Modeling and Simulation of Draghead on Trailing Suction Hopper Dredger

In this paper, particle filter algorithm is applied to the trailing suction hopper dredger for analyzing drag head parameters. A particle filter is designed in the process of trailing suction hopper dredger for predicting the drag head density. Using the filtering results and measured results to evaluate its performance based on multiple sets of measured data, and the results performed well. The filter has certain help for the development of trailing suction hopper dredger decision support system.
