Book Tanker berthing evaluation full scale trial results employing the MSC tanker Yukon and a rotatable  right angle drive tugboat Tina

Download or read book Tanker berthing evaluation full scale trial results employing the MSC tanker Yukon and a rotatable right angle drive tugboat Tina written by Jerry P. Kelley and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The David W. Taylor Naval Ship Research and Development Center (DTNSRDC) conducted full-scale trials to gather tug/ship interaction forces developed by an advanced, right-angle drive tugboat (TINA) in maneuvering a tanker (YUKON). The overall intent of these trials is to modify the 'tug effect' subroutine at the Maritime Administration Computer Aided Operations Research Facility (CAORF) at Kings Point, New York by developing, from the full-scale trial data presented herein, percentage factors to discount nominal tug thrust under appropriate situations to approximate the effect of flow conditions around the tug propellers created by motion of the tug, or the position of the tug relative to the tanker.

Book Technical Basis for Maneuvering Performance Standards

Download or read book Technical Basis for Maneuvering Performance Standards written by and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of a set of maneuvering performance standards applicable to ocean-going and Great Lakes ships larger than 1000 metric tons (deadweight) is described. These standards, which are considered suitable for immediate use for rating ship maneuvering performance, are based on relative performance (superior through marginal) of the majority of ships, rather an absolute (go/no go) rating. The ratings are based on available full scale (builder's trials) data for more than 600 ships of various types. The ratings were determined from a straight forward analysis. The recommended rating system includes: a turning index, an overshoot angle index, a responsiveness index, and a stopping index; the trials agenda to obtain the indices is provided.

Book I Will Survive

Download or read book I Will Survive written by Gloria Gaynor and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2014-03-11 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I Will Survive is the story of Gloria Gaynor, America's "Queen of Disco." It is the story of riches and fame, despair, and finally salvation. Her meteoric rise to stardom in the mid-1970s was nothing short of phenomenal, and hits poured forth that pushed her to the top of the charts, including "Honey Bee," "I Got You Under My Skin," "Never Can Say Goodbye," and the song that has immortalized her, "I Will Survive," which became a #1 international gold seller. With that song, Gloria heralded the international rise of disco that became synonymous with a way of life in the fast lane - the sweaty bodies at Studio 54, the lines of cocaine, the indescribable feeling that you could always be at the top of your game and never come down. But down she came after her early stardom, and problems followed in the wake, including the death of her mother, whose love had anchored the young singer, as well as constant battles with weight, drugs, and alcohol. While her fans always imagined her to be rich, her personal finances collapsed due to poor management; and while many envied her, she felt completely empty inside. In the early 1980s, sustained by her marriage to music publisher Linwood Simon, Gloria took three years off and reflected upon her life. She visited churches and revisited her mother's old Bible. Discovering the world of gospel, she made a commitment to Christ that sustains her to this day.

Book Moon Face and Other Stories

Download or read book Moon Face and Other Stories written by Jack London and published by Lindhardt og Ringhof. This book was released on 2021-07-07 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We’ve all taken a dislike to someone for no real reason. But few of us nurture this hatred like the narrator of "Moon-Face". The target of his irrational malice is a man named John Claverhouse. With cold precision, the narrator sets to planning the man’s downfall. Why he has this urge, he can’t explain. But he knows he’ll feel immense satisfaction when John Claverhouse is made to suffer. In this macabre little tale, Jack London pinpoints a very common but unpleasant human trait. And then takes it to a horrifying extreme. This short story collection also includes "All Gold Canyon", which was adapted as part of the Netflix anthology movie "The Ballad of Buster Scruggs". Jack London (1876–1916) was one of the first American writers to achieve worldwide celebrity. He did so with rugged adventure stories set in forbidding landscapes. And heroes who survive by embracing their most primal instincts. His breakthrough best seller was "The Call of the Wild". Inspired by his time in the Klondike Gold Rush, this hard-hitting novel is told from the perspective of a sled dog named Buck. It’s inspired many adaptations, including a big-budget movie starring Harrison Ford. Among London’s other notable works are "White Fang", also featuring a canine protagonist, as well as "The Sea-Wolf", "Martin Eden" and "The Iron Heel".
