This paper presents an overview of the globalization process and its implications for international maritime distribution. Globalization is an imprecise term used to designate a way of looking at the world. It has no generally accepted definition; different commentators emphasize different aspects according to their individual predilections. Yet most are agreed that it represents a further stage in the evolution of international relations and, in particular, international business. Globalization is a break with the past, challenging accepted modes of thought and their translation into business practice. It is a post-modern phenomenon broadly characterized by, amongst other things, co-operation rather than competition, by flexible accumulation rather than centralized mass production, and by the compression of space and time. Networks, both conceptual and physical, play a key role in the globalization process by defining the relationships between individual elements such as producers, retailers, consumers etc and the flows of information and materials that pass among them. Hence ships, transportation and logistics are themselves also central to the process. This paper describes the process of globalization and goes on to consider the implications of the supply chain approach to international logistics and distribution for traditional maritime industry. 相似文献

Canada’s west coast has been a hotspot of environmental conflict, most recently in defense of climate action and natural places under threat by energy development. This study examined sense of place as a source of tension in conflicts sparked by two energy proposals. The Bute Inlet run-of-river hydroelectric project would power British Columbia’s remote Central Coast, and the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion would transport bitumen from Alberta’s oil sands to tankers for export. Surveys, interviews, and mapping were used to investigate the depth and character of participants’ sense of favorite places and places expected to be affected by the projects, with appreciation, concern, and responsibility for nature as organizing themes. We discovered a regional, nature-centric sense of place on the south coast, and a sense of place among Albertans linked to that province’s oil and gas economy and its reputation as Canada’s chief breadwinner. Ties to natural places were found to underpin environmental advocacy by tapping into deep place connections as well as place connections conveyed through network ideologies and the protests themselves. We outline for consideration key characteristics of a regional sense of place, and offer ways to mitigate place-based economy versus environment conflicts. 相似文献

This paper addresses the problem of misdeclaring container weights, which causes accidents on land and sea, with serious consequences. It reviews the current international law, and the verification of container weight mandated in the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) convention, and relates them to New Zealand law and practice as an example. It concludes that the SOLAS plan, simply written into local law, is unlikely to be enough by itself to fix the problem. It considers the points in the supply chain where responsibility could be placed for weighing and proposes a “chain of responsibility” approach with initial weighing by the shipper and check weighing later, especially at ports, with misdeclared containers being reportable as incidents. Such a system should deal comprehensively with the problem. 相似文献

This paper provides a summary of the objectives and principles which underpin the 2004 edition of the New Zealand earthquake design standard, AS/NZS 1170 Part 5. As with many modern earthquake design standards, the New Zealand earthquake design standard recognizes that earthquake resistant design that only addresses life safety goals without addressing both operational continuity of essential facilities and damage control, falls short of public expectations. Such standards not longer meet societal expectations. The paper outlines how these issues have been addressed within New Zealand, and some of the issues addressed when preparing appendices to the standard to provide guidance for materials standard writers to ensure consistency with the proposed approach. Recognizing the significance of non-structural components and parts of buildings in both damage control and operational continuity has been an important step forward in attaining the performance levels required. 相似文献

Pusher-barge systems were studied in nine different configurations. Captive model tests were performed at the Hiroshima University
Towing Tank and the hydrodynamic derivatives for the various configurations were obtained. At a service speed of 7 knots,
pusher-barge systems with the same number of barges but arranged in a row (shorter length overall but with a larger breadth)
require more power to operate than those that were arranged in a line. When the length overall increased, the tactical diameter,
advance, and transfer distances also increased, mainly due to the significant increase in the moment of inertia when barges
are arranged in a line, rather than in a row. All pusher-barge systems had small first and second overshoot angles. Pusher-barge
systems with the same number of barges had a longer response time to the rudder angle of attack and required a longer stopping
distance when arranged in a line, mainly due to the increased moment of inertia and reduced resistance when barges are arranged
in this way. 相似文献

This study offers a combined analysis of pedestrian exposure to noise and air pollution within a specific urban setting in Dublin, Ireland. The impact of a recent boardwalk development on reducing pedestrian exposure to air and noise pollution is examined while modelling experiments are undertaken to explore the possibility of achieving further reductions in pollutant exposure through better urban design and planning. The results show that the boardwalk has reduced pedestrian exposure to air and noise pollution and that further reductions may be achieved by more strict segregation of pedestrian and road traffic in urban areas. 相似文献

Unconventional arrangements of pusher-barge systems were studied in this paper. Pusher-barge systems consisting of 4, 6, and
8 barges with one pusher were tested in various combinations. Captive model testing was performed on the various combinations
at the Hiroshima University towing tank. Hydrodynamic derivatives of the systems were obtained from the model test data by
using the least-square analysis method. For asymmetric conditions, the hydrodynamic derivatives and N′ββ were added to the force and moment equations in order to obtain better fitting of the least-square curves. Motion equations
were modified to cover the asymmetric cases of pusher-barge systems with lateral force and yaw moment due to the asymmetry
arrangement. Turning simulations (with 20° sudden angle change) were carried out and a comparison of advance distance and
tactical diameter made.
