Department of People and Technology, Roskilde University, invites
applications for a position as postdoc of Maritime Optimization
from 1/5/2023 or as soon as possible thereafter. The position as
postdoc is limited to a period of 1 year.<br>
<br>
As postdoc of maritime optimization, you will be joining the team
of researchers working on the ROROGREEN project. ROROGREEN aims at
marking the RoRo shipping industry more sustainable though the
used of data-driven decision making. In particular, you would be
working with real-time stowage planning for trailer-based RoRo
vessels. Stowage planning is the process of assigning cargo
trailers a position into the vessel. The arrangement of cargo is
restricted by vessel stability constraints, and cargo arrival
times are uncertain, and should be optimized as to maximize cargo
intake and minimize emissions (by reducing ballast water).<br>
<br>
As part of the ROROGREEN project you will be under the supervision
of Assoc. Prof. Line Reinhardt and Assoc. Prof. Dario Pacino.
Moreover, you will have a chance to collaborate with project
partners from Roskilde University, Southern Denmark University,
and the Technical University of Denmark. The project is based on a
collaboration with DFDS A/S, the largest Danish RoRo shipping
company.<br>
<br>
Responsibilities and tasks:<br>
The postdoc’s work will include research within the forecasting of
cargo arrivals, and the implementation of a dynamic
(online/real-time) algorithms for the RoRo stowage planning
problem.<br>
<br>
The ideal candidate is expected to:<br>
• implement forecasting algorithms to estimate cargo arrivals,<br>
• implement heuristic algorithms for real-time decision making,<br>
• implement monte-carlo simulations to evaluate algorithms’
efficiency.<br>
<br>
Qualifications:<br>
Applicants must hold a PhD or equivalent within operations
research. Qualifications within the following scientific areas are
required:<br>
<br>
• metaheuristics,<br>
• mathematical modelling (mixed-integer programming),<br>
• proficiency in programming (more than just Python is preferred).<br>
<br>
The ideal candidate shall be enterprising and possess good
communication skills, be visible and involved in the department’s
daily activities, in addition to being willing to engage in
disciplinary and interdisciplinary collaboration across the
department.<br>
