Bush Pilot Angler

by Lee Wulff

10,16€ + 10% CARD

 Most people know the late Lee Wulff as the worlds foremost salmon angler. Few, if any, think of him as a skilled bush pilot and explorer. But he was both, as Lee reveals in this extraordinary memoir. Based on an unpublished manuscript that was rediscovered only recently by his widow, Joan Wulff, this book tells the story of Lees years pioneering the Atlantic salmon and brook trout fisheries on the remote coasts of northeastern Newfoundland and Labrador.Having established a handful of outpost sporting camps by boat, Wulff quickly realized that getting clients and supplies in and out efficiently would require an airplane. So he cut a deal with Piper Aircraft and learned to fly a new bright-yellow J-3 Cub equipped with floats. Throughout the late 1940s and early 1950s, he ferried his sports one-by-one into isolated lakes and rivers where the fishing went beyond their wildest dreams.Soar with Wulff through unpredictable mountain gusts, low over muskeg bogs, and blind through thick fog and smothering darkness. Meet his sons, Barry and Allan, and feel their fathers pride as both become good anglers and valuable contributors to the operation of the camps. Get to know the warm, hard-working Newfoundlanders recruited as guides and camp staff. And share salmon pools with some of World War IIs most notable generals, who fished with Lee during brief breaks from the horrors of the European front.Bush Pilot Angler is an unforgettable story of courage, flying, love, and fishing. It is a fitting tribute to Lee Wulff, an extraordinary man who fought tirelessly for the conversation of his beloved Atlantic salmon in Newfoundland and throughout North America.

Entry And Exit In The Post-Liberalized German Airline Market

by Nicole Petrick

51,44€ + 10% CARD

 Master's Thesis from the year 2007 in the subject Economy - Transport Economics, grade: 1,3, Humboldt-University of Berlin, language: English, abstract: This paper examines actual entry and exit dynamics in the German airline market in light of the European liberalization process. For this purpose, flight schedules data was used to derive entry and exit statistics for a set of chosen inner-German routes over a period of thirteen years. Data was analysed in cross-sectional and longitudinal manner while identifying different entry waves and examining incumbent behaviour with respect to entry deterrence strategies. Furthermore, the market's concentration and structure was tracked to allow a conclusion with respect to the market's contestability after liberalization. The results suggest the existence of remaining structural barriers to entry and depict a rather unsatisfactory overall state of the post liberalized market.

Energy-Efficient Hydrodynamic Design Of Ships For Inland Waterways Of Bangladesh Based On Fuel Consumption And Emission Control

by S. M. Rashidul Hasan

45,66€ + 10% CARD

 Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2022 in the subject Engineering - Naval Engineering, Ocean Engineering, , language: English, abstract: It has been observed that direct use of the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) formulation for the inland ships will not provide the correct result. The prime reason is the effect of shallow water on the ship resistance. In addition to that, cargo availability and fuel quality issues for the inland vessels of Bangladesh forbid the use of IMO guidelines. Again, a generalized formulation is not possible for inland ships. Therefore, the EEDI formulation needs to be modified to be useful for an individual country. To find out the necessary modification of EEDI by IMO to be useful for inland ships of Bangladesh, several field visits, investigations, and laboratory tests have been conducted. The results of these visits, investigations and tests have been used to quantify the hydrodynamic effect of shallow water on ship resistance, actual average operational condition, cargo availability and actual carbon content in fuel. These corrections have been integrated with EEDI by IMO which has been used for the inland ships of Bangladesh. To quantify and set up the CO2 emission level of the Inland Maritime sector of Bangladesh, verified ship data and operational profiles are necessary. Using a good number of verified inland ship data, EEDI baselines for Bangladeshi inland cargo, oil tanker and passenger ships were established. These baselines are one of the first steps in the world for inland ships using verified ship data and are termed as EEDIBD. A ship design method that will ensure the reduction of CO2 emission, sensitivity analysis has been carried out. Three existing ships (cargo, oil tanker and passenger) of Bangladesh have been analysed and EEDIBD was calculated. To do that IMO provides several guidelines, which are most appropriate for seagoing ships. To assess the possibility of CO2 emission reduction, a sensitivity analysis was carried out on the inland ship design parameters of Bangladesh. The outcome of the sensitivity analysis is a set of inland ship design suggestions that will lower the EEDIBD value from the current stage. These ship design suggestions have been implemented on three existing inland ships. These existing ships resistance have been examined using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Those ships designs have been improved based on the ship design suggestions. It has been found that remodelled ship designs have 10-15% less resistance in comparison with the parent hull.

