Abstract:Thrust allocation (TA) is an important component in dynamic positioning (DP) system of marine vessels. It plays a crucial role in offering power optimisation while meeting physical constraints of actuators in the vessel. Non-linear objective functions in TA formulation poses challenge to deriving the solution of TA schemes. While numerical optimisation techniques have tried to offer solution, the ability of neural network to model non-linearity offers a good technique of solving it. In this paper, design of co… Show more
