معرفی
Dymytro Makarchuk is a Senior Lecturer in Bridge Simulation and Ship Handling at Solent University's Warsash Maritime School and Department of Maritime Operations. He is a member of the Warsash Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS) Research Centre and serves as the Research Group Convenor there. His work focuses on maritime technology, environmental awareness, and AI-driven solutions for navigation and safety.
Research interests include optimizing vessel routes using fuzzy logic and cellular automata, unmanned systems for environmental monitoring, and navigation in confined spaces. He collaborates on EU-funded projects like SEAGUARD (2024-2027), which integrates AI and robotics for maritime safety, and Innovate UK projects addressing air quality and virtual reality applications in hazardous environments.
Recent publications explore the application of AI to maritime logistics, with a focus on environmental and operational efficiency. His projects are funded by the European Commission, UK Research and Innovation, and Innovate UK.
Grants and collaborations include leadership roles in two major projects: SEAGUARD (€X) and a confined-area navigation initiative (UK£X). These projects emphasize interdisciplinary approaches to maritime challenges, combining robotics, environmental science, and AI.
