Underactuated Dynamic Positioning of a Ship -
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper considers the dynamic positioning problem for a ship having only two independent controls, namely surge force and yaw moment. A time-varying feedback control law including integral action is developed and proved to exponentially stabilize both the North and East positions and the orientation of the ship. Experimental results are presented where the controller is implemented on a model ship, scale 1:70, of an ooshore supply vessel. The experiments show that the ship converge to a neighborhood of the desired position and orientation, oscillating about stationary errors, and that with integral action in the control law these stationary errors are reduced.

متن کاملDynamic positioning and way-point tracking of underactuated AUVs in the presence of ocean currents
This paper addresses the problem of dynamic positioning and way-point tracking of underactuated autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) in the presence of constant unknown ocean currents and parametric modeling uncertainty. A nonlinear adaptive controller is proposed that steers an AUV along a sequence of way-points consisting of desired positions (x, y) in a inertial reference frame, followed by...

This paper addresses the problem of dynamic positioning of an underactuated autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) in the horizontal plane. A nonlinear adaptive controller is proposed that yields convergence of the trajectories of the closed loop system to a desired target point in the presence of a constant unknown ocean current disturbance and parametric model uncertainty. The controller is firs...
متن کاملComposite Nonlinear Feedback Control for an Underactuated Gantry System
This paper investigates the design of composite nonlinear feedback (CNF) control law for an underactuated gantry crane system to achieve positioning and anti-swing control. First, the dynamic model of a nonlinear underactuated gantry crane system is established by using the Euler-Lagrange modeling method. Then, the CNF control law is designed for the system to improve the anti-swing performance...
