The coordinates of the points a, b, A, n , B n in a fixed coordinate system continuously determine with high accuracy (+/- 1.0 m). Using the coordinates of points a(X 0A , Y 0A), (X 0B , Y 0B ) moored vessel and the vessel partner-A n (X 0An , Y 0An ), B n (X 0Bn , Y 0Bn ) in a fixed coordinate system, the coordinates of the same points in the moving coordinate systems related moored vessel And A(X A , Y, A ), B n (X , Y B ) vessel and the partner A n (An X , Y'an ), B n (X Bn , Y Bn ), the coordinates of the centers of gravity (CG) moored vessel in the associated mobile coordinate system G (X, G , Y G ) vessel and the partner in the associated mobile coordinate system G n (X 0Gn , Y 0Gn ) (figure 3), and spacing diametrically planes (DP) moored vessels h 0 and the distance between CG moored vessels m, expect:

- coordinates of the center of gravity of a moored vessel G(X 0G , Y 0G ) in a fixed coordinate system;

- coordinates of the center of gravity of the ship-partner G n (X 0Gn , Y 0Gn ) in a fixed coordinate system;

- coordinates of points

situated on the perpendicular DP vessel partner, restored in point A n and B n ;

- coordinates of the projection CT ship-partner

in a fixed coordinate system on the trajectory of convergence in the final stage of mooring parallel to the DP vessel partner through points

A n ' and B n ' ;

- coordinates of the second set point P 2 (X 0P2 , Y 0P2 ) in a fixed coordinate system;

- the current value of the stopping distance moored vessel should be calculated using the equations of its movement dυ/dS=f ( * , C 1 C 2 C 3 ,...)

where

* - the current speed moored vessel;

S is the path;

C 1 , C 2 , C 3 ,... are the current values of the parameters of the equations of motion of a moored vessel, depending on the current values parameters describing the current state of the loading of the ship and the external environment (the displacement of a moored vessel; landing options corps; direction and speed of wind parameters excitement; direction and speed of currents; the depth of water area at the perform mooring operations). The actual length of a brake way moored vessel in the process of rapprochement with the vessel-a partner is determined by integration of the equations of motion of a moored vessel within * = * n up * = * n , i.e.

S T = ∫ * n * n f ( * , C 1 , C 2 , C 3 , ... ) d

where * n - initial speed of a moored vessel; * n - speed vessel partner.

While the current values of the parameters of the equations of motion of a moored vessel With 1 , 2 , 3 ,... in the implementation process of mooring operations continuously identify, using the method described in [5], [6].

- coordinates of the first given point P (X 0P1 , Y 0P1 ) in a fixed coordinate system.

Knowing the coordinates of the first set point and CG coordinate moored vessel determine the current position of a trajectory of convergence, passing through the first set point P (X 0P1 Y 0P1 ) and CT moored vessel G(X 0G , Y 0G ). After that define the transverse displacement of points A and B in the specified manner trajectory of convergence.

Continuously determined the coordinates of points A and B, A n and B n continually calculate the CG coordinate moored vessel G, and together with continuously determined by the current value of the stopping distance S T - and first given point P 1 ; and transverse displacement d A and d B A and B points moored vessel from the current position of a trajectory of convergence.

Transverse displacement produce a signal to the deviation of the steering body, for example steering moored vessel by law:

?=- k A x A d +k B x d B ,

where k A , k, B - gain on pepper offsets the bow and stern points moored vessel from the current position of a trajectory of convergence.

Thus, moored vessel moves along the line of GP 1 in the direction of the point P 1 .

At the time of exit moored vessel in the first set point, which corresponds to the coordinates equality CT moored vessel G(X 0G , Y 0G ) and the coordinates of the first given point P (X 0G , Y 0P1 ) (X 0G =X R ; Y 0G =Y 0P1 ), it goes to the rapprochement with the second set point P 2 , with the current position of a trajectory approximation corresponds to the position of the line passing through points

The moment of release of the vessel moored to the second set point P 2 corresponds to the coordinates equality CT moored vessel and the second set point, that is, X 0G =X 0P2 , Y 0G =Y 0P2 .

However, in this way, ship's control, performing mooring operation the vessel partner, there is a certain disadvantage of not allowing safe closer moored vessel with the vessel-partner, if it is to drift. The direction of the vector of linear speed drifting vessel * ' is determined by the angle of drift β' (the angle between diametrically line of the vessel and a vector of linear speed of the vessel) (figure 4), the amount of β' can reach high values in the range from 0 to 180° [1], [3], [4]. Thus, at the moment of release of the vessel moored alongside a partner lying in the drift velocity moored vessel and must be equal to the longitudinal component of the linear velocity swartout vessel

* x ' , i.e. * = * x ' .

The technical result, the attainment of which are directed by the invention consists in observing traffic conditions moored vessel at the final stage of mooring at a rate equal to the longitudinal component of the linear velocity of the ship-partner.

- longitudinal component of the linear velocity swartout vessel.

While the current values of the parameters of the equations of motion of a moored vessel C 1 , C 2 , 3 ,... in the implementation process of mooring operations continuously identify, using the method described in [5], [6];

Knowing the coordinates of the first set point and CG coordinate moored vessel determine the current position of a trajectory of convergence, passing through the first set point P = (X 0P1 , Y 0P1 ) and CT moored vessel G(X 0G , Y 0G ). After that define the transverse displacement of points A and B in the specified manner trajectory of convergence.

?=- k A x A d +k B x d B ,

where k A , k, B - gain on pepper offsets the bow and stern points moored vessel from the current position of a trajectory of convergence.

Thus, moored vessel moves along the line of GP 1 in the direction of the point P 1 .

?=- k A x A d +k B x d B k A , k, B - gain on pepper offsets the bow and stern points moored vessel from the current position of a trajectory of convergence.

Thus, moored vessel moves along the line of GP 1 in the direction of the point P 1 .

At the time of exit moored vessel in the first set point, which corresponds to the coordinates equality CT moored vessel G(X 0G , Y 0G ) and the coordinates of the first given point P (X 0G , Y 0P1 ) (X 0G =X 0P1 ; Y 0G =Y 0P1 ), it goes to the rapprochement with the second set point P 2 , with the current position of a trajectory approximation corresponds to the position of the line passing through points

A n ' ( X A ' n , Y A ' n ) and B n ' ( X B ' n , Y B ' n )

which coordinates are calculated continuously. The current coordinates of the second set point P 2 (X 0P2 , Y 0P2 )lying on line

A n ' B n '

calculate continuously.

Continuously determined the coordinates of points A and B, A n and B n continually calculate: the coordinates of the points

A n ' and B n '

, CT moored vessel G and CT vessel partner lying in the drift n G , a second set point P 2 in a fixed coordinate system, as well as transverse displacement d A and d B A and B points moored vessel from the current position of a trajectory of convergence, which is the line

A n ' B n ' .

Transverse displacement produce a signal to the deviation of the steering body, for example steering moored vessel by the known law. Thus, moored vessel is moving at a point P on line 2

A n ' B n ' .

The time when a moored vessel in the second set point P 2 corresponds coordinates equality CT moored vessel and the second set point, that is, X 0G =X R , Y 0G =Y 0P2 .

As a result of application of the present invention is an opportunity to obtain a technical result - compliance with security perform mooring operations to the Board of the partner lying in the drift.
