Abstract

Speed Control has been considered to be a useful measure to improve the safety of navigation in narrow waterway. According to the simulation analysis, it becomes clear that the speed control doesn't always bring merit in safety, it also produces demerit in ship handling difficulty that imposes on mariners. Although the speed control may decrease the chance of overtaking when the legal control of speed limitation is imposed, but it makes the elapsed-time to overtake more longer in case of heavy traffic. In the present paper, the quantitative evaluation has been done to verify the merits and demerits of the speed control by introducing Environmental Stress Model.
