2011 07 Cloud Service Contracts Get Stormy FinalMichele Hudnall
In the rush to the cloud, many business leaders are heading for trouble. Companies that don’t follow a roadmap or set up a safety net are driving off a cliff, encountering service failures that threaten viability. First businesses need to assess services for cost, value and risk to develop the roadmap that considers short- and long-term costs and savings. Second, businesses must build the safety net in terms of a service contract that outlines expectations for quality, performance, responsiveness, support, disruption and end of contract. This session will discuss the strategy for developing a service roadmap, contract and how to measure and govern the service provider, ensuring perception is reality.

Stork Webinar | Wetgeving en reductie van schadelijke emissies - 5 juni 2024Stork
De wetgeving op het terrein van emissies wordt alsmaar scherper. Het Europees Parlement heeft afgelopen november een voorlopig politiek akkoord bereikt over de verordening om methaanuitstoot in de olie-, gas- en steenkoolsector te verminderen. Met deze verordening zullen exploitanten lekken moeten opsporen, rapporteren en repareren volgens ambitieuze tijdschema's en reparatietijden.
Maar ook emissies van andere vluchtige koolwaterstoffen en in ander sectoren leveren onveilige situaties en milieuschade op. Bij bijna 5% van de installatiecomponenten komen immers ongewenste emissies vrij.
In dit webinar bespreken experts Geert-Henk Wijnants en Sebastiaan Niessen de regelgeving, voorschriften en methoden die helpen om onbedoelde lekkages bij flenzen te ontdekken, verhelpen en voorkomen. Dit alles met het doel om, met een structurele aanpak, ongewenste verliezen, onveilige situaties en milieuschade te voorkomen en ‘in control’ te komen.
Stork webinar | Voordelen van een deaerator retrofitStork
Veel bedrijven hebben tray-type ontgassers in bedrijf en weten niet dat de relatief eenvoudige ombouw naar spray-type ontgassers tot enorme besparingen kan leiden!
Het ombouwen van een tray-type naar een spray-type ontgasser resulteert in betere prestaties, lagere TCO (geen onderhoudsvereisten) en verbeterde duurzaamheid. Het leidt tot een lager energieverbruik, minder stoomverlies en de overbodigheid van zuurstofafvangers, wat milieuvervuiling tegen gaat. Dit ombouwproces is minder ingewikkeld en heeft een kortere terugverdientijd dan je zou denken.
In dit webinar bespreken Joyce Logman en Alex Heino de voordelen van de ontgasser ombouw op de bovengenoemde onderdelen. Zij leggen uit welk effect de overstap van tray-type naar spray-type heeft op duurzaamheid en potentiële kostenbesparingen. Daarnaast wordt er besproken hoe een retrofit er grofweg uitziet, van engineering tot inbedrijfstelling.
In dit webinar gaan we in op business ecosystemen: netwerken van mensen en organisaties met een gemeenschappelijk doel, zoals het faciliteren van de energietransitie. Bijvoorbeeld het ecosysteem voor de ontwikkeling van de waardeketen rondom waterstof. Met ecosystemen kun je producten en services van partners tot een unieke overkoepelende (ecosysteem) waardepropositie combineren. Hoe sterker het ecosysteem, hoe groter de mogelijke waarde en concurrentievoordeel.
In dit webinar geven Johan Ferket en Niels Meerdink antwoord op de vragen:
• Wat is een business ecosteem?
• Wat zijn de voordelen van werken met ecosystemen?
• Wat zijn uitdagingen en valkuilen?
• Welke succesvolle voorbeelden zijn er?
Na dit webinar weet je wat de waarde kan zijn van business ecosystemen in bijvoorbeeld de energietransitie.
Improving Asset Management performance using Balanced Scorecards
Managing the performance of an asset-intensive organization is a strategic activity. The crucial aspect of performance management is the alignment of the strategies at the corporate level with those at the functional/operational level. We also include asset management at this functional level. The purpose of using Balanced ScoreCards (BSC) is to effectively manage the mission, vision, purpose, goals and objectives within an organization.
