Effect of Perforated Baffle Shapes on Sloshing Reduction in Prismatic Tanks Using SPH Analysis [PDF]

TransNav
Sloshing is a phenomenon that is nonlinear in a liquid carrier, such as LNG or a tanker ship. One type of LNG carrier is the membrane-type carrier. The membrane type is similar to a prismatic tank, whose shape is suitable for a ship.

Optimal Hedging Strategies in the Low‐Sulphur Bunker Fuel Landscape

European Financial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The IMO2020 regulation for the green transition in shipping turned the industry into using two compliant bunker fuels: very low‐sulphur fuel oil (VLSFO) and low‐sulphur marine gas oil (LSMGO). VLSFO futures contracts introduced in late 2019 and other energy‐related futures contracts indicate that the VLSFO contracts trading on the Singapore ...

Design of Independent Type-B LNG Fuel Tank: Comparative Study between Finite Element Analysis and International Guidance

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2018
In 2012, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) regulated the emissions of SOx and NOx by setting the emission control area and strengthened the regulations on ship building and operation. Because the environmental regulations have been reinforced,

Reliquefaction Technology for LNG Carrier

Journal of The Japan Institute of Marine Engineering, 2005
Unlike all cargo ships, liquefied natural gas (LNG) carriers have continued to use steam turbine propulsion plant despite more efficient diesel engine being available. This is because the gas that naturally evaporates from the cargo (called boil-off) is used as fuel for the steam turbines, and until recently there was no other use for it.

New knowledge about shock events that affected the L‐chondrite parent body from two heavily shocked L6 meteorite finds

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract We report new results from a study of shock‐related features in the L6 ordinary chondrites Northwest Africa (NWA) 4672 and NWA 12841. Our observations confirm the occurrence of eight high‐pressure (HP) minerals in each meteorite, namely, ringwoodite, majorite, akimotoite, wadsleyite, albitic jadeite, lingunite, tuite, and xieite.

Association of Water, Sanitation, Hygiene and Animal Ownership With Relapse to Acute Malnutrition Among Children Aged 6–59 Months in Mali, South Sudan and Somalia: A Multi‐Site Prospective Cohort Study

Maternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.
Relapse rates post‐SAM treatment varied: 32% in Mali, 63% in South Sudan, 21% in Somalia. Diverse WASH and animal ownership factors were linked to relapse risk, differing by context. Some WASH conditions increased risk, whereas animal ownership was protective in Mali and South Sudan. No significant associations emerged in Somalia.
