HYBRID COMPUTATION FOR THE SIMULATION OF THE MANEUVERING SHIPS
This paper describes the operation of the Netherlands Ship Model Basin ship maneuvering simulator. The simulator consists of two parts; a hybrid computer calculates ship motions and sets the bridge instruments while a projection system gives the pilot the impressions of the ship's motions. Also connected to the analog computer is the radar simulator on the bridge. The coastline image is generated from a photographic picture. The input for this is the position of the ship. There are also two moving targets installed. These targets can be controlled manually or by the analog computer.
