Simulation of Mooring Lines Based on Position-Based Dynamics Method [PDF]
The Position-Based Dynamics (PBD) method considers the rope as a series of particles in rope simulation. This paper introduces the PBD method and simulates mooring line in ship mooring simulation training system with four constraints, which are distance ...

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

Mooring system diagnosis and structural reliability control for position moored vessels [PDF]
Abstract Early diagnosis and fault-tolerant control are essential for safe operation of floating platforms where mooring systems maintain vessel position and must withstand environmental loads. This paper considers two critical faults, line breakage and loss of a buoyancy element and employs vector statistical change detection for timely diagnosis of

DP and the Art of Perfect Positioning [PDF]
How does a vessel keep its position at sea without mooring? The answer is through dynamic positioning, or DP. Advanced technology, combining position reference sensors, computers, propellers and thrusters, is used to counteract environmental forces such ...
