Berthing Trajectory Tracking of Underactuated Surface Vehicle Based on NMPC and Position Estimation
IEEE AccessIn order to realize waypoint-based automatic berthing alongside or astern, a generation algorithm of dynamic virtual ships is proposed to guide the underactuated surface vehicle (USV). In this paper, a nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) problem is

Strategies for dynamic appointment making by container terminals [PDF]
, 2012 We consider a container terminal that has to make appointments with barges dynamically, in real-time, and partly automatic. The challenge for the terminal is to make appointments with only limited knowledge about future arriving barges, and in the view ...

A Novel COLREGs-Based Automatic Berthing Scheme for Autonomous Surface Vessels
Journal of Marine Science and EngineeringThis paper tackles the highly challenging problem of automatic berthing for autonomous surface vessels (ASVs), encompassing trajectory planning, trajectory tracking, and collision avoidance. Firstly, a novel A* algorithm integrated with a quasi-uniform B-