In this webinar, Stork AMT provides an outline of how the effective use of Balanced Scorecards can help organizations align their asset management strategy with the organizational strategy and how the BSC can help translate asset management objectives into tangible , recognizable actions, where you maintain a balance between costs, risks and performance.
In dit derde webinar in deze serie over waterstof staan we stil bij de consequenties van de introductie van waterstof voor jou als asset manager en voor jouw organisatie.
Bram Hes en Martijn Holt gaan in dit webinar onder meer in op de volgende vragen:
- Wat zijn de voornaamste uitdagingen bij de introductie van waterstof, afhankelijk van de positie in de waardeketen?
- Wat is het tijdspad en wanneer moet je beginnen?
- Hoe bereid je je voor op de introductie van waterstof? Waar moet je aan denken?
- Hoe ziet een roadmap voor jouw type organisatie eruit?
In dit tweede webinar in een serie van drie over waterstof staan we stil bij competenties die noodzakelijk zijn om de waterstof-(r)evolutie waar te kunnen maken. Willem Hazenberg geeft in dit webinar onder meer antwoord op de volgende vragen:
- Wat is het effect van de groeiende waterstofindustrie op de werkgelegenheid?
- Welke functies zijn er nodig en momenteel beschikbaar in de waterstofindustrie en -netwerken?
- Wat zijn de vereisten voor deze functies qua opleidingsniveau?
- Wat zijn de essentiële basiskennis, vaardigheden en specifieke competenties en hoe kunnen deze het meest effectief worden aangeleerd?
- Tot welke diepte moet men kennis hebben over waterstoftechnologie om een effectieve bijdrage aan de industrie te kunnen leveren?
De laatste ontwikkelingen in de waterstofmarkt.Stork
De introductie van nieuwe energievormen leidt vrijwel altijd tot kip-ei discussies ten aanzien van vraag, aanbod, infrastructuur en benodigde competenties. Dit was en is het geval bij elektrisch rijden, en ook nu bij waterstof. Wat betekent dit voor u als asset owner of asset manager? Dit is een van de vragen die aan bod komen in onze serie webinars over waterstof.
In dit eerste webinar van de serie staan we stil bij de laatste stand van zaken rondom de waterstof initiatieven in de Benelux.
Grip krijgen op ongewenste emissies bij flensverbindingen.
Bij bijna 5% van de installatiecomponenten komen immers ongewenste emissies vrij. Als die emissies vluchtige koolwaterstoffen zijn, dan leveren ze, naast potentieel onveilige situaties, hoogstwaarschijnlijk ook schade op voor het milieu.
In dit webinar bespreken experts Sebastiaan Niessen en Quinten Hoven methoden en technieken die je kunnen helpen om onbedoelde lekkages bij flenzen te voorkomen en, wanneer er lekkage optreedt, deze zo snel mogelijk te ontdekken en te verhelpen. Dit alles met het doel om, met een structurele aanpak, ongewenste verliezen, onveilige situaties en milieuschade te voorkomen.
Webinar | Digitale transformatie in the praktijk: de pompskidStork
Pompskid: de praktijk van het gebruik van data voor inzicht in de prestaties van assets.
Dit derde webinar in een serie van drie over digitale transformatie kent een heel praktisch karakter. Tijdens de presentatie laten we in samenwerking met IBM zien wat er mogelijk is op het gebied van gebruik van data voor prestatieverbetering van assets.
In samenwerking met Corevision, ABB en IBM heeft Stork heeft een pompopstelling gebouwd. Op deze pompskid zijn slimme sensoren beschikbaar om innovaties te testen. Er wordt gebruik gemaakt van software van IBM om de gegevens te analyseren en te visualiseren en van hardware van CoreVision om gegevens naar het IBM-platform in bruikbaar formaat te sturen.
Ludolf Pijpker toont de mogelijkheden van dit platform met de pompskid. Hiernaast geeft hij een demo van een Holo-lens applicatie. Vervolgens licht Ronald Teijken een aantal use cases toe over Maximo Visual Inspection (MVI) aan de hand van de pompskid. Ook demonstreert hij hoe MVI met gebruik van Artificial Intelligence (AI) afwijkingen kan ontdekken en dus visuele inspecties kan vervangen.
