Study on Travel Path Planning of Deep-Sea Nodule Collector During Collection Operation

Haiyang Kaifa yu guanli
Polymetallic nodules are a current focus in the development of deep-sea mineral resources. The mining process requires nodule collectors to travel over large areas on the seafloor for nodule harvesting, and the travel path has significant impacts on both
