This paper develops a dynamic regression model to quantify the contribution of key external factors to operational energy efficiency of ships. On this basis, kernel density estimation is applied to explore distribution patterns of fluctuations in operational performance. An empirical analysis based on these methods show that distribution of fluctuations in Energy Efficiency Operational Indicator (EEOI) is leptokurtic and fat tailed, rather than a normal one. Around 85% of fluctuations in EEOI can be jointly explained by capacity utilization and sailing speed, while the rest depend on other external factors largely beyond control. The variations in capacity utilization and sailing speed cannot be fully passed on to the energy efficiency performance of ships, due to complex interactions between various external factors. The application of the methods is demonstrated, showing a potential approach to develop a rating mechanism for use in the legally binding framework on operational energy efficiency of ships.

Purpose: In terms of efficiency and safety, this study attempted to organize data on the operation methods and architectural planning of infectious diseases hospitals. Methods: The results obtained through on-site and interview surveys with hospital officials and medical staffs at four infectious diseases hospitals under construction were summarized based on those original business plans and facility guidelines. Results: First, the operational methods to secure safety and operational efficiency were summarized for each department which are major hospital functions of infectious disease hospitals. Second, as the architectural planning, the characteristics of space and circulation of each department are summarized. For safety of medical staff, negative pressure and non-negative pressure zone have to completely separated. In addition medical staff wears PPE and enters the negative pressure zone and returns in the order of admiral, shower, and gowning in the PPE undressing room after patient treatment. In case of operational efficiency, flexible operation is required in normal and crisis situations. For example, it is important for The Ward to gradually switch to negative pressure beds in times of crisis from normal situation and the outpatient department considers the composition of negative pressure and non-negative pressure outpatient spaces that can operate in parallel even in crisis situations. Implications: Infectious disease hospitals require flexible operation and appropriate facilities for normal and crisis situations.

The disentangling map from the commutative algebra to the noncommutative algebra of operators is the essential operation of Feynman's operational calculus for noncommuting operators. Thus formulas which simplify this operation are meaningful to the subject. In a recent paper the procedure for "methods for iterative disentangling" has been established in the setting of Feynman's operational calculus for time independent operators $A_1$, $\cdots$, $A_n$ and associated probability measures${\mu}_1$, $\cdots$, ${\mu}_n$. The main purpose for this paper is to extend the procedure for methods for iterative disentangling to time dependent operators.

The present paper aims at harnessing the technique of Lie Algebra and operational methods to derive and interpret generating relations for the three-variable Hermite Polynomials $H_n$(x, y, z) introduced recently in [2]. Certain generating relations for the polynomials related to $H_n$(x, y, z) are also obtained as special cases.

On-off control performance of target pumping station was experimented by changing measurement methods for storage level or inflow and operating logic for control system setting. Four scenarios with different measurement methods and operational logic were examined in the Matlab/Simulink environment. Controller's on-off control repetition that was frequent before has been reduced and more effective and stable system operation was found to be possible with the scenarios. Moreover, defensive operation enforced prevention of floods by changing measurement methods enabled economic operation that made an utmost use of storage volumes.

In this paper, we discuss how the operational calculus can be exploited to the theory of mixed generating functions. We use operational methods associated with multi-variable Hermite polynomials, Laguerre polynomials and Bessels functions to drive identities useful in electromagnetism, fluid mechanics etc. Certain special cases giving bilateral generating relations related to these special functions are also discussed.

현재의 해양산업의 기술은 스마트 선박 및 자율운항선박 등의 개발과 같은 자율화 및 지능화와 환경규제의 강화에 맞추어 선박의 운항 효율성을 개선하는 친환경 선박을 위한 기술이 함께 개발되고 있다. 이러한 흐름에 맞추어, 세계각국에서는 선박의 안전운항을 보장하는 선에서 선박운항효율을 극대화하기 위해 다양한 방식으로 노력하고 있다. 본 연구에서는, 현존하는 선박운항효율 개선 기술이 운항 당시의 기상환경, 선박조종 등의 선박운항상태를 실시간으로 반영하지 못하는 문제를 개선하기 위해, 선박에서 수집한 선박운항데이터를 활용하여 실시간 선박운항효율 분석모델을 개발하고자 한다. 본 연구의 실시간 선박운항효율 분석모델은 연료소모를 기준으로 판단한 선박운항효율과 당시의 선박운항상태를 감안하여 판단한 선박운항효율을 비교하여, 식별된 선박운항효율의 타당성을 확인할 수 있는 모델이다. 분석의 주요 내용은 대상선박의 선정과 선박운항데이터의 수집, 선박운항효율 특성과 선박운항상태 특성의 구분, 그리고 이를 활용한 분류모델의 개발을 포함한다. 연구의 결과는 기존의 선박운항효율과 항해 당시 선박운항상태를 감안한 운항효율을 제시하여 선박 운항자의 의사결정을 지원하여 운항효율을 개선하고자 한다.

The optimum operation of domestic wastewater treatment plant can give influence on operational cost and future expansion in Korea where has 93 operational domestic wastewater treatment plants. Also, the study on optimum operation can reduce operation cost and budget of municipalities whom have responsibility of wastewater treatment plant operation. In this study, 9 domestic wastewater treatment plants which can represent 93 plants in Korea have been selected and operational data are gathered. The collected data are inputted to computer simulator based on IAWQ's Activated Sludge Model No.1 and optimum operation methods are developed. Also, the electric power for aeration which has large portion of overall operation cost are calculated based on design and operation conditions and these are compared. In this study, it was found that design wastewater characteristics are 1.6 times higher than those of daily maximum except for E plant and that estimation methods for design wastewater characteristics have to be improved. Based on computer simulation, we found there is no need to operate all aeration tanks due to weak influent overall power for aeration can be reduced to about 43% of design one.

Purpose: Due to the rapid growth of e-commerce in Thailand, the operational excellence of distribution service providers has been elevated. Thus, this research investigated the key drivers of operational performance of e-commerce distributors in Thailand. The research contains key variables: the analytics capabilities of an organization, supply chain disruption orientation, innovation capability, and operational performance. Research design, data, and methodology: An online survey is administered to top managers and key personnel (N=425) employed for at least one year in Thailand's top five e-commerce distributors. The sampling methods were conducted using purposive sampling, quota sampling, and convenience sampling. Confirmatory Factor Analysis and Structural Equation Model were applied to analyze and confirm the model's goodness-of-fit and hypothesis testing. Results: The findings reveal that an organization's analytics capabilities significantly affect supply chain disruption orientation and supply chain resilience. Furthermore, operational performance is affected by supply chain disruption, supplier quality management, and innovation capability. Nevertheless, supply chain resilience and digital supply chain have no significant effect on operational performance. Conclusions: The results imply that supply chain digitalization could drive higher operational performance. Distribution businesses are encountering transformation and disruption, which should address the high level of a digital supply chain, innovation, and quality management to maximize their profit margin and delivery service quality.

The paper contains the data collection methods and procedures employed in the study to evaluate the operational effects of stop sign and signal control at diamond interchanges. An assessment of traffic control alternatives is described in terms of operational effects of queues and travel speed. Guidelines for installing signal control at diamond interchanges are provided in terms of internal volume, left turn proportion within internal volume, and the sum of internal and external volume. The specific traffic volume guidelines were developed based on a combination of these variables affecting operational performance.
