1. Avaliação das instalações de máquinas em navios visando redução do uso de combustível fóssil. / Evaluation of ship machinery instalations for reducing the use of fossil fuel.
Este trabalho trata da questão da redução de consumo de combustível fóssil em instalações de máquinas de navios. É um tema de grande interesse no momento, devido ao alto custo operacional e à emissão de poluentes decorrentes do processo da combustão desses derivados de petróleo. Apresenta-se, inicialmente o cenário atual e tendências futuras d

2. Ballast water: a review of the impact on the world public health
Since the nineteenth century ships have been using ballast water (BW) for safety, stability, propulsion and maneuverability, as well as to redress loss of fuel weight and water consumption, and to maintain structural stress at acceptable levels. Ballast water has been spreading many non-native species around the globe, but little is known about the extent an

3. A Test Bed Applied Mobile Robot Navigation
It is presented a test bed applied to studies on dynamics, control, and navigation of mobile robots. A cargo ship scale model was chosen, which can be radio-controlled or operated autonomously through an embedded control system. A control program, which manages on board mission execution, is implemented on a microcontroller. Navigation is based on an electro
