This paper aims to present a novel approach to design a dynamic positioning system by using a dynamic model based-design approach. The proposed study has been performed to both develop and preliminarily test the control logic that should be implemented on a model scale vessel. Indeed, the proposed tool has been designed for a fully actuated tug vessel equipped with two azimuthal thrusters and one bow-thruster, emulated in behaviour with a dynamic simulator. Thanks to the model actuation, it was possible to design a unique, optimised allocation logic able to fulfil both open-loop and closed-loop commands, sufficiently proved and tuned before the installation onboard. Moreover, a thorough comparison between different design methods, static and dynamic performance evaluation has been carried out. Two different operational modes are tested, and the results are presented: joystick and station keeping.

This paper presents a Model-Based approach to develop UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) autopilot software. It employs Simulink to design the flight controller, Stateflow to implement control logic and Matlab coder to automatically generate embedded C code from the model developed. Software in the loop (SIL) and hardware in the loop (HIL) simulations are performed in the laboratory to validate the software developed. Flight trial cost and risks are minimized and the design cycles are greatly shortened. The feasibility and the effectiveness of the approach are verified through results from lab simulations and field trials.
