A Simulation Model for a Hybrid‐Electric Craft in Restricted Waters
Journal of Advanced Transportation, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020 Sustainable mobility is one of the most challenging issues for passenger transport inside environmental protected areas and ecologically fragile environments. To reduce the pollutant emissions, the adoption of electric or hybrid‐electric solutions for crafts propulsion is a suitable option for green navigation.

THE SIMULATION OF SKEG EFFECT TO BARGE RESISTANCE CALCULATION USING CFD-RANS OPENFOAM
Wave, 2021 The paper discusses the significance of different types of skegs in a barge toward the pressure, fluid velocity and the ship total resistance. There are three kinds of skeg configurations: barge without skegs, skegs without deflection, and skegs with ...

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 35, Issue 1, February 2026.ABSTRACT Evening chronotype, characterised by a preference for later circadian timing, can present challenges in societal activities oriented towards morning schedules. This study investigates the link between chronotype and sleep, alertness, and internalising symptoms in middle‐aged and older adults. The sample comprised 652 healthy adults (ages 35–98)

Characterizing watercraft‐related mortality of sea turtles in Florida
The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 83, Issue 5, Page 1057-1072, July 2019., 2019 ABSTRACT Mortality from being struck by a motorized watercraft is considerable for many aquatic vertebrates around the world, including sea turtles. We studied stranded (i.e., dead, sick, or injured) sea turtles found in Florida, USA, during 1986–2014 and identified those with sharp force or blunt force injuries indicative of a vessel strike.

The Challenges of Being Left Behind: Peripheralisation in English Small Rural Towns
Sociologia Ruralis, Volume 66, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Rural small towns have long been viewed as places of retail and service provision for both their populations and people in surrounding rural hinterlands, although in many countries these roles are in decline, with these settlements increasingly viewed as ‘left behind places’ experiencing peripheralisation.

Mathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019 An approach was presented to improve the performance prediction of marine propeller through computational fluid dynamics (CFD). After a series of computations were conducted, it was found that the passage in the former study was too narrow, resulting in the unnecessary radial outer boundary effects.

Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 12, December 2025.Abstract Lake surface fluxes provide important information about the lake's thermal environment. To capture their spatial variations, a ship serves as an excellent platform for applying the eddy correlation (EC) method. Although ship‐based EC measurements have been conducted over the ocean, this has not been the case over lake surfaces.
