Modelling Manoeuvrability in the Context of Ship Collision Analysis Using Non-Linear FEM
Ship collisions are rare events that may have a significant impact on the safety of people, ships, and other marine structures, as well as on the environment.

Iterated nonlinear control of ship's manoeuvring models [PDF]
This paper addresses the control design for a nonlinear vessel manoeuvring model. The authors consider a highly nonlinear vessel 4 DOF model. The proposed control algorithm consists of a combination of an iteration technique that approximates the original nonlinear model by a sequence of linear time varying (LTV) equations whose solution converge to ...

Application of CFD Methods for the Assessment of Ship Manoeuvrability in Shallow Water [PDF]
Safety in water transport plays a significant role. One way to increase safety in the waterways is to ensure that ships have proper manoeuvrability. Evaluation of manoeuvring properties performed at an early stage of design can detect problems that later

ABSTRACT Medieval and early modern drowned villages in the intertidal zone of the Scheldt estuary (the Netherlands) constitute intriguing yet largely understudied components of north‐western Europe's underwater cultural heritage. Despite their high archaeological potential as time capsules of past settlement landscapes, research has remained limited ...
