Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Better urban transport systems and the need for a healthier environment are continuous requirements that create a fertile atmosphere for original ideas, innovative approaches and applications of advanced technologies, their tests and evaluations in practice. Moreover, there is a growing need for integration with IT systems and applications to improve safety and efficiency. Meanwhile, the substantial growth of maritime shipping has resulted in large transported quantities around the world, creating a demand for innovative solutions for ports and fleets. The apparently parallel topics of Urban Transport and Maritime Transport meet in the transport and environmental management of coastal cities, both being affected positively and negatively by landslide and seaside traffic. Maritime Transport is highly interconnected with rail, road and air services, as well as inland waterways. Each of these must therefore operate complimentary of one another to maximise efficiency and respond rapidly to variable economic and political contingencies. The variety of topics covered in this volume reflects the complex interaction of transport systems with their environment and the need to establish integrated strategies. The goal is to arrive at optimal socio-economic solutions while reducing the negative environmental impacts of transportation systems typically by interdisciplinary approaches.

Download or read book Maritime Transportation written by Stein Haugen and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-15 with total page 673 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The environmental and human costs of marine accidents are high, and risks are considerable. At the same time, expectations from society for the safety of maritime transportation, like most other activities, increase continuously. To meet these expectations, systematic methods for understanding and managing the risks in a cost-efficient manner are needed. This book provides readers with an understanding of how to approach this problem. Firmly set within the context of the maritime industry, systematic methods for safety management and risk assessment are described. The legal framework and the risk picture within the maritime industry provide necessary context. Safety management is a continuous and wide-ranging process, with a set of methods and tools to support the process. The book provides guidance on how to approach safety management, with many examples from the maritime industry to illustrate practical use. This extensively revised new edition addresses the needs of students and professionals working in shipping management, ship design and naval architecture, and transport management, as well as safety management, insurance, and accident investigation.

Download or read book Switzerland s dependency on maritime transportation written by Leon Zacharias and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2021-03-08 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of maritime shipping for the Swiss economy is not reflected in official statistics of the Swiss Federal Customs Administration – high-sea vessels are not registered as a mode of transport for the import and export of goods to and from Switzerland. Thus, the primary study objective is to highlight the importance of high-sea shipping for the trade flows of the Swiss Confederation. Therefore, quantities and values of Switzerland’s maritime trade flows will be estimated differentiated by commodity groups and vessel types including trends in the maritime sector relevant for the Swiss Confederation. More than 90% of the total volume of intercontinental trade between Switzerland and its trading partners is carried by ocean-going vessels. High-sea shipping dependency is not to be reduced to intercontinental trade flows only. Due to upstream and downstream transport stages that are a directly part of a supply chain configuration, substantial proportions of continental foreign trade depend on high-sea shipping as well. Die Bedeutung der maritimen Schifffahrt für die Schweizer Volkswirtschaft spiegelt sich nicht in offiziellen Statistiken der Eidgenössischen Zollverwaltung – Hochseeschiffe werden nicht als Verkehrsträger für den Im- und Export von Waren in und aus der Schweiz registriert. Primäres Ziel der Studie ist es daher, die Bedeutung der Hochseeschifffahrt für die Handelsströme der Schweizerischen Eidgenossenschaft aufzuzeigen. Hierzu werden Mengen und Werte der maritimen Handelsströme der Schweiz differenziert nach Warengruppen und Schiffstypen abgeschätzt und relevante Trends im maritimen Sektor aufgezeigt. Im Interkontinentalhandel zwischen der Schweiz und ihren Handelspartnern werden mehr als 90% des Gesamttransportvolumens werden per Seeschiff abgewickelt. Die Abhängigkeit der Schweiz von der Hochseeschifffahrt ist nicht nur auf interkontinentale Handelsströme zu reduzieren. Aufgrund der vor- und nachgelagerten Transportstufen, die unmittelbar Teil einer Supply-Chain-Konfiguration sind, sind zudem erhebliche Anteile des kontinentalen Außenhandels von der Hochseeschifffahrt abhängig.

Book excerpt: This book is one of very few in the maritime literature that solely focus on the latest developments in information technology (IT) methodologies in this field. It provides the reader with a concise overview of how IT can truly improve the efficacy of operations in the maritime industry. It consists of seven chapters that address a range of topics related to the synergy between Computer Science and Maritime Science. Specifically, Chapters 1 and 2 explore two important problems in maritime logistics pertaining to quayside operational planning, while Chapters 3 and 4 focus on maritime routing methodologies. Chapters 5 and 6 present decision-making support systems for safe shipping and port security. Last, Chapter 7 presents simulation methodologies for modeling maritime traffic. The intended readership of the book spans both an academic audience and professionals in the areas of Operational Research, Transportation Science, and Maritime Science interested in applying IT methodologies in their areas of expertise.
