11. Model Design for Further Spray Deflector investigation
University essay from KTH/Marina systemAbstract : Planing hull is one solution to break the speed barrier of conventional hull, but as the boat reaches a high speed, massive whisker spray will be developed and attached to the hull, which causes a notable resistance increase. A Swedish company Peterstep invented an innovative spray deflector that can deflect the spray backwards and harvest kinetic energy from the spray. READ MORE

13. Development of a 2D Optimal Path Simulation for Ship-to-Shore Cranes : Safe Trajectories within Interchangeable Obstalce Environments
University essay from Linköpings universitet/FordonssystemAbstract : The most advanced ports as of writing of this report are at least somewhat autonomous. Whether discussing the transporters between crane and stack (temporary storage) or cranes, the ports are shifting into a completely autonomous system. This ultimate goal presents a challenge in regards to unloading and loading cargo ships in the harbour. READ MORE

14. Learning model predictive control with application to quadcopter trajectory tracking
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : In thiswork, we develop a learning model predictive controller (LMPC) for energy-optimaltracking of periodic trajectories for a quadcopter. The main advantage of this controller isthat it is “reference-free”. Moreover, the controller is able to improve its performance overiterations by incorporating learning from the previous iterations.

15. Performance Prediction Program for Wind-Assisted Cargo Ships
University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)Abstract : Due to the accelerating need for decarbonization in the shipping sector, wind-assisted cargo shipsare able to play a key role in achieving the IMO 2050 targets on reducing the total annual GHGemissions from international shipping by at least 50%. The aim of this Master’s Thesis project is todevelop a Performance Prediction Program for wind-assisted cargo ships to contribute knowledgeon the performance of this technology. READ MORE
