Deniz kazaları araştırmaları, kazalarda teknik, insani, operasyonel ve organizasyonel olmak üzere pek çok risk faktörünün önemli etkilere sahip olduğunu göstermektedir. Özellikle kritik öneme olan lokasyonlarda kazaların sonuçları ciddi hasarlara yıkıma neden olabilmektedir. Mevcut değerlendirmelerinde teknik güvenlik sistemlerine odaklanırken, patlama modellemesi çalışmaları büyük önem taşımak...

Abstract Cold ironing has the potential to reduce impact of ship exhausts in densely populated areas. However, especially for tankers, implementation this concept is almost non-existent. Still, these vessels have a relatively high port energy use, despite short visits, as they provide power both pumps and inert gas systems during unloading loading. A key factor reluctance, besides fact that spa...

The article proposes the improvement of adsorption and absorption plants for recovery naphtha vapors through use a sulfur compounds purification unit. This unit allows you to remove environmentally hazardous components from vapors, which adversely affect filters, without increasing temperature significant pressure drop gas-air mixture. relevance study is due fact that marine terminals are objec...

Combining methodologies from cybernetics and artificial intelligence (AI), we present a receding horizon genetic algorithm (RHGA) for solving the task of dynamic assignment and tracking of multiple targets. We demonstrate the capabilities of the algorithm by means of a case study on optimal positioning of tugs to reduce the risk of oil tanker drifting accidents along the northern Norwegian coas...

− In this paper we constructed the Decision Support System (DSS) for liquid cargo tankers based on the International Ship Management Code (ISM Code). To make this system, we first organized a base of expert knowledge concerning liquid tanker operations that largely affect ocean accidents. Based on this expert knowledge, we constructed the decision support system that provides a code of conduct ...

Under suitable assumptions, the nonlinear dynamics of surface gravity waves can be modeled by the one-dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Besides traveling wave solutions like solitons, this model admits also breather solutions that are now considered as prototypes of rogue waves in ocean. We propose a novel technique to study the interaction between waves and ships/structures during ex...

We propose structural models of investment for the econometric estimation of the real option markup. Count data models offer flexible specifications for bringing real option investment models to aggregate market data. The empirical results for oil tanker investment data are supportive for the proposed structural models, as well as the real option hypothesis. We find that the sensitivity of inve...
