Ships arrival times prediction using deep learning

The objective of this research project is to use Deep Learning in predicting ships’ arrival times of a medium size multi-commodity bulk port. The outcome of this project will serve dynamically in updating berths schedules to minimize ports turnaround time and build models closer to reality. We will be using ships trajectories data or AIS […]

Water Quality and Waste-Solids Dewatering at a Zero-Exchange Recirculating Aquaculture System

To meet growing demand, the aquaculture industry is building increasingly larger land-based farms. There are few locations which can provide enough fresh water for their operation and the industry is forced to reduce its water requirements further by modifying recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) to incorporate zero-exchange technology. Cooke Aquaculture Inc. is currently constructing a zero-exchange […]
