Øivind Kåre Kjerstad
About
Professor at NTNU, Department of Ocean Operations and Civil Engineering, Ålesund
My research is primarily geared towards guidance, navigation and control of marine surface vessels with the ambition of unifying the system design to enable automated and safe quay-to-quay operation utilizing the whole available velocity domain. This implies special focus on:
- Nonlinear and hybrid control design
- Sensor fusion, situational awareness, and motion planning
- Vessel dynamics and handling both structure interaction and abrupt unmodeled environmental disturbances
- Actuator modelling and thrust allocation
