Specific topics covered include:
* modelling and simulation of ocean waves;
* ship dynamics;
* models of actuators;
* ship roll stabilisation devices;
* ship motion performance;
* analysis of fundamental limitations for stabiliser control system design;
* constrained control design via optimisation;
* autopilot design using optimal control;
* wave filtering;
* control system design for autopilots with rudder roll stabilisation;
* control system design for integrated rudder-fin stabiliser.
Ship Motion Control will be of interest not only to the practising marine engineer but to the academic engaged in research into this important control problem, even if new to the area. It will also be an ideal source of reference for students and tutors involved with marine and control engineering courses.
