WAYS TO INCREASE THE EFFICIENCY OF SIMULATOR CONSTRUCTION FOR SHIPBOARD AUTOMATED POWER PLANTS
More than 75% of all accidents at sea are to some extent caused by improper human actions. These actions, in turn, owe largely to inadequate ship operator training. The authors examine the methods used for this training in the USSR, particularly those for training personnel to operate ships equipped with automated power plants. They find these methods to be essentially traditional and in need of review. They advocate the development of a single training system for all higher naval engineering schools and shipping companies. The system must be simulator-based and versatile, meeting requirements for operators to be trained to work on a variety of shipboard power plants. The design of an appropriate simulator for this purpose is outlined.
