This means a larger vessel than a sailboat.
I think its dorsal. REALLY sure.
A vessel is defined as "any craft larger than a row boat". So a yacht fits well within the definition of a vessel.
The vessel with a larger lumen would be a vein, as veins have thinner walls and larger lumens compared to arteries. This allows veins to accommodate more blood flow.
Blood vessel radius has a larger effect on the body because changes in radius significantly impact blood flow resistance, which affects blood pressure regulation and delivery of oxygen and nutrients to tissues. Vessel length, on the other hand, has a smaller direct effect on blood flow resistance and overall cardiovascular function.
OV 104 means Orbiter Vehicle-104. NASA's fourth space-rated space shuttle, OV-104 "Atlantis," was named after the two-masted boat that served as the primary research vessel for the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute in Massachusetts from 1930 to 1966. The boat had a 17-member crew and accommodated up to five scientists who worked in two onboard laboratories, examining water samples and marine life. The crew also used the first electronic sounding devices to map the ocean floor. Source available in related links
arteries
by dilating the blood vessel with the introduction of larger and larger stiff catheters through the narrowed space. The complications that resulted from this approach led researchers to develop ways to open the vessel with smaller devices
Size is one factor determining right of way, with the smaller vessel given right to the route they have taken. The larger vessel would obviously need to be vigilant to the sudden appearance of smaller craft.
Angioplasty was originally performed by dilating the vessel with the introduction of larger and larger stiff catheters through the narrowed space
Offshore patrol vessels have much deeper hulls, and tend to be larger vessels, overall. An offshore vessel has to deal with weather conditions a river patrol vessel will not have to, and generally stays out for longer periods of time.
According to the Dictionary.com; Vessel is a craft for traveling on water, now usually one larger than an ordinary rowboat; a ship or boat. It can be a ship or boat or bucket.
