Ship Berthing Information Extraction System Using Three-Dimensional Light Detection and Ranging Data
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 Safe and efficient berthing is essential to ensure maritime transportation and the safety of ships and ports. Three-dimensional (3D) light detection and ranging (LiDAR) can monitor and support ship berthing because it provides abundant target information

Design of an adaptive backstepping controller for auto-berthing a cruise ship under wind loads
International Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2014 The auto-berthing of a ship requires excellent control for safe accomplishment. Crabbing, which is the pure sway motion of a ship without surge velocity, can be used for this purpose.
