  3. 17. High Performance Multi-Objective Voyage Planning Using Local Gradient-Free Methods

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för beräkningsvetenskap

    Author : Niklas Fejes; [2016]
    Keywords : optimization; voyage planning; local gradient-free methods; nelder-mead simplex; subplex;

    Abstract : A number of parallel gradient-free local optimization methods are investigated in application to problems of voyage planning for maritime ships. Two optimization algorithms are investigated, a parallel version of the Nelder-Mead Simplex method and the Subplex method with Nelder-Mead Simplex as its inner solver. READ MORE

  4. 18. On-ship Power Management and Voyage Planning Interaction

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för systemteknik

    Author : Mikael Frisk; [2015]
    Keywords : Optimisation; power management; diesel engines; all-electric ship; voyage planning; weather routing; fuel efficiency; energy storage;

    Abstract : Voyage planning methods have advanced significantly in recent years to take advantage of the increasingly available computing power. With the aid of detailed weather predictions it is now possible to decide a route that is optimized with respect to some criterion. READ MORE

  5. 19. vemod(en) : -A tribute to the perfect error.

    University essay from Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Maja Dixdotter; [2015]
    Keywords : perfection; twisted; control;

    Abstract : In this collection I have explored the paradox of perfection. The collection is an epic tribute to my prior self and discovers how the unperfect can be transformed to something, perceived, perfect. I flirt with my past obsessions in finding mathematically measured legs, exact tailored arms and perfectly fitted stockings. READ MORE

  6. 20. Multi-Objective Optimization of Voyage Plans for Ships

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Waqar Hameed; [2015]
    Keywords : voyage plan; Pareto sample; direction method; multi-objective optimization; grid search; DIRECT; Lipschitzian optimization; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In this thesis two methods are investigated to solve a multi-objective optimization problem for voyage planning. The first method, grid search, is a brute force search in a three-dimensional graph while the other uses the Lipschitzian algorithm DIRECT to do a continuous search along a nominal route. READ MORE
