Introduction of LNG Carrier Equipped with ME-GI Engine

LNG Carrier Propulsion by ME Engines and Reliquefaction

However, LNG carriers are expensive ships, and the contractual supply of cargo is usually tied by strict charterparty conditions. Therefore, the market has been hesitant to look at and accept other propulsion systems. Now this has changed. With the market launch of electronically controlled low speed diesels and reliable independent reliquefaction technology, all the traditional reasons not to ...

Analysing the risk of LNG carrier operations

This paper presents a generic, high-level risk assessment of the global operation of ocean-going liquefied natural gas (LNG) carriers. The analysis collects and combines information from several sources such as an initial hazid, a thorough review of historic LNG accidents, review of previous studies, published damage statistics and expert judgement, and develops modular risk models for critical...

Optimization of Single-Cylinder Compressed Air Engine Equipped with Prechamber

In some last decades, increasing air pollution and its consequences captivate attention of researchers from all over the world. Scientists have developed some alternate fuels to eliminate the exhaust pollutants. In this paper, idea of using compressed air as a power source in natural gas engines is presented and discussed to explore the concept of new energy vehicles. However, energy densityof ...

The Multi-Engine ASP Solver me-asp

In this paper we describe the new system ME-ASP, which applies machine learning techniques for inductively choosing, among a set of available ones, the “best” ASP solver on a per-instance basis. Moreover, we report the results of some experiments, carried out on benchmarks from the “System Track” of the 3rd ASP Competition, showing the state-of-the-art performance of our solver.
