RIB형 표적정의 수평면 조종운동 간략모델

Abstract

A Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB) is now widely used for commercial and military purpose. In this paper, it is supposed that seven-meter-class RIB be used as an unmanned target ship for naval training. In order to develop many tactical maneuvering patterns of a target ship, a simple horizontal maneuvering model of a RIB is needed. Therefore, models of speed and yaw rate are constructed as the first-order differential equations based on Lewandowski's empirical formula for steady turning circle diameter of a conventional planning hull. Some parameters in the models are determined using the results of sea trial tests. Finally, proposed models are validated through the comparison of the simulation result with the sea trial result for a specific scenario. Even though a simple model does not represent the horizontal motion of a RIB precisely, however, it can be used enough to develop tactical trajectory patterns.
