Who builds cruise ships?

According to wikipedia modern cruise ships are primarily build by the following three European and one Asian ship yards:

The construction market for cruise ships is dominated by three European companies and one Asian company:

  • STX Europe of Norway with two shipyards:
    • STX Europe (the former Aker Yards/Kvaerner Masa-Yards/Wärtsilä, Valmet and Rauma Shipyards) in Finland.
    • Aker Yards France (Chantiers de l'Atlantique) in France.
  • Fincantieri of Italy.
  • Meyer Werft of Germany.
  • Mitsubishi Heavy Industries of Japan.

A large number of cruise ships have been built by other shipyards, but no other individual yard has reached the large numbers of built ships achieved by the four above. A handful of old ocean liners also remain in service as cruise ships. Despite the dominance of United States-based cruise ship operators and American clients in the industry, only one ship built in the United States, The Emerald, is still sailing.[citation needed]

Are airplanes air tight?

Most small airplanes are not air tight (or even completely encased) because thy do not need pressurization. Commercial planes fly at altitudes where there is not enough oxygen to sustain life, requiring pressurization.

What is an agar probe?

Agar probes are use in applications where there is an oil/water interface that needs to be monitored. Often in such interfaces an emulsion occurs (a mixture of oil and water droplets). Such emulsions make it difficult to determine between the emulsion and the pure water/ pure oil strata, using standard methods such as a float level. Agar probes emit microwaves, which are readily absorbed by water but not by oil. By measuring the level of microwave energy absorbed by the surrounding fluid the agar probe can be use to determine whether it is in a water, oil or emulsion strata. A typical application would be in the oil and gas production. The purpose here is to separate and remove pure water used in processing from waste oil. Since this water can be recycled for reuse in processing or even pumped back into the environment, it is important that only pure water and not oil or an oil/water emulsion is pumped from the seperator tanks. Agar probes are a reliable way of ensuring this.

What changes in agriculture occured in the 1800s as a result of advancements in science and technology?

One change in agriculture that occurred in the 1800's as a result of advancements in science and technology is large scale watering. Other are new crop varieties and inventions of farm machines.

What are the applications of quench and tempered steel plates?

applications of quenched steel plates

these are used to make dies for extrusion ,nozzles armour plates

temperd steel bars

they are used for deep drawing to form shapes and also to ships hulls , these are used where strength ductility are important

What is a blind elevator shaft?

A blind elevator shaft has a hoist-way door meaning that it won't stop on every floor like most elevators do. Most of these installations are used in buildings where celebrities or 'important' types of people want very little interaction with others or the general public.

What is the difference between HRC and CRC steel sheet?

What is the difference between HRC and CRC steel sheet?

Cold rolling is a metallurgical process in which metal is passed through a pair of rollers at a temperature below its recrystallization temperature. This process hardens the metal, by compressing and stretching the metal crystals. During the rolling process, the metal is annealed by heating it above the recrystallization temperature after every few rollings, to prevent it from becoming brittle and cracking.

Cold rolled metal is given a "temper" rating based on the degree it was compressed. "Skin-rolled" metal undergoes the least rolling, being compresssed only 0.5-1% to harden the surface of the metal and make it more easily workable for later processes. Higher ratings are "quarter hard," "half hard" and "full hard"; in the last of these, the metal is compressed by 50%. Metal hardened by cold rolling can bend without breaking, although ductility decreases as the hardness increases. Quarter hard metal can be bent entirely back on itself, while full hard can only be bent 45°.

Most non-ferrous metals are rolled cold to make sheet. Steel is usually rolled hot, except when thin sheet or special bars such as machine shafts are being produce

The metallurgical process of Hot rolling, used mainly to produce sheet metal or simple cross sections from billets describes the method of when industrial metal is passed or deformed between a set of work rolls and the temperature of the metal is generally above its recrystallization temperature, as opposed to cold rolling, which takes place below this temperature. This permits large deformations of the metal to be achieved with a low number of rolling cycles.

Because the metal is worked before crystal structures have formed, this process does not itself affect its microstructural properties. Hot rolling is primarily concerned with manipulating material shape and geometry rather than mechanical properties. This is achieved by heating a component or material to its upper critical temperature and then applying controlled load which forms the material to a desired specification or size.

Mechanical properties of the material in its final as-rolled form is a function of: the material chemistry, reheat temperature, rate of temperature decrease during deformation, rate of deformation, heat of deformation, total reduction, recovery time, recrystallisation time, and subsequent rate of cooling after deformation

What do you mean by rowlock header soldier sailor shiner or rowlock stretcher and stretcher?

Masonry units can be laid in several positions. For example, think of a pair of dice. Each face has a separate number on it. A brick is similar, but there are only 3 faces that are different sizes (since the direct oposite side is the same dimension) and each of those faces can be installed in two directions for a total of six different positions. These positions are called stretcher, header, rowlock, shiner, soldier, and sailer.

What is the allowable shear stress for EN8 steel?

66N/Sq.MM in varying condition and 100 N/Sq. MM in Steady condition for mild steel as per cmti hand book pg. 685

What is cyber rig in oil and gas industry?

Cyber-Rig is a physical model of a semi-submersible drilling unit. The model has eight rotatable azimuth thrusters, two on each leg. The task in control allocation is to generate the generalized forces (surge, sway, yaw, pitch and roll) the controller specifies with the available control effectors/actuators. As a specified force vector can be generated in several different ways, the secondary objective in control allocation is to minimize some criteria, for instance energy consumption.

What is the definition of foundry technology?

Foundry is a technology of casting metals into shapes by melting them into a liquid, pouring the metal in a mold, and removing the mold material or casting after the metal has solidified as it cools.

What are the typical ways of communicating technical information and how much detail should be included?

Many ways are used to communicate technical information, such as, oral and written

In all cases enough detail must be included to fully understand without confusion.

How do you compute dredge volume using bathymetric survey?

Volume computation is based on following:

  • Pre dredge survey bathymetric data (reference)
  • Post dredge survey bathymetric data
  • Channel design ( to calculate Cut and Fill)

Once you have all the prerequisite data, you can use and hydrography processing software for comparing pro and post survey data to determine volume dredged or need to be dredged.

Can regrind thermoplastic and thermosetting why?

Technically, A thermoset cannot be reused since it forms a structure that does not remelt easily and remelting this material can result in degradation and molecular weight changes. A thermoplastic however can be reused when mixed with a percentage of virgin material. This is the large benefit of utilizing a thermoplastic over a thermoset.

Bethlehem Steel what year did the blast furnaces at johnstown pa shut down?

E furnace (made ferro manganese) and L furnace were shut down the night of July 20, 1977 due to the Johnstown Flood that caused the plant to lose power and water damage which caused the blowing turbines to shut down.

H furnace was saved due to it being relined in 1976 and was idle when when the flood struck. H was restarted and operated until Aug 1981 when it was abandoned when Johnstown was changed to electric steelmaking furnaces.

H furnace was never fully tapped out. It was torn down and the iron that was left in the hearth is still visible. It was said that iron recovery was attempted, but it

was unsuccessful so it was left as a sort of monument.
