  4. 3. Real-time Optimal Braking for Marine Vessels with Rotating Thrusters

    University essay from KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

    Author : Sigurlaug Rún Jónsdóttir; [2022]
    Keywords : Nonlinear optimization; nonlinear optimal control; numerical optimal control; real-time solution; optimal braking; receding horizon; modeling; ship model; propeller forces; rudder forces; direct multiple shooting method; discretization;

    Abstract : Collision avoidance is an essential component of autonomous shipping. As ships begin to advance towards autonomy, developing an advisory system is one of the first steps. An advisory system with a strong collision avoidance component can help the crew act more quickly and accurately in dangerous situations. READ MORE

  5. 4. Influenza A in Swedish harbour seals (Phoca vitulina) : a serological study

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

    Author : Johanna Johnsson; [2022]
    Keywords : IAV; influenza A; harbour seals; H10N7; marine mammals; Phoca vitulina; serology; Sweden; virus;

    Abstract : Evidence of infection with influenza A has been documented in several different marine mammals. However, large outbreaks with mass mortalities have only been seen in harbour seals. In 2014, the first outbreak with influenza A virus (IAV) in harbour seals in Europe was reported. READ MORE

  6. 5. Diatoms from the late Holocene of the western Chukchi Sea, Arctic Ocean: environmental signals and palaeoceanography

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för geologiska vetenskaper
