In this paper, the main goal is to reduce the heave motion between a surface effect ship (SES) and a wind turbine in order to safely transfer equipment and person to SES.For this purpose, an LQR control system is designed to damp the vertical motion of the surface effect ship in critical Bag sea states including high-frequency and high amplitude regular waves as well as high frequency irregular waves.The simulation results show the high quality of the system control in the studied sea condition.A comparative analysis of LQR and PID approaches demonstrate the high performance of the new designed control system.
The STRAW BENT proposed controller outperforms the traditional PD.
