In this paper the simultaneous roll reduction and course keeping problem for a surface vessel by means of active fins and rudder is addressed. This work extends the results proposed in [Carletti et al. (2010)] by considering an alternative nonlinear multivariable ship dynamics where the wave effects are modeled as forces and moments affecting the system dynamics rather than as disturbances affecting the control inputs. A theoretical analysis of the boundedness of the zero dynamics along with the design of a sliding mode control are proposed. Simulations results are provided to corroborate the theoretical analysis.

Abstract
In this paper the simultaneous roll reduction and course keeping problem for a surface vessel by means of active fins and rudder is addressed. This work extends the results proposed in [Carletti et al. (2010)] by considering an alternative nonlinear multivariable ship dynamics where the wave effects are modeled as forces and moments affecting the system dynamics rather than as disturbances affecting the control inputs. A theoretical analysis of the boundedness of the zero dynamics along with the design of a sliding mode control are proposed. Simulations results are provided to corroborate the theoretical analysis.File in questo prodotto:
