Research abstract
The Phase I proposal for the Navy will be an assessment of commercial products and control needs relative to dynamic positioning and motion control (motion cancellation via a multi-degree of freedom platform). Phase I includes computer simulations to identify ship to ship wave and wake interactions, development of control equations for landing craft steering and propulsion system, and control equations for a multi-degree of freedom motion platform. This system will cancel out hull motion during the off-loading of cargo in a Sea State 3 environment. There does exist an option for Phase I which is an evaluation of added LCU1600 hull control surfaces as an alternative for motion cancellation.
