Optimization of surface ship steering in sea state
Propulsion losses are increased by added drag due to steering of the ship. A carefully designed automatic steering control provides the desired heading while it simultaneously minimizes the rudder activity and holds the potentials for reducing propulsive losses. A computer model of the SL-7 containe...
