Researchers at the Maritime Academy of Yessenov University study problems directly related to shipping on the Caspian Sea: navigation safety, radar data processing and the operation of seaports.
Maritime-related publications:
- Zh. Zhumayev — dependence of the elements of relative movement on the true parameters of ship movement (IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2021);
- Zh. Zhumayev — relative motion regularity and radar data processing (Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering, 2023);
- Zh. Zhumayev — an algorithm for converting quaternions in solving uncrewed navigation problems (Lecture Notes in Networks and Systems, 2025);
- A. A. Yussupov — a mathematical model of technological interaction between sea and rear container terminals (News of the National Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Kazakhstan, 2024);
- A. U. Tabylov — a funding model for cyber security facilities of a port information system (Journal of Theoretical and Applied Information Technology, 2018).
The Academy’s main research areas are navigation safety on the Caspian Sea, digitalisation and automation of maritime technologies, reliability and efficiency of port equipment, environmental safety of maritime transport and energy efficiency of shipping.
The Polaris K-Sim Navigation and K-Sim Engine Full Mission simulator complexes, launched in 2025, strengthen the practical base for research and training.
