Viking Princess is a liquefied natural gas (LNG)-driven multipurpose offshore vessel owned by Eidesvik Supply and operated by Eidesvik. She was delivered in September 2012 and is the sister ship to Viking Prince, which started sailing in March 2012.
Norwegian shipbuilder Kleven Maritime won a $77.28m (NOK440m) contract by Eidesvik back in July 2010 to build the two sister ships. The keel of the second vessel, Viking Princess, was laid in October 2011 in Kleven Maritime’s yard at Ulsteinvik, Ulstein, Norway. The vessel’s hull was launched in April 2012.
Viking Princess was officially christened by Mette-Marit, the Crown Princess of Norway, on 14 September 2012 in Bergen, Hordaland, Norway.
The vessel is of VS 489 Gas PSV design developed by Wärtsilä Ship Design and is built to DNV class 1A1 ICE-C Supply Vessel, Standby Vessel(S), Oil Rec, Gas Fuelled, and other notations.
Prominent features of the vessel include fuel economy, low emissions, large cargo capacity, oil recovery equipment and capacity for standby. Winterisation and de-icing solutions make her suitable for operations in ice and cold environments.
The vessel’s dual fuel engines allow her to operate on gas as well as heavy fuel oil (HFO) and marine diesel oil (MDO). It is only during LNG bunkering that the vessel uses diesel. The use of LNG will reduce NOx and CO2 emissions by 85% and 25% respectively.
Viking Princess has a gross tonnage of 5,014t and a dead weight of 5,800t. Her overall length, moulded breadth and summer draught are 89.6m, 21m and 7.6m respectively. Length between perpendiculars is 79.2m, while depth to main deck is 9.6m. Cargo deck area of the vessel is 1,050m2 and the height of the cargo rail is 4m.
Accommodation and facilities onboard the Viking Princess
The PSV can provide permanent accommodation for a total of 28 persons. It has four cabin states, 12 one-man cabins and six two-man cabins. All of them are provided with toilet and shower facilities.
Facilities on-board include a no-smokers room, smokers room, laundry and gymnasium. The vessel also has an office and a hospital.
Tank storage capacity and discharge rates
Storage capacities of tanks onboard the Viking Princess are 823m3 of fuel oil, 1,036m3 of fresh water, 1,781m3 of drill water/ballast, 1,392m3 of liquid mud, 210m3 of methanol, 300m3 of dry bulk, 1,667m3 of brine and 243m3 of base oil. The LNG tank can store 233m3.
The discharge rate of fuel oil, fresh water, drill water/ballast and base oil is 150m3/hr per pump. Liquid mud and base oil can be discharged at the rate of 100m3/hr per pump, while methanol and special products can be discharged at the rate of 75m3/hr per pump.
Tank washing is done with hot and cold water. Tanks containing mud, brine and base oil are washed with chemical blended water. All types of liquid cargo on-board the vessel are handled by separate pumps and piping system.
Viking Princess deck equipment
Viking Princess is fitted with two Adria tugger winches and two Adria mooring winches. An Adria anchor / mooring winch is installed forward. There are also two harbour mobile cranes (HMCs), each of which can lift 5t at a 15m outreach.
Viking Princess manoeuvring, navigation and communication systems
The PSV is provided with an integrated manoeuvring, dynamic positioning (DP) and vessel management system. Kongsberg has supplied its K-POS DP-22 DP system and K-Master manoeuvring system for the vessel. Wärtsilä Automation supplied the vessel management system comprising cargo handling and alarm.
The PSV can provide permanent accommodation for a total of 28 persons.
Navigation solution includes three gyrocompasses and an autopilot from Anschutz, two marine radars (3cm and 10cm) with automatic radar plotting aid (ARPA) capability, an FA-150 automatic identification system (AIS), an electronic chart display and information system (ECDIS) and a FE-700 echo sounder. It also includes a DS-80 Doppler log and NX – 700B Navigational Telex (Navtex) from Furuno, a Taiyo VHF direction finder and Gill Ultrasonic wind sensor.
For communication, the vessel is supplied with Furuno, Motorola and Thon-made UHF/VHF stationary and portable radio telephones. These include MF/HF. FS-1570 radio plants, two FM-8800S VHF all-in-one marine VHF radio telephones, three FM-2721 VHF radio telephones, three GM-360 mobile radios, a Thon TR 20 portable radio phone, a GP340 VHF portable radio, and a GM380 stationary radio.
Other notable communication instruments include two Sea Tel 6009 VSAT antennae, two Furuno Felcom 15 InMarSat-Cs with GMDSS compatibility, a Tron 40 S and a Tron 45 SX emergency position indicating radio beacons (EPIRBs), and two Tron SART radar transponders.
Viking Princess machinery and propulsion
Viking Princess is equipped with Wärtsilä’s gas electric propulsion system featuring the low loss voncept (LLC). Instead of four main engines, the vessel is outfitted with two large and two small dual-fuel engines. The larger ones are six-cylinder in-line 34DF engines, each rated at 2,610kW. The smaller ones are six-cylinder 20DF engines, each rated at 1,056kW. Each of them is driven by Alconza main generators (2 x 2,510kW and 2 x1,014kW).
Emergency generator sets include a Volvo Penta D12 engine of 339kW capacity and a Stamford generator of 375kVA.
Propulsion is provided by two Steerprop Sp 35 CRP azimuth propellers, each of 2,450kW. A set of two Brunvoll bow thrusters, each of 1,000kW, and an azimuth thruster of 880kW allow the vessel to manoeuvre smoothly.

