Probabilistic Risk Analysis for Ship Collision-Theory and Application for Conventional and Autonomous Ships

Maritime transportation has been one of the major contributors to the global trade and economy. Accidents, however, have been continuously posing risks to individuals and societies in terms of loss of human life, economic and environmental consequences, etc. This thesis paid particular attention to the probabilistic risk analysis of ship...

Three-dimensional Nanostructures Fabricated by Ion-Beam-Induced Deposition

The direct writing technology known as ion-beam-induced deposition (IBID) has been attracting attention mainly because of its high degree of flexibility of locally prototyping three-dimensional (3D) nanostructures. These high-resolution nanostructures have various research applications. However, no systematic study of the capability of IBID to...
