Development of Onboard Ship Maneuvering Simulators and their Application to Onboard Training

This paper describes how the authors have developed two types of onboard ship maneuvering simulators and a new onboard training method utilizing an onboard Ship Maneuvering Simulator (SMS) that makes practical onboard training for cadets more successful and efficient. The paper also describes the outline of the developed simulators and the results of an experiment conducted on a training ship that aimed at assessing the feasibility and the effectiveness of the proposed training method. Based on the results of the experiment, the authors propose an optimal combination of onboard SMS training with real training on a training ship and they designed another onboard SMS to overcome the limitation of the first onboard SMS.
