DANIELA KINCOVÁ AUTHOR VEDOUCÍ PRÁCE Ing. RÓBERT ©O©OVIÈKA, Ph.D. SUPERVISOR BRNO 2015 Abstrakt Tato práce se zabývá problematikou zavedení a provozu nadzvukových business jetù. V dnešní době se v civilní letecké pøepravě, po ukončení provozu Concordu, žádná nadzvuková letadla nevyskytují. V dnešní době existuje mnoho projektù a organizací, které se zabý- vají znovuzavedením nadzvukových letounù do civilního letectví a soustředí se pøevážně na business jety. Hlavní otázkou je, zda je vùbec vhodné, èi rozumné se k tomu typu dopravy znovu vracet. Existuje hodně problémù, které toto komplikují. Tyto letouny způsobují příliš velký hluk, mají obrovskou spotøebu paliva a musí øe¹it nadměrné emise, létají ve vysokých výškách ve kterých mùže docházet k problémùm s pøetlakováním kabiny, navi- gací, radioaktivním zářením apod. Navíc zákaz supersonických letù nad pevninou letové cesty omezuje a prodlužuje. Současně vznikající projekty navíc nedosahují tak velkého doletu jako klasické moderní bussjety, což zpùsobuje, že se nadzvukové business jety se na delších tratích stávají neefektivní. I pøes tyto problémy, je víceméně jisté, že k zavedení nadzvukových business jetù dojde během následujících 10 - 15 let, i kdyby to měla být jen otázka jisté prestiže velmi bohatých lidí. Summary This thesis is dealing with problematic about launching and operating supersonic business jets. Nowadays, after Concorde retirement, there are no more any supersonic aircrafts in civil transport system.

    Paper No. 4003 Joint Authority Inspections in Dangerous Goods Law Enforcement in Sweden

    Proceedings of the 18th International Symposium on the Packaging and Transportation of Radioactive Materials PATRAM 2016 September 18-23, 2016, Kobe, Japan Paper No. 4003 Joint Authority Inspections in Dangerous Goods Law Enforcement in Sweden Author Co-Author Michael Wallin Helmuth Zika Abstract The authorities’ mandates for inspecting transport activities concerning dangerous goods are divided between several authorities in Sweden. This is due to the fact that the Act (2006:263) and Ordinance (2006:311) on Transport of Dangerous Goods state that the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB) and Swedish Transport Agency (TS) are transport authorities and that the Transport Agency, Police, Swedish Coast Guard (KBV), Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) and Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency are inspection authorities. The transport authorities, MSB and TS, issue the modal regulations; MSB is responsible for translating and putting ADR-S (road regulations) and RID-S (railway regulations) into force. The Swedish Transport Agency is responsible for putting the international IMDG-code and ICAO-TI into force. We do not use ADN in Sweden; the IMDG-code is applicable on inland waterways. The inspection authorities are: The Swedish Transport Agency: Its railway department performs inspections of rail transports of dangerous goods. The shipping department performs inspections of sea transports, with some help from the Coast Guard. The aviation department performs inspections of air transports of dangerous goods. The Swedish Police’ mandate is for road transport inspections. The Swedish Coast Guard has this role in harbours. The Coast Guard also assists the Transport Agency at sea upon request. SSM is responsible for inspecting all modes of transport involving radioactive materials and advice the other authorities on radioactive materials.

De Luca Candidata: Tutors: Ing. Vera D'Oriano Ch.mo Prof. R. Savino Ing. M. Visone (BLUE Engineering) Acknowledgements First I wish to thank my academic tutor Prof. Raffaele Savino, for offering me this precious opportunity and for his enthusiastic guidance. Next, I am immensely grateful to my company tutor, Michele Visone (Mike, for friends) for his technical support, despite his busy schedule, and for his constant encouragements. I also would like to thank the HyPlane team members: Rino Russo, Prof. Battipede and Prof. Gili, Francesco and Gennaro, for the fruitful collaborations. A special thank goes to all Blue Engineering guys (especially to Myriam) for making our site a pleasant and funny place to work. Many thanks to queen Giuly and Peppe "il pazzo", my adoptive family during my stay in Turin, and also to my real family, for the unconditional love and care. My greatest gratitude goes to my unique friends - my potatoes (Alle & Esa), my mentor Valerius and Franca - and to my soul mate Naso, to whom I dedicate this work. Abstract Access to Space is still in its early stages of commercialization. Most of the attention is currently focused on sub-orbital flights, which allow Space tourists to experiment microgravity conditions for a few minutes and to see a large area of the Earth, along with its curvature, from the stratosphere. Secondary markets directly linked to the commercial sub-orbital flights may include microgravity research, remote sensing, high altitude Aerospace technological testing and astronauts training, while a longer term perspective can also foresee point-to-point hypersonic transportation.

    International Co-operation in Oil Spill Response in European Waters Dr. Michael O’Brien, Mr. Richard Johnson, Ms. Helen Thomas (ITOPF) Paper presented at: Interspill 2004. Clean Seas – Global Concern, Local Solutions, Trondheim, Norway, 14-17 June 2004 Introduction It is often observed after large oil spills that there is pressure to review and change the oil spill prevention and emergency response system. In recent years this was true following the SEA EMPRESS (1996) which resulted in a reorganisation of responsibilities in the UK, the ERIKA (1999) which resulted in new IMO rules on tanker standards and the BALTIC CARRIER (2001) which resulted in a HELCOM review of response techniques. It is also true of the PRESTIGE (2002) which has focused much attention in Europe on the availability of response resources for at sea containment and recovery. The purpose of the following paper is to aid in the evaluation of response preparedness and available means in Europe. This is done by reviewing the different types of public and private organisations responsible for at-sea response, by providing the latest numbers of specialised and non-specialised oil-spill response vessels available to competent national authorities in Europe and by discussing the key role played by regional and sub-regional mutual-aid agreements. The main conclusions that can be drawn from this review are the following: • Although all 14 European countries considered here have clearly identified national competent authorities for at-sea oil spills, the organisations involved differ in infrastructure, historical background and legal remit. • Though the nature of the government agencies involved in oil spill response at sea vary from one country to the next, only two have expectations that the shipowner should become involved in the response other than to compensate costs.
