Abstract Although the International Maritime Organization (IMO) introduced energy efficiency requirements for ships more than a decade ago, to date, inland navigation has not been affected by corresponding regulations at all. Therefore, waterway vessels are left with no mandatory that could push their technology into efficient design. Fortunately, there certain pioneering attempts define criter...

Abstract Several research and innovation initiatives have been pursued worldwide for the development of autonomous unmanned ships. However, these ships’ wider adoption is limited by existing regulatory framework, which presently does not provide clear guidelines requirements design operation The aim this study to comprehensively analyse maritime safety security framework including national inte...

abstract shah jahan, based on structural zone is located in south of kapedagh and in eastern side of aladagh mountains in 37◦ till 37◦25' northern latitude and 57◦30' till 58◦30' eastern longitude of northeastern part of iran. geomorphologic and tectonic elements show that this area is partly young and mountains can be affected highly by geomorphologic and hydrologic elem...

A male specimen of Tripedalia cystophora (Cubozoa: Tripedaliidae) was collected from Lake Wyman, Boca Raton, Florida, USA. This is the first report of this species from the continental United States and brings the total known number of cubozoan species living in this region to four. Lake Wyman is a natural lagoon/estuary ecosystem which is part of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway. The box jel...

This paper is presentation of the development of advanced approach for modeling and structural analysis of jib structure which is usually part of waterway bucket dredgers. Object of analysis is a jib structure which will be reconstructed for the excavation of grain material from a river bed. Main goal of paper is to proof benefi ts of enough sophisticated i.e. “optimal” FEM model for structural...

With the continuous development worldwide of the inland shipping industry, emissions to the atmosphere have become a serious threat in terms of pollution. Hybrid power technology is an important means for reducing pollution due to emissions from ships. This paper considers a power train series in a hybrid electric inland waterway boat. From the analysis of the structure and principle of the pow...

The Role of the Danube River in Trans-European Waterway Network
 In 20th century, Region was subject to numerous and far-reaching political transformations, which had a negative impact on expansion waterway transport, affected mainly by political, economical military crises that took place 1990s. Nowadays, only 9% all river cargo is shipped via River. European Union makes an effort increas...
