U.S.ECONOMY REBOUND EXPECTED LATE THIS YEAR----An outlook of US economic slowdown

As an old Chinese saying goes, there is not any ever-lasting banquet under heavens, we could not anticipate an ever-booming U. S. economy. After longtime of robust development, the world's largest economic power, the United States is now suffering from a severe economic slowdown. The gross domestic product(GDP) of the United States contributes almost one-third of the total GDP value of the whole world, the U. S. economic slowdown will drag the growth pace of the world's economy this year. It is not exaggerated to say that "When Uncle Sam catches cold, the     

Opening Address of Annual Meeting 2000 of World Economic Forum

We are all here together for the first global Summit of the 21st century —a global gathering bringing together political, business, intellectual and civic leaders to define the new beginnings and to make a positive contribution. "New beginnings: making a difference" is, as you know, the theme of our Annual Meeting. There is one striking feature that differentiates this year's Annual Meeting from the last ones: at this particular moment, we are not confronted with any overwhelming crisis. You will recall that in 1999 we were deeply worried about the global economic outlook; and two years ago, it was the Asian crisis which was at the centre of our attention. This year, witlhout such a crisis preoccupying our minds, we have even more reasons to look at the truly important fundamental, long-term challenges of our world at the beginning of the new millennium.

ECONOMIC GRWTH COMING FROM FLEXIBLE POLIY

Through analyzing economic per formance in the past three quar ters and made predictions on economic prospects through next year, we come to find that China's economy will significantly outperform last year if the government sticks to a flexible economic policy. China's gross domestic product(GDP) should climb 7. 8 per cent or even higher this year unless there is serious catastrophe or global political and economic turmoil.     

Review and pros-pects ofr China''''s economy

The Chinese economy grew 8 per cent in 2002. The speedy growth of China's economy in 2002 was fuelled by booming exports and the central government efforts to stimulate domestic demand. Preliminary figures from the National Bureau of Statistics suggest that the country's gross domestic product (GDP) reached 10.2 trillion yuan (US$1.23 trillion) in 2002, an increase of 8 per cent from the previous year. 2002 is a year for which we have a whole host of things to rejoice over, to remember, and to toast. The momentous 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, which selected a new leadership for our country, was the biggest event on China's     

利用AGM求解粘弹性地基刚性梁的非线性控制微分方程（英文）

In the present paper a vibrational differential equation governing on a rigid beam on viscoelastic foundation has been investigated. The nonlinear differential equation governing on this vibrating system is solved by a simple and innovative approach, which has been called Akbari-Ganji’s method(AGM). AGM is a very suitable computational process and is usable for solving various nonlinear differential equations. Moreover, using AGM which solving a set of algebraic equations, complicated nonlinear equations can easily be solved without any mathematical operations.Also, the damping ratio and energy lost per cycle for three cycles have been investigated. Furthermore, comparisons have been made between the obtained results by numerical method(Runk45) and AGM. Results showed the high accuracy of AGM. The results also showed that by increasing the amount of initial amplitude of vibration(A), the value of damping ratio will be increased, and the energy lost per cycle decreases by increasing the number of cycle. It is concluded that AGM is a reliable and precise approach for solving differential equations. On the other hand, it is better to say that AGM is able to solve linear and nonlinear differential equations directly in most of the situations. This means that the final solution can be obtained without any dimensionless procedure.Therefore, AGM can be considered as a significant progress in nonlinear sciences.     

一种用于船舶汽轮机的安全且经济的启动加速概念（英文）

This paper analyses the issue of accelerated start-up of a marine steam turbine, which is an important problem because the start-up of a steam machine involves the combustion of fuel that is not transformed into useful energy. To find novel technologies that offer improvements in this aspect is essential due to restrictions on reducing ship emissions. Thus, the shorter the start-up time, the better for the environment and economy. High-pressure(HP) part of the turbine originally located on the Q...     

Ocean planning focuses on scientific and technological innovations

With the advent of the 21st century,human beings have entered into a new era of large-scale ocean development. All competitions in terms of oceans are essentially competitions in science and technology,whatever the purpose is,either political or economic or military. Developing oceanic science and technology,especially high technology of oceans,has become an essential part of the world's new technologi-cal revolution. In the 11th Five-Year Plan period,China will take scientific develop-ment as the key instrument to develop our oceanic undertakings and use the inno-vative ability as the strategic base of science and technology development. In this context,innovation and re-innovation will become the central links in adjusting the oceanic industry structure and transforming the growth mode of oceanic economy.     

ABSTRACTS

For the shipping industry and related industries, this round of comprehensive reform means： first, in terms of China＇s economic internal, it will appear geographical major restructuring. China＇s economy urbanization in fact is accelerating. This round of urbanization is largely driven by folk and people choose their own, not the government plan. So there may be some unexpected area between the back of the plates of the size of the economy. The author urges people to study more geographical layout and be sure to walk one step first than actually occurs. Secondly, the acceleration of this round will lead to the change of industry adjustment. People often talk of industrial structure adjustment, a lot of excess capacity is to quit. This round of reform will be accelerated, because the emphasis of this round of reform is to let the market play a role and greatly reduce the government＇s approval. Now the state council greatly reduces the government＇s approval, especially of private investment. If private investors to invest, they will     

