System for Determining Dynamic Under Keel Clearance of Vessels Entering the Port of Swinoujscie (DRWPS)
Journal Title: TransNav, the International Journal on Marine Navigation and Safety of Sea Transportation - Year 2017, Vol 11, Issue 3
Abstract
The article presents a system for determining dynamic under keel clearance. In order to build a DRWPS system, a mixed model was created based on the analysis of math models. The system includes advisory software for defining the conditions for the entering of large LNG vessels in the context of under keel clearance and software was built to support the decision-making of operators who are responsible for introducing these vessels to the Port of Swinoujscie.

Arctic Shipping and Risks: Emergency Categories and Response Capacities
The sea ice in the Arctic has shrunk significantly in the last decades. The transport pattern has as a result partly changed with more traffic in remote areas. This change may influence on the risk pattern. The critical...
Experimental Study on the Application of UAV Drone to Prevent Maritime Pirates Attacks
In this paper, we present a concept of an application of UAV drones as a possible low‐cost device to avoid pirate attacks. Recent UAV drone can be operated in the range of more than 2km and transmit very clear images. Pi...
