Abstract This study investigates the hull girder’s ultimate strength of 17500 LTDW Oil Tanker. The explicit finite element analysis is carried out to estimate girder longitudinal numerical starts with analyses that examine ship’s structural response behavior due sagging and hogging bending moment load. were conducted determine maximum for withstanding operational Afterward, undertaken reflect p...

Objective-To determine if the oil spillage from the tanker Braer had any immediate health effects on the exposed resident population. Design-Cohort study with a comparison against controls, exposure status being assigned on the basis ofgeographical location. Setting-Rural Shetland. Subjects-All those resident on or after 5 January 1993 (day 0) within 4 5 km of the site of tanker's grounding. Co...

We consider a rich tanker trailer routing problem with stochastic transit times for chemicals and liquid bulk orders. A typical route of the tanker trailer comprises of sourcing a cleaned and prepped trailer from a pre-wash location, pickup and delivery of chemical orders, cleaning the tanker trailer at a post-wash location after order delivery and prepping for the next order. Unlike traditiona...

The optimisation of a non-linear control problem by Genetic Algorithm (GA) is studied in this paper. It involves the performance of a fully autonomous control system for regulating the course keeping manoeuvres of an oil tanker. This control system consists of an autopilot and a Sliding Mode Controller (SMC). The GA is used to optimise the performance of the complete system by optimising the pa...
