Consideration of Collision Damage in FPSO Structural Design
Abstract: AbstractA collision event may be catastrophic for an offshore facility or a floating production, storage and offloading unit (FPSO). Depending on the size and speed of the impacting ship, anything from damage to hull rupture, oil pollution, flooding, loss of buoyancy, capsizing, and sinking may occur. Supply vessels and tankers frequently visit the FPSO to transport consumables and chemicals and, consequently, there is a risk of collision between two structures. …

A Critical Review on Semi-solid and Solid Lubricants for Industrial Applications
Abstract: Friction materials are very important for the safe moving of automobiles and the safety of people. As the pad slides against its match, the moving energy is turned into heat by the friction. As the vehicle's speed is lost as heat in the pads and rotors, the friction at the contact slows it down. Lubricants are compounds that are applied to moving parts to reduce friction and wear. Used primarily …

How to be A Successful Entrepreneur?
Abstract: The term entrepreneur appears to have been introduced by Richard Cantillon, an Irish economist of French descent, in early 1700. According to Cantillon's original formulation, the entrepreneur is a specialist in taking on risk. He insures workers by buying their products (or their labor services) for resale before consumers have indicated how much they are willing to pay for them. Entrepreneurship thus calls for a gut feel for things, a …
