Enhanced control for wave and water testing

MARIN is a world leader when it comes to marine research and wanted to upgrade some of the control systems to improve performance and efficiency, particularly for the Active Reflection Compensation. VHT was able to provide the ideal solution.

Software knowledge

In addition to hardware, VHT also provides innovative software solutions. MARIN was looking to improve its Active Reflection Compensation, as this important system can detect when there are disturbances in the waves due to reflections and compensate for the differences. Effective Active Reflection Compensation ensures that the wave quality remains consistent for a longer period. It is also possible to actively stretch the water between two tests which means the next test can be carried out with minimal delay.

More accurate research

If there are issues with the wave quality, the problems can be huge. Full size ships can’t be tested, so they are scaled down to fit in the facility. Any variance on a smaller scale is multiplied in the real world, so if you want to be able to accurately predict how a ship will behave, the waves in the test facility need to be of the highest possible quality.
