چکیده

This paper presents ExxonMobil’s evolution of a direct sloshing assessment methodology to resolve several challenging technical issues that are essential for evaluating the integrity of LNG containment systems. Among the most significant developments is the introduction of a probabilistic-based framework that facilitates modeling of the high variability of sloshing impact pressures due to sloshing physics and insulation materials that is inherent in products from natural sources (e.g. plywood, etc.). This probabilistic-based framework also provides the basis for a reliability-based assessment of structural integrity. In addition, this methodology furthered the technical basis of the Scaling Law that supports the use of the sloshing test as the method for prediction of design sloshing loads; addressed tank sloshing and ship motion coupling effects in deriving inputs to drive the sloshing test rig; demonstrated the influence of membrane surface structures on sloshing pressures; and developed limit state structural capacities as a function of a loaded area. The authors are hopeful that this methodology enhances the foundation for achieving continuous safe operation of LNG carriers and enables sound design of offshore LNG loading and receiving terminals.

Molecular analysis of Rh transcripts and polypeptides from individuals expressing the DVI variant phenotype: an RHD gene deletion event does not generate All DVIccEe phenotypes.

The D antigen is a mosaic comprising at least 30 epitopes. Partial Rh D phenotypes occur when there is absence of one or more of these epitopes, with the remainder expressed. The DVI phenotype is the most common of the partial D phenotypes, lacking most D antigen epitopes (ep D) (epD1, 2, 5-8 using the 9-epitope model or epD 1-4, 7-22, 26-29 using the 30-epitope model). DVI mothers may become i...

Rearrangements of the blood group RhD gene associated with the DVI category phenotype.

The Rh (Rhesus) blood group antigens, D, Cc, and Ee, are carried by three unglycosylated membrane proteins of the human erythrocytes encoded by two highly related genes, D and CcEe. The major antigen, D, is a mosaic composed of at least nine determinants (epD1 through epD9). The lack of expression of some of these D epitopes at the surface of variant red blood cells defines the so-called D cate...

Comparison Of Direct Visual Inspection (DVI) With Pap Smear In Diagnosis Of Precancerous Lesion Of Cervix

The aim of this study was to compare direct visual inspection (DVI) with Pap smear in diagnosis of precancerous lesion of cervix. A total of 1500 women were screened cytologically as well as clinically with direct visual inspection of cervix after application of acetic acid (DVI). A total of 1500 women were screened cytologically as well as clinically with direct visual inspection of cervix aft...

Three molecular structures cause rhesus D category VI phenotypes with distinct immunohematologic features.

Rhesus D category VI (DVI) is the clinically most important partial D. DVI red blood cells were assumed to possess very low RhD antigen density and to be caused by two RHD-CE-D hybrid alleles. Because there was no population-based work-up, we screened three populations in central Europe for DVI. Twenty-six DVI samples were detected and examined by exon-specific RHD polymerase chain reaction wit...

A Device Independent DVI Interpreter Library for Various Output Devices

In this paper, we describe DVIlib, which is a device independent DVI interpreter library written in C developed by the author. Since DVIlib is completely independent from specific output devices, new printer drivers and previewers (DVIware) can be easily developed. DVIlib is a set of functions to read and render DVI files. To render a page, DVIlib generates a bitmap for each character in a page...
