Selforganisation of Quasi-2D Flows in a Rectangular Container

open access: yes, 1998
Summary: This contribution describes a combined experimental-numerical study of decaying quasi-two-dimensional turbulent flows on a rectangular domain with no-slip boundaries. While decaying, the flow is found to organise in a domain-filling pattern of counter-rotating cells.

Container Flows and Empty Container Repositioning

2012
Abstract This chapter explains the impact containerisation has on the various partners of the global supply chain and the challenges companies encounter and the solutions they use in dealing with empty container repositioning. The phenomenon of imbalanced container flows and its impact on shipping lines, shippers ...

Mixing in the Stokes flow in a cylindrical container

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2002
Summary: Kinematic features of three-dimensional mixing by advection of passive particles in time-periodic flows are the primary subject of this study. A classification of periodic points, providing important information about the mixing properties of a flow, is presented, and the dynamics of the Poincaré map in the vicinity of periodic points is ...

A strategic network choice model for global container flows: specification, estimation and application

open access: yesJournal of Transport Geography, 2011
Container flows have been booming for decades. Expectations for the 21st century are less certain due to changes in climate and energy policy, increasing congestion and increased mobility of production factors.

Container flow schedule in a container seaport

Proceedings 2011 International Conference on Transportation, Mechanical, and Electrical Engineering (TMEE), 2011
It is very important to schedule container flows in a container seaport. Current paper aims to discuss the schedule issue of cranes to the handle containers, with an objective of optimizing crane scheduling and container flows in the yard subject to deterministic crane availability constraints. The problem is formulated as NP-hard problem and a revised

Preferential states of rotating turbulent flows in a square container with a step topography [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics of Fluids, 2013
The self-organization of confined, quasi-two-dimensional turbulent flows in a rotating square container with a step-like topography is investigated by means of laboratory experiments and numerical simulations based on a rigid lid, shallow-water ...

Vibration of Pipes Containing Flowing Fluids

Journal of Applied Mechanics, 1970
A numerical solution to the equation of motion that describes the behavior of an elastically supported pipe of infinite length conveying an ideal pressurized fluid has been developed, and a new interpretation of the effects produced by internal pressure forces is presented.

Managing the flow of containers in a multimodal network

2018 4th International Conference on Logistics Operations Management (GOL), 2018
In this paper, we first present the problem of managing the flow of containers in a multimodal network by specifying the objective and the different possible decisions. We also present some studies that are interested in this problem. Then, we briefly present our mathematical model and we explain the techniques of generation of instances on which we ...

Flow over a containment dyke

Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 1978
The wall of a large tank or reservoir breaks, sending fluid against a secondary containment dyke. The impact of the surging fluid against the safety barrier is studied. The results of theoretical analysis and numerical simulation (for vertical dykes) are in good agreement with experimental data concerning overflow and total spillage as well as the ...
