Abstract:

Cruise travel has become very popular worldwide. The North American cruise market is the world's biggest. Asian countries are among the fastest-growing outbound market for cruise travel. The Taiwanese cruise market has grown substantially. However, few research studies have examined Taiwanese travelers' motivation to experience a cruise vacation, and their satisfaction with the experience. Primary data was collected from a convenience sample of Taiwanese tourists who had been on North American cruise tours. Survey respondents were first time cruisers, over 40 years old, married, and had a Bach

Abstract:

The Battle Cruiser was the result of the naval arms race and the realisation that England's undisputed mastery of the seas was over. The ship was the next logical step in the evolution of the Cruiser. Historians have generally considered this type of warship as an expensive mistake. While it was not as successful as its creators might have hoped, neither was it the disaster claimed by many of its critics. Once the British chose to build these ships, not only did they have no choice but to keep building more of them, but they also had to build larger, more powerful and expensive Battle Cruisers

Abstract:

From the middle of the 1880s until the commencement of the Great War 1914-’18 the first-class cruiser was an vital component of the British battlefleet. This was a period in which technology and tactics evolved at an extremely rapid pace, forming the material basis for Sir John Fisher’s ‘Dreadnought Revolution’, in which cruiser qualities of speed, range and offensive power were greatly prized. Throughout this era enormous sums were spent on such types: they were frequently longer than and cost almost as much as their battleship contemporaries, while carrying a near-equivalent armament and pos

Em contrapartida, neste mesmo período, o Brasil se destacou pelos investimentos na área de infraestrutura, dentre elas a estrutura dos portos brasileiros.

Abstract:

In the early 1920s the Weimar Republic commissioned a series of new light cruisers of the Königsberg class and in July 1926, the keel of the later christened Karlsruhe was laid down. The 570 feet long and almost 50 feet wide ship was used as a training cruiser for future German naval officers. Between 1930 and 1936 the ship conducted in all five good-will tours around the world, two under the Weimar Republic and three under the Third Reich. These good-will tours or gute Willen Fahrten were an important first step in reconciling Germany to the rest of the world and were meant to improve interna

Abstract:

This doctoral thesis focuses on the modification of ACC to include actual driver workload in the context of automatic headway change. ACC is a driver assistance system that automatically maintains a preliminary defined speed and permits a driver to perform manual headway changes. As drivers show worse (brake) reaction times under high workload situations, the system increases headway accordingly. Driver workload is estimated based on physiological data. Here, we investigate the possibilities of such a system, assuming that physiological sensors can be implemented in future vehicles. The thesis

The new Storm bird was supposed to be a full on blue water cruiser concept, a boat that the presumed owner would not have to change in order to set off on his trip.To get insight in the minds and the needs of long distance sailors an extensive market and custom

Due to the variety and complexity of the subsystems of the cruise missiles, the main concern is limited with the navigation system.

Chattering controls are considered appropriate when the hodograph is non-convex.

The term "extended chattering" refers to vehicle system modelling extended to maintain vertical equilibrium only on the average.

The problem of determining cruise-dash trajectories is examined for the case of time-fuel optimization using a linear combination of time and fuel as the performance index. These trajectories consist of a transient arc followed by a steady-state arc. For cases where the steady-state arc is flown with full throttle the associated skeletal transient trajectories are also flown with full throttle, and approach the cruise-dash points monotonically in an asymptotic fashion. When the steady-state arc is flown at an intermediate throttle setting, the transient trajectories follow a singular control

Abstract:

The contribution of this paper consists in a procedure to solve the optimal cruise control problem that consists in transferring the car velocity between two specified values, in a fixed interval of time, with minimum fuel consumption. The solution is obtained by applying a recursive numerical algorithm that provides an approximation to the condition provided by Pontryagin’s Optimum Principle. This solution is compared with the one obtained by using a reduced complexity linear model for the car dynamics that allows an exact (“analytical”) solution of the corresponding optimal control problem.
