Optimal Siting of Fire Stations Using GIS and ANT Algorithm
Safety and emergency response are being given greater importance while planning infrastructure and transportation projects. This is particularly so, when transporting hazardous materials HAZMAT within a heavily urbanized area such as Singapore. The number and location of fire stations significantly influence the efficiency of emergency response during fire accidents. This paper presents an appr...
متن کاملConsiderations for the Selection of Suitable Energy Sources Needed for Future World-Wide Energy Consumption
The major part of worldwide energy production concerns fossil energy. Therefore, concomitant carbon dioxide production is a problem. What are suitable alternatives? Here we present considerations for selection of energy sources needed for future worldwide energy consumption. Plants are collectors and converters of sunlight and are indispensable in the carbon cycle. This cycle converts sunlight ...
متن کاملA future for nuclear energy: pebble bed reactors
Pebble Bed Reactors could allow nuclear plants to support the goal of reducing global climate change in an energy hungry world. They are small, modular, inherently safe, use a demonstrated nuclear technology and can be competitive with fossil fuels. Pebble bed reactors are helium cooled reactors that use small tennis ball size fuel balls consisting of only 9 grams of uranium per pebble to provi...
متن کاملHeuristic algorithms for siting alternative-fuel stations using the Flow-Refueling Location Model
This paper presents three heuristic algorithms that solve for the optimal locations for refueling stations for alternative-fuels, such as hydrogen, ethanol, biodiesel, natural gas, or electricity. The Flow Refueling Location Model (FRLM) locates refueling stations to maximize the flow that can be refueled with a given number of facilities. The FRLM uses path-based demands, and because of the li...
متن کاملKey Considerations in the Design of Offshore Production Facilities for Arctic Offshore Conditions
For the development of production facilities in the Arctic, emphasis will be on the adequate design of structures and pipelines to resist the ice loads and on the requirements to a clean environment. However, the designers should take time to identify the most profitable development schemes by optimising the sales product from the field. This will put emphasis on the transport solution of the p...
