Maritime-Port Technology and Development

Maritime-Port Technology and Development contains the latest research results and innovations as presented at the 2014 International Maritime and Port Technology and Development Conference (Trondheim, Norway, 27- 29 October 2014). The volume is divided into a wide range of topics:

? Efficient and environmentally friendly energy use in ships and ports
? Demanding and safe maritime operations and intervention
? Maritime transport and operations in the Arctic
? Remotely controlled and monitored shipping, traffic surveillance and control
? Port-ship interface optimization
? Effective port infrastructure
? LNG and other novel fuels: Distribution and use
? Optimization in maritime logistics, fleet and vessel design

Maritime-Port Technology and Development contributes to efficiency and reliability of seaborne transport and operations, and will be useful to academics and engineers involved in marine technology-related research and the marine industry.
