Abstract:This paper explores using steep regular waves to identifying safe operating conditions that avoid capsize. The data is from a multidisciplinary experiment using an autonomous scale-model running a proportional-derivative controller in aft of beam steep regular waves. The test explored relative wave headings from 15 • to 75 • and speeds from 0.1 to 0.4 Froude number. This effort analyzes the resultant ship trajectories to determine if the model obtained the desired operating conditions during each run. For slow… Show more
