Safer and More Efficient Ship Handling with the Pivot Point Concept [PDF]
The concept of the pivot point of a turning ship has been in existence for more than two centuries. It was not, however, properly understood from the beginning, and thus some misconceptions developed.

Ship to Ship Manoeuvring Simulation to Determine Elements of Tugboat Handling
Abstract The berthing and unberthing process of a shuttle tanker on the FSO unit has its difficulties if the FSO unit is between several mooring lines. This is an early study to simulate the berthing and unberthing of a 5000 DWT shuttle tanker at the FSO unit without going through the mooring ropes and still comply with the requirements ...

Optimization of LNG terminal parameters for a wide range of gas tanker sizes: the case of the port of Świnoujście [PDF]
LNG terminals are built to handle tankers of specific size, with cargo capacities within a narrow scope. This is related to the differences in cargo, fender and mooring systems used for LNG tanker handling of various sizes. The research problem solved in

Evaluation of a Virtual Reality System for Ship Handling Simulations
The assessment of virtual reality ship handling simulators is extremely important to guide the research in the field, since the prolonged use can affect both the performance and the experience of users. Here, we evaluate a ship simulator based on two different visualization setups: a non-immersive system based on standard monitors, and an immersive ...

Innovative Probabilistic Prediction of Accident Occurrence [PDF]
In the present paper, a safety evaluation index that determines the probability of accident occurrence of collision and stranding when the experiment is executed using a ship handling simulator is proposed, by noting Unsafe Ship Handling Situations.
