According to the nonlinear characteristics of ship motion, the four degrees of freedom nonlinear model of Fin/Rudder roll stabilization can be established. This paper analyzes energy consumption caused by overcoming the resistance and the yaw, which is added to the fin/rudder roll stabilization system as new performance index. In order to achieve the purpose of the roll reduction, ship course keeping and energy optimization, the self-tuning PID controller based on the multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) method is used to optimize performance index. In addition, random weight coefficient is adopted to build a multi-objective genetic algorithm optimization model. The objective function is improved so that the objective function can be normalized to a constant level. Simulation results showed that the control method based on MOGA, compared with the traditional control method, not only improves the efficiency of roll stabilization and yaw control precision, but also optimizes the energy of the system. The proposed methodology can get a better performance at different sea states.展开更多

Its stability is analyzed and the flow field is simulated with computational fluid dynamics method. Consequently, the pitching moment coefficient of the projectile is further investigated under the conditions of Mach number ranging from 0.3 to 0.8, attack angle from 0 to 8° and yaw angle from 0 to 4°. A trajectory equation is established and its trajectory characteristics are also explored. All the results of theoretical analysis, numerical simulation and trajectory equation agree well with each other, which indicates the projectile is flying steadily at the given conditions. These results provide an effective way for judging the stability of the projectile with wrap-around fins.展开更多

For parameter uncertainty of motion model, the controller is designed with mixed-sensitivity method based on H-infinity robust control theory. Simulation results show better robustness improved by this control method for roll stabilizing of AUV navigating near water surface.展开更多
