  1. 1. Indirect System Identification for Unknown Input Problems : With Applications to Ships

    Author : Jonas Linder; Martin Enqvist; Fredrik Gustafsson; Alexandre Sanfelice Bazanella; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; System identification; Model structure; Unknown inputs; Indirect input measurements; Physical models; Instrumental variable; Closed loop; Graybox model; Identifiability; Ship; Marine vessel; Operational safety; Inertial measurement unit;

    Abstract : System identification is used in engineering sciences to build mathematical models from data. A common issue in system identification problems is that the true inputs to the system are not fully known. In this thesis, existing approaches to unknown input problems are classified and some of their properties are analyzed. READ MORE

  2. 2. Drift-Type Waves in Rotating Tokamak Plasma

    Author : Elina Asp; Vladimir Pavlenko; Hans Nordman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Space and plasma physics; fusion; plasma; tokamak; rotation; drift; ship; ITG; TE; Landau; Te Ti; hot-electron; confinement; stiffness; Weiland; Rymd- och plasmafysik; Space physics; Rymdfysik; Space and Plasma Physics; rymd- och plasmafysik;

    Abstract : The concept of energy production through the fusion of two light nuclei has been studied since the 1950’s. One of the major problems that fusion scientists have encountered is the confinement of the hot ionised gas, i.e. the plasma, in which the fusion process takes place. READ MORE

  3. 3. Coordinated Routing : applications in location and inventory management

    Author : Henrik Andersson; Peter Värbrand; Marielle Christiansen; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Optimization; coordinated routing; inventory routing; ship routing; location; decision support; mathematical modeling; Optimization; systems theory; Optimeringslära; systemteori;

    Abstract : Almost everywhere, routing plays an important role in everyday life. This thesis consists of three parts, each studying different applications where routing decisions are coordinated with other decisions. A common denominator in all applications is that an intelligent utilization of a fleet of vehicles is crucial for the performance of the system. READ MORE

  4. 4. Reducing ships' fuel consumption and emissions by learning from data

    Author : Fredrik Ahlgren; Marcus Thern; Maria E. Mondejar; Cecilia Österman; Ann-Charlotte Larsson; Erik Dahlquist; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; shipping; energy efficiency; orc; machine learning; emissions; Sjöfartsvetenskap; Maritime Science;

    Abstract : In the context of reducing both greenhouse gases and hazardous emissions, the shipping sector faces a major challenge as it is currently responsible for 11% of the transport sector’s anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. Even as emissions reductions are needed, the demand for the transport sector rises exponentially every year. READ MORE

  5. 5. 3-D Nautical Charts and Safe Navigation

    Author : Thomas Porathe; Rune Pettersson; Åke Sivertun; Jan-Terje Bjørke; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; 3-D nautical charts; Mental rotations; safety at sea; vehicle navigation; 3D-sjökort; mentala rotationer; sjösäkerhet; fordonsnavigering; Information technology; Informationsteknik; Innovation och design;

    Abstract : In spite of all electronic navigation devices on a modern ship bridge, navigators still lose their orientation. Reasons for this might be excessive cognitive workload caused by too many instruments to read and compile, navigation information that is displayed in a cognitively demanding way, short decision times due to high speed or fatigue due to minimum manning and long work hours.
