Energy efficiency and operational safety practices on ships have gained more importance due to the rules set by International Maritime Organization in recent years. While approximately 70% of fuel consumed a commercial ship is utilized for propulsion load, significant portion remaining auxiliary generators responsible ship’s onboard load. It crucial comprehend impact electrical load generators,...

The paper addresses various design aspects of survivability for surface naval and merchant ships through a common rational probabilistic methodology. It is based on earlier work of Kurt Wendel on a probabilistic approach to the damage stability of surface ships. This method was adopted by SOLAS 1974 through Res. A.265 (VIII) as an alternative to the deterministic SOLAS criteria for passenger sh...

The choice of roll stabilization system is critical for many types of ships. For warships where operational activities are fast and the concept of time is very effective, determining the most appropriate of these systems is of particular importance. Some operations, such as the landing of the helicopter on board, are critical for naval ships. Unwanted rolling motion makes this difficult. In add...

CO2 capture and storage (CCS) is an important strategy to reduce global emissions. This work presents both cutting-edge carbon tanker design, as well novel reliability method making possible extract useful information about the lifespan distribution of systems from their recorded time history. The outlined may be applied on more complex sustainable that are exposed environmental stresses throug...

Input efterlyses: Skal DFFU som forening i langt højere grad blande os samfundsbatten og den aktuelle politiske dagsorden – bliver REVYs mange gode artikler læst?

Mobile water supply vehicles, known as tankers or tenders, are widely used to transport water to areas beyond a water supply system or where the water supply is inadequate. Incidents in­ volving motor vehicles account for approximately 20% of U.S. fire fighter deaths each year; cases involving tankers are the most prevalent of these motor vehicle incidents. During 1977–1999, 73 deaths occurred ...

BACKGROUND Despite international notification requirements, the magnitude of disease transmission on board ships remains undetermined. This case series aims to exemplify that varicella aboard ships is a topic of interest for maritime medicine and of public health significance. MATERIAL AND METHODS Systematic presentation of cases of chickenpox reported to the Hamburg Port Health Authority bet...
