Geertsma, R.D. (author), Visser, K. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author)Shipping urgently needs to reduce its impact on the environment, both due to CO<sub>2</sub>, NO<sub>x</sub> and particulate matter (PM) emissions and due to underwater noise. On the other hand, multifunction ships such as offshore support vessels, anchor handling and towing vessels, naval vessels and wind farm construction and support vessels...journal article 2018

McNamara, P. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), Cañizares, J. C. (author), Farina, M. (author), Maestre, J. M. (author), Trodden, P. (author), Olaru, S. (author)This paper and a second accompanying paper (Olaru et al., 2018) explore the potential of Distributed Predictive Control (DMPC) literature to provide valuable insights into social behaviour. In particular this first paper focuses on the mechanisms of group regulation in social systems. It will be noted that there are major differences between...journal article 2018

(author)This paper and an accompanying paper (McNamara et al., 2018) revisit the Distributed Predictive Control (DMPC) literature and seek to establish links with the social behaviour, focusing in particular on ways in which DMPC could be used to provide insights into the mechanisms of group regulation in social systems. It will be noted that there...journal article 2018

Alves Beirigo, B. (author), Schulte, F. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author)In the realm of human urban transportation, many recent studies have shown that comparatively smaller fleets of shared autonomous vehicles (SAVs) are able to provide efficient door-to-door transportation services for city dwellers. However, because of the steady growth of e-commerce and same-day delivery services, new city logistics...journal article 2018

van Duin, Ron (author), Geerlings, H. (author), Froese, Jens (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author)The growth in container volumes over the last decades means an increase in container handling at terminals around the world. Notwithstanding the economic benefits, container handling causes additional pressure on the surrounding infrastructure and the environment. This is happening precisely at a time when environmental issues, in particular CO2...journal article 2017

Geertsma, R.D. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), Visser, K. (author), Loonstijn, M.A. (author), Hopman, J.J. (author)Ships, in particular service vessels, need to reduce fuel consumption, emissions and cavitation noise while maintaining manoeuvrability and preventing engine overloading. Diesel mechanical propulsion with controllable pitch propellers can provide high fuel efficiency with good manoeuvrability. However, the conventional control strategy with...journal article 2017

van Riessen, B. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), Dekker, Rommert (author)The intermodal hinterland transportation of maritime containers is under pressure from port authorities and shippers to achieve a more integrated, efficient network operation. Current optimisation methods in literature yield limited results in practice, though, as the transportation product structure limits the flexibility to optimise network...journal article 2017

Hjortnaes, T. (author), Wiegmans, B. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), Zuidwijk, R.A. (author), Klijnhout, R. (author)Shipping companies are striving to optimize their empty container repositioning strategies which also contribute to reduced congestion and environmental improvements. In this paper we propose a multi-commodity model that makes an explicit distinction between flows of non-damaged containers, on the one hand, and flows of damaged containers, on...journal article 2017

Zheng, H. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), Lodewijks, G. (author)Large ports are seeking innovative logistical ways to improve their competitiveness world-wide. This article proposes waterborne AGVs, inspired by conventional automated guided vehicles and autonomous surface vessels, for transport over water. A predictive path following with arrival time awareness controller is proposed for such waterborne AGVs...journal article 2016

Corman, F. (author), Xin, J. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), D'ariano, A. (author), Sama, M. (author), Toli, A. (author), Lodewijks, G. (author)This work tackles the problem of controlling operations at an automated container terminal. In the context of large supply chains, there is a growing trend for increasing productivity and economic efficiency. New optimization models and algorithms are provided for scheduling and routing equipment that is moving containers in a quay area,...journal article 2016

Corman, F. (author), Viti, F. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author)Optimizing the performance of multimodal freight transport networks involves adequately balancing the interplay between costs, volumes, times of departure and arrival, and times of travel. In order to study this interplay, we propose an assignment model that is able to efficiently determine flows and costs in a multimodal network. The model is...journal article 2015
