The third and final section considers the future for maritime professional associations in the context of international shipping.     

PHC钢管组合桩在复杂地质条件港口中的应用

针对当前复杂地质条件下PHC管桩沉桩困难问题，以三亚某公务船码头工程为依托，结合PHC管桩和钢管桩的优点以及相关行业规范确定了PHC钢管组合桩的结构形式。针对PHC钢管组合桩的特点，从穿透较厚砂层角度出发，通过结构计算软件以及相关规范公式给出码头结构极限承载力状态，对结构计算、受力特性与桩基检测结果进行分析，提出桩基改进措施和沉桩控制条件，得出满足工程设计要求的PHC钢管组合桩。结果表明：该种PHC钢管组合桩方法满足桩基承载力及应变要求；PHC钢管组合桩在穿透较厚砂层的条件下技术可行、经济合理。     

A high order linear model for the prediction of internal lee waves at the main sill of the Strait of Gibraltar

A linear theory for the physical fields in the water column under the action of large amplitude internal lee waves at the main sill of the Strait of Gibraltar is developed. The procedure is a combination of the perturbation and normal modes methods in order to study steady resonant conditions. The lowest order linear approach of the methodology resumes the Taylor–Goldstein equation, which can reconstruct the main features of the observed fields but the high order approach gives the finest structure and sometimes the largest contributions. The role of the non-linear terms is investigated up to the second order taking into account the non-linear interactions between modes, leading to an effective reconstruction of the whole water column for the velocity field.

基于UML的C4ISR传感器动态处理模型仿真

现代军事仿真需要建立军事对抗活动中的各类模型，包括武器平台模型、作战模型以及决策模型等，传感器功能仿真模型在系统的开发和研制过程中具有重要意义。如何建立出有效的传感器处理模型来保证信息输入的可靠性和真实性是各类C^4ISR系统都面临的问题，使用统一建模语言（UML）对传感器处理模型进行可视化建模，首先使用用例图和顺序图对C^4ISR系统中2维或者3维传感器工作流程建模，然后使用活动图对整个处理流程和每个处理流程来描述问题的细节，为系统分析员、设计人员和开发人员提供了不同的分析问题、解决问题的视角，使从事C^4ISR系统传感器仿真研究的相关人员可以参考该文提出的模型进行软件开发。

Impact of information technology on public transport fares data

The work described was undertaken as part of the CASSIOPE project in the EC DRIVE programme. A range of fare collection procedures in public transport is described, and the importance of these for data collection by operators is stressed. It is suggested that such data management could be standardized and to this end four case studies were carried out in different European cities. Data models were built for each city, and these models are merged into a preliminary version of a generalized model. The need and uses for such a fare collection data model is explained.     

Mathematical Modelling of Vibrations and Loading of Railway Tanks Taking into Account the Liquid Cargo Mobility

Dynamics and loading of railway tank cars transporting liquid cargo are investigated. The approach based on the mechanical-pendulum analogy for the liquid cargo mobility simulation is proposed. Hydrodynamic parameters of the mechanical analogy are determined using the solution of the boundary-value problem for the liquid cargo vibrations in a cavity with the tank boiler shape. The fitting of the developed mathematical models is proved by comparison of calculated results and test data. Vibration characteristics and loading of tank-cars under their shunt collisions and motion along straight and curved track in trains are evaluated. It is shown that as a rule the liquid cargo mobility has an essential influence on tank dynamic properties.