海水管道控制阀中与旁路阀门相关的挑战（英文）

Modern processing plants use a variety of control loop networks to deliver a finished product to the market. Such control loops,like control valves, are designed to keep process variables such as pressure, temperature, speed, flow, etc. within the appropriate operating range and to ensure a quality product is produced. All control valves have a bypass so that production can proceed if maintenance is needed for the control valve as part of the control loop. The important point is that in both operation and maintenance situations, the bypass valve and the control valve should have approximately the same flow capacity to provide nearly the same amount of pressure. This paper presents a case study in seawater service on the selection of manual bypass valves for a 16″ control valve in class 150 and titanium material. A 16″ butterfly valve of class 150 was chosen for the control valve bypass, which provided a much higher flow capacity than the control valve. In this paper, four solutions are recommended to achieve the same coefficient value(Cv) for the control and bypass valve. Using the reduced size butterfly valve could be the cheapest and best solution. On the other hand, selecting the same control valve for bypass line is the most expensive but maybe the most reliable solution. Using a flow orifice for throttling could be ranked as the second expensive option and the second reliable one. Selection of butterfly valve for throttling is the second cheapest option, but it has the least reliability. Different parameters such as space and weight saving, cost as well as reliability have been considered in evaluation of different solutions.     

China draws the blueprint of strong shipbuilding country

On August 30 to 31st 2007, Mr. Jin Zhuanglong vice minister of COSTIND on the national shipbuilding work meeting clearly put forward that we should speed up our efforts to promote the strategic transformation of shipbuilding industry, and change our development objective from a large to a strong shipbuilding country. Before this, to fully carry out the "medium and long term development program for shipbuilding industry" and "the eleventh five-year program of shipbuilding development", the COSTIND successively issued the "eleventh five-year development program of ship’ s science and technology", the "eleventh five-year development program of marine equipment industry" and the "action plan of fully establishing modern shipbuilding mode (2006-2010)", which all mapped out the blueprint for making a strong shipbuilding country. In the next f ive to ten years, Chinese shipbuilding industry will sprint toward the shipbuilding power, keeping in mind the following objectives.     

Local scour at submarine pipelines

The rapid development of offshore oilfields has increased the number of submarine pipelines being constructed for the transport of crude oil to onshore refineries.Interactions between the pipeline and an erodible bed under the influence of current and waves often lead to local scouring around the structure.When this occurs, the pipeline may be suspended on the seabed resulting in the formation of a span.If the free span is long enough, the pipe may experience resonant flow-induced oscillations,leading to structural failure.This study examines the complex flow-structure-sediment interaction leading to the development of local scour holes around submarine pipelines.It reviews published literature in this area,which primarily is confined to the development of 2- dimensional scour holes.Despite the abundance of such research studies,pipeline-scour in the field essentially is 3-dimensional in nature.Hence,most of these studies have overlooked the importance of the transverse dimension of the scour hole,while emphasizing on its vertical dimension.This clearly is an issue that must be re-examined in light of the potential hazard and environmental disaster that one faces in the event of a pipeline failure.Recent studies have begun to recognize this shortcoming,and attempts have been made to overcome the deficiency.The study presents the state-of-the-art knowledge on local scour at submarine pipelines,both from a 2-dimensional as well as the 3-dimensional perspective.     

Water resources development in Turkey

The Southeastern Anatolia Projec(tGAP),one of the most important projects for developing remarkable natural resources of the world,is accepted as a change for getting benefit from rich water and agricultural resources of the Southeastern Anatolia Region.The GAP Project has been considered as a regional development projects through years,but the dimensions of sustainability,protection of environment and participatory have been attached to the master of the project in recent years.When the GAP Project is completed,the Upper Mesopotomia, the centers of many civilisation,will re-again its importance as it had in the ancient times,and will be alive a center of civilisation.Moreover,when the problem of water shortage and water supplies in the world for the future is kept in mind,the importance of Southeastern Anatolia′s water supplies will be doubled.For this reason,the GAP Project,developed by depending on water and natural resources of the region,will have an important place in the world.The aim of this study is to introduce the region with rich natural resources and the GAP Project.For this reason,firstly,the natural potential of the region will be introduced.Second,the GAP Project will be presented in details.In the third stage,the projects being processed for protecting the natural sources and environment will be analyzed.In the last stage,strategies and policies to develop and to protect the natural resources of the region in short,mid,and long terms will be proposed.     

The use of hydrogen as a fuel for inland waterway units

Escalating apprehension about the harmful effects of widespread use of conventional fossil fuels in the marine field and in internal combustion engines in general, has led to a vast amount of efforts and the directing of large capital investment towards research and development of sustainable alternative energy sources. One of the most promising and abundant of these sources is hydrogen. Firstly, the use of current fossil fuels is. discussed focusing on the emissions and economic sides to emphasize the need for a new, cleaner and renewable fuel with particular reference to hydrogen as a suitable possible alternative. Hydrogen properties, production and storage methods are then reviewed along with its suitability from the economical point of view. Finally, a cost analysis for the use of hydrogen in internal combustion engines is carried out to illustrate the benefits of its use as a replacement for diesel. The outcome of this cost analysis shows that 98% of the capital expenditure is consumed by the equipment, and 68.3% of the total cost of the equipment is spent on the solar photovoltaic cells. The hydrogen plant is classified as a large investment project because of its high initial cost which is about 1 billion US$; but this is justified because hydrogen is produced in a totally green way. When hydrogen is used as a fuel, no harmful emissions are obtained.

The choice of speed and clearance for RAS on 3D method

In this paper, a 3D source distribution technique is used to calculate the coupled motions between two ships which advance in the wave with the same speed. The numerical results of coupled motions for a frigate and a supply ship have a good agreement with the experimental results. Based on the 3D coupled motions of two ships, a spectral analysis is employed to clearly observe the effect of speed, clearance and wave heading on the significant relative motion amplitude (SRMA) of two ships.The method presented in this paper will be helpful to select suitable clearance, speed and wave heading for underway replenishment at sea(RAS).
