Science in pictures To the point: Planning inland vessel operations in large seaports using a two-phase approach "Inland vessels are often used to transport containers between large sea ports and the hinterland. Each time a vessel arrives in such a port, it typically visits several terminals to load and unload containers. In the Port of Rotterdam, the largest port in Europe, there are 77,000 inland vessels that have moored in the port in 2014 for transporting cargo. With the significant growth of containerize..." [More...] S. Li, R.R. Negenborn, G. Lodewijks. Planning inland vessel operations in large seaports using a two-phase approach.

Current efforts for improving this have yielded limited results, though, as the transportation product structure limits the flexibility of transportation providers to optimise network logistics. Synchromodality aims to overc..." [More...] B. van Riessen, R.R. Negenborn, R. Dekker.

The cooperative planning is formulated as a cooperative model predictive container flow control problem, and solved with three Distributed Model Predictive Flow Control (DMPFC) approaches: the parallel and serial Augment..." [More...] L.

Currently, these structures are often operated purely locally, without coordination on actions between different structures. Auto..." [More...] H. van Ekeren, R.R. Negenborn, P.J. van Overloop, B.

This paper proposes a novel cost-effective robust distributed control approach for waterborne AGVs. The overall system is uncertain and has independent subsystem dynamics but coupling objectives and state constraints. Waterborne AGVs determine their actions in a parallel way, whil..." [More...] H.
