This certificate awards Xuan Hoang the Fred Green Memorial Prize for being the highest achieving engineering student in their final year at Swinburne University of Technology in 2015. The prize was established in 1962 by Swinburne College of Technology to honor Fred Green, the former Director from 1928-1950, and recognizes excellence in engineering studies.
This document summarizes the evolution of reducing valves for anesthetic gases from simple early designs to more advanced modern valves. Early simple valves had problems with frequent adjustment needs and difficult fine tuning. Improved designs incorporated springs or diaphragms to better control the reduced pressure output. Later improvements included using stronger diaphragm materials, adjustable high pressure settings, and mechanisms to minimize changes in reduced pressure as the high pressure cylinder pressure decreased. Modern reducing valves provide more stable output pressures, eliminate the need for periodic adjustments, and enable the use of gases with ventilators and other respiratory devices.

LPG Go Dau - LPG tank supported column structural calculationHenry Hoang
The document discusses the design of the foundation for an LPG storage tank. It includes information on the structure, materials, design standards, software, and load cases considered. A STAAD Pro model of the foundation is presented, showing the element types and node numbering. Design loads include self-weight, internal LPG pressure, hydrostatic pressure, and wind loads according to Vietnamese standards. Results of the STAAD analysis are presented, including member forces and displacements.
The document provides training information for bonding AMERON's Bondstrand fiberglass pipe products. It discusses the purpose and requirements to obtain a bonding certificate, AMERON's Bondstrand product lines and joining systems, adhesive systems and tools used, health and safety considerations including proper personal protective equipment, and guidelines for receiving and handling the fiberglass pipe products. The training is intended to qualify bonders and provide knowledge on AMERON's products and proper fabrication and installation techniques.
This document outlines the controls for welding consumables at the Dung Quat Refinery Project. It discusses responsibilities for monitoring consumables, proper storage according to manufacturer recommendations, drying and keeping electrodes warm as specified, and issuing electrodes only with approved request slips. Welding foremen must ensure unused electrodes are returned daily and the material controller will separate for re-drying or disposal. Logs are maintained to record baking, issuing, and returns of welding materials. The goal is to provide welders with quality electrodes to achieve high quality welds and safe plant operations.
LPG Go Dau - Pump house structural calculationHenry Hoang
This document provides design calculations for the structural elements of a pump house and LPG vapor compression facility. It includes details on the structure's materials and design standards, soil conditions, modeling assumptions, and load cases considered. Load cases include dead loads from roofing/finishes, equipment, and structural members, as well as live loads. The results of the structural analysis and design of foundations, columns, beams, and connections are also summarized. The software programs STAAD.Pro and MIDAS SET were used for the structural modeling and analysis.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. It states that regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that make one feel happier and more relaxed and can have significant long-term effects on reducing symptoms of mental illnesses.
PipeTrak IT is a web-based pipeline construction management software that tracks materials, activities, quality, and documentation. It manages progress, cost, and quality through features like material reconciliation, activity tracking, progress tracking for each construction phase, quality assurance for welding including root cause analysis, and GIS mapping of the pipeline route and activities. All documentation such as daily reports, photos, and procedures are centralized for inspection and management access.
The document discusses a music group called The Chantays and an election company that serves clubs, credit unions, and associations. It provides contact information for the election company via email.
The document discusses the design of a natural gas pipeline from Farmington, New Mexico to Seattle, Washington. It outlines the key components of pipeline systems including pipes, compressor stations, metering stations, valves, and control systems. The document then describes the methodology used to design the pipeline, which included calculating pipe length and number of compressor stations needed based on flow equations, cities' distances and elevations. Finally, it presents the results of a cost analysis which recommended a 20-inch diameter pipeline with 6 compressor stations as the most economical solution.
This document outlines the design of oil and gas pipelines. It discusses several load considerations that must be accounted for in pipeline design, including internal fluid pressure, external fluid pressure, and loads from soil and other external sources for buried pipelines. The document provides equations and examples for calculating stresses and loads from various pressure sources and soil conditions. It also categorizes pipeline design based on operating pressure and discusses specific considerations for high, low, and intermediate pressure pipelines.
