Investigation of Roll Motion Behavior in a Multi-Functional High-Speed Trimaran Unmanned Vessel

Abstract

<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">This study focuses on the multifunctional three-body high-speed unmanned boat model, and experimentally measures the roll attenuation characteristics under different draft conditions. It focuses on the influence of the initial roll angle on roll attenuation, and analyzes the change pattern of roll angle over time. Experimental results show that the model shows obvious self-oscillation period and amplitude attenuation. Based on the system identification theory and combined with improved genetic algorithms, a mathematical model used to simulate the roll attenuation motion of the boat model was constructed. The difference between experimental data and fitted values was further evaluated using identification software and verified with data at specific roll angles. In addition, the study also deeply analyzed the change trend of the roll moment coefficient with the initial roll angle. By comparing the experimental results of the three-mall boat and the catamaran, it was found that the three-mall boats were better than the catamaran in terms of roll resistance. These research results not only provide an important basis for the research on wave resistance of multi-body boat models, but also promote the technological progress of multi-body boats in wave resistance.</div></div>
