  2. 1. Energy Performance and Manoeuvring Modelling of Inland Waterway Vessels

    Author : Chengqian Zhang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; confinement effect; inland waterways; manoeuvring prediction; autonomous vessels; ship hydrodynamics; energy efficiency;

    Abstract : Inland waterway transport has significant potential to reduce greenhouse emissions and road congestion safely and sustainably. To construct competitive, intelligent waterborne transport networks, the use of advanced vessels with clean energy and a high degree of automation or autonomy is an ideal solution for next-generation transport.

  4. 2. Efficient hull design for ice conditions in inland waterways

    Author : Meng Zhang; Karl Garme; Magnus Burman; Pentti Kujala; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Inland waterway ship; ice conditions; ice properties; ice-hull interaction; ice resistance; impact load; numerical method; operation time window; lightweight design; composites and sandwich structure; Farkostteknik; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering;

    Abstract : With increasing interest in utilizing the inland waterways (IWW) in European countries, the design of IWW vessels gains attention both from a transport efficiency and an emission control point of view. Usually, IWW ships are designed without ice operation concerns and are structurally weaker than ships designed according to ice-class notifications from the classification societies. READ MORE
