Description
This
book focuses on the recent results of the research project funded by a
Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (S) of the Japan Society for the Promotion
of Science (No. 23226017) from FY 2011 to FY 2015 on an autonomous spilled oil
and gas tracking buoy system and its applications to marine disaster prevention
systems from a scientific point of view. This book spotlights research on
marine disaster prevention systems related to incidents involving oil tankers
and offshore platforms, approaching these problems from new scientific and
technological perspectives. The most essential aspect of this book is the development
of a deep-sea underwater robot for real-time monitoring of blowout behavior of
oil and gas from the seabed and of a new type of autonomous surface vehicle for
real-time tracking and monitoring of oil spill spread and drift on the sea
surface using an oil sensor. The mission of these robots is to provide the
simulation models for gas and oil blowouts or spilled oil drifting on the sea
surface with measured data for more precision of predictions of oil and gas
behavior.
