Opis

This book describes the main steps in developing a multi-physics simulation platform, representing the dynamics of a twin screw ship in six degrees of freedom. The interaction between the propulsion system and automation effects is also considered. The presented simulation methodology can be used in the preliminary ship design to analyse propulsion and control system action. Further applications can concern design optimization and crew training.
