麻省理工學院海事聯盟啟航

一個新的國際合作組織,將麻省理工學院(MIT)與海事行業的領導者聯合起來,旨在開發核推進技術、替代燃料、數據驅動的運營策略等。

每年約有110億噸貨物,即每人約1.5噸,通過海運運輸,這佔全球貿易量的約90%。全球的商船艦隊約有110,000艘船隻。這些船舶及其服務的港口對當地和全球經濟貢獻良多,但同時也是溫室氣體排放的重要來源。

上週在MIT舉行的簽約儀式上,成立的新聯盟旨在解決海運行業的氣候有害排放,同時支持符合國際海事組織設定的去碳化目標的環保運作。

MIT海洋工程學威廉·科克教授Themis Sapsis表示:「這是一個與海事行業關鍵利益相關者的及時合作,具有非常大膽和跨學科的研究議程,將建立新技術和基於證據的標準。」他指出,這個聯盟將把MIT在商業航運的關鍵領域的最佳技術,如商業環境中的核技術、自動操作和人工智能方法、改進的流體動力學和船舶設計、網絡安全和製造等,整合起來。

由Sapsis和社會科學福特國際教授Fotini Christia共同領導的MIT海事聯盟,集合了來自MIT各個校園的合作夥伴,包括海洋工程中心、數據、系統與社會研究所(IDSS)、核科學與工程系、土木與環境工程系、MIT海洋計劃等,並與國內外的行業專家社區合作。

海事聯盟的創始成員包括美國船舶局(ABS)、Capital Clean Energy Carriers Corp.以及HD韓國造船與海洋工程公司。創新成員則包括Foresight Group、Navios Maritime Partners L.P.、新加坡海事研究所和Dorian LPG。

Christia表示:「海事行業面臨的挑戰是任何單一公司或組織無法單獨解決的。解決方案涉及幾乎所有工程學院的學科,以及人工智能和數據驅動的算法、政策和法規——這是一個真正的MIT問題。」

研究人員將探討與商業航運的技術經濟需求和限制相一致的核系統新設計、替代燃料的經濟和環境可行性、新的數據驅動算法和自動平台的嚴格評估標準、網絡物理情境意識和異常檢測,以及用於船上製造的3D打印技術。合作夥伴還將就與MIT總統的氣候、可持續性和人工智能相關的研究優先事項提供建議。

MIT在船舶研究和設計方面已有超過一個世紀的領先地位,並因其在流體力學、船舶結構力學與動力學、螺旋槳設計及整體船舶設計等領域的貢獻而廣受認可。當前的研究位於海洋科學和工程的前沿,重點涉及流體力學和流體動力學、聲學、海洋力學、海洋機器人和傳感器,以及海洋感知和預測。該聯盟在MIT的學術基地也為跨系合作打開了大門。

海事聯盟將啟動多個研究項目,從多個角度應對挑戰,所有項目都統一於尖端數據分析和計算技術。合作夥伴將研究新設計和方法,以提高效率並減少溫室氣體排放,探索替代燃料的可行性,推進數據驅動的決策、製造和材料、流體動力性能和網絡安全。

ABS的主席兼首席執行官Christopher J. Wiernicki表示:「這個聯盟匯聚了一系列重要公司,合在一起有潛力成為全球航運的塑造者。」

他補充道:「該聯盟的優勢和獨特之處在於成員,都是世界級的組織和真正的改變者。能夠利用成員的經驗和專業知識,加上MIT的技術影響力,將為推進提供強大的動力。」他指出,聯盟不僅希望研究排放挑戰中的關鍵障礙、瓶頸和知識空白,還希望促進新技術和政策創新的發展,這些將是未來的關鍵。從長遠來看,聯盟希望能夠提供所需的重力來改變當前的趨勢。

這個聯盟的成立不僅是對海事行業的一次重要創新,也為應對氣候變化提供了新的思路。隨著全球對可持續發展的關注加劇,MIT與行業領導者的合作無疑會對未來的航運業產生深遠影響。這樣的跨界合作不僅能引領技術創新,還能推動政策變革,為全球的環境保護和可持續發展貢獻力量。

Generate an ultra-realistic, highly ultra-detailed, 8k resolution with 1080x1080 pixel portrait of me using the uploaded image for reference (preserved the likeness and the original face for reference) of a striking, high-resolution portrait of a young woman with long, flowing wavy brunette hair, seated gracefully on a simple black wooden chair in a dimly lit studio. She wears an oversized, off-white knitted sweater that drapes loosely over her frame, slipping off one shoulder to reveal smooth skin and add a subtle touch of sensuality. Her pose is elegant and contemplative: one arm rests gently on the chair’s backrest while her hand delicately supports her chin, and her gaze is directed thoughtfully toward the side, creating an intimate and introspective mood. The lighting is expertly crafted with a single soft, directional light source positioned to the side, casting gentle shadows that sculpt her form and highlight the texture of the knitwear and the natural contours of her legs and arms. This chiaroscuro effect enhances the depth and dimensionality of the image, emphasizing the softness of her skin and the intricate weave of the sweater. The background is a smooth, muted dark gray, providing a minimalist and distraction-free backdrop that contrasts beautifully with her light-colored apparel and warm skin tones. *** The composition is a full-body vertical frame that captures the model’s seated posture with perfect balance, positioning her slightly off-center to create visual interest and harmony. The overall color palette is subdued and warm, featuring neutral tones that evoke a sense of calm and understated elegance. The image is impeccably sharp, showcasing fine details such as the delicate waves of her hair, the subtle folds in the fabric, and the natural texture of her skin. The style is classic and timeless, blending modern minimalism with emotive portraiture to convey quiet strength, beauty, and introspection. Base Setup
keep 100 percent facial information adherence of the attached image and turn her into a girl standing beneath autumn leaves outside a traditional wooden structure in a live action photograph or movie still, wearing a complex suggestive outfit that harmonizes with the warm fall tones.

Shot and Camera
Three quarter shot at slightly low height, framing her off center to the right so the yellow leaves and carved wooden panels dominate the left. Maintain the intimate close framing and vertical orientation feel of the reference.

Identity and Pose
Preserve her age read, build, silhouette, hairstyle length, and skin tone. She leans lightly against the doorframe, one hand grazing a hanging leaf, her posture relaxed and candid, 8k Photorealistic and hyper realistic.

Lighting and Environment
Soft warm daylight filters through the leaves, casting dappled highlights on her hair and outfit. Ground her feet on aged wooden flooring with natural grain, faint scuffs, and subtle contact shadows.

Masking and Constraints
Change only wardrobe and placement while keeping lighting, perspective, white balance, pose, face geometry, body proportions, and silhouette the same. Absolutely no added text, no CGI look, no plastic skin, no floating feet, with consistent perspective and correct contact shadows. Highly detailed, artistic illustration of two cats sitting together on the bustling Nathan Road in Hong Kong. One cat is a sleek black feline with emerald green eyes, the other is a fluffy ginger tabby with white paws. They are perched near the neon-lit storefronts and glowing billboards, surrounded by vibrant city life: crowds of people, bright taxis, and street vendors selling local food. The scene is alive with colorful reflections on rain-slicked pavement, atmospheric mist, and dramatic lighting from neon signs in Chinese characters. The artistry should blend urban realism with a touch of whimsical charm, focusing on the cats' expressive faces and the dynamic ambiance of Nathan Road at night.
