Moving Boxes by Air The Economics of International Air Cargo

Moving Boxes by Air The Economics of International Air Cargo

Air cargo is a key element of the global supply chain. It allows outsourcing of manufacturing to other countries and links production in both multinational and smaller enterprises. It has also been the most important driver of certain export industries in countries such as South Africa Kenya and Chile. As a component of the air transport industry air cargo makes the crucial difference between profit and loss on many long-haul routes. This second edition of Moving Boxes by Air offers a comprehensive and up-to-date guide to the business and practices of air cargo with chapters dedicated to key issues such as current trends market characteristics regulation airport terminal operations pricing and revenues and environmental impacts. The book illustrates the recent emphasis on mergers at the expense of alliances which have not had the impact that they had on passenger operations. The section on security has been expanded to assess in more depth the threats to aircraft from terrorists particularly in the lower cargo and passenger baggage compartments. Surcharges are examined and the book considers whether all airlines will follow the lead of some to do away with both fuel and security surcharges. The book concludes with a summary of the latest industry forecasts. Fully updated throughout this edition is the definitive guide to air cargo for professionals within both the aviation and freight industries. | Moving Boxes by Air The Economics of International Air Cargo

Energy Storage Systems and Components

Energy Storage Systems and Components

This book will provide the technical community with an overview of the development of new solutions and products that address key topics including electric/hybrid vehicles ultrafast battery charging smart grids renewable energy (e. g. solar and wind) peak shaving and reduction of energy consumption. The needs for storage discussed are within the context of changes between the centralized power generation of today and the distributed utility of tomorrow including the integration of renewable energy sources. Throughout the book methods for quantitative and qualitative comparison of energy storage means are presented through their energy capacity as well as through their power capability for different applications. The definitions and symbols for energy density and power density are given and relate to the volume and weight of a given system or component. A relatively underdeveloped concept that is crucial to this text is known as the theory of Ragone plots. This theory makes possible the evaluation of the real amount of energy that can possibly release out of a given system with respect to the level of power dependency chosen for the discharge process. From systems using electrochemical transformations to classical battery energy storage elements and so-called flow batteries to fuel cells and hydrogen storage this book further investigates storage systems based on physical principles (e. g. gravitational potential forces air compression and rotational kinetic energy). This text also examines purely electrical systems such as superconductive magnets and capacitors. Another subject of analysis is the presentation of power electronic circuits and architectures that are needed for continuously controllable power flow to and from different storage means. For all systems described the elementary principles of operation are given as well as the relationships for the quantified storage of energy. Finally Energy Storage: Systems and Components contains multiple international case studies and a rich set of exercises that serve both students and practicing engineers. | Energy Storage Systems and Components

Museum Storage and Meaning Tales from the Crypt

Museum Storage and Meaning Tales from the Crypt

Beyond their often beautiful exhibition halls many museums contain vast hidden spaces in which objects may be stored conserved or processed. Museums can also include unseen archives study rooms and libraries which are inaccessible to the public. This collection of essays focuses on this domain an area that has hitherto received little attention. Divided into four sections the book critically examines the physical space of museum storage areas the fluctuating historical fortunes of exhibits the growing phenomenon of publicly visible storage and the politics of objects deemed worthy of collection but unsuitable for display. In doing so it explores issues including the relationship between storage and canonization the politics of collecting the use of museum storage as a form of censorship the architectural character of storage space and the economic and epistemic value of museum objects. Essay contributions come from a broad combination of museum directors curators archaeologists historians and other academics. | Museum Storage and Meaning Tales from the Crypt

Solar Power and Energy Storage Systems

Solar Power and Energy Storage Systems

Extensive study of solar energy is increasing as fast as the threat of global warming is getting serious. Solar energy is considered the best source of renewable energy because it is clean and unlimited. Solar radiation can be harnessed and converted into different forms of energy that does not pollute the environment. In order to transform solar radiation we need collectors of sunlight such as solar cells. The main challenges are energy security the increasing prices of carbon-based energy sources and global warming. We cannot use sunlight during the night so an energy storage system (ESS) is necessary. The best ESS is one with high power and high energy density. This book introduces the basic concepts of an ESS. Written by Prof. Hee-Je Kim who leads an interdisciplinary team at the Pusan National University this book compiles and details the cutting-edge research that is revolutionizing solar energy by improving its efficiency and storage techniques through the development of engineered sunlight.
