Sustainable structural design optimization - prestressed concrete beams by Ng, Kok Hang

“…The case study revealed that for an 18 m wide bridge, a 3-beam layout generates lesser overall EC than a 4-beam layout and a beam length (thus column spacing) of 20 to 26 m is likely to produce the lowest EC for the bridge system. …”

Shear strength of reinforced and prestressed concrete deep beams by Lu, Hai Yun.

“…The studies in this thesis mainly focus on the general behaviour, analysis and design in the shear strength of large reinforced and post-tensioned concrete deep beams. The influence of main steel ratio p, concrete strength fc', shear span-to-overall-height ratio a/h (or shear span-to-effective-depth ratio a/d), overall height h and prestress force on deep beams are investigated.…”

Market outlook of VLCCs in the next 5 years by Cheah, Peifang.

“…Discounted cashflow analysis would be applied to derive the Net Present Value (NPV) and the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of investing in newbuild, 5 year old, 10 year old and 15 year old VLCC based on the forecasted freight rates under the various scenarios (varying WACC from 0 to 20%). …”

Market outlook of VLCCs in the next 5 years by Cheah, Peifen.

“…The purpose of this paper is to analyze the Very Large Crude Carrier (VLCC) market and come up with an opinion on whether it is worth entering the market in the next 5 years. The analysis would look at the demand and supply of VLCCs which determines the VLCC freight market. …”
