The development of advanced multivariable, linear and nonlinear control design methods with applications to marine vehicles
This thesis primarily concerns control and identification of FPSO and Shuttle Tanker vessels, where nonlinear hydrodynamics raise the associated issue of nonlinear control. A 3-DOF model is presented for investigating Dynamic Positioning control, a problem where directional thrusters maintain ship p...
