Despite significant efforts to improve safety, occupational accidents continue to occur at an unacceptable rate. Most research attempts to convince stakeholders that the problem can be solved by improvements in a particular area, such as protective equipment, corporate safety culture, or training. This work adopts the alternative approach that accident causation is holistic and also includes unconventional external influencing factors such as the price of oil and societal value placed on life. This book reviews approaches to accident causation and modelling taken by researchers over the past half century. An analysis of current statistics is presented, which demonstrates significant differences in accident rates between regions and...

The category does not include ferries or other vessels engaged in short-sea trading, nor dedicated cruise ships where the voyage itself, and not transportation, is the prime purpose of the trip.

The Ocean Surface Topography Mission (OSTM) on the Jason-2 satellite is an international Earth observation satellite mission that continues the sea surface height measurements begun in 1992 by the joint NASA/CNES TOPEX/Poseidon mission and followed by the NASA/CNES Jason-1 mission launched in 2001. Like its two predecessors, OSTM/Jason-2 uses high-precision ocean altimetry to measure the distance between the satellite and the ocean surface to within a few centimeters. These very accurate observations of variations in sea surface height—also known as ocean topography—provide information about global sea level, the speed and direction of ocean currents, and heat stored in the ocean....

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Ocean-type ships of the line were a series of 16 first-rate 118-gun ships of the line of the French navy, designed by engineer Jacques-Noel Sane. Fifteen were completed from 1788 on, with the last one entering service in 1854. The first of the series was the Commerce de Marseille. The 5,100 ton 118-gun type was the largest type of ship built up to then. Up to 1790 Great Britain, the largest of the battle fleet nations, had not built especially large battleships because the need for large numbers of ships had influenced its battleship policy. The French initiated a new phase in battleship competition when they laid down a large number of three-deckers of around 5,000 tons. Данное...
