Abstract: |
The paper presents a concept
to develop a simulator for testing of the control systems of automated
handling systems for offshore vessels. The concept is based on using Bond
Graph for numeric modelling of physical systems,
then implementing the model on a platform which can
run and visualize simulations and communicate with the target control system
in real time. A simulator is implemented and tested for a Launch and Recovery
System (LARS) from Rolls-Royce Marine. The intention for this simulator is to
provide a platform for development and testing of the control system without
having a full scale physical system available, as that
can be both practically difficult and an expensive way of performing testing.
The simulator can also serve as a platform operational training as well as
testing and monitoring the performance of the machinery system effectively,
in particularly the characteristics of the hydraulic components during
runtime. |
