Determination of the Tankers' Drift During STS Operation - Simulation Study [PDF]

open access: yesTransNav, 2016
The safety of the tankers during the Ship-to-Ship operations carried out in shallow water close to port limit is influenced by many factors. Based on the experience of ship crew involved in STS operation it was found that area for such operation and ...

The Use of Pivot Point in Ship Handling for Safer and More Accurate Ship Manoeuvring [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The size of ships has increased notably over recent decades. The size of harbours and ports has however not grown in proportion. As a result ship manoeuvring in harbours and ports has become more problematic, and more of an art than a science.

The influence of alcohol (0.5‰) on the control and manoeuvring level of driving behaviour, finding measures to assess driving impairment: A simulator study

open access: yesTransportation Research Part F: Traffic Psychology and Behaviour, 2020
Objective The influence of psychoactive substances on driving performance and traffic safety has been extensively studied. Research on the influence of alcohol at the control level of behaviour (i.e. automated processes) has been well established and has

IV Thrombolysis Facilitates Interventional Reperfusion in Non‐Cardioembolic but Not Cardioembolic Stroke

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) before thrombectomy for ischemic stroke may alter clot structure and procedural performance. We investigated how IVT relates to thrombectomy metrics across stroke etiologies. Methods We performed a time‐to‐event analysis of consecutive patients with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (acLVO ...

Decoupled Hydrodynamic Models and Their Outdoor Identification for an Unmanned Inland Cargo Vessel with Embedded Fully Rotatable Thrusters

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Expanding the automation level of the freshly introduced fleet of self-propelled Watertruck+ barges, which house fully-rotatable embedded thrusters, might increase their ability to compete with their less sustainable but dominating road-based ...

From Manoeuvre Assistance to Manoeuvre Automation

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2019
Abstract One of the greatest challenges in shipping automation is the automatic manoeuvring in areas with high safety standards which are executed today exclusively by nautical officers with appropriate expertise. Precise manoeuvre plans and suitable control solutions are missing because the human operators act according their mental ...

Uncertainty analysis of the hydrodynamic coefficients estimation of a nonlinear manoeuvring model based on planar motion mechanism tests

open access: yesOcean Engineering, 2019
Uncertainty analysis of the identified hydrodynamic coefficients of a nonlinear manoeuvring model is presented in this paper. The classical parameter estimation method, Least Square, is briefly introduced, and the uncertainty of the hydrodynamic ...

Manoeuvring-based actuation evaluation of an AUV with control surfaces and through-body thrusters

open access: yes, 2020
For an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV), control surfaces are usually used for high-speed manoeuvres, while at low speed the AUV relies upon through-body thrusters for manoeuvring.

Clinical Practice Guideline for Evaluation and Management of Peripheral Nervous System Manifestations in Sjögren's Disease

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Sjögren's disease is an autoimmune disorder that can impact multiple organ systems, including the peripheral nervous system (PNS). PNS manifestations, which can exist concurrently, include mononeuropathies, polyneuropathies, and autonomic nervous system neuropathies.

Meta‐Rod Mechanical Metamaterials With Programmable Reconfiguration

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Existing mechanical metamaterials achieve programmable large deformations in planar square or cubic configurations, restricted by required complex boundary conditions. This research proposes a 1D metamaterial, Meta‐rod, with linear, bending, twisting, area, and volume deformation modes.
