In this paper, an improved three-dimensional dynamic programming algorithm for ship route
optimization is proposed. As a consequence of the weather conditions and constraints, the …

Based on the original FOPSO (fractional order particle swarm optimization) algorithm, this
paper improves new coefficients of the fractional order velocity update formula to avoid …

Energy storage system (ESS) is a critical component in all-electric ships (AESs). However,
an improper size and management of ESS will deteriorate the technical and economic …

With the extensive electrification introduced into the shipboard power systems, the
navigation routine has become more important in an electric propulsion and solar power …

Restrictions on greenhouse gas emissions and the existence of developing countries has
diversified ship routes and ship types, making the ship operation more complex. Many types …

Ships are exposed to added resistance caused by external environmental conditions, as
well as the resistance due to the ship's form and the molecular features of the water. Since …

Nearshore wave prediction is an area of research which still demands continuous
developments and the accuracy of wave models in the nearshore regions, is known to be …

In this study, a new route planning model is proposed to help ocean-going ships avoid
dangerous weather conditions and ensure safe ship navigation. First, we integrate ocean …

The increasing demand for efficient, safe, and economic operation of ships has drawn
attention to practical maneuvering behaviors for developing autonomous ships. Actual …
