Real Time Prediction of Ship Hull Vibration.

Abstract

State space models describing the energy spectrum of the sea, the surface of the sea over an area, and a ship hull are developed. These models are used to find a Kalman Filter that will estimate the deflection of the ship hull from noisy measurements of several points along the hull. Various models for predicting the future deflections of the hull are tested. (Author)
