Environmental conditions affects ship’s course. Hence, it affects velocity, and efficiency of fuel consumption, which is an important research topic nowadays. Therefore, it is important to take it into account in the design of ship’s autopilots. In this paper a method is proposed to compensate for wind’s influence, which is based on wavelet transform by…

This paper discusses the indicators of development possibilities for sea ports of national importance which are opened for public traffic: Rijeka, Ploče, Zadar, Split and Dubrovnik, as well as for inland water ports: Vukovar, Osijek, Slavonski Brod and Sisak. Development of traffic and logistic integration processes have been proposed for Croatian sea and river ports,…

This article deals with a model of a logistics transport chain, which is the result of research for customers of selected commodities. Mineral water producers use sea transport for transporting their products to China nowadays. The Institute of Technology and Business in České Budějovice and the University of Žilina were asked to propose a new…

This article deals with the current state of the transport of goods on East – West routes. It presents currently available options of carriage with mentioning the barriers and problems associated with the increasing Eurasian trade of goods carried along these corridors. Special attention was focused on costs and time analysis of exemplary freight of…

The article considers the problems of justification of derivational micro-HPP usage for reserve water supply and standby power service of harbour installations for Russky Island. The first part of the article describes the justification of the power supply necessity for recreation facilities and yachting harbour installations (marinas) on Russky Island, including the prospect of their…

The Search and Rescue Radar Transponder (SART) operates in the frequency range from 9.2 GHz to 9.5 GHz. The SART is used on conventional and, partly, nonconventional vessels in search and rescue operations at sea. It is also used, to a certain extent, on inland waterways, rivers and lakes. As for their construction and design,…

This paper deals with one of the most significant fields of the application of mathematical calculations to optimize the operational research and traffic problems. This issue includes the distribution of goods from the source/sources (seaport in our case) to dispersed targets (customers).The application of the “simple shuttle problem” is one option of the transport problem…
