This paper brings a preliminary viewpoint on the interface between port cities, urban regions and their transportation systems in the particular context of Singapore. The development of the regional Singaporian transactional space includes the province of Johor in Malaysia and the Riau islands in Indonesia. The resulting spatial pattern and linkages form an Extended Metropolitan Region (EMR). W...

With the general awareness of energy and environmental issues in whole society, issue greenhouse gas emission reduction has gradually become focus attention. Ocean transport undertakes more than 90% world's cargo transportation also produces a large amount carbon dioxide. In order to achieve shipping industry, June 2012, ECOFIN proposed impose Maritime Carbon Tax, which will increase operating ...

Climate change is one of the greatest environmental, economic, and social challenges of our time. Urban transportation has had a major negative impact on our environment—most of our air pollution comes from transport. This paper explores ways to move toward a more sustainable transport system by focusing on creating a more efficient and livable city and improving the environmental efficiency of...

The lithium battery energy storage system (LBESS) has been rapidly developed and applied in engineering recent years. Maritime transportation the advantages of large volume, low cost, less consumption, which is main mode for importing exporting LBESS; nevertheless, a fire accident leading type process LBESS. This paper fault tree analysis Bayesian network methods to evaluate risk LBESS maritime...

Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) are the most prominent enabling network technology for Intelligent Transportation Systems(ITS).VANETs provides many new exciting applications and opportunities albeit transportation safety and facilitation applications are their core drivers. Security of vehicular networks remains the most significant concern in VANETs deployment – because it is mandatory to a...

The coronavirus which emerged in December 2019 has affected the health of people and whole world’s social working life. This pandemic impressed not only people’s life but also world economy especially maritime trade. International organizations authorities such as World Health Organization (WHO) Maritime (IMO) have taken several measures responses to mitigate impact Covid-19 on industry. Taking...

In this paper, some practical solid transportation models are formulated considering per trip capacity of each type of conveyances with crisp and rough unit transportation costs. This is applicable for the system in which full vehicles, e.g. trucks, rail coaches are to be booked for transportation of products so that transportation cost is determined on the full of the conveyances. The models w...
