Numerical simulation of oblique towing test

open access: yesAnnals of "Dunărea de Jos" University of Galaţi: Fascicle XI Shipbuilding, 2016
During the design of a ship, manoeuvrability performance should be measured in order to ensure course keeping and turning ability. In order to find out these characteristics, the numerical simulation of the Oblique Towing Test (OTT) has been developed ...

Exploring Recreational Conflict on Shared Backcountry Tramping and Mountain Biking Tracks in Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Geographer, Volume 82, Issue 3, December 2026.
ABSTRACT In a move away from exclusive use by modality, a number of shared tramping and mountain biking tracks have been developed in New Zealand. We ask: On shared tracks, what tensions arise and how are they experienced? Using data from online surveys of track‐users, we examine bikers' and trampers' perspectives and experiences of conflict.

Design and Implementation of a Digitalised Marine Aids to Navigation Monitoring System for High‐Density Maritime Traffic Waters: A Case Study of the Strait of Malacca

open access: yesApplied Research, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2026.
A digitalised Aids‐to‐Navigation monitoring system (ARMS) was deployed across 478 installations in the Strait of Malacca and Malaysian waters, integrating multi‐sensor edge validation, hybrid AIS/VHF/cellular communication, and a centralised platform. It achieved 98.3% availability and cut fault‐detection time from weeks to just 8.4 min.

Characterizing Habitat Suitability of Long‐Finned Pilot Whales in a Key Conservation Region of the Southern Iberian Peninsula Using Satellite Tracking Data

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The waters surrounding the southern Iberian Peninsula are a key conservation area for the long‐finned pilot whale (Globicephala melas melas), particularly in the pelagic regions of the Strait of Gibraltar, the Alboran Sea, and the Gulf of Vera, where upwelling, complex bathymetry and frontal dynamics enhance productivity and prey availability,

An Improved A-Star Algorithm Considering Water Current, Traffic Separation and Berthing for Vessel Path Planning

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
A traditional A-Star (A*) algorithm generates an optimal path by minimizing the path cost. For a vessel, factors of path length, obstacle collision risk, traffic separation rule and manoeuvrability restriction should be all taken into account for path ...
