scope:

Maritime-Port Technology and Development contains the latest research results and innovations as presented at the 2014 International Maritime and Port Technology and Development Conference (Trondheim, Norway, 27- 29 October 2014). The volume is divided into a wide range of topics:

• Efficient and environmentally friendly energy use in ships and ports
• Demanding and safe maritime operations and intervention
• Maritime transport and operations in the Arctic
• Remotely controlled and monitored shipping, traffic surveillance and control
• Port-ship interface optimization
• Effective port infrastructure
• LNG and other novel fuels: Distribution and use
• Optimization in maritime logistics, fleet and vessel design

Maritime-Port Technology and Development contributes to efficiency and reliability of seaborne transport and operations, and will be useful to academics and engineers involved in marine technology-related research and the marine industry.
