The Economics of Shipping in Polar Seas [PDF]
This paper describes the background and analyzes the economic structure of that part of the shipping industry engaged in transporting cargo in ice-infested waters. The polar trade is a small sector of the ocean transportation market and a relatively recent development as a distinct service, though ice-strengthend ships and icebreakers have been in ...

Packaging of Macroscopic Material Payloads: Needs, Challenges, Concepts, and Future Directions
This review introduces a unified framework that decomposes any macroscopic packaging system into the payload, packaging material, and packaging strategy and combines them into a conceptual packaging equation: packaging strategy = payload + packaging material.

A note on an integral associated with the Kelvin ship-wave pattern [PDF]
The velocity potential in the Kelvin ship-wave source can be partly expressed in terms of space derivatives of the single integral F(x, ρ, α) = ʃ ∞ −∞ exp [−1/2ρ cosh(2u − iα)] cos(x cosh u) du, where (x, ρ, α) are cylindrical polar coordinates with ...

4D‐Printed Magneto‐Plasmonic Microrobots for Programmable Spatiotemporal De‐Icing
A 4D‐printing strategy is introduced to achieve programmable de‐icing devices. By aligning gold–magnetite nanofillers within a photosensitive resin, the printed structures exhibit dual magnetic and plasmonic functionalities, enabling precise spatio‐temporal ice removal through thermoplasmonic effects.
