基于SPSS分析大学英语四级证书与船员航海英语能力的关联性

在“马尼拉修正案”实施背景下，有些船公司在配备船员时，除了要求船员COC外，还要求大学英语四级（CET4）证书。基于SPSS分析CET4英语水平与船员航海英语应用能力之间的关联性，以探讨CET4证书是否能成为提高船员航海英语应用能力的有力措施，并提出其他解决方案。     

建立海上避难地的意义与现状

船舶在航行中可能发生船舶损害,需要沿岸国家提供合适的水域场所——避难地进行维修、后勤保障及人员医疗等安全的操作。文中总结提出了设置避难地的发展历程以及对海上船舶、人命和环境安全的保障作用;介绍了国际海事组织（IMO）和有关国家对建立海上避难地的观点;提出了选择避难地应该考虑的基本问题。     

Public Perception of Ocean Governance and Marine Resources Management in Taiwan

Understanding public perception of the oceans, and relationship between society and the sea is an important key to the sustainable management of marine resources. This research reports the first population-based survey on Taiwanese public knowledge, attitudes, and actions on marine-related issues. The stratified random sampling by county was completed with 1,120 telephone respondents from October to December 2010. More than 60% of the respondents have heard about global warming, sea-level rising, the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, the coral reef bleaching crisis, and Japan whaling fisheries. However, less than 20% of the respondents are aware of Taiwanese domestic marine policies, such as the Ocean White Paper. On resources conservation, 74.7% of the respondents support the bluefin tuna catches regulations and 76.6% agree that the shark fin fisheries will impact shark resources. Education and age are the major affecting variables for resource conservation and knowledge. Higher education and age 40–49 are most supportive of conservation measures. For marine recreational activities, 42.2% of the respondents can swim, and 44.2% of the respondents had not visited the beach in the previous year. The results suggest that the government could establish a specialized agency to strengthen its marine policy and take more actions to protect ocean environment and conserve marine resources. To encourage more Taiwanese to participate in ocean recreational activities, the government could build a safe facility for marine recreation, cooperate with the private sectors in education, and provide outreach to raise public awareness of the oceans.     

The Offshore Wind Power Debate: Views from Cape Cod

Wind power resources on the eastern U.S. continental shelf are estimated to be over 400 GW, several times the electricity used by U.S. eastern coastal states. The first U.S. developer proposes to build 130 large (40 story tall) wind turbines in Nantucket Sound, just outside Massachusetts state waters. These would provide 420 MW at market prices, enough electricity for most of Cape Cod. The project is opposed by a vigorous and well-financed coalition. Polling shows local public opinion on the project almost equally divided. This article draws on semistructured interviews with residents of Cape Cod to analyze values, beliefs, and logic of supporters and opponents. For example, one value found to lead to opposition is that the ocean is a special place that should be kept natural and free of human intrusion. One line of argument found to lead to support is: The war in Iraq is problematic, this war is “really” over petroleum, Cape Cod generates electricity from oil, therefore, the wind project would improve U.S. security. Based on analysis of the values and reasoning behind our interview data, we identify four issues that are relevant but not currently part of the debate.

基于感应滤波的电力推进船舶电网谐波抑制

为研究谐波抑制方法在电力推进船舶电网中的应用,提出了一种基于感应滤波方式,同时具有自耦补偿和谐波抑制作用的新型推进变压器结构。该变压器二次侧采用延边三角形接线,它将传统滤波和无功补偿装置移至绕组内部且公共绕组的等效短路漏电感为零设计,使船舶大功率变流设备在电能变换过程中产生的谐波源无法进入交流网侧,有效地抑制了谐波对船舶电网的污染。对比船舶电网传统滤波方法,对新型推进变压器的结构设计,滤波原理进行了介绍,并分别对基于新型和传统推进变压器的6相交直交推进方式船舶电力系统进行了SIMU-LINK仿真,仿真结果的电流波形和电流频谱验证了方案的正确性和可行性。