Congestion Charges. International Experiences And Suggestions For Germany

19,41€ + 10% CARD

 Seminar paper from the year 2019 in the subject Economy - Transport Economics, grade: 1.0, Zeppelin University Friedrichshafen, language: English, abstract: The congestion problem could be alleviated by switching to more space-efficient means of transport such as local public transport. The majority of cities lack incentive systems that encourage individual users to switch. This paper addresses this problem and discusses the possibility of introducing a price mechanism within the framework of a congestion charge. In the second chapter, transport economic models and the urban modal split are used as the basis. In the second half of the second chapter, congestion is considered as an expression of a collective action problem and possible counter-mechanisms. With regard to the research question, attention is paid to the congestion charge. In the third chapter, the case study method is used to analyse the three cities Stockholm, London and Singapore that have already introduced congestion charges. From the different price models as well as effects on the demand for transport services, recommendations for action for the application in German cities are developed in the fourth chapter. The last chapter contains a critical discussion and a conclusion.

 Master's Thesis from the year 2019 in the subject Economy - Transport Economics, grade: 3, Asia Pacific University of Technology and Innovation (Lord Buddha Education Foundation), course: M. Sc, language: English, abstract: The continuous growth in vehicle numbers has increased the congestion of traffic in maximum urban places in the world. The insufficient space to further expand the road and also the budget to further construct new roads in every city means the country must think about other method to solve this issue. Rather than following the traditional way of just expanding the roads, a system should be adopted that can help reduce the traffic problems. In this research, future scope of STMS in the context of Kathmandu, Nepal is explained. In order to collect the information related to the existing traffic system and the objectives related to the subject matter, quantitative approach of research follows. Also, the benefits of adopting STMS in the current scenario of Kathmandu are described. Various technical challenges need to be overcome in order to adopt STMS. Those challenges are described in this research with proper references to the information collected from the vehicle owners as well as the traffic policemen of Kathmandu through questionnaire.

Driver Misconduct, Traffic Congestion And The Effectiveness Of Urban Transportation. A Case Study Of The Kumasi Metropolis

by Stephen Tete Mantey

42,27€ + 10% CARD

 Master's Thesis from the year 2018 in the subject Economy - Transport Economics, grade: 65.73, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (Institute of Distance Learning), course: Msc Logistics and Supply Chain management, language: English, abstract: The main aim of this study was to determine the causes of driver misconduct and traffic congestion, examine the relationship between driver misconduct and effectiveness urban transportation. It examines the influence of traffic congestion on the relationship between driver misconduct and effectiveness of urban transportation. A case study research design was used and the Kumasi metropolis was adopted as the case. The study relied on managers of transportation stations, drivers, passengers and other people familiar with the function of the transportation sector. Data was accordingly collected from these people through the use of questionnaires. Observations were also made to confirm some of the responses. Three hundred respondents were selected through the purposive and convenient sampling techniques. The study found that the major causes of driver misconduct and traffic congestion included; talk-testing, inadequate road signs and markings and illegal crossing of pedestrians. Interestingly, the study found that driver misconduct was not a major contributor to the level of effectiveness of urban transport but that the traffic congestion due to inadequate infrastructure rather significantly affects driver misconduct. The study concludes that traffic congestion rather than driver misconduct affects the efficiency of the transport system in Ghana. It is therefore recommended that much attention should be paid to expanding the transport infrastructure to improve upon the efficiency of the transport system in Ghana.
