Stability analysis of nonlinear coupled barge motions

The present research investigates nonlinear barge motions through analyses of coupled multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) deterministic and stochastic models. Roll-Heave-Sway and other lower-ordered models are developed to predict the nonlinear motions and analyze the stability of a class of ship-to-shor...
