Numerical simulation of seakeeping performance of a trimaran small waterplane area center hull
[Objectives] Compared with trimarans, the trimaran small waterplane area center hull (TriSWACH)has a larger underwater ship and the waterline surface is greatly reduced,therefore,the seakeeping law of ordinary trimaran is not completely applicable to ...

Navigation control system is an important navigation building of inland‐river in China. Because of its special semiclosed structure, when the efficiency of the mutation control system is low, the ship system cannot identify the ship, which may endanger the life safety of the crew and cause water traffic accidents.

The ongoing development of deep‐sea resources has contributed toward the widespread use of dynamic positioning (DP) systems that can operate in arbitrary sea areas without the limitation of operating water depth compared to mooring systems. The second‐order slowly varying forces can be compensated by DP feedback control.

Abstract In order to tackle the marine practical constraints, for example the actuator faults, the dead‐zone input, an improved composite adaptive neural control algorithm is proposed for dynamic positioning vehicles in presence of the unknown external disturbances. In the algorithm, the robust neural damping technique is employed to remodel the system

Seakeeping index as generalized indicator of ship seakeeping performance
Object and purpose of research. This paper discusses the possibility of a ship design process that would consider seakeeping performance to the greatest extent possible. The purpose of this study was to work out a numerical indicator, an index, reflecting all the seakeeping properties relevant for suitability of given ship to its intended operational ...

Research on Ship Meteorological Route Based on A‐Star Algorithm
Ship meteorological navigation is based on hydrometeorological data of a certain time scale, considering the ship’s motion characteristics and its own characteristics. First, we provide the best route for the ship and then use real‐time local weather information to correct the route during the ship’s navigation.
