Methodological Design Optimization of a Marine LNG Internal Combustion Gas Engine to Burn Alternative Fuels
(MDPI, 2023)[Abstract] Marine emission policies are becoming more demanding; thus, ship propulsion and power generation technologies need to be adapted to current scenarios. LNG is already considered to be a transition fuel, and new ... -
New Climatic Indicators for Improving Urban Sprawl: A Case Study of Tehran City
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2013)In the modern world, the fine balance and delicate relationship between human society and the environment in which we exist has been affected by the phenomena of urbanisation and urban development. Today, various environmental ... -
New Tendencies in Wind Energy Operation and Maintenance
(MDPI, 2021)[Abstract] Both the reduction in operating and maintenance (O&M) costs and improved reliability have become top priorities in wind turbine maintenance strategies. O&M costs typically account for 20% to 25% of the total ... -
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 ... -
Optimization of Ship’s Navigational Parameters to Improve the Stowage and Securing Criteria of Non-Standardized Cargo in Ships
(MDPI, 2023)[Abstract] General cargo ships are the most numerous in the merchant fleet. In these vessels, the stowage and securing of non-standardized cargo must be designed prior to being shipped. Furthermore, during sea navigation, ... -
Photovoltaic Power Prediction Using Artificial Neural Networks and Numerical Weather Data
(MDPI, 2020)[Abstract] The monitoring of power generation installations is key for modelling and predicting their future behaviour. Many renewable energy generation systems, such as photovoltaic panels and wind turbines, strongly ... -
Prediction of daily global solar radiation and air temperature using six machine learning algorithms; a case of 27 European countries
(Elsevier, 2022)[Abstract] The prediction of global solar radiation in a region is of great importance as it provides investors and politicians with more detailed knowledge about the solar resource of that region, which can be very ... -
Primary conversion in non-resonant wave energy converter with floating buoy
(Universidad de Catabria, Spanish Society of Maritime Research (SEECMAR), 2019)[Abstract] This paper studies one of the technical problems that occur in the process of moving from ”waves toelectricity” in floating wave buoys converters located near the coast: to maximize the product force bydisplacement. ... -
Proposal of a New Control System Making Use of AI Tools to Predict a Ship’s Behaviour When Approaching the Synchronism Phenomenon
(MDPI, 2024)[Abstract] In spite of the IMO’s efforts to improve the safety of intact stability on ships, synchronous rolling still causes large rolling angles, resulting in a very dangerous situation on board. The implementation of ... -
Proposal of Optimal Operation in Ship Rolling Motion Considering Sea State Conditions
(MDPI, 2022)[Abstract] Most of the research on ship rolling motion concerns a specific type of ship, such as containerships, or analyzes sailing during certain wave characteristics, rather than the full spectrum of waves that can be ... -
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 ... -
Relevance of Communicative, Team Effectiveness, and Long-Range Planning Skills in Vessel Crewmembers
(Gate Association for Teaching and Education (GATE), 2023)[Abstract] In recent years, soft skills have become increasingly important in many areas of the labor market and in the training of higher education students. This paper explores the perception that different crewmembers ... -
Research on an Internal Combustion Engine With an Injected Pre-chamber to Operate With Low Methane Number Fuels for Future Gas Flaring Reduction
(Elsevier, 2022)[Abstract] Flaring gas is the action of burning waste crude natural gas that is not possible to process or sell during the extraction and processing of oil and gas extraction. However, the surge of the oil and gas (O&G) ... -
Research on the Improvement of Safety Navigation Based on the Shipmaster’s Control of Ship Navigational Parameters When Sailing in Different Sea State Conditions
(MDPI, 2023)[Abstract] Shipmasters must make several quick decisions with respect to the ship’s speed and heading when new sea conditions approach. The implications for ship stability and risky situations are known but there are no ... -
Research on the new combustion chamber design to operate with low methane number fuels in an internal combustion engine with pre-chamber
(Elsevier, 2023)[Abstract] Gas flaring is the burning process of unwanted raw natural gas (NG) that cannot be processed during the oil and gas extraction and process operations. This research work aims to continue with the experimental ... -
Research skills R+D+I and industry 4.0, STEM and TRIZ and theirapplication in the professional skills of applied physics students
(Sociedad Mexicana de Física, 2024)[Abstract] The advancement of science and technology requires that future professionals in all fields of study have developed certain professional andinvestigative skills. The impact of the industrial revolution 4.0 has ... -
