Abstract
In this article, a ship maneuverability based collision avoidance dynamic support system in close-quarters situation is presented. The dynamic calculation model of collision avoidance parameter is employed to calculate the dynamic DCPA and TCPA in real-time when ship is maneuvering. Then the collision avoidance dynamic support system is developed by combining the mathematical model of ship maneuvering motion, the control mechanism of ship maneuvering motion and the dynamic calculation model of collision avoidance parameter. Following this approach, the proposed system is able to eliminate the insufficiency of neglect of ship maneuverability in the process of avoiding collision. Moreover, by incorporating the close-quarters situation into the proposed collision avoidance dynamic support system, simulation examples consisting three encounter scenarios of two ships in close-quarters situation are applied to demonstrate the significance and necessity of ship maneuverability in the process of collision avoidance and illustrate the merits and effectiveness of the proposed system. The simulation results show that the proposed dynamic support system is a reasonable, effective and practicable system for collision avoidance, particularly in close-quarters situation.
