Efficient Time-Domain Simulation of USV Motions in Short-Crested Irregular Waves Using an IRF-Based Framework
- 基于冲量响应函数的时域框架,通过卷积直接计算波浪力,避免重复正弦波模拟。
- 在真实海况下预测的运动幅值、周期与实测数据高度一致,误差小。
- 30度方向分辨率可兼顾精度与计算效率,适合实时控制与长时间仿真。
传统时域船舶运动预测依赖多个正弦波分量叠加,计算成本高,尤其不适用于无人水面艇(USV)的长时间仿真与实时应用。本文采用基于冲量响应函数(IRF)的时域框架,通过频域分析获取弗劳德-克里罗夫力、衍射力和辐射力,并转换至时域。利用卷积实现瞬时波浪力重构,无需重复进行规则波仿真。通过瞬时浸湿表面压力积分考虑弱非线性回复力,使用方向性波谱表征真实海况。该方法在离岸补给船长浪横浪不规则波模型试验及真实海况下USV全尺度实测数据上进行了验证,预测的显著运动幅值、均零交叉周期、标准差及运动时序均与实测吻合良好。研究还考察了方向谱离散化的影响,结果表明运动幅值对方向分辨率较敏感,而周期相对不敏感;30度方向间隔在精度与计算成本间达到良好平衡。该框架为真实方向性不规则海况下USV高保真时域运动预测提供了高效工具。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Traditional time-domain prediction of vessel motions in irregular waves usually relies on superposing responses from many regular-wave components, which is computationally expensive for long-duration simulation and real-time applications. This issue is particularly relevant to unmanned surface vehicles (USVs), for which efficient and realistic motion prediction is needed for seakeeping assessment, simulation-based testing, and control-system development. This study applies an impulse response function (IRF)-based time-domain framework to predict vessel motions in short-crested irregular waves. Froude-Krylov, diffraction, and radiation loads are obtained from frequency-domain analysis and transformed into the time domain. Instantaneous responses are then evaluated directly through convolution-based force reconstruction, reducing the need for repeated regular-wave simulations. Weak nonlinear restoring effects are included by instantaneous wetted-surface pressure integration, and directional wave spectra are used to represent realistic sea states. The framework is validated against model-test measurements of an offshore supply vessel in long-crested beam irregular waves and full-scale measurements of a USV operating in real sea conditions. Predicted significant amplitudes, mean zero-crossing periods, standard deviations, and motion time histories agree well with measurements. The effect of directional-spectrum discretization is also examined. Results show that motion amplitudes are moderately sensitive to directional resolution, whereas motion periods are relatively insensitive. A 30 deg directional interval provides a practical balance between prediction accuracy and computational cost. The proposed framework offers an efficient tool for high-fidelity time-domain prediction of USV motions in realistic directional irregular seas.
