Fuel Optimal Thrust Allocation in Dynamic Positioning [PDF]
This paper is focused on the thrust allocation algorithm, which is a part of a Dynamic Positioning (DP) system in marine vessels with diesel-electric power system. In this paper the focus is on using the thrust allocation to make the diesel generators on board the vessel work more fuel efficiently, by reducing the total fuel consumption of all online ...

Design and Implementation of Pseudo-Inverse Thrust Allocation Algorithm for Ship Dynamic Positioning
The pseudo-inverse method cannot optimize the angle and needs to give the azimuth angle artificially, therefore, when the dynamic positioning system has variable vector propellers and rudders, the pseudo-inverse method cannot be applied to the full ...
