Chemical ships are not only exposed to risks at sea when sailing at sea; they are also dangerous in their own right. Rescue at sea is one of the most effective ways to reduce accidents. Therefore, this paper considers the three influencing factors of cost, risk, and maritime rescue resources, establishes a target model for minimizing the cost of transportation, and analyzes the Middle East-North East Asia route to obtain a route for chemical ship transportation that effectively avoids the risk zone, minimizes cost, and maximizes rescue. It provides a reference value for decision-makers to plan chemical transportation routes considering marine salvage resources.
As cruise ships call at many ports and passengers come from all over the world, it is very easy to carry viruses on cruise ships. Under the control of the epidemic situation on board, the solid waste generated by them should be scientifically treated to prevent the spread of infectious diseases such as COVID-19 pneumonia. Therefore, Reasonable selection of waste disposal ports and formulation of unloading plans are directly related to the resumption of cruise operations. This study considers the cost and risk of waste disposal, uses robust optimization to deal with waste volume, increases the scenarios of port service interruption due to epidemics and other reasons, and proposes a variety of emergency strategies. Finally, the relevant strategies are selected according to the decision-maker's preference for cost and risk; by solving the relevant examples, the optimal choice of the cruise ship waste disposal port under the epidemic situation is given, which verifies the validity and feasibility of the model. The research helps to improve the management of cruise waste during the post-epidemic period and has practical value and guiding significance for the normal operation and development of the global cruise market.
