Additionally, the constraints posed by the lack of velocity measurements and input saturation are considered for each USV. For this purpose, two types of distributed position-based control schemes are presented to constitute formation shape and track target trajectory by steering multiple USVs. The first control scheme is based on acquiring absolute position measurements and communication data, while the second control scheme relies on relative position measurements. In the two aforementioned control schemes, two different types of observers are scheduled to provide essential data support for the corresponding controllers. Then, the unknown data that include unknown model dynamics and external disturbance are approximated by a fuzzy logic system and adaptive laws, respectively. In addressing the issue of controller input saturation, a smooth function and auxiliary system are imported to eliminate the effect of actuator saturation. Finally, suitable Lyapunov functions are selected to analyze the theoretical feasibility of the two designed schemes. Corresponding digital simulations are exhibited to further examine the robustness and effectiveness of the designed control schemes.","PeriodicalId":20667,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part M: Journal of Engineering for the Maritime Environment","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141928450","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Technology has evolved significantly since its inception in the 19th century, with modern AUVs capable of operating at great depths for extended periods. This review paper provides an overview of the latest advancements in the domain of AUVs path planning. One of the critical challenges for AUVs is navigation in the complex and unpredictable marine environment and AUVs must overcome obstacles such as reefs, rocks, and shipwrecks to reach their destination. The paper focuses on the difficulties AUVs face in the ocean environment, mainly related to path planning. It emphasizes path planning with an optimal solution from the origin point to the final point. The path planning method is classified into two parts, global and local, to handle static and known obstacles and dynamic and unknown obstacles, respectively. This review paper has discussed the several path-planning methods for AUV, and strategies deployed for validating them through experimentation and simulation. The paper ends with a recommendation for future research on the path planning of AUVs.","PeriodicalId":20667,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part M: Journal of Engineering for the Maritime Environment","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141928520","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper proposes a novel reliability analysis method of the hull structure based on Generalized Polynomial Chaos (GPC). GPC surrogate models for performance functions are developed for two typical cases with different distributions within the hull structure. The variations in mean, standard deviation, reliability index and failure probability with respect to GPC expansion order and sample size are analysed and compared with traditional methods, including Monte Carlo (MC) and the First-Order Reliability Method (FORM). The results indicate that the GPC-based method is effective for handling random variables of various distributions in hull structures. Moreover, the proposed method demonstrates superior convergence and accuracy compared to MC and FORM. By circumventing the need for extensive sample calculations for real structural models, the GPC-based method enhances computational efficiency. The feasibility and efficiency of the GPC-based structural reliability analysis method are validated, offering a promising new approach for assessing the reliability of hull structures.","PeriodicalId":20667,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part M: Journal of Engineering for the Maritime Environment","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141886349","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, a two-dimensional planar static numerical model considering the riser global motion coupled with the nonlinear seabed interaction is developed. The planar co-rotating beam element is established based on the co-rotating coordinate method, the vertical soil resistance is simulated by the semi-empirical pipe-soil interaction model. And the global displacement of the riser and the soil resistance of the seabed are coupled in the co-rotational framework by the principle of minimum potential energy. Finally, the parametric effects of buoyancy configurations and riser structural characteristics are analysed. The results show that the established numerical model is suitable for solving the vertical pipe-soil interaction between riser and nonlinear seabed. Compared with SCR, the maximum embedment depth of SLWR in the TDZ is reduced by 23.5%, and the maximum vertical soil resistance is reduced by 8.26%. In the two buoyancy configuration adjustment methods, increasing the buoyancy section length obviously changes the shape of SLWR, resulting in significant changes in the embedment depth and vertical soil resistance.","PeriodicalId":20667,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part M: Journal of Engineering for the Maritime Environment","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141886351","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nevertheless, container ports are still considered independent systems separately in formulating scheduling plans. This research explores a new multi-port