Ship Routing Through Altimetry-Derived Ocean Currents
We investigate the potential of strategic ship routing through dynamic currents derived from satellite altimetry by simulating current patterns in a dynamic Gulf Stream region to reflect present and improved current estimation capabilities, using dynamic programming to determine approximately 3-day routes through the current patterns, and estimating relative fuel savings that would be obtained ...
متن کاملSimulated annealing for optimal ship routing
A simulated annealing based algorithm is presented for the determination of optimal ship routes through the minimization of a cost function. This cost function is a weighted sum of the time of voyage and the voyage comfort (safety is taken into account too). The latter is dependent on both the wind speed and direction and the wave height and direction. The algorithm first discretizes an initial...
متن کاملOperational Optimal Ship Routing Using a Hybrid Parallel Genetic Algorithm
Optimization of ship routing depends on several parameters, like ship and cargo characteristics, environmental factors, topography, international navigation rules, crew comfort etc. The complex nature of the problem leads to oversimplifications in analytical techniques, while stochastic methods like simulated annealing can be both time consuming and sensitive to local minima. In this work, a hy...
متن کاملStochastic Ship Fleet Routing with Inventory Limits
This thesis describes a stochastic ship routing problem with inventory management. The problem involves finding a set of least costs routes for a fleet of ships transporting a single commodity when the demand for the commodity is uncertain. Storage at consumption and supply ports is limited and inventory levels are monitored in the model. Consumer demands are at a constant rate within each time...
متن کاملOcean Clutter Modeling for Ship Detection
This work addresses the problem of covariance matrix estimation for ocean clutter modeling. For ship detection based on polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) imagery and constant false alarm rate (CFAR) detectors, accurate ocean clutter modeling is essential. The covariance matrix provides all the polarimetric information of the ocean clutter and its estimate is always involved in PolS...
