VESSEL STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM USING MACHINE LEARNING TO OPTIMIZE RESOURCE USAGE
A stability controller includes a machine learning engine that outputs stabilizer settings to several on-board stabilizer systems of a vessel based on various inputs. The machine learning engine is first trained based on human selections of stabilizer system settings, and then, once suitably trained, the stability controller can be used to optimize the use and operation of the stabilizer systems as conditions change, based on a quantity or stability quality that the vessel operator desires to optimize.

Stringer and system for mounting equipment to a vessel's hull
A system for mounting equipment to a vessel's hull is disclosed. The system comprises a first stringer and a second stringer, where each stringer is attachable to the inside of the vessel's hull. The system also includes a layer of adhesive attaching both stringers to the inside of the vessels hull. Both stringers have a top cap for attaching equipment. Additionally, each stringer has a first vertical side wall connected to a first end of the top cap, a second vertical side wall connected to a second end of the top cap, and two flanged portions. A first flanged portion connects to a lower end of the first vertical side wall, and a second flanged portion connects to a lower end of the second vertical side wall. The system has an open side portion at the bottom end of both stringers.
