While experts have been trying to ascertain what autonomy might mean in and for maritime trade and operations for a few years, it has now become a necessity for the sector to progress. It’s no secret, though, that technological innovations come with their fair share of challenges. Control Systems for Automated and Autonomous Ships: Design Requirements, Technologies, and Case Studies successfully offer a better understanding of this disruptive context by consolidating engineering requirements with currently applicable, international legislation and regulatory standards.
Written by a professional with decades of experience in the industry, the book comprehensively covers sought-after information relating to the design, commissioning, and operating of control and monitoring processes and their enabling technologies on board intelligent vessels. Balancing the benefits of a well-structured, rigorous overview alongside topical case studies and lessons learnt from real pilot models, the volume supports both further academic research as well as practical, industry-relevant implementation of different levels of automation and the methods to achieve them through the very latest developments, crucially contributing to safer, more secure, more efficient - and therefore more sustainable too - cargo transportation, navigation, and ship operations worldwide. |
