"Autonomous Surface Vessels (ASVs) have been developed for more than 20 years. Many ASV projects have been successfully realized, and as many are still under development. In literature there is a lack in research about different applications and suitable environments for the deployment of ASV. In our previous paper [44], we introduced the emerging concept of autonomous vessels. A multi-layer multi-..." [More...]
"In this paper, a control methodology is proposed to address the problem of energy management in hybrid ships in the presence of disturbances applied by the surrounding environment and taking the uncertainties within the ship model into account. Nonlinear Robust Tube-Based Model Predictive Control (NRTB-MPC) is adopted to control the ship speed and calculate the demanded energy for propelling the s..." [More...]
"The increase of international freight commerce is creating pressure on the existing transport network. Cooperation between the different transport parties (e.g., terminal managers, forwarders and transport providers) is required to increase the network throughput using the same infrastructure. The intermodal hubs are locations where cargo is stored and can switch transport modality while approachi..." [More...]
