mooring tension safety range to prevent an excessive increase in mooring tension.
