2. 1. The Dry Port Concept

   Author : Violeta Roso; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; environment; dry port; intermodal transport; seaport inland access; intermodal terminal;

   Abstract : Environmental problems have received increasing attention during the last decade and with them also the role that logistics systems can play in reducing the environmental impact; however, logistics concepts in the role of decreasing environmental impacts have not been extensively researched until recently. One of these concepts is a concept of dry port, which is the focus of this thesis. READ MORE

4. 2. Role of a dry port stakeholder network in intermodal transportation

   Author : Alena Khaslavskaya; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; dry port; coopetition activities; dry port characteristics; Dry port concept; stakeholder network; intermodal transportation; stakeholder objectives; intermodal transportation challenges;

   Abstract : The concept of a dry port, which emerged from intermodal transportation research approximately 20 years ago, has gained popularity due to its financial benefits and positive environmental impact. The core idea behind the dry port concept is the establishment of high-capacity intermodal transportation in the seaport’s hinterland. READ MORE

5. 3. Emergence and significance of dry ports

   Author : Violeta Roso; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; intermodal transport; dry port; seaport inland access; intermodal terminal; environment.;

   Abstract : With increasing maritime containerized transport, efficient seaport terminals and inland access are essential for the entire intermodal transportation chain to function. Improvement only in maritime transport and in seaport terminals without improvements in seaport inland access is not sufficient since a growth in the sea flow implies an almost proportional increase in the inland flow.

6. 4. Tableting performance of dry granulated particles : Significance and assessment of compression mechanical properties

   Author : Maryam Tofiq; Göran Alderborn; Ann-Sofie Persson; Josefina Nordström; Peter Kleinebudde; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Dry granulation; Powder compression; Compression parameters; Granule composition; Granule structure; Granule strength; Granule fragmentation; Granule deformation; Tablet tensile strength; Loss of tabletability;

   Abstract : Dry granulation (DG) is often utilized as an intermediate process during tablet manufacturing, for improving flow characteristics of the powder blend and/or reducing segregation issues related to the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). The resulting granules exhibit typically irregular shapes with rough surfaces and their mechanical properties are related to the feeding powder and the process parameters used during the DG.

7. 5. Transient vibrations from dry clutch operation in heavy-duty truck powertrains : Modelling, simulation and validation

   Author : Jakob Sjöstrand; Leif Kari; Ines Lopez Arteaga; Per Erik Austrell; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Dry clutch system; Engagement; Disengagement; Dry-friction; LuGre friction model; Heavy-truck powertrain; Teknisk mekanik; Engineering Mechanics;

   Abstract : For internal combustion engines used in heavy-duty vehicles, increased engine efficiency and consequently reduced CO2 emissions can be obtained if the engine speed can be kept within an optimal speed range. This requires swift and frequent gear shifts where the dry friction clutch is utilized. READ MORE
