The cJoy wing terminal - cJoy WT (cWing) - has been designed and developed to serve as a remote joystick terminal in stand-alone joystick systems (cJoy) and DPS, i.e. dynamic positioning systems (cPos and K-Pos). The wing terminal provides all necessary facilities for manual joystick and automatic heading operations, and is designed for installation in an outside environment.

The layout of the wing terminal panel is divided into three main areas where controls and indicators are arranged according to their function. A must-have document for all personnel directly involved in the operation and maintenance of the subject systems.

The book opens with a section dedicated to the general differential equations relevant to the dynamics of ships, and the aim of this section is the derivation of the equations covering the general body motion in both inertial and body-fixed reference systems with/without principle axis; here, the author has paid particular attention to the acting forces and moments that commonly arise from the acceleration through the water.

The second section addresses the equations related to the maneuvering of the vessels with three freedom degrees, including systems of coordinates, aims and assumptions of the ship maneuvering theory, all equations and exercises for easier understanding of the theory. The next section is dealing with the determination of the added masses, while the fourth section describes the steady maneuvering forces, including their representation and experimental determination, again with some exercises.

The sixth section covers the forces acting on the ship rudders including their general representation and determination of the associated coefficients plus the interaction between the propeller and rudder of the vessel. The remaining sections of the volume are dealing with the yaw stability, transversal forces acting on propeller plus the associated yaw moment, maneuverability diagram, application of CFD methods for the maneuverability problems, and other valuable and important information.

Very rare book first published in 1885, now digitized by Google, Legends and Superstitions of the Sea and of Sailors in All Lands and at All Times was written by Fletcher S. Bassett, Lieutenant of U.S. Navy. It is culturally important as it sheds the light on many almost loss myths and stories related to the sailing.

The characters involved include the Gods, Saints and Demons of the sea, wind-makers and storm-raisers, sea monsters and sea serpents, sea-giants and dwarfs, storm-raising deeds, and many others. It also tells the reader about sacrifices, offerings and oblations, ceremonies and festivals, as well as famous sea voyages.

Introduction; Product description; Safety guideline; Control and operating elements; Crane operation; Emergency operation; Maintenance; General drawings; Hydraulic drawings; Electric drawings; Electronic; Additional documentation. Electrical symbols list, hydraulic diagram and various training materials included.

The technical documentation provided for this machine will enable the users to operate it in a safe manner, use the machine competently for all applications and perform regular maintenance. While the operating manual itself is mainly dedicated to the starting-up, operation and maintenance the second volume provides required information about the hydraulic and electrical systems...

This is a pack of technical documentation relating to the operation and maintenance of Liebherr CBW 40 cargo deck crane. It consists of three documents. First is the instruction and maintenance manual covering general technical description and also covering the important routine maintenance issues.

The second file also contains some general information followed with the description of hydraulic functions, emergency operations and complete set of drawings. The last, third, document, contains photos with hydraulic symbols, pressure limitations, direction valves, hydraulic motors, hoisting , slew and luffing gear etc.

Two documents contained in this pack provide all necessary instructions on the maintenance of the LCBW 45(40)32/20(24,4)27,5 ST type Liebherr cranes. It was specifically develop to provide the crew members as well as all technical personnel engaged in maintenance/operation of these cranes, with necessary knowledge of technical peculiarities and all other information required for the safe operation.

The first document contains the chapters 1 to 3, i.e. the introductory chapter, chapter with general description of the cranes and their parts, and maintenance instructions. The second document contains the other four chapters providing the technical description, descriptions of the hydraulic functions, instructions on the operations in case of emergency, and a full set of drawings. The readers will for sure find everything they need in this set of files and thorough familiarization with the info provided herein will provide safe and harm-free operation/maintenance of these Liebherr cranes.

Apart from the technical data, the pack provides general advice and valuable hints for crane operators, standard hand signals, conversion tables, explanation of safety signs etc.

The main purpose of the author of this publication was to provide all interested people with some sort of guide to safe and efficient transportation of the LPG and ammonia; up to now, the coverage of ammonia transportation has never been covered in any single book. We do hope that it will be very useful not only to the personnel directly involved in operating the gas carriers but also to the operating staff of the gas terminals where such products are handled.

Though some treatment has been provided to the equipment used, this publication shall not be considered as the pure technical guide. The author tried to  examine the most important technical problems associated with the transportation and handling of the LPG/ammonia cargoes and cover some technical aspects of the running of LPG carriers. It shall be noted that at all stages the detail procedures to follow are depending upon the conditions under which the cargo will be loaded/discharged and carried - this can be done with the gas being fully-pressurized, semi-pressurized or fully-refrigerated (at regular atmospheric pressure).

The book is arranged in three parts, first two deal with the pressurized and fully-refrigerated ships while the third part concentrates on the cargo calculations, safety matters and recommendations. The technical information is supplemented with the glossary of the terms used.

There were numerous significant changes that occurred to the global maritime security; while some of these changes were necessary and even overdue, others did result in the situations where beneficiaries were the providers of the security services and associated equipment.

And against subject background, this publication is setting out to provide the reality check, bringing together a broad range of various perspectives of the critically important maritime issues collected from all parts of the world. The book contains chapters exploring the operational and also legal realities of the maritime security measures implemented straight after 9/11. The publication is mainly aimed at the people having serious interest in various dimensions of the newly introduced maritime security measures.

Above mentioned interest may be a general interest in the field of maritime security or a specific interest, for example ones directly relating to the implementation of ISPS Code, executing the practical security measures both in ports and at sea, or in the assessment of the potential security risks and threats treated as inherent in the realm of today's international shipping. The author of this volume strongly hope that the readers of all categories will find something of professional interest for them in the present document.