berth allocation problem (MPBAP) with continuous berth layout considering the mutual influence between ports. The MPBAP is compared with the single port berth allocation, and effects of different numbers of vessels continuously berthing at all ports on a single route on the MPBAP are discussed through vessel operation rate. The problem is formulated by a mixed integer programming model by minimising the total port stay time of all vessels. The quay is highly discretised and a GA coupled with parallel computing is applied to accelerate the search for the optimal model solution. A case study is conducted on two adjacent container ports located along the Yangtze River. Results show that multi-port coordinated scheduling is efficiency and the total port stay time of all vessels reduces by an average of 2.63% under the MPBAP. With more than four vessels berthing continuously at two ports on a single route, the MPBAP shows a higher vessel operation rate and the rate gap between the two models exceeds 2%. The approach suggested in this study can enhance the port system’s efficiency and provide a new idea for coordinated scheduling in other port groups.","PeriodicalId":20667,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part M: Journal of Engineering for the Maritime Environment","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141868638","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The traditional method uses the modified Bayes algorithm for fault feature extraction from different signals, then the fault features are fused through the Dempster-Shafer evidence theory, and finally, the severities of the faults are obtained by the grey relation analysis method through the fused features. But for weak thruster faults, in the stage of feature extraction, it exists the problem that the ratios of fault eigenvalues to noise eigenvalues of the extracted features are low. In the stages of feature fusion and severity identification, it exists the problem that the errors of the identification results obtained from the fused fault features are not satisfactory. Aiming at the above problems, the smoothed pseudo Wigner-Ville distribution together with the modified Bayes method is presented for feature extraction for weak faults. The feature-level fusion together with the decision-level fusion method is presented for feature fusion and severity identification for weak faults.

After the dynamic analysis of the underwater vehicle and its thruster, the output dimension constraint, input amplitude constraint, and state amplitude constraint were set. Based on these three constraints, the recursive cerebellar neural network is used to identify the time-varying and nonlinear unknown faults in the underwater vehicle online, and a deep convolution neural network is used to detect the known faults of the underwater vehicle. The error correction output code is then combined with a support vector machine to classify the detected faults. Finally, the output fault-tolerant control of an underwater vehicle is realized based on adaptive sliding mode control. The experiment shows that after the application of this method, because the recursive cerebellar neural network and the deep convolution neural network can estimate the size of the fault information in time, the sliding mode fault-tolerant controller can readjust the output of the controller according to the result of the fault identification to offset the effect of the fault on the robot, so that the robot can continue to maintain the original stable operation state. Even if the thruster has faults, this method can adjust the output of the thruster in time and reconstruct and recover the total control output, so that the actual output thrust is very close to the expected value, to achieve fault-tolerant control of the underwater vehicle output.","PeriodicalId":20667,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part M: Journal of Engineering for the Maritime Environment","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141509584","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Over the investigated speed range of 0.2 < Fr < 0.4, interference factors are evaluated for four demihull separation ratios ( s/ L) and two demihull slenderness ratios ( L/∇1/3). The implications on total life-cycle CO2 emissions are presented as a function of total vessel resistance, and the significance discussed. A separation ratio of s/ L = 0.220 provides the lowest overall resistance, however other configurations provide superior results for specific Froude numbers. The concept of transportation capacity is introduced and used to demonstrate the advantage of slower speeds for the electric powertrain through identification of a critical Froude number Fr = 0.35, above which transportation capacity is reduced as a consequence of the low energy density of Nickel Manganese Cobalt (NMC) batteries. A comparison is also made between the electric and equivalent LNG and diesel powertrains to demonstrate the effect of fuel carbon intensities on standardised vessel CO2 emissions. Through analysis of the transportation capacity and emissions reduction of the electric vessel, a speed of Fr = 0.28 is proposed as a compromise between the two, with further power and emissions reductions achievable near this speed by adopting a narrower hull separation ratio of s/ L = 0.151.","PeriodicalId":20667,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part M: Journal of Engineering for the Maritime Environment","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141509587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
