: With economic globalization, ships tend to be larger and faster, and the volume of maritime traffic is increasing. S hips sailing in waters with dense traffic flow are easy to fall into compli cated multi-ship encounter situations and have a high risk of collision. Thus, it is crucial to conduct risk analysis in such situations. In this paper, a modified collision analysis method for detecting dangerous multi-ship encounters in ports and waterwa ys is proposed. The velocity obstacle algorithm is utilized to detect encounters. The model of the elliptic ship domain was integrated into the algorithm as the criteria. The Boolean operation was also used in the multi-ship encounter. A case study is conducted to illustrate the efficacy of the improved model, and a comparison between the existing method and the formal model is also performed. The results indicate that with the integration of the ship domain, the proposed method can effectively detect the encounters of multiple ships which are dangerous to collide.

: A good situation awareness (SA) of the navigator is essential for the safety of the ship, especially in coastal areas. In this study, the Unity 3D engine was used to simulate the navigation of a coastal tradin g vessel along predefined routes in the Baltic Sea. The SA of the helmsman, who was either Chinese or European, was assessed several times wit h the SAGAT test (Endsley, 1995b, 20-21) and compared between low and high workload conditions and between manual and autopilot navigation. High workload and automated navigation both reduced SA sign ificantly and in an additive manner. No difference was found between Chinese and European participants. In contrast to previous accident analyses of SA, we found that SA l evel 3 (projection of future states) was most strongly affected by both factors, whil e SA levels 1 (perception of relevant information) and 2 (comprehension of the current situation) suffered to a lesser extent. Further research is needed to establish spec ific relationships between types of automation on ships, types of workload, and SA pr oblems in order to design countermeasures.

: The article presents the results of the DEMATEL method (Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory) method. The method had been used to identify and analyze cause and effect relationships between factors that influence the use of inl and waterway transport. The author took into account interactions between seven factors. The factors were: (1) accessibility and condition of ports, transshipment infrastructure, shipyards, and service areas, (2) operating parameters of the linear infrastr ucture (waterways and locks), (3) technical condition of the fleet, (4) human errors committed by crew, infrastructure operators, and/or decision makers, (5) climate and weather conditions (floods, droughts, wind, ice, groundwater level), (6) financing the water transport system - repairs, ongoing maintenance of infrastructure; subsidies and discounts for shipowners, (7) availability of information (e.g. navigation messages), method of data collection and distribution, communication and promotion of inland navigation. The analysis based on the DEMATEL method used the survey conducted among Polish experts in the field of inland waterway transport. The results of the analysis show that the most influencing factor is financing, and the most important cause infl uencing inland waterway transport is climate.

: The development of smart port systems and autonomous navigation is related to the growing interest in the systemic approach to risk assessment of port operations especially for the vessels transporting dangerous cargo. The paper presents the general risk model of port manoeuvres of a chemical tanker vessel. The risk model is based on Ba yesian influence diagram allowing to determine the risk dependent on the decisions made with respect to the applied safety options. The conclusions are based on real life near miss examples and discussion of experienced Ship Masters.

: This paper presents the development of a method for calculating the horizontal contact forces between two bodies in a real-time ship manoeuvring simulator. The method was implemented in the simulator of the University of São Paulo, whose computing core is named “Dyna”. The model proposed calculates restoration and friction forces between bodies and has a Momentum -Impulse based criterion to reduce numerical issues when the simulation numerical integration has large time - steps. The model was empirically evaluated at the simulator by deck officers, in real-time simulations with pilots and tugmasters. We also ran simulations of that model to compare its performance under different integration time-steps lengths.

: An increase in the complexity of systems onboard ships in the last decade has seen a rise in the number of reported maritime cyber ‐ attacks. To tackle this rising risk the International Maritime Organization published high ‐ level requirements for cyber risk management in 2017. These requirements obligate organisations to establish procedures, like incident response plans, to manage cyber ‐ incidents. However, there is currently no standardised framework for this implementation. This paper proposes a Cyber Emergency Response Procedure (CERP), that provides a framework for organisations to better facilitate their crew’s response to a cyber ‐ incident that is considerate of their operational environment. Based on an operations flowchart, the CERP provides a step ‐ by ‐ step procedure that guides a crew’s decision ‐ making process in the face of a cyber ‐ incident. This high ‐ level framework provides a blueprint for organisations to develop their own cyber ‐ incident response procedures that are considerate of operational constraints, existing incident procedures and the complexity of modern maritime systems.
