Binnentank shipping has been and is, like no other, influenced by a single cargo, by its economic fluctuations and by its particular danger potential. Heidbrink explores this special field of shipping, both technical and economic and political developments, devotes himself to the history and special conditions of the transport of dangerous goods. In addition, he is also paying attention to the spectacular disasters and the safety regulations developed as well as the living and working conditions on board. Even almost forgotten waterways, which were of great importance for the development of the industrial city of Germany, are presented.

Abstract: The problem of how to manage those prisoners who refuse to conform to standard prison rules and regulations has received considerable attention recently, particularly in Britain and in North America. This article describes some of the strategies adopted in Canada and the United States and contrasts them with developments in Scotland. It concludes that there should be a prior statement of the objective of any alternative unit for this type of prisoner, that its regime should be clearly defined, that a clear definition of what constitutes a difficult or dangerous prisoner should be agreed and that the wider implications of managing this type of prisoner should be publicly appreciated.

Big cities confront several transportation concerns, including traffic congestion, air pollution, public transportation availability, and infrastructural issues. City governments must provide residents with the best solution to these problems. The goal of this study is to examine the development of smart transportation in smart cities. Smart transportation is the most significant functional feature of any smart city, as it provides high-quality, environmentally friendly transportation serving a specific population. It encompasses a variety of forms of transportation, including walking, biking, carsharing, and public transportation. This research focuses on the question of whether various modes of smart transportation can resolve Belgrade's persistent transportation problem. Firstly, we define smart cities, smart transportation, smart mobility, and sustainable urban mobility. The evolution of smart transport requires changes in spatial planning, which include monitoring people's mobility (sensors), and their (non-)retention in squares and other public places, and developing these locations to meet residents' demands. Secondly, we consult data on smart cities like Copenhagen, Vienna, and Ljubljana in order to develop the optimal scenario for our case study of Belgrade as a smart city in the transportation field.

With the treatment of waste set to increase -- since the volume of waste is closely related to economic growth -- waste transport will be a major challenge in the future. This raises several issues. Should transport regulations be made more stringent and their implementation reviewed? Should the proximity principle -- incorporated in the regulations in the interests of environmental protection -- be questioned, since it prevents the consolidation of flows in sufficient volume to make the most environmentally-friendly modes of transport viable?. The environmental performance of waste transport

Abstract - This paper reviews the existing treatment of the Republic of Croatia within the EU transport system. Additionally, a series of activities has been proposed with the aim of providing adequate transport accessibility and thereby also the basics for the dynamical economic development of the whole Republic of Croatia with a particular emphasis on the County of Primorje and Gorski kotar and the port of Rijeka.
