Evaluating marine traffic safety at channels
Accident Analysis & Prevention, 1990An approach for measuring effects of policy schemes for improving marine traffic safety at channels is presented. Operational models involving traffic, channel, and ship characteristics are provided, and both collision and channel deviation risks of actual channels are quantified using them.

Marine Traffic Engineering: An Introduction to Marine Traffic Engineering
Journal of Navigation, 1972The principal purposes of this introductory paper are to identify and describe the main aspects of marine traffic engineering, and to suggest ways in which traffic engineering principles and methods developed for land and air transport systems may be applied to marine problems.

Journal of Navigation, 1982
Many nations are debating the implementation of vessel traffic services (VTS) and it is envisaged that some regulation of the movement of marine traffic may soon be imposed. It is highly desirable that prior to any change a rigorous appraisal of the existing traffic be carried out to establish the level of risk in the area; this level can then be used ...

Marine navigation traffic control system
Electrical Engineering, 1961A system of marine navigation for channel, harbor, and bay areas has been developed that is independent of weather and darkness, and of human error. Two transmitters, operating on different frequencies, feed two cable loops located in the bed of the channel.

Emission Evaluation of Marine Traffic
2020Air pollution is an issue that has been widespread concern in all sectors of society. The pollutants, including toxic gases, greenhouse gases, and particulate matters, have permeated every aspect of our daily life and have a negative impact on human health, agriculture, industry, and climate change.

Training for Marine Traffic Control
Navigation, 1975There are some masters and pilots who find their blood pressure rising when the subject of shore-based Marine Traffic Control (MTC) is mentioned. The reasons for this are varied and range from the fear of a loss of job-satisfaction, or even loss of job, to a distrust of the capabilities of such a system, that is, they believe that they might become ...

Marine Traffic Engineering—A New Discipline
Marine Technology and SNAME News, 1980Faced with essential growth of ports and waterways, our practice in the United States has been for each of the various agencies concerned to focus upon its own area of interest. If an accident occurs, the tendency is to demand a change in ship design or practice when the configuration of the port, waterway, or pier may be in need of improvement.

Maximally permissive supervisor of marine canal traffic system
2006 IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Conference, 2006This paper deals with the automatic traffic control of vessels moving through the marine canal traffic system. Dangerous vessel deadlock situations may occur in case of vessels’ irregular moving through the system. To avoid this, the vessel traffic is supervised and controlled by traffic lights.

Pilots in the Marine Traffic System
Navigation, 1979To the world's marine traffic system has been introduced a new and sometimes controversial element—Vessel Traffic Systems (VTS)—representing a necessary governmental attempt at more orderly management of marine traffic, to increase a no longer politically adequate overall level of safety.

The Social Cost of Marine Accidents and Marine Traffic Management Systems
Journal of Navigation, 1980The benefits to society that would result from the introduction of a given marine traffic management system depend directly on the scale of the system introduced. Since the cost society would be required to pay for a marine traffic management system would also vary directly with its scale, by focusing on the cost of marine accidents both from cargo ...
