The propulsion system dynamics is a key aspect of the overall behavior of a ship, for safety as well for commercial aspects. However, despite its great importance, numerical methodologies for deep investigations about the marine propulsion dynamics are not widely covered in public literature. This paper presents an overview of the simulation methodologies, developed by the authors in recent years with the support of colleagues and technicians from Genoa University and marine industry, to design marine propulsion plants and their control systems. The aim is to point out the importance of the dynamic aspects that cannot be neglected when studying ship propulsion matters.

Abstract
The propulsion system dynamics is a key aspect of the overall behavior of a ship, for safety as well for commercial aspects. However, despite its great importance, numerical methodologies for deep investigations about the marine propulsion dynamics are not widely covered in public literature. This paper presents an overview of the simulation methodologies, developed by the authors in recent years with the support of colleagues and technicians from Genoa University and marine industry, to design marine propulsion plants and their control systems. The aim is to point out the importance of the dynamic aspects that cannot be neglected when studying ship propulsion matters.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
