Abstract :
Modern aero-naval traction systems contain two or more propulsion elements. One of the main challenges consist steering control in case one or more propulsion elements fails. The paper presents solution of real time (re)balancing a parallel control structure and maintaining the ratio between two engines groups. Applicability is proved on a control structure of the ratio where using two groups of propellers, a situation encountered to the modern ships.
