Ship Stability
OMC needs precise vessel stability information to accurately model ship motions. However, collecting the correct data from ships can be challenging. To address this, we aimed to develop a machine learning model that can estimate stability parameters based on a vessel’s dimensions and basic load state information. This model uses a historical dataset of load state information from various types of vessels, including bulk carriers, tankers, and container ships.
