Container Transportation by Sea

The main objective of this master thesis is Northern Sea Route and its potential economic feasibility in maritime transportation between Europe and Asia. Theoretical part of the study begins by definition of maritime container transportation and then it continues by description of discovery of the Northern Sea Route, its geographical and weather conditions. The empirical part is concentrating on the Russian legislation adjusting using of Northern Sea Route, infrastructure and ports in arctic waters and the services of Russian icebreaker fleet that operates in arctic waters. Last part of the thesis is the case study, where is calculated the price of transport of one TEU between Asia and Europe via Northern Sea Route and the costs of this transport are compared with the costs of transport via Suez canal.

Analysis of trnasporter's liability in container traffic in terms of law.

The aim of this master's thesis is to combine academic knowledge with a real business world situation. Main goal of the thesis is to analyze the possibility of developing a distribution channel in Europe rather than selling on CFR basis. The theoretical part will define the main terms and conditions of the container logistics in the 21st century along with the specifications of the European market. This will set up a more stable ground for understanding the whole polymer distribution process. In the practical part, Tricon Energy will be introduced and its current distribution to Europe strategy analyzed. Based on the polymer market situation in Europe and findings from the theoretical part, an optimization of the supply chain process can begin. The optimization will start with the purchase side, followed by the transportation and warehousing to the sales side. In the last chapter, three complex scenarios of the new distribution strategy will be presented and compared as the outcome of this master's thesis.

National security of the United States of America is dependent on secure use of the world's oceans. U. S. security interests are bound to international trade which is carried out primarily by ships (80 percent of world trade by volume of which 20 percent is bound to U. S. maritime trade). Vastness of maritime domain brings about many security issues which threaten interests of the United States. Terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon on 9/11 caused rapid intensification of security measures. These measures have been implemented to deal with maritime related threats such as terrorism, piracy, drug smuggling, human trafficking, arms trade, computer criminality or natural disasters. This work proceeds from widened concept of security pioneered by authors representing the Copenhagen school.

The focus of this work is to create a method for the selection of the concept of on-premise IT infrastructure. The document is divided into six chapters, where the first is dedicated to brief introduction and definition of objectives of the work. The second chapter focuses on current state of the problem, which includes research of similar works and definitions of used terms. The third chapter is devoted to describing conceptions as the basis for the fourth chapter, which deals with construction of the method. The fifth chapter is devoted to the verification of the method in a real world environment and last chapter summarizes the whole thesis.

The main aim of the project is to create a multifunctional complex, which should provide an overall space for public entertainment, art and culture. It is also important to say that this project is trying to focuse on the younger generation and their needs. On the other hand, the region seeks to promote leisure for all ages. Program of the project has provided a clear definition of the concept and objectives that should be achieved in this infrastructure. That provides a number of options, such as how to split function in the area, or how to create a functional program for new and existing buildings of the whole area.

Diploma thesis deals with creating the concept of container based modular building. The process of building is made by connecting module. Three block modules were designed. They could be created up to nine combinations (Up to nine combination might be created up by these). The modules are designed as a diffuse open wooden building with a warm flat roof. Family house is one of the possible combinations. Construction of building consists of two connected modules that are made like single-storey. Founded on earth screws. Under the construction is ventilated space. The building is situated on flat land (parcel) in Velké Němčice. The advantages of modular container buildings are good thermal properties, short time of construction and the possibility of connecting or disconnecting the modules.
