This study aims to identify and determine species diversity and richness of the Gastropods of the intertidal zone of Bushehr seaport coastal area and assess the ecological status of this area using Welch index. Sampling was carried out at 6 stations in Bushehr seaport in the winter and summer seasons during 2013-2014. Bed sediment sampling was done three times in each station and Gastropod samp...

The ability to simulate a seaport environment, including illicit cargo and the sensors designed to detect such cargo, allows the evaluation of alternative detection methods in order to improve security at our nation’s seaports. We describe our progress towards this goal. Specifically, we describe our modeling of threats at a particle emission level, modeling of sensors as particle detectors, mo...

Background: Sulfur dioxide is one of the important pollutants that at the present time cause irreparable damage to environment and human health. The aim of present study was to study and comparison the effects of SO2 on respiratory and cardiovascular deaths in Bushehr city. Materials and Methods: This analytical study was conducted in Bushehr city during 2011. In the first stage data were colle...

The seaport of Gioia Tauro is the largest transshipment terminal of the Mediterranean Sea. A crucial management task for the companies operating in the seaport is team building: the problem of properly allocating the available personnel for serving the incoming boats. Teams have to be carefully arranged in order to meet several constraints such as: availability of employees and their skills, co...

The aim of this work is to propose a (max, +) optimization model for scheduling transfer operations on a flow network within a given maintenance framework. The case study involves the scheduling of oil batch transfer operations in coordination with valve maintenance activities in an oil-exporting seaport. The optimum schedule is determined through an intuitive, and synthetized mathematical mode...
