***General Introduction***

This dataset contains data (figures) collected as part of Chapter 5 in the doctoral thesis of Mr. Nikos Kougiatsos, M.Sc. in Delft University of Technology, 2020-2024.

It is being made public both to act as supplementary data for publications of N. Kougiatsos and in order for other researchers to use this data in their own work.



This data is part of the project READINESS with project number TWM.BL.019.002 of the research programme ”Topsector Water \& Maritime: the Blue route” which is partly financed by the Dutch Research Council (NWO).

***Purpose of the collection***

The purpose of these simulation was to showcase and analyse the performance of a resilient control method for marine vessels.

***Description of the data structure***

The data included in this repository has the form of .fig, .mat and .png files. A detailed description follows next.



results.mat : This mat file contains the recorded simulation results based on the proposed methodology in Chapter 5
Chapter_5_Figure_X_desc.fig: These files hold the plotting information corresponding to Figure 'X' of Chapter 5 in .fig format. The contents of each Figure are briefly described by 'desc'.
Chapter_5_Figure_X_desc.png: These files hold the plotting information corresponding to Figure 'X' of Chapter 5 in .png format. The contents of each Figure are briefly described by 'desc'.
plots_control_stability.m: The file used to generate the plots in MATLAB after loading results.mat


***Dependencies***

To read the simulation results and create the plots, I used MATLAB R2021b. However, I believe that also other versions of MATLAB may work as well.

*** How to use the dataset***

1. Open MATLAB R2021b or newer
2. load(results.mat)
3. You can now explore the saved data
4. You can generate the plots yourself using plots_control_stability.m
5. Otherwise, double click on the .fig files. They will open in MATLAB automatically. These are the plots of the thesis.
6. Enjoy :)
