摘要: A stability control system configured for total vessel pitch axis control by fast symmetric deployment of devices, coupled with engine trim adjustments and total roll and heading control by differentially deploying devices to counter rolling motions while simultaneously adjusting engine steering position to counter the steering moment associated with device delta position. The system includes a software control strategy comprising (1) a command looping saturation strategy to reduce drag and/or maximize roll performance and provide real-time ride stability to deliver a consistent device delta position even when one or more devices is at their minimum possible bias; and (2) an autopilot heading strategy comprising a feedback loop with means of actuation provided by the engine steering/rudder position and at least one pair of devices capable of producing a yaw moment.

摘要: A ship state including a rudder angle is estimated with high accuracy. A ship state estimator device is equipped with processing circuitry. The processing circuitry acquires an direction signal indicating an direction of a ship. The processing circuitry inputs the direction signal into a ship state estimator that outputs a ship state including a rudder angle, and estimates the ship state including the rudder angle.

摘要: A propulsion rudder for use with a water vessel, preferably an unmanned surface water vessel. The propulsion rudder includes a rotating base, a rudder assembly, and a thrust assembly. In one embodiment, the rudder assembly may comprise two vertical mast rudders connected by an upper horizontal wing, with the thrust assembly mounted on the horizontal wing. In a second embodiment, the rudder assembly may comprise an annular airfoil with the thrust assembly mounted on a mast and positioned in the center of the annular airfoil. The thrust assembly may be a propeller, a turbine, a ramjet, or a rocket.
