Coursematerial supplemented with instructor material.Software (online) / Labs: GHS, Rhino, ORCA 3D, Ship Stability Simulator, Shipyard tour,Principles of Sailing lab, overview of CFD for marine applications.Students must conduct an independent research project on a topic pertaining to navalarchitecture. The instructor gives several suggested topics to show the breadth of topics thatcould be selected. All students are required to submit their proposed topic and abstract to theinstructor for approval. Students could also work in pairs, however the requirements (depth ofresearch and length of paper) are increased accordingly. Students submit a draft and theinstructor

control a small group of roboticvehicles. Collective motion of groups can in general be described by Reynolds’ Rules whichinclude three main concerns: a) collision avoidance, b) velocity matching and c) flock centering [8]-[9].2. Problem DescriptionUnmanned surface vehicles can be modeled as in Figure 1 [3]-[7]. The course angle χ, headingangle  and sideslip angle  are defined as shown. The input r is applied at the rudder. The modelas used in this assignment is described in more detail in [3]-[5]. Figure 1. USV Model [3]-[7]To simplify the USV model for the assignment, one can assume no sideslip. This results in thefollowing relationships. 𝑥̇ = 𝑈cos(𝜓