Er zijn veel verschillende definities en interpretaties van een Digital Twin - een digitale tweeling - dus het kan zijn dat niet iedereen hetzelfde beeld heeft over wat het is, waar het voor wordt gebruikt, wat er mee mogelijk is en hoe het mogelijk voor jou werkt.
In dit Webinar maak je kennis met het begrip Digital Twin en de toegevoegde waarde ervan, met name in de Operate & Maintain fase van een levenscyclus van een Asset. We geven antwoord op vragen zoals:
- welke elementen zitten er in de Digital Twin
- wat is er op de markt
- welke voorbeelden van implementaties zijn er
- wat de link is met Industrie 4.0
- wat is de toegevoegde waarde.
Stork Webinar | Digital Transformation AssessmentStork
In dit webinar wordt aan de hand van voorbeelden uit de praktijk uitgelegd hoe een assessment kan helpen jouw positie op ladder van digitalisering binnen asset management te bepalen, om doelstellingen vast te leggen om tot een pragmatische aanpak te komen en hoe de gaten te overbruggen tussen doelstelling en praktijk met acties die reëel, praktisch en geprioriteerd zijn.
In this webinar, Alex Heino discusses the function of the deaerator and the different types of deaerators with their characteristics.
He explains the effect switching from tray type to spray type has on performance, sustainability and potential cost savings.
He also provides guidance on your business case for converting from a tray to a spray type deaerator.
Het derde en laatste webinar over in deze serie over decarbonisering staat in het teken van de financiën: budget en Return-on-Investment. Principal consultant Joris Grimbergen bespreekt hoe u bepaalt welke investeringen het meeste effect hebben op uw CO2-uitstoot en in welke mate zij ook bijdragen aan uw andere businessdrivers.
Stork webinar | Decarbonisering: aanpak en toolingStork
n dit tweede van drie webinars over decarbonisering van de industrie kijken we vanuit het Asset Management perspectief naar een aanpak en tooling die van pas komen bij decarbonisering.
Bram Hes en Bart Desmet, consultants bij Stork Asset Management Technology, schetsen de aanpak voor 'decarbonisering masterplanning' en verschillende tools die je in het Asset management proces rondom decarbonisering kunt gebruiken.
In dit eerste van drie webinars over decarbonisering van de industrie kijken we vanuit het Asset Management perspectief naar de ontwikkelingen die de energietransitie en circulaire economie met zich meebrengen. Bram Hes en Jack Doomernik, consultants bij Stork Asset Management Technology, schetsen de noodzaak en urgentie en hoe hiermee kan worden omgegaan.
De aanpassingen aan uw installaties zijn veelal ingrijpend. Een goed inzicht in de urgentie is noodzakelijk om draagvlak te creëren in uw organisatie en alle initiatieven vanuit verschillende afdelingen op één lijn kunnen te krijgen.
Future-proof industrial assets with circular strategiesStork
Bijna de helft van de koolstof emissies is product gerelateerd en de beschikbaarheid van grondstoffen wordt steeds kritischer. Op weg naar een duurzame samenleving is het onvermijdelijk om de lineaire economie van “take-make-dispose” te doorbreken door de toepassing van circulaire strategieën. Maar wat betekent dit voor de industrie, en welke bijdrage kan Asset Management hieraan leveren?
In dit webinar schetsen Jack Doomernik en Erika Kuo mogelijke rollen die Asset Management kan spelen in circulariteit. Zij presenteren een aanpak met vier oplossingsrichtingen waarmee u uw uitdagingen in circulariteit te lijf kunt gaan
Webinar | Omgaan snel met veranderende wetgeving in duurzaamheid.pptxStork
De ontwikkeling van normen en wetgeving met betrekking tot duurzaamheid gaat razendsnel. Om als bedrijf compliant te zijn en te blijven is dan ook een flinke uitdaging. In dit webinar schetsen Bart Desmet en Geert-Henk Wijnants, principal consultants bij Stork Asset management Technology, een overzicht van wat er op Europees niveau op ons af komt. Ook gaan zij in op een gestructureerde aanpak waarmee bedrijven kunnen werken aan hun compliancy en hoe men ook in de toekomst de license to operate zeker kan stellen.
