Vettor, R. and Guedes Soares, C. (2015), Multi-objective route optimization for onboard decision support system, Information, Communication and Environment: Marine Navigation and Safety of Sea Transportation, Adam Weintrit & Tomasz Neumann (Eds.), Leiden, The Netherlands, CRC Press, Taylor & Francis Group, pp. 99-106.
An onboard decision support system for the route selection is being developed. The intrinsic multi-objective nature of the problem is kept by adopting a widely tested and robust genetic algorithm allowing the optimization of conflicting objective such as the expected time of arrival (ETA), the fuel oil consumption (FOC) and the safety, resulting in a set of routes approximating the optimum in the Pareto meaning. The complete modelling of the ship responses in waves and engine performances for different sea-states, ship speeds and headings will also be described. Finally a test case will allow to assess the potentialities and lacks of the tool and to discuss about the further improvements of the system.
