We consider a rigid-body ship's motion in four degrees of freedom to illustrate tracking control of a ship system. In this work, we show a desired trajectory for ship tracking as a nonlinear path. In a computation, 3 procedures of the Fundamental Equations of Constrained Motion (FECM) are used to investigate the control force in tracking the ship motions. The results are simulated in MATLAB to display the capability of a constraint-following controller applied from the FECM to ensure that a ship system can follow our prescribed constraint trajectory.Physics and AstronomyConference PaperSCOPUS10.1063/5.02093862-s2.0-8519439140815517616
