Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Effect of Vessel Speed on Fuel Consumption and Exhaust Gas EmissionsAyudhia P. Gusti, SeminHigh consumption of fuel and emissions from ships has brought a new perspective tospeed optimization of ship. The reducing in fuel consumption can provide higher savings on the total cost of the vessel. Some regulations on environmental issues have been designated by International Maritime Organization (IMO) and other bodies. This research is based on the development of speed optimization. With … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 25 Nov 2016 · 9,146 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModern Propulsions for Aerospace-Part IIRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Bilal Akash et al.Speaking about a new engine ionic means to speak about a new aircraft. The paper presents in a short time the actual engines ion chambers (called the ion thrusters) and other new ionic motors proposed by the authors. The engine (ionic propulsion unit of ions, that accelerates the positive ions through a potential difference) is approximately ten times more efficient … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 25 Apr 2017 · 8,118 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGreenhouse Gas Mitigation Strategies for Container Shipping IndustryLin Shimin, Wong Yiik DiewWith the onset of the first ever Greenhouse Gas (GHG) regulation for ships by the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) in 2011, the container shipping industry requires the combined use of technical and operational emissions reduction measures to improve the environmental performance of its vessels. Studies show that most existing measures are cost effective with a range of emissions reduction potential. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 14 Feb 2013 · 8,000 accessesView PDFCite
