Can a Motion Reference Unit (MRU) be used for inclining tests?
Yes. An MRU provides high-resolution measurements of roll angles, which makes it an effective tool for inclining tests (stability verification / "krengeprøve"). Unlike traditional pendulums, an MRU can deliver accurate data even when the test is carried out at sea under less-than-ideal conditions. By filtering out wave-induced motions and recording precise responses to applied test weights, the MRU improves both accuracy and efficiency of the inclining test.
