Abstract:

Trafficking in persons (TIP) has continued to captivate media attention in the United Kingdom (UK). These portrayals consistently include narratives of trafficked persons brutally exploited by traffickers. The representations of TIP also consistently indicate that the issue is widespread geographically and extensive in size. Academic literature suggests that the way in which the media represents an issue is influential in persuading public opinions and government policies (Ahmad, 2016; Baker et al., 2013; van Dijk, 1991, Wilson and O’Brien, 2016). Therefore, the main purpose of this thesis was

Abstract:

The topic of this report is accidental iceberg collision with the bow shoulder area of a 150000ton membrane-type LNG carrier. It is expected that the traffic of LNG-carriers will increase in the arctic areas in the years to come, and ice collisions are considered to be a real hazard. A finite element model of the ship side have been developed, where the area in question is the foremost tank of the ship. The collision point is assumed to be in the forward part of the tank, close to the collision bulkhead. However in the FE-analyses the collision point is moved to the centre of the tank, to avoi

Abstract:

The number of collisions between ships and icebergs are increasing in correlation with the increase of the number of ships sailing in Arctic areas. Due to the exploitation of gas fields in Arctic areas, the LNG shipping in these areas is expected to increase. The consequences of an iceberg impact can be critical for ship structure, the crew and the cargo, and it is important to be able to predict the result of such a scenario.Different relevant impact scenarios have been discussed, and it has been concluded that the most critical scenario for a spherical type LNG carrier is an impact at the bo

Abstract:

Ice sheets are integral to the earth's climate system, both modulating and responding to climatic change. Iceberg calving fronts are the only dynamic interface at which the atmosphere, oceans and ice sheets directly interact. Calving introduces mechanical instability to glacier systems such that the response of calving glaciers to climatic forcing is commonly nonlinear. The interaction between calving dynamics and the ice-marginal environment, notably the topographic geometry of glacier troughs, can partially or totally decouple glacier fluctuations from climate for periods of several centurie

Estimates of the flux of icebergs can be achieved by obtaining separate estimates of iceberg densities and of drift patterns of iceberg velocities. The objective of this thesis is to devel

Common challenges during towing of icebergs are towline rupture, that the towline slips off the iceberg, or that the iceberg overturns. These are denoted failure modes of iceberg towing operations.

The accurate control of running gaps between static and rotating components is vital to preserve mechanical integrity and ensure a correct functioning of any rotating machinery.

One way to measure and monitoring tip gap is by a Blade Tip Clearance (BTC) technique.

Abstract:

<p> Miniature pressure sensors which can endure harsh environments are a highly sought after goal in industrial, medical and research fields. Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) are the current methods to fabricate such small sensors. However, they suffer from low sensitivity and poor mechanical properties. </p><p> To fulfill the need for robust and reliable miniature pressure sensors that can operate under high temperatures, a novel type of optical fiber tip sensor only 125Î¼m in diameter is presented in this thesis. The essential element is a piece of hollow fiber which connects the fiber

Abstract:

Thesis (S.M. and S.B.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, 1999.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 93).<br>The design of fiberglass manufacturing setups has evolved largely by trial and error. Efforts are now in place to achieve a better understanding of the fiber forming process. To facilitate this research, a smaller and simpler version of the full-scale fiber forming process is being used. This system has vastly different geometry and produces a small number of fibers. Work in this project has concerned optimization of the small-scale process to
