Accurate fishing activity detection from the trajectories of fishing vessels can not only achieve high-precision fishery management but also ensure the reasonable and sustainable development of marine fishery resources. This paper proposes a new meth...

This paper is concerned with the trajectory tracking control of unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) subject to input quantization, actuator faults and dead zones. In scenarios with dense marine facilities, there are constraints on the tracking performan...

A suitable jump Markov system (JMS) filtering approach provides an efficient technique for tracking surface targets. In complex surface target tracking situations, due to the joint influences of lost measurements with an unknown probability and heavy...

This paper realizes the simultaneous optimization of a vessel’s course and speed for a whole voyage within the estimated time of arrival (ETA), which can ensure the voyage is safe and energy-saving through proper planning of the route and speed...

The engine system is critical for a marine vehicle, and its performance significantly affects the efficiency and safety of the whole ship. Due to the harsh working environment and the complex system structure, a marine system is prone to have many ki...

During scientific expeditions in Indonesia and Vietnam, several sponge specimens belonging to the genus Cladocroce were collected. The integration of morphological and molecular analyses, incorporating species delimitation models (ABGD, ASAP, and bPT...

This paper presents an analysis of a new method for retrieving the parameters of the atmospheric boundary layer in hurricanes. This method is based on the approximation of the upper parabolic part of the wind speed profile and the retrieval of the lo...

Among non-native copepods, the calanoid Pseudodiaptomus marinus Sato, 1913 is the species probably spreading at the fastest pace in European and neighbouring waters since its first record in the Adriatic Sea in 2007. In this contribution, we provide...

Wind turbines and their associated parts are subjected to cyclical loads, such as bending, torque, longitudinal stresses, and twisting moments. The novel spatiotemporal reliability technique described in this research is especially useful for high-di...

In this paper, we propose a cubic spline interpolation method to generate a desired curve path and present an integral line of sight (ILOS) method and a control strategy for course tracking control based on nonsingular terminal sliding mode to enable...
