Beschreibung
This book is an in-depth treatment of the dynamic positioning (DP) system of marine vessels. The book guides readers intuitively through the steps in development of a DP controller. It shows the reader how to aggregate and assimilate knowledge from many related fields from vessel dynamics, through environmental disturbance modeling, to control design. The book covers a wide range of DP controllers from the basic proportional–integral–differential system to the most advanced system that employs nonlinear model predictive control.
Starting with the system description of a vessel and modeling relevant to control, the authors detail the physical model testing and field trials required for ship-model calibration. The book treats the interaction between environmental disturbance and vessel dynamics and pays detailed attention to filtering and estimation theories and their application to vessel-state estimation. This includes developments in the simultaneous estimation of states and unknown disturbances.
The implementation of such state-of-the-art work is described using easy-to-follow flowcharts and pseudocodes. Simulation studies provide performance evaluation results and downloadable MATLAB® code is provided to enable easy replication of many of the examples. A literature review and coverage of developing areas such as ice DP round out a comprehensive review of modern DP research.
Dynamic Positioning Control will be of interest to graduate students, researchers, academics, and engineers in the field of ocean engineering.
Guides the reader through an intuitive, algorithm-based, and in-depth treatment of dynamic positioning in marine vessels Explains the implementation of dynamic positioning controllers as an easy-to-follow step-by-step process Provides MATLAB® codes which assist in explaining and replicating examples in the text