Technicians from Janicki Industries in Hamilton, Wash., work in collaboration with NASA’s Langley Research Center in Hampton, Va., and NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala., to build part of the Space Launch System, NASA's next-generation launch vehicle. They are specifically working on a diaphragm for the Multipurpose Crew Vehicle Stage Adapter (MSA). Joint efforts between NASA and Janicki Industries enable engineers to verify proper functioning of this part of the SLS vehicle with the Orion spacecraft during its first mission -- Exploration Flight Test -1 (EFT-1) -- scheduled to launch in 2014. The adapter will attach the Orion spacecraft to the launching rocket, and the diaphragm is used to keep launch vehicle gases away from the spacecraft. United Launch Alliance, which makes the Delta IV in nearby Decatur, Ala., will deliver a full-size section of the rocket to the Marshall Center, where engineers will test the fit of the adapter on June 26.

With its 5 EM stabilizers (1 on each leg and 1 on the back), this CYGNUS Corp. ground unit is one of the most stable walkers on the market. The EM stabilizers compensate for the heavy armor penetrating cannon and heavy high velocity gatling recoil. GLAIVEs are also equiped with a set of missiles and a light laser gatling. They are used in various missions like search and destroy, strategic point defense or enemy base assault.
Throughout history, members of Naval Mobile Construction Battalions, "Seabees" have been revered for their ability to quickly transform terrain, pave airstrips, build bridges and construct bomb-proof compounds- and fight to the death all the while. Seabees were a tremendous asset to the Marine Corps, as they were fierce warriors and provided a tactical approach to warfare construction. Many times Seabees and Marines were the first troops into combat zones and first responders against Separatist attacks on helo pads, airfields, roads, and bridges.
MK II "Hatchet" Multipurpose Tactical Construction Hardsuits were the workhorses of the Naval Mobile Construction Battalions during The War. Although they were designed for construction, MK II's had a light grade plate armor- which was just enough to withstand small arms fire. They also featured fully rotatable arms, capable of lifting and moving tremendous burdens. Though not designed for combat, MK II's (and the Seabees who operated them) were deployed within enemy territory and forced to defend themselves, often with many casualties.
The Leonardo Permanent Multipurpose Module Leonardo being attached to the International Space Station, 1 March 2011.
This final flight of Discovery marks the eighth and final trip of Leonardo to the orbiting complex. This visit will be longer: the module will be left attached to the Station as a permanent extension. Originally built to ferry cargo to and from the Station in the Shuttle cargo bay, Leonardo’s modifications include improved debris shielding and easier access by the crew to its internal equipment.
Leonardo flew into space for the first time in 2001, also on Discovery, as the first of three Multipurpose Logistics Modules built by the Italian space agency, ASI, under an agreement with NASA.

