Abstract
In this paper, an actively controlled anti-rolling system is considered to reduced the rolling motion of the ship. In this control system, a small auxiliary mass is installed on the upper area of the ship, and the actuator is connected between the auxiliary mass and the ship. The actuator reacts against the auxiliary mass, applying inertial control corves to the ship to reduce the rolling motion in the desired manner. in this paper, we apply the PID controller to design the anit-rolling control system for the controlled hip. And the experimental result shows that the desirable control performance is achieved.
