Research on High-Speed Catamaran Motion Reduction with Semi-Active Control of Flexible Pontoon

A high-speed catamaran with a suspension system and flexible pontoons to reduce motion is proposed, and the vertical motion characteristics of the vessel are investigated. The results demonstrate that altering the stiffness of the flexible pontoon can significantly alter the motion characteristics o...
