Sommario/riassunto

The liner shipping network design delivers schedules and routes for ships that continuously visit harbours on a closed round trip. Examples of such ships are container ships that in many cases maintain a weekly harbour visiting frequency. Volker Windeck elaborates a liner shipping network design approach which is not only considering the harbours to be visited, cargo to be transported and number of ships available, but also considers environmental influences. Additionally the revenue contribution of alternative propulsion system can also be analysed. Extensive numerical tests indicate that significant saving are obtained when using this liner shipping network design approach.   Der Inhalt ·         Routing and Scheduling in Maritime Shipping ·         Environmental Routing ·         Strategic Liner Network Design           Die Zielgruppen ·         Researchers and students in the fields of transportation and logistics. ·         Executives in the area of maritime transportation, ship routing and its management.     Der Autor Dr. Volker Windeck wrote his dissertation under Prof. Dr. Hartmut Stadtler’s supervision at the Institute for Logistics and Transportation



at the University of Hamburg.

Shock waves and the large scale structure (LSS) of the universe -- Hydrodynamic limits, nonlinear diffusions, and propagation of chaos -- Hopf-Cole formula and its asymptotic analysis -- Statistical description, parabolic approximation -- Hyperbolic approximation and inviscid limit -- Forced Burgers turbulence -- Passive tracer transport in Burgers' and related flows -- Fractal Burgers-KPZ models.

Sommario/riassunto

These lecture notes are woven around the subject of Burgers' turbulence/KPZ model of interface growth, a study of the nonlinear parabolic equation with random initial data. The analysis is conducted mostly in the space-time domain, with less attention paid to the frequency-domain picture. However, the bibliography contains a more complete information about other directions in the field which over the last decade enjoyed a vigorous expansion. The notes are addressed to a diverse audience, including mathematicians, statisticians, physicists,



fluid dynamicists and engineers, and contain both rigorous and heuristic arguments. Because of the multidisciplinary audience, the notes also include a concise exposition of some classical topics in probability theory, such as Brownian motion, Wiener polynomial chaos, etc.
