Abstract Driven by the European Green Deal, the road-freight sector is hybridizing its fleet. However, at present, trailing units do not possess any form of powertrain, a missed opportunity. By introducing electrically driven axles, these units may reduce fuel consumption and emissions substantially. …

Problems of energy security, diversification of energy sources, and improvement of technologies (including alternatives) for obtaining motor fuels have become a priority of science and practice today. Many scientists devote their scientific research to the problems of obtaining effective brands of alternative …

The logistics sector is continually seeking innovations to improve service productivity and profitability in freight transport, such as reduced fuel consumption and automation in warehouses. However, the road transport sector in Europe currently faces challenges such as a shortage of drivers, unused …

As fuel is expensive and profit must be maximized, it is wise for the maritime industry to invest in fuel saving applications. One of the possibilities is to replace old turbochargers by new fuel saving ones on the already installed engines, recommended by Wärtsilä. Although the potential fuel savings …

In this study, aviation, energy, exergy, environmental, exergoeconomic, and exergoenvironmental analyses are performed on a CFM56-3 series high by-pass turbofan engine fueled with Jet-A1 fuel. Specific fuel consumption and specific thrust of the engine are found to be 0.01098 kg/kN.s and 0.3178 kN/kg/s, …

The objective of this study is to evaluate the energetic, exergetic, sustainability, economic and environmental performances of a 4-cylinder turbodiesel aviation engine (TdAE) used on unmanned aerial vehicles for the take-off operation mode to assess the system with large aspects. Energy efficiency of …

In this research paper, it was concluded that there still remains a lot of uncertainty in the predicament of when a gas-trip can occur on dual-fuel propelled ships. In a situation on board of the Coral Energy, these gas-trips resulted in the main engine not being able to switch-over to gas-mode again. …

This research is about the consequences for the employees, cargo and passengers of the Pride of Rotterdam as a result of the Brexit. First, a theoretical framework was drawn up. Then a main question was drawn up: What are the consequences for the employees, cargo and passengers of the Pride of Rotterdam …
