Chaos analysis of ship rolling motion in stochastic beam seas

Abstract

In this paper, the chaotic motion of ship roll in stochastic beam seas, which is regarded as a bounded noise is investigated in detail. The stochastic Melnikov approach is applied to the model and the criterion for the chaos in the mean-square sense is derived. The chaotic thresholds of noise parameters obtained by means of the stochastic Melnikov process are verified by the numerical safe basin. Besides of the factors of noise disturbances, the effects of the other parameters in the system on safe basin are also discussed systematically. The varieties of coefficients of the restoring moment can also induce the erosion of safe basin and lead to the occurrence of the chaos. On the other hand, the increase of damping coefficients can enhance the safe domain of ship sailing.

Studi Karakteristik Resonansi Gerak Rolling Akibat Perbedaan Karakteristik Lengan Stabilitas

“…Gerak oleng tidak stabil mulai terjadi pada rasio tinggi dan panjang gelombang sama dengan 0.04. Ketidakstabilan gerak roll dapat berakibat terjadinya penomena chaos yang dapat mengakibatkan terjadinya ketenggelaman [13]. Long, et al [14] menunjukkan bahwa resiko ketenggelaman kapal akibat ketidakstabilan gerak roll mengalami peningkatan secara signifikan ketika rasio tinggi dan panjang gelombang lebih besar dari 0.06 tetapi penomena stabilitas tersebut sudah mulai terjadi pada rasio sama dengan 0.045.…”

Alternative Method for Stability Assessment of Indonesian Traditional Wooden Boats

“…The effect of righting arm on a ship's roll motion characteristics in beam seas could also be investigated using a non-linear roll motion equation [8]. The minimum righting arm characteristics can be obtained based on a safe basin with a variation of initial condition as a combination of initial roll angle and initial roll angular velocity if the acceptable capsizing probability has been determined.…”

“…Specific methods include classical Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) control [3], adaptive fuzzy control, adaptive pulse perturbation [4], random Melnikov method [5], negative feedback algorithm [6], and chaotic synchronization based on the ant colony algorithm [7]. Alzarano et al [8] used the Melnikov method to study the bifurcation phenomenon of chaotic motion, while Bikdashetal [9] utilized it in researching the fractal state of rolling chaotic motion.…”
