Joint energy consumption optimization method for wing-diesel engine-powered hybrid ships towards a more energy-efficient shipping

Wing-diesel engine-powered hybrid ships can effectively reduce fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions by using wind energy as the auxiliary driving power. The energy optimization management of the hybrid system can further improve the ship's energy efficiency. To achieve this purpose, it is significant to establish an effective energy...

Application of YOLOv4 Algorithm for Foreign Object Detection on a Belt Conveyor in a Low-Illumination Environment

The most common failures of belt conveyors are runout, coal piles and longitudinal tears. The detection methods for longitudinal tearing are currently not particularly effective. A key study area for minimizing longitudinal belt tears with the advancement of machine learning is how to use machine vision technology to detect foreign items on...

A novel dynamical collaborative optimization method of ship energy consumption based on a spatial and temporal distribution analysis of voyage data

It is of significant importance to optimize the energy consumption of ships in order to improve economy and reduce CO₂ emissions. However, the energy use of ships is affected by a series of navigational environmental parameters, which have certain spatial and temporal differences and variability. Therefore, the dynamic...

Production and immobilization of lipase PCL and its application in synthesis of α‐linolenic acid‐rich diacylglycerol

α‐Linolenic acid‐rich diacylglycerol has been demonstrated with promising health promotion functions. This study examined the production, immobilization of lipase PCL, and its application in the synthesis of diacylglycerol by esterification of α‐linolenic acid with glycerol. The resin ECR8806 was selected as an effective support for the...