The High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV), commonly known as the Humvee, is a four-wheel drive military automobile produced by AM General.[7] It has largely supplanted the roles originally performed by the original jeep, and newer Military light utility vehicles such as the Vietnam-era M151 1/4 ton, the M561 "Gama Goat", their M718A1 and M792 ambulance versions, the CUCV, and other light trucks. Primarily used by the United States military, it is also used by numerous other countries and organizations and even in civilian adaptations. The Humvee's widespread use in the Persian Gulf War, where it negotiated the treacherous desert sand with ease, helped inspire the civilian Hummer automotive marque.

I don't know much about trains. However even I could tell by the deep booming rumble resonating through James Street Station, that there was something different going on, for Merseyrail's Wirral Line is an electric service. Turns out it was this apparatus, which I am led to believe is an MPV, a 'multipurpose vehicle' for doing various sorts of track maintenance tasks. It's parked up at Platform 2 at Liverpool's James Street Station, which line will give it access to the Northern Line as well. You can see the entrance to the Merey Tunnel in the background.
I must say I was surprised that, loud though this was in the confined space, it was no louder; and given the underground location there was a surprising lack of fumes.

The Wasp class is a class of Landing Helicopter Dock (LHD) amphibious assault ships operated by the United States Navy. Based on the Tarawa class, with modifications to operate more advanced aircraft and landing craft, the Wasp class is capable of transporting almost the full strength of a United States Marine Corps Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU), and landing them in hostile territory via landing craft or helicopters as well as providing air support via AV-8B Harrier II attack aircraft or F-35B Lightning II stealth strike-fighters. All Wasp-class ships were built by Ingalls Shipbuilding, at Pascagoula, Mississippi, with the lead ship, USS Wasp, commissioned on 29 July 1989. Eight Wasp-class ships were built, and as of June 2018, all eight are active.

After the fall of the Greco-Roman Federation, a small group of the Federation's top VCS engineers managed to escape to the West-African Company, an ambitious military manufacturer. The engineers brought with them plans for a new lightweight VCS prototype. The WAC quickly rushed the new system into production, and soon were selling them to the various insurgent forces throughout northern Africa. Reports show that some of the larger insurgent groups may be forming a makeshift government in order to take down the URE.
The WAC-LVCS01, more commonly known as the Gremlin, was originally designed as a cheap VCS for use against infantry and light armor, similar to the URE's Hornet. However, the system exceeded expectations, and has proved more than a match for larger VCS due to its mobility and firepower. In addition to a basic rifle, most Gremlins come equipped with a multipurpose backpack, which contains two "System Buster" manual-use warheads, and a light bazooka, as well as a long-range comms antennae. Extra ammunition for the bazooka is stored on the backpack, and extra clips for the rifle are found on a cable around the waist.
This one was interesting to build, I started out building the design around a new shoulder joint that would allow the arms to swing forward, and it evolved from there. It's definitely pretty fun to play around with, especially the extra weapons. It does look kinda weird without the backpack, though.
"This super expensive drone can function as a cruise missile to strike targets miles below on the ground. Alternatively, it can be deployed to engage at short range with enemy interceptors, allowing the fast-but-less-than-agile Night Raven to continue its mission without spending valuable time and fuel in a dogfight. Finally, it can be used for extended high-flying reconnaissance, in which case it sends back pictures to a Cobra HQ and self destructs after it has used up its fuel."

Ohai. And now to the creation: I wanted to make a Wimbeish vertical tank thingy, and 'thus I made this :3
AIPZ-6 is a multipurpose, all-terrain vertical tank. It is cheap to produce, but it's still very well armored.
But because of the heavy armor, it doesn't have much firepower.
Enjoy!

The engine house contained a 26-inch pumping/winding engine dating from about 1857. Inside can be seen the cylinder bedstone with a prominent flywheel slot and pit on the east side of the bob wall. There is a well preserved boiler house for a single boiler alongside the N.W. wall.
It was this mine that inadvertantly caused the 1893 disaster at nearby West Wheal Owles when miners broke through into the abandoned flooded workings resulting in the loss of twenty lives.

The single-seater multipurpose fighter plane MiG-21 was a standard USSR plane in the 1970s and 1980s, and one of the most-built supersonic aircraft in the world. The plane was built in numerous versions between 1958 and 1984 and developed into one of the most-built fighter aircraft of the postwar period. It is estimated that a total of 11,000 planes were produced. In 1990, the East German military aircraft became the property of the Bundeswehr following German reunification, and were gradually scrapped in the subsequent years under the CSCE disarmament treaties. A few planes were secured beforehand for museums. When the MiG-21 was taken over by the Bundesluftwaffe in 1990, the DDR insignia were painted over. The original NVA markings on the plane exhibited at the Flugwerft have been uncovered.

