Course content

Two topics of 3,75 ECTS each shall be selected. The most relevant topics for this in-depth study (FDE) are:
- Computer-based modelling and control of marine systems (3,75 ECTS),
- Fault-tolerant control for marine systems (3,75 ECTS),
- Dynamic analysis of marine structures (3,75 ECTS),
- Experimental methods in marine hydrodynamics (3,75 ECTS),
- Marin mechatronics (3,75),
- Hydroelasticity (3,75),
- Ice-1 (3,75 ECTS),
- Ice-1 (3,75 ECTS).
At Department of Engineering Cybernetics the following topics are relevant:
- Robotics (3,75 ECTS),
- Nonlinear motion control(3,75 ECTS),
- Kalman filtering and navigation(3,75 ECTS).
The choice of topic depends upon the selected specialisation and is to be approved by the project thesis supervisor (or the faculty in charge).

Learning outcome

This subject aims at giving in-depth knowledge of problems relevant for marine control systems.

Learning methods and activities

The topics are presented by lectures, possibly accompanied by exercises, seminars or self studies. The exam is to be held within the exam period, also when the initial exam is delayed.

Recommended previous knowledge

Good understanding within marine technology and control theory. Relevant marine tchnology disciplines/areas are hydrodynamics, marine structures, marine engineering and/or operations.

Course materials

To be agreed with responsible lecturer.
