Features: This book provides a comprehensive discussion on issues related to ship handling performance prediction and port-harbor navigation simulation. It details the calculation methods for parameters involved in simulation models, a complete hydrodynamic calculation model for ship handling motion, and its simulation implementation. The book consists of nine chapters, covering topics such as ship handling performance simulation and prediction, ANN and its nonlinear mapping mechanism analysis, neural network computation for ship handling performance, general discussions on port-harbor navigation simulation, ship handling motion simulation, the establishment of port-harbor navigation simulation environments, and communication design for port-harbor navigation simulation systems. This book is suitable for researchers, engineering technicians, teachers, graduate students, and senior undergraduate students in related fields such as ship engineering, port, waterway, and coastal engineering, transportation, logistics engineering, and logistics management.
