Approaching delivery as a service

This paper explores the new logistics business model of Delivery as a Service, a concept aiming at a more efficient, fast and customer-oriented practice, linking IT solution development, urban logistics operations, supply chain efficiency and new business models. Delivery as a Service (DaaS) is defined as a service-oriented delivery and business processes in line with customer expectations and needs in the on-demand economy. The approach of this paper is an industry report based on evidence collected in multiple exploratory European projects integrating ambitious and strategic findings on Internet of Things, urban planning, consolidation centres, transport optimisation, and clean vehicle use. It contributes to a future scenario of urban logistics business models

Sustainable solutions in urban freight & logistics management: European experiences

There is a lot of investigations and experimentations with diverse solutions for a more sustainable urban logistics in UK and Europe, but a limited number of initiatives demonstrate a long term success if measured in terms of business profit, applicable regulation, environmental benefits and social acceptance. Looking at evidence from CSR reports, supported by standards, and results of projects and documentations, the objective of the workshop contribution is to understand the mechanisms of various solutions, and show how benefits are generated for different stakeholders. Focus will be on business models and technology solutions on clean vehicles, intermodality, ITS and cooperation, and how these can be supported by suitable regulatory options such as Low Emission Zones, Environmental Standards or data collection frameworks

Evaluation of Sustainable Solutions in Logistics and Supply Chain Management in Europe

Bottom up solutions and top-down approaches to sustainable logistics and supply chains are evaluated, showing benefits and robust data for decision maker

Microfog lubricant application system for advanced turbine engine components, phase 1. Tasks 1 and 2 - Wettabilities of microfog streams of various lubricants and optimization of microfog lubrication

Wettability of microfog streams of high temperature lubricants on static metal surfac

Microfog lubricant application system for advanced turbine engine components, phase 2. Tasks 3, 4 and 5: Wettability and heat transfer of microfog jets impinging on a heated rotating disc, and evaluation of reclassifying nozzles and a vortex mist generator

The wettabilities and heat transfer rates of microfog jets (oil-mist nozzle flows) impinging on a heated rotating disc were determined under an inert atmosphere of nitrogen at temperatures ranging from 600 to 800 F. The results are discussed in relation to the various factors involved in the microfog lubricant application systems. Two novel reclassifying nozzles and a vortex mist generator were also studied
