The problem of the coupling of the vertical movement control with roll movement in fast ferries

Robust Control for the Coupling of Lateral and Longitudinal Dynamics in High-Speed Crafts

“…Continuous linear models were identified (Aranda, et al, 2004b). Equations (7)-(9) show the transfer functions G TFoil40 (s), G flaps40 (s) and G fins40 (s).…”

“…Firstly, heaving and pitching motion for head seas (µ=180deg) (Aranda, et al, 2004a, de la Cruz et al 2004, modeled actuators and different designed controllers (Aranda, et al, 2002a, Aranda, et al, 2002b were studied in order to achieve heave and pitch damping with successful results. Secondly, the rolling response was analyzed for lateral waves (µ=90deg) (Aranda, et al, 2004b) and actuator modeling and controller design were also carried out. In this work the study was extended to different incidence angles between 180 and 90 degrees.…”

Research of Combined Control Scheme for Fast Catamaran Motion Control Using T-foils and Interceptors

“…Firstly, researchers paid attention to the longitudinal oscillations alleviation [13]. Lately, they noticed that the transverse oscillations especially the roll and yaw motions also induce harmful effect on the seakeeping performance [17]. Then they launched a new research, in which the transverse oscillations alleviation using fin stabilizers were carried out simultaneously with the improvement of longitudinal vibrations [18] [19].…”

Identification of longitudinal and transversal dynamics of a fast ferry

“…Firstly, heave and pitch motion for the case of head seas (angle of incidence μ=180º) have been studied (Aranda et al, 2004a), then actuators are modeled and different controllers are designed (Aranda et al, 2002a(Aranda et al, , 2002b(Aranda et al, , 2005Cruz et a., 2004) in order to achieve heave and pitch damping and with successful results. Secondly, in the same way, the rolling response has been modeled, with the design of actuators and controllers for the case of lateral waves (μ=90º) (Aranda et al, 2003(Aranda et al, , 2004b.…”
