A Feasibility Study of Catamaran Ferry for Domestic Cargo Shipping

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

Cargo-mix optimization in Liner Shipping

International transportation constitutes one of the biggest challenges in limiting CO2 emission in the world: it is technically hard to find viable alternatives to fossil fuels, and due to the international nature, it is very difficult to regulate CO2 emission of intercontinental trade. Moreover, it is hard to motivate companies to pay for cleaner transport since transportation is not visible t...

a study on thermodynamic models for simulation of 1,3 butadiene purification columns

attempts have been made to study the thermodynamic behavior of 1,3 butadiene purification columns with the aim of retrofitting those columns to more energy efficient separation schemes. 1,3 butadiene is purified in two columns in series through being separated from methyl acetylene and 1,2 butadiene in the first and second column respectively. comparisons have been made among different therm...
