New wind turbine technologies and designs are being explored in order to reduce the cost
of energy from offshore wind farms. Two potential routes to a lower cost of energy are the X …

This paper reviews the state of the art in offshore wind farm operations and maintenance
with a focus on decision support models for the scheduling of maintenance. Factors …

This paper presents a survey on the multi-trip vehicle routing problem (MTVRP) and on
related routing problems where vehicles are allowed to perform multiple trips. The first part …

This paper presents a literature survey on the fleet size and mix problem in maritime
transportation. Fluctuations in the ship** market and frequent mismatches between fleet …

Reducing the operation and maintenance (O&M) cost is a necessity in current offshore wind
farms so that the produced power can achieve a competitive price in the market. An offshore …

In this paper, we present the scheduling problem on a given route where speed optimization
under various weather conditions is to be performed. Different approaches for calculating …

All species of large whales are susceptible to vessel strikes, but the true scale and
geographical extent of such strikes is not known. This paper provides a qualitative …

This paper presents a survey on the multi-trip vehicle routing problem (MTVRP) and on
related routing problems where vehicles are allowed to perform multiple trips and …

This paper presents a branch-and-cut algorithm and an adaptive large neighborhood search
(ALNS) heuristic for the periodic supply vessel planning problem (PSVPP) arising in the …

We study an operational planning problem arising in the offshore oil and gas industry, in
which we determine routes, as well as sailing speeds along these routes, for a set of …
