  1. 1. 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

  3. 2. Influence of current harmonics on the degradation of the catalyst coated membrane in PEMFC

    University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

    Author : Evelina Ahlén Norberg; [2022]
    Keywords : Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell; Ripple Current; Current Harmonics; Degradation; Marine transportation; Polymerelektrolytbränslecell; Rippelström; Strömoscillation; Åldring; Sjötransport;

    Abstract : Sjöfarten är idag dominerad av förbränningsmotorer som är beroende av fossila drivmedel. Elektrifiering är en av huvudstrategierna för att möjliggöra fossilfri energiförsörjning inom internationell sjöfart. READ MORE

  4. 3. Autonomous Docking of an Unmanned Surface Vehicle using Model Predictive Control

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Sofia Kockum; [2022]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Autonomous docking of marine vessels presents challenges different from the ones faced when travelling at open sea or in an archipelago. External disturbances due to the varying environment and accurate positioning at low speed are examples of these kinds of challenges. READ MORE

  5. 4. Development and study of noise generation from propellers

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Anton Anton Dunström; Fredrik Skjernov; [2022]
    Keywords : Silent propellers; Propeller development; Noise generation; Skew angle; Blade Area Ratio; Openprop; NATO STANAG no. 1136; Swedish defense and Research Agency FOI ; James Fisher Defense.; Tysta propellrar; Propellerutveckling; Ljudskapande; Skevningsvinkel; Bladtäckningsarea; Openprop; NATO STANAG no. 1136; FOI; James Fisher Defense.;

    Abstract : Noise generation from underwater activities propagates into the marine environment.For marine vessels the propulsion system generates the most noise during itsoperations. Naval vessels that want to operate without being detected want to controlthe sound generating properties of the vessel. READ MORE

  6. 5. Model on degradation of PEM fuel cells in marine applications

    University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

    Author : Erik Östling; [2021]
    Keywords : Proton exchange membrane fuel cell PEMFC ; marine applications; durability; lifetime prediction; empirical model; PEM bränsleceller; marina tillämpningar; hållbarhet; livslängdsberäkning; empirisk modell;

    Abstract : Sjöfarten står för 3 % av världens totala växthusgaser och är idag högst beroende av fossila bränslen. Ett alternativ för att gå över till en fossilfri flotta är användning av bränsleceller och vätgas som drivmedel. READ MORE
