Digital twin modeling of refrigerated warehouses
(Federación de Asociaciones de Ingenieros Industriales de España, 2023-05)[Abstract]: Energy optimization in cold food storage processes is a complex issue, as many variables have to be taken into consideration, according to the nature of the food to be stored. In addition, energy optimization ... -
Effect of climate change on outdoor termal comfort in humid climates
(Springer, 2014)[Abstract] Background: Galicia, in northwest Spain, experiences warm summers and winters. However, the higher relative humidity that prevails the whole year through and the location of the summer hot points are related ... -
Empowering CO2Eco-Refrigeration With Colossal Breathing-Caloric-Like Effects in MOF-508b
(Wiley, 2024)[Abstract] Today,≈20% of the electric consumption is devoted to refrigeration; while,≈50% of the final energy is dedicated to heating applications. In this scenario,many cooling devices and heat-pumps are transitioning ... -
Energy Efficiency and Environmental Measures for Floating Storage Regasification Units
(Elsevier, 2021-09-30)[Abstract] In view of the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the maritime sector, this paper proposes design and operation indicators for the assessment of Floating Storage Regasification Unit (FSRU) energy ... -
Energy Efficiency Operational Indicator Resilient, Ship Emissions under Control
(MDPI, 2024)[Abstract] Maritime transport is the most widely used means of transporting goods, and forecasts indicate that it will continue to grow in the coming years, which is why the IMO is regulating energy efficiency and emissions ... -
Energy, exergy, economic and environmental analysis of a regasification system integrating simple ORC and LNG open power cycle in floating storage regasification units
(University of Zagreb, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture, 2023)[Abstract] A thermodynamic, economic and environmental analysis of a regasification system including a simple Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) and an Open Organic Rankine Cycle (OC) to utilise the liquefied natural gas (LNG) ... -
Exploitation of Liquefied Natural Gas Cold Energy in Floating Storage Regasification Units
(University of Zagreb, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture, 2021)[Abstract] This paper aims to review regasification technology installed in Floating Storage Regasification Units (FSRUs) and the potential offered by the exploitation of cold energy from liquefied natural gas (LNG) in ... -
Fatigue due to on board work conditions in merchant vessels
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. Departament de Ciència i Enginyeria Nàutiques, 2020)[Abstract] Several publications point to the human error like the fundamental cause of the practical whole of the accidents. Inside these accidents, the fatigue has been identified like a recurrent cause, already was as ... -

Noise Exposure and Mitigation on High-Speed Craft: Assessing Acoustic Environment and Regulatory Compliance
(MDPI, 2024)[Abstract] High-speed craft (HSC) present unique challenges regarding on-board noise levels, affecting crew safety, comfort, and operational efficiency. This study investigates noise exposure and mitigation strategies ... -
Novel Modeling for the Calculation of the Center of Lateral Resistance Position of Different Ships Making Use of a Full Mission Bridge Simulator and AI Tools
(MDPI, 2024)[Abstract] Ship maneuvering in ports is increasingly reduced because the increase in ship size is not proportional to the increase in port areas. Furthermore, the number of assisted vessels and the need for tugboats working ... -
On board LNG reliquefaction technology: a comparative study
(Walter de Gruyter, 2014)[Abstract] Reliquefaction technologies are being currently applied on board liquefied natural gas (LNG) carriers on the basis of economic criteria and energy efficiency. A variety of reliquefaction techniques have been ... -
Reducing the carbon footprint of LNG shipping: Implementation of a combined waste heat recovery system in the onboard incinerator for lower environmental impact
(Elsevier, 2025)[Abstract] The shipping industry is committed to reducing CO₂ emissions by at least 40 % by 2030. Liquefied Natural Gas tankers play a critical role in achieving this target; however, these vessels typically rely on ... -
