Tóm tắt

Fuel consumption is an important factor to be considered in the process of weather routing. How to choose an appropriate route according to the requirements is particularly important. This paper proposes a method to optimize the ship weather routing. Based on the original genetic algorithm, the trigonometric function selection operator is introduced, the mutation operator is improved to increase the search range in the initial stage of the algorithm, and gradually narrow the search range in the middle and late stages of the algorithm, thus the convergence is sped up and the running time of the algorithm is reduced. Aiming at the incomplete ship speed fuel consumption comparison table, this paper uses SPSS (Statistical Product and Service Solutions) software to perform curve fitting and a curve with the best fitting degree is found. Then the curve equation is used to calculate the total fuel consumption of the case ship (S175 container ship) sailing through between the two ports Yokohama (35° N, 141° E) and San Francisco (37° N, 123° W), to verify the performance of the improved algorithm. Aiming at the minimum fuel consumption, the fuel consumption of the optimized route is reduced by 7.84% compared with that of the Rhumb Line.
