This research has been conducted to analyze the current water production process and see if improvements in terms of energy efficiency is possible by using the optimal configuration for different sailing profiles. Water consumption on cruise vessel is higher than on non-passenger vessels. Freshwater …

On board the vessels of Holland America Line a lot of attention is drawn to prevent the loss of energy. On board energy is produced in several ways by fuel. Therefor fuel is the biggest expense of a cruise ship. On board steam is used for heating purposes. The type of steam used for these heating purposes …

Cruise ship fires are not uncommon. Fire on board of the cruise ships is one of the most dangerous accident that can occur at any moment. The damage caused by fire is huge and can negatively affect the company’s reputation. There is a product on the market that can, according to the manufacturers, detect …

For long flights, the cruise is the longest phase and where the largest amount of fuel is consumed. An in-cruise optimization method has been implemented to calculate the optimal trajectory that reduces the flight cost. A three-dimensional grid has been created, coupling lateral navigation and vertical …

ICT in intelligente voertuigen levert innovatieve systemen op. Deze innovatieve systemen richten zich op maatschappelijke knelpunten (verkeersveiligheid, milieubelasting en congestie) en consumenten waarde. Recent wordt meer nadruk gelegd op maatschappelijke knelpunten. Vijf (5) a tien (10) jaar geleden …

Research into the network communication of cars in a dynamic environment. With this communication, cars in combination with a cooperative adaptive cruise control algorithm, GPS and speed control can form a safer and better used road network.
