Dynamic Optimization of Ship Fuel Consumption Considering Time-varying Environmental Factors and Working Condition, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Khorasanchi, Mahdi (Supervisor) ; Mehdigholi, Hamid (Supervisor)
Abstract
The employment of strategies with low operational and capital investment to reduce ship's voyage costs is gaining considerable attention. With rising fuel prices, shipping companies are concerned with the increase of fuel costs of the ships. In this research, the smart steaming strategy, including the simultaneous optimization of ship's sailing route and speed, is proposed as an efficient alternative for the slow steaming to minimize ships' fuel consumption and voyage costs. By implementing the smart steaming strategy, ships owners can ensure that the ship sails at the optimal and safe sailing route and reaches the destination port on time. In addition, the proposed shipping strategy can...
