Do Politically Motivated Import Bans Leave Lasting Scars? Evidence From Australian–Chinese Beef Trade

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In May 2020, China abruptly suspended imports from several major Australian beef processors, escalating a diplomatic dispute between the two countries. This trade measure disrupted one of the largest beef export relationships in the world almost overnight.

Development of DC Inverter Scroll Compressor used for Marine Container Refrigeration Unit

open access: yes, 2012
In recent years, energy saving of a container ship is becoming one of the most important issues from the point of environmental protection of the global marine transportation business. To solve this problem, we have developed a new gas injection inverter

Prediction of shallow water resistance for a new ship model using CFD simulation: Case study container barge

open access: yes, 2019
The importance of ship hydrodynamic parameters has increased since the advent of power-driven vessels in the 19th century. The required power for the propulsion unit depends on the ship resistance and speed.

When the River Runs Low: Heterogeneous Impacts of Transportation Disruptions on Local Grain Basis

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A substantial share of U.S. soybean and corn exports from the Midwest moves by barge along the Mississippi River system to export terminals in the Louisiana Gulf. Transportation costs between Midwestern grain elevators and export terminals create a wedge between prices at these locations, and shocks to these costs are partially passed on to ...

Analysis on the hull girder ultimate strength of a bulk carrier using simplified method based on an incremental-iterative approach

open access: yes, 2008
The hull girder ultimate strength of a typical bulk carrier is analyzed using a simplified method based on an incremental-iterative approach. First, vertical bending moment is examined by seven different methods.

Reconfiguring Fresh Produce Supply Chains in Response to Drought Risk: Evidence From the U.S. Broccoli Market

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought is among the most severe and persistent threats to food supply chains, and relocating production to less drought‐prone regions offers a strategy to reduce this risk. This is particularly relevant for fresh vegetables, which are highly water‐intensive, yet drought‐driven reconfiguration strategies remain understudied.

A Simulation based model for the berth allocation and quay crane assignment problem

open access: yes
With the global development of container transport, container terminals have become important nodes in transport networks which serve as hubs for the transshipment of containerized goods from ship to ship or from ship to other transport modes.

Particle Emissions from Ship Engines: Emission Properties and Transformation in the Marine Boundary Layer

open access: yes, 2006
In the framework of a combined effort ship emission studies were conducted in 2004 as part of the European Integrated Project HERCULES . Detailed aerosol microphysics and chemistry was measured in the exhaust gas of a single-cylinder test bed engine ...

Dynamic analysis of floating quay and container ship for container loading and offloading operation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A floating quay container terminal is used for loading or unloading from container ships from both sides of a floating quay. The side-by-side Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) offloading operation from floating terminals to LNG carriers is very similar to that

Automatic Determination of Quasicrystalline Patterns from Microscopy Images

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
This work introduces a user‐friendly machine learning tool to automatically extract and visualize quasicrystalline tiling patterns from atomically resolved microscopy images. It uses feature clustering, nearest‐neighbor analysis, and support vector machines. The method is broadly applicable to various quasicrystalline systems and is released as part of
