Underway replenishment is essential for ships performing long-term missions at sea, which
can be formulated into the problem of leader-tracking configuration. Not only the position …

Cargo transfer vessels (CTVs) are designed to transfer cargo from a floating production
storage and offloading (FPSO) unit into conventional tankers. The dynamic positioning …

For the ship sailing in the seaway, usually the rudder is used to control the heading and the
fin stabilizer is used to reduce rolling. However, there are interactions between their control …

Shipborne stabilized platform is an important equipment to ensure the stability of shipborne
equipment relative to inertial coordinate system. This paper presents a model predictive …

In the traditional motion control method of an unmanned sailboat, the sail and rudder are
divided into two independent controllers. The sail is used to obtain the thrust and the rudder …

An efficient model predictive control design for ship autopilot, which is a representative
marine application, is proposed based on projection neural network in this article. Ship …

The problem of path following for marine surface vessels using coordinated rudder and
propeller control is addressed in this paper. The same problem was addressed in using …

Communication delays are crucial in ship formation control. This paper proposed a
cooperative control scheme for ship formation tracking with communication delays based on …
