    • Autonomous Maritime Collision Avoidance: Field verification of Autonomous Surface Vehicle Behavior in Challenging Scenarios 

      Kufoalor, D. Kwame Minde; Johansen, Tor Arne; Brekke, Edmund Førland; Hepsø, Arild; Trnka, Kenan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      We present results from sea trials for an autonomous surface vehicle (ASV) equipped with a collision avoidance system based on model predictive control (MPC). The sea trials were performed in the North Sea as part of an ...

    • Autonomous recovery of a fixed-wing UAV using a net suspended by two multirotor UAVs 

      Klausen, Kristian; Fossen, Thor I.; Johansen, Tor Arne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      This article presents a novel recovery method for fixed‐wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), aimed at enabling operations from marine vessels. Instead of using the conventional method of using a fixed net on the ship deck, ...

    • Information-driven robotic sampling in the coastal ocean 

      Fossum, Trygve Olav; Eidsvik, Jo; Ellingsen, Ingrid H.; Alver, Morten; Fragoso, Glaucia Moreira; Johnsen, Geir; mendes, renato; Ludvigsen, Martin; Rajan, Kanna (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Efficient sampling of coastal ocean processes, especially mechanisms such as upwelling and internal waves and their influence on primary production, is critical for understanding our changing oceans. Coupling robotic ...

    • The branching-course model predictive control algorithm for maritime collision avoidance 

      Eriksen, Bjørn-Olav Holtung; Breivik, Morten; Wilthil, Erik Falmår; Flåten, Andreas Lindahl; Brekke, Edmund Førland (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      This article presents a new algorithm for short‐term maritime collision avoidance (COLAV) named the branching‐course model predictive control (BC‐MPC) algorithm. The algorithm is designed to be robust with respect to noise ...
