Using MOTAN to measure global accelerations of the CCGS Terry Fox during bergy bit trials.
The whole-ship motions of the CCGS TERRY FOX were measured for more than 150 controlled impacts with small pieces of glacial ice, or bergy bits. The impacts were conducted at speeds up to 14 kt. This paper uses global ship accelerations measured during three different impact events to demonstrate pr...

Summary: | The whole-ship motions of the CCGS TERRY FOX were measured for more than 150 controlled impacts with small pieces of glacial ice, or bergy bits. The impacts were conducted at speeds up to 14 kt. This paper uses global ship accelerations measured during three different impact events to demonstrate proof of concept for an inertial measurement system called MOTAN. NRC publication: Yes |
