This paper presents a literature survey on the fleet size and mix problem in maritime transportation. Fluctuations in the shipping market and frequent mismatches between fleet capacities and demands highlight the relevance of the problem and call for more accurate decision support. After analyzing the...
...synchronization of VIV loads and structural responses with a set of empirical parameters generalized from model tests. Combining this time domain hydrodynamic load model with a non-linear finite element structural model makes it possible to account for structural non-linearities and time-varying flow. A...
Current state-of-the-art technologies and operations for sea-based aquaculture farms are highly dependent on manual labour and close human interaction with the process and cage structures, where the need for personnel to operate on fish farms, including highly specialised divers, is a risk factor for...
...investigated the UV and mechanical degradation of common MPFs: Polyester (PET), polyamide (PA) and polyacrylonitrile (PAN). Additionally, wool was included in some studies as a natural reference fibre. The characterisation of organic and inorganic additive content in the MPFs and wool, together with...
Contingency and Response (OSCAR) model, which have significantly improved th emodelling of oil spills in cold and ice-covered waters. In addition to transport of surface oil with ice velocity from an external ice model, OSCAR can now calculate vertical mixing from a combination of velocity shear and stratification...
...autonomous ship interacts with conventional ships, as the crew on other ships can and will exert unexpected behaviour that cannot be easily modelled. This paper analyses the problem of information acquisition, situational assessment and how to predict other ship's actions for autonomous ships that need to interact...
This paper presents the results of our investigation into the simulation and detection of cyber attacks in digital substations. Our study focuses on comparing multiple machine learning algorithms for detecting replay attacks and false data injections. The results of our study show that the best model...
