Sea states, such as waves, tidal currents, and wind are important factors for safe and
economic ship navigation. In previous papers of Xia and Shiotani, 2006a, Xia and Shiotani …

This paper provides a conceptual architecture for a cloud based platform design, that
implements continuously data storage and analysis services for large maritime ships, with …

This paper describes the results of statistical analysis of data collected from many vessels to
discuss the problems which may occur during the data collection onboard, and the role of …

Traditional manual berthing efficiency limits the port throughput, so this paper proposed
ITCA (Intelligent Tracking Control Algorithm), which can track reference paths well even in …

For safe navigation, high-resolution information on tidal current, wind and waves is very
important. In coastal areas in particular, the weather and ocean situation change …

For safe navigation, high-resolution information on wind and waves is very important. In
coastal areas in particular, the weather and ocean situation changes dramatically in time …

Winds, tidal currents, and waves are the most important factors in ocean engineering. For a
running ship in coastal waters, the tidal current, the winds over the sea and the waves in a …

The use of an Analogical Simulator in shiphandling-manoeuvre tests (SIAMA) in waterways
constitutes a useful tool for providing improvements in port design and manoeuvring rules …

This paper deals with numerical estimations of the ocean surface wind and tidal currents in a
bay. Such estimates are very important because the wind and tidal current react to …

Waves, ocean currents, and sea surface winds are important factors for safe and economic
ship navigation, especially in coastal areas where ship density is relatively higher and the …
