Gender mainstreaming practices in METIs: Some case studies
(Massachusetts Maritime Academy, 2024)
Conference report
Open AccessThe existing gender imbalance, discrimination and difficulties that female students face in Maritime Education and Training (MET) constitutes a widespread concern. To address this situation, Maritime Education and Training ... -
Absenteeism in maritime education: insights, challenges, and innovative solutions
(Massachusetts Maritime Academy, 2024)
Conference report
Open AccessStudents’ attendance at classes is a measure that reflects students’ enthusiasm for the course and their status in the university. University-level absenteeism is influenced by various factors, ranging from academic ... -

Article
Open AccessPurpose: This paper aims at introducing the importance and the relevant concepts and tools for including gender dimension in teaching, with a special focus in the Operations Management knowledge field. Design/methodology/approach: ... -
Probabilistic and physically-based modelling of rainfall-induced landslide susceptibility using integrated GIS-FORM algorithm
(Springer, 2024-06)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe susceptibility mapping of rainfall-induced landslides is an effective tool for predicting and locating disaster-prone zones at the regional scale. One of the most important parts of landslide susceptibility models is ... -
Modelling thermal dynamics in intermittent operation of a PEMEL for green hydrogen production
(Institute of Physics (IOP), 2024)
Conference report
Open AccessGreen hydrogen plays a pivotal role in the imminent energy transition, addressing energy storage and electricity generation decarbonization. The European Commission's hydrogen strategy underscores the goal to install at ... -
Fast physically-based probabilistic modelling of rainfall-induced shallow landslide susceptibility at the regional scale considering geotechnical uncertainties and different hydrological conditions
(Elsevier, 2024-08)
Article
Open AccessThe inherent uncertainty in hydro-geotechnical parameters presents a significant challenge for accurately predicting rainfall-triggered shallow landslides in mountainous regions. In this study, a novel probabilistic framework ... -
Low-pressure gasoline direct injection system development and emissions analysis for a reciprocating two-stroke engine
(Springer, 2024-04-25)
Article
Open AccessThis study presents the design and construction of an electronic low-pressure gasoline direct injection system for two-stroke engines, with the objective to study engine performance and the emission of exhaust polluting ... -
Modelling antecedent soil hydrological conditions to improve the prediction of landslide susceptibility in typhoon-prone regions
(Springer, 2024-07)
Article
Open AccessMost regional landslide susceptibility models do not consider the evolving soil hydrological conditions leading up to a multiple occurrence regional landslide event. This results in inaccurate predictions due to the ... -
Emissions assessment of container ships sailing under off-design conditions
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-10-01)
Article
Open AccessMaritime transportation is the prevalent mode of transport for overseas freight, and it is frequently recognised as a relatively environmentally sustainable means of transport. However, shipping is still a substantial ... -
Contactless characterization of the elastic properties of glass microspheres
(American Institute of Physics (AIP), 2023-04-25)
Article
Open AccessGlass microspheres are of great interest for numerous industrial, biomedical, or standalone applications, but it remains challenging to evaluate their elastic and optical properties in a non-destructive way. In this work, ...
