Network dynamics in container transport by barge

open access: yesBelgeo, 2004
In a time span of twenty years, container transport by barge has acquired a significant share in the hinterland modal split for containers of the load centres Rotterdam and Antwerp. In other European load centres, barge container transport as yet plays a

Motion Control System Design for Barge-Type Surface Ships Using Tugboats

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Barge ships are designed to transport and assemble heavy and massive pieces of equipment at sea. Active propulsion systems are not installed in this type of ship, so the desirable motion and positioning of these ships can only be achieved with the ...

Mechanical Mechanism and Dynamic Characteristics of Barge–Whole Bridge Collision Behaviours

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Collision between a moving ship and a bridge in inner rivers is a frequent occurrence that seriously endanger the safety of the bridge. Existing studies mostly address the action of a ship colliding with a bridge pier that is used as a substitution of ...

Maximal equicontinuous factors and cohomology for tiling spaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We study the homomorphism induced on cohomology by the maximal equicontinuous factor map of a tiling space. We will see that this map is injective in degree one and has torsion free cokernel.

Performance Analysis on the Use of Oscillating Water Column in Barge-Based Floating Offshore Wind Turbines

open access: yesMathematics, 2021
Undesired motions in Floating Offshore Wind Turbines (FOWT) lead to reduction of system efficiency, the system’s lifespan, wind and wave energy mitigation and increment of stress on the system and maintenance costs.

Firm R&D units and outsourcing partners: A matching story [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present a theory that examines the optimal match between firm R&D units and external partners for projects that involve problem solving. We have a firm selecting an external partner conditional on the learning costs of its internal R&D unit.

Insight into Hydrodynamic Damping of a Segmented Barge Using Numerical Free-Decay Tests

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Natural vibrations of a segmented and a monohull barge are analysed to compare influences of hydrodynamic damping on the dynamic responses of two different models.
