| Abstract | This chapter explores essential applications of marine autonomous surface ships, with a particular emphasis on dynamic positioning, trajectory tracking, and collision avoidance. Each section provides a detailed discussion on the control problem and strategies utilized, highlighting the advances in control methodologies. A brief literature review and mathematical formulation on each control problem are presented. This chapter includes an experimental case study conducted using a scaled model Magne Viking supply vessel to demonstrate the practical implementation of control strategies. The experimental results show the performance of the vessel in dynamic positioning, trajectory tracking, and static obstacle avoidance, illustrating the effectiveness and robustness of the different control algorithms. |