Hoe lossen we het tekort aan reliability & maintenance engineers op?Stork
De industrie kampt met een structureel tekort aan goed geschoold technisch personeel. Dit probleem verergert als gevolg van de grote groep technici die de komende jaren met pensioen gaat. In het onderhoud manifesteert dit zich ook in de beschikbaarheid van Maintenance en Reliability engineers. Cruciale functies voor gedegen onderhouds- en asset management. Dit tekort overstijgt markten en sectoren en manifesteert zich zowel bij asset owners en asset managers als bij consultancy dienstverleners en onderhoudsservice bedrijven.
In dit interactieve webinar gaan we nader in op deze problematiek en op mogelijke oplossingen, waaronder het concept van de een Stork- RE/ME academie. Dit nieuwe concept willen we met de webinar deelnemers bespreken en valideren.
Webinar: Hoe houdt u de marge op peil bij de huidige record hoge energieprijzenStork
De energiekosten schieten omhoog. De energiebudgetten worden zwaar overschreden en het einde is nog niet in zicht. Om de marges op peil te houden is ingrijpen op de kosten een belangrijke optie. Dat betekent: op zoek gaan naar besparingen en het elimineren van ‘waste’. Maar ook het her-prioriteren van geplande investeringen (CAPEX) en operationele verbeteringen (OPEX).
In dit webinar bieden Joris Grimbergen en Mario Idsinga handvatten om de stijgende energiekosten te compenseren.
Een Asset Management Health Check geeft een compleet beeld over de maturiteit van uw Asset Management Systeem. Het brengt sterke punten in kaart en identificeert de belangrijkste belemmeringen voor de uitvoering van uw Asset Management plannen.
In dit webinar bespreken Suna Taslidere en Roland Dols de aanpak voor deze Health Check die een oplossing biedt voor in kaart brengen van de belangrijkste verbeterpunten op vlak van Compliance, Strategy, Finance en Operations. Hiermee biedt dit proces waardevolle inzichten vanuit alle organisatie-perspectieven. Resultaten en verbeterinitiatieven zijn hierdoor inzichtelijk en krijgen meer draagvlak binnen diezelfde organisatie.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.
Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

Sachpazis:Terzaghi Bearing Capacity Estimation in simple terms with Calculati...Dr.Costas Sachpazis
Terzaghi's soil bearing capacity theory, developed by Karl Terzaghi, is a fundamental principle in geotechnical engineering used to determine the bearing capacity of shallow foundations. This theory provides a method to calculate the ultimate bearing capacity of soil, which is the maximum load per unit area that the soil can support without undergoing shear failure. The Calculation HTML Code included.
Hybrid optimization of pumped hydro system and solar- Engr. Abdul-Azeez.pdffxintegritypublishin
Advancements in technology unveil a myriad of electrical and electronic breakthroughs geared towards efficiently harnessing limited resources to meet human energy demands. The optimization of hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems plays a pivotal role in utilizing natural resources effectively. This initiative not only benefits humanity but also fosters environmental sustainability. The study investigated the design optimization of these hybrid systems, focusing on understanding solar radiation patterns, identifying geographical influences on solar radiation, formulating a mathematical model for system optimization, and determining the optimal configuration of PV panels and pumped hydro storage. Through a comparative analysis approach and eight weeks of data collection, the study addressed key research questions related to solar radiation patterns and optimal system design. The findings highlighted regions with heightened solar radiation levels, showcasing substantial potential for power generation and emphasizing the system's efficiency. Optimizing system design significantly boosted power generation, promoted renewable energy utilization, and enhanced energy storage capacity. The study underscored the benefits of optimizing hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems for sustainable energy usage. Optimizing the design of solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems as examined across diverse climatic conditions in a developing country, not only enhances power generation but also improves the integration of renewable energy sources and boosts energy storage capacities, particularly beneficial for less economically prosperous regions. Additionally, the study provides valuable insights for advancing energy research in economically viable areas. Recommendations included conducting site-specific assessments, utilizing advanced modeling tools, implementing regular maintenance protocols, and enhancing communication among system components.
