An active disturbance rejection control based on fractional calculus is proposed to improve the motion performance and robustness of autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV). The active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) method can estimate and compensa...

Following the principles of sustainable development in the development of oil and gas fields in the Arctic will ensure that hydrocarbon production and transportation operations comply with stringent environmental regulations, the economies of the nor...

Filter-feeding sponges pump large amounts of water and contribute significantly to grazing impact, matter transport and nutrient cycling in many marine benthic communities. For ecological studies it is therefore of interest to be able to estimate the...

The coastal area of Ulleungdo in the East Sea has experienced large climate and environmental changes. However, research on marine benthic animals in this area has been very limited. In the present study, we investigated the spatial and temporal dist...

This study proposes the design of a tidal turbine station keeping system based on the adoption of a tensioned mooring system. Damping is introduced to investigate its effect on the reduction in the peak load experienced by tidal turbines during their...

The consumption of a pufferfish, Takifugu flavipterus or komonfugu in Japanese, formerly known as Takifugu poecilonotus, is popular in Japan. However, T. flavipterus is frequently involved in cases of tetrodotoxin (TTX) poisoning in Japan. Although v...

The shipbuilding industry demands intelligent robot, which is capable of various tasks without laborious pre-teaching or programming. Vision system guided robots could be a solution for autonomous working. This paper introduces the principle and tech...

Rosette-type diffusers are becoming popular nowadays for discharging wastewater effluents. Effluents are known as buoyant jets if they have a lower density than the receiving water, and they are often used for municipal and desalination purposes. The...

This paper addresses the formation motion control of heterogeneous multi-agent unmanned systems via a distributed consensus approach. The considered heterogeneous system consisted of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and unmanned surface vehicles (USVs...

Recently, the application of machine learning has been explored to assess the main damage consequences without employing flooding sensors. This method can be the base of a new generation of onboard decision support systems to help the master during t...
