Unmanned Surface Vessel Cluster Path Planning Based on Deep Reinforcement Learning
With the wide application of unmanned surface vessels(USVs) in the field of maritime search, the traditional path planning algorithms fail to meet the complex rescue scenarios, which can lead to local optimum, low task completion rate, and slow ...

Towards building a safety case for Marine Unmanned Surface Vehicles: a Bayesian perspective [PDF]
Marine Unmanned Surface Vehicles (MUSVs) are essential platforms for persistent and adaptable ocean monitoring and sampling. In order to operate these platforms in coastal areas or near oil and gas waters the MUSVs must meet statutorily and industry ...

Abstract Plutonium was discovered and first synthesized in the early 1940's. Several isotopes of plutonium are used in nuclear technologies, 238Pu for heat generation and 239Pu for energy production and weapons. Both isotopes emit alpha particles, which pose a significant radiation hazard when incorporated into the body.

The New Science of Composite Materials
Illustration of nanowires (of radius r) dispersed inside a monofilament, presenting their improved alignment and overlapping due to decreased interwire distance (marked by λ) as a consequence of lowering the filament diameter by drawing. This work reviews the conceptual and technological evolution of composite materials, emphasizing the transition from

ABSTRACT In this study, we tackle the problem of surveilling a large area over the sea without access to the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) while searching for the known target vessel. The system utilizes an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) equipped with long‐range radio frequency (LoRa) localization and an RGB camera to detect the target ...

Modelling of a captive unmanned aerial system teledetecting oil pollution on sea surface
Recent major oil-spills were tracked using observations with sufficient altitudes over the sea surface, to detect oil slick locations. For oil-spill responders, we propose a captive Unmanned Aerial System, UAS acting like a periscope over a ship or ...
