Voyage-based statistical fuel consumption models of ocean-going container ships in Korea

ABSTRACT

Accurately estimating fuel consumption of ships is crucial for shipping companies, port authorities, and environmental protection agencies. The bottom-up approach is becoming increasingly popular because it can estimate ship fuel consumption by accounting for ship activity conditions, such as changes in voyage speed, time, and distance; however, its use is still limited when estimating ship fuel consumption. Ship-specific information, such as the daily fuel consumption rate for main and auxiliary engines for every vessel, is expensive to gather, and generally not collected from private shipping companies. To address this research gap, we develop simplified and composite ship fuel consumption models for ocean-going container ships by size using a regression model. To estimate the fuel consumption models for container ships, we rely on ship activity data, including average speed and sailing time, distance, and actual fuel consumption for main and auxiliary engines. This information is obtained from a major container shipping company in Korea. We estimate and validate the parameters associated with fuel consumption for five different container ship sizes, all of which are smaller than the Post-Panamax container ship (15,000 TEU and above).     

Fluid-structure interaction and stress analysis of a floating wind turbine

In this paper, we describe a method to investigate the fluid-structure interaction of a floating wind turbine and to analyze the global deformations and the corresponding stresses with a detailed finite element model. To solve the fluid-structure interaction problem, a partitioned approach is chosen. The in-house C++ library comana, which was developed to solve multi-physic problems by coupling existing solvers, is extended to couple the fluid solver panMARE and the structural solver ANSYS. The significance of the interaction of structural deformations and the fluid loads is pointed out for the rotor of the wind turbine. In order to enable the use of a detailed finite element model in the fluid-structure interaction simulation, a model reduction method is applied in ANSYS. As a result, an efficient stress analysis can be performed under consideration of the fluid-structure interaction.

Performance analysis of single relay selection in cooperative communication over Nakagami-m fading channels

We derive closed-form expressions for outage probability and symbol error rate(SER) of opportunistic relaying(OR) and selection cooperation(SC).For the amplify-and-forward relay selection scheme,comparison between two selection strategies over independent non-identically distributed Nakagami-m fading channels via analytical and simulation results is given in terms of the outage probability and SER.Simulation results show that OR performs better than SC.

高表达瞬时电位受体通道1在大鼠弥漫性轴索损伤中的作用机制

目的研究瞬时电位受体通道1(TRPC1)在弥漫性轴索损伤(DAI)中的作用,探讨TRPC1在DAI后神经元钙超载及髓鞘变性中的机制。方法瞬间旋转损伤法建立大鼠DAI模型,用SKF96365干扰TRPC1通道活性后建立DAI干预组,Fura-2AM检测胞内Ca2+浓度,Western blot和免疫组化检测皮层TRPC1蛋白的动态表达,并与正常组、DMSO对照组相比较,电镜检测神经元及髓鞘改变,TUNEL检测皮层神经元凋亡。单因素方差分析数据。结果 DAI后皮层中TRPC1蛋白表达升高,在1d达到高峰,随后逐渐下降,同时皮层神经元胞内Ca2+浓度在1d达到峰值,髓鞘结构破坏。给予TRPC1通道阻断剂SKF96365后,皮层TRPC1蛋白表达被抑制,皮层神经元钙内流减低,髓鞘结构部分保留,神经功能评分改善。结论 DAI后TRPC1导致的钙超载是造成髓鞘变性及神经元死亡的重要原因,抑制TRPC1产生的钙内流可保护髓鞘结构完整,减轻神经元凋亡。
