Vermeulen, Maurice (author)The IMO has proposed Just-In-Time arrivals and services as one of the short-term solutions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in maritime shipping. The Just-In-Time concept allows vessels to optimize their speed during the voyage. If a vessel earlier knows at which time it is requested to arrive at the pilot boarding place, the vessel can adapt...master thesis 2020

Span, Karel (author)Jumbo Maritime is a shipping company active in the heavy lifting market. Jumbo uses stabilisers to enlarge the stability of the ship during lifting. By using stabilisers Jumbo can perform heavy lifts with a relative small ship, this is one of the major advantages. Downside of using stabilisers is that the installation and de-installation is a...master thesis 2019

Drenthe, Kevin (author)Maritime transport covers about 90%of world trade and is seen as one of the most cost-effective way of transporting goods. In order to safely accommodate vessels calling into ports, tugs are operated to assist various sized vessels with navigating, manoeuvring and berthing. Competition within the ship handling market has always been fierce....master thesis 2019

Assessing port competition via a cost-based logistic chain model: A transparent and generic approachLute, Kevin (author)This study was conducted to address the lack of insight port authorities have in port competitiveness. Within this thesis a data-driven model is presented that allows to assess port competition within a bounded scope. This model is developed from the ground up and programmed in the Python programming language as a stand-alone solution. The model...master thesis 2019

Dekker, Gerben (author)Small scale inland shipping, especially in the case of transported containers, is used only marginally compared to its capacity. The small inland waterways have abundant capacity to accommodate up to 700 percent more transport. On the other hand, road based container transport is cause for external damages in the form of congestion, emissions...master thesis 2018

van der Meer, Mick (author)Due to the increased social importance and regulations on shipping emissions, effort must be made by shipowners, operators and naval architects to reduce the amount of air emissions from ships. A large set of emission control methods exists, but compatibility and interaction issues complicate their implementation. This thesis contains a decision...master thesis 2018

ter Laare, Wessel (author)Mercurius Shipping Group invested in two container-crane vessels which are able to load and unload cargo to and from its holds. Due to their unique feature, the crane, failure of the vessels results in large financial consequences. Previous experience showed that these costs could be mitigated with easily/timely available spare-parts. The main...master thesis 2018

Luik, Lucas (author)Ballast water, routinely taken on by ships for stability and structural integrity can contain thousands of mi- crobes, algae and animals. When discharging this ballast water holding these organisms in a non-native ecosystem, new invasive aquatic species can be introduced. This can have to devastating consequences for the local ecosystem. To...master thesis 2017

Petri, T.M. (author)Multipurpose vessels have the ability to carry multiple types of cargo. The larger quantities of cargoes are often transported by larger (more specialized) vessels such as bulk carriers and dedicated container vessels, but there are often a lot of small quantities of cargo that are too small for this type of vessels. That is where the...master thesis 2017
