!! The problem. Given a vessel travelling along in a known position at a fixed velocity, and another vessel travelling at a known speed, but whose course can be altered, how do you compute the optimal course for the intercepting vessel? This is critical for pilots being put on or taken off tankers, or for police launches to intercept suspect vessels. How do you compute, in real time, the optimum course given the current parameters? ---- !! Discussion This is *your* page ... ---- CategoryMaths
