Overview of Ship Dynamic Positioning Simulator

doi:10.3969/j.issn.16740696.2017.02.19

Abstract

Abstract: Dynamic Positioning simulator is a closedloop control simulation system between theoretical research and practical application, which simulates the function and operating environment of dynamic positioning system by Virtual Reality technology. DP simulator is mainly used for the training of dynamic positioning operator and there is no domestic DP simulator with independent intellectual property rights. The components and working principle of DP simulator is analyzed herein and the key technologies of DP simulator are summarized. The development history of DP system and DP simulator are reviewed. The specific provisions are introduced regarding DP simulator operator training and certification carried out by the relevant international organizations such as NI, IMCA, and DNV and DP classifications are presented. Finally the system framework of one type of DP simulatior is presented and together with the feasibility of domestic DP simulators development are explored.

Key words: ship engineering, dynamic positioning simulator, development, performance standards, system components

摘要： 动力定位模拟器是一种介于理论研究和实际应用的闭环控制仿真系统，其通过虚拟现实技术来模拟动力定位系统的功能和操作环境。动力定位模拟器主要用于动力定位操作员的培训，但国内尚未研制出自主知识产权的动力定位模拟器。通过对动力定位系统和动力定位模拟器的国内外研究现状进行了综述，列举了相关国际组织如英国航海学会、国际海洋工程承包商协会、挪威船级社等对DP模拟器用于培训和认证的具体规定，以及对DP模拟器的分类，并提出了一种动力定位模拟器的体系架构以及我国开发DP模拟器的可行途径。
