Trade-O Dhiraj K. Pradhan Nitin H. Vaidya Department of Computer Science Texas A&M University College Station, TX 77843-3112 fpradhan,[email protected] Abstract Performance and reliability achieved by a modular redundant system depend on the recovery scheme used. Typically, gain in performance using comparable resources results in reduced reliability. Several highperformance computers are not...

A non-linear mathematical model, for the roll-yaw behaviour of a ship, is used to predict the prevention of capsize of a small ship. The problem was simulated using the digital package SIMULINK. Simulated responses of the ship with simple hydrodynamic fin stabilisers show that capsize could have been prevented by this means in waves up to 7 m in height. Active control using a simple full span c...

INTRODUCTION This paper focuses on the development of optimal deterministic, nonlinearly coupled barge motion models, identification of their system parameters and calibration of their prediction capability using experimental results. The ultimate objective is to develop accurate yet sufficiently low degree-offreedom stochastic models suitable for efficient probabilistic stability and reliabili...
