Development of a New Ship Adaptive Weather Routing Model Based on Seakeeping Analysis and Optimization

This paper provides a new adaptive weather routing model, based on the Dijkstra shortest path algorithm, aiming to select the optimal route that maximizes the ship performances in a seaway. The model is based on a set of ship motion-limiting criteria and on the weather forecast maps, providing the s...