The Sony Center is a multipurpose building in central Berlin. The complex is situated at Potsdamer Platz. An important public square and traffic intersection in the centre of Berlin; near the Brandenburg Gate and the Reichstag. The building houses offices, shops and restaurants.
Berlin has a clear historical context, however, also has a modern vision. The Sony Center is one of the highlights of this vision. The building's construction is a daring piece of technology. In particular, the roof of this building attracts much attention because of its fascinating design. Although Japanese tourist think the iconic roof resembles 'their' mount Fuji!
The complex consists of seven buildings: the European headquarters of Sony Corporation, the Forum, the headquarters of German railways, Filmhaus, Esplanade Residence, a business tower on Bellevue Road and a commercial tower at the Philharmonic.
The architectural firm Murphy / Jahn in Chicago, with lead-architect Helmut Jahn, is responsible for the design of the Sony Center.

After the fall of the Greco-Roman Federation, a small group of the Federation's top VCS engineers managed to escape to the West-African Company, an ambitious military manufacturer. The engineers brought with them plans for a new lightweight VCS prototype. The WAC quickly rushed the new system into production, and soon were selling them to the various insurgent forces throughout northern Africa. Reports show that some of the larger insurgent groups may be forming a makeshift government in order to take down the URE.
The WAC-LVCS01, more commonly known as the Gremlin, was originally designed as a cheap VCS for use against infantry and light armor, similar to the URE's Hornet. However, the system exceeded expectations, and has proved more than a match for larger VCS due to its mobility and firepower. In addition to a basic rifle, most Gremlins come equipped with a multipurpose backpack, which contains two "System Buster" manual-use warheads, and a light bazooka, as well as a long-range comms antennae. Extra ammunition for the bazooka is stored on the backpack, and extra clips for the rifle are found on a cable around the waist.
This one was interesting to build, I started out building the design around a new shoulder joint that would allow the arms to swing forward, and it evolved from there. It's definitely pretty fun to play around with, especially the extra weapons. It does look kinda weird without the backpack, though.

My multipurpose magnetic brooches, are just what you need to adorn your outfits. They are so nice, colourful, light: you can wear them wherever you like! On the neckline of a dress or a blouse, or on the lapel of a jacket for a glamorous effect! Their magnets are so powerful as to make them wearable on most fabrics. Their neodymium magnet, the most widespread type of rare-earth magnet, is a permanent magnet and the strongest type on the market. Its counterpart, covered with protective film, was designed to protect the skin from their standard nickel coverage and make them safe and attractive at the same time. Made from PET bottles - sometimes combined with egg boxes or other plastic stuff - "TAC TAC" are appropriately cut, coloured, flame-worked and assembled with semi-precious stones, Bohemian crystals, metallic beads, silver components or custom jewellery and so on, in order to create aesthetically stylish pieces...A practical way to offer both elegant, economically and environmentally sustainable fashion.

Viking Princess is a liquefied natural gas (LNG)-driven multipurpose offshore vessel owned by Eidesvik Supply and operated by Eidesvik. She was delivered in September 2012 and is the sister ship to Viking Prince, which started sailing in March 2012.
Norwegian shipbuilder Kleven Maritime won a $77.28m (NOK440m) contract by Eidesvik back in July 2010 to build the two sister ships. The keel of the second vessel, Viking Princess, was laid in October 2011 in Kleven Maritime’s yard at Ulsteinvik, Ulstein, Norway. The vessel’s hull was launched in April 2012.
Viking Princess was officially christened by Mette-Marit, the Crown Princess of Norway, on 14 September 2012 in Bergen, Hordaland, Norway.
The vessel is of VS 489 Gas PSV design developed by Wärtsilä Ship Design and is built to DNV class 1A1 ICE-C Supply Vessel, Standby Vessel(S), Oil Rec, Gas Fuelled, and other notations.
Prominent features of the vessel include fuel economy, low emissions, large cargo capacity, oil recovery equipment and capacity for standby. Winterisation and de-icing solutions make her suitable for operations in ice and cold environments.
The vessel’s dual fuel engines allow her to operate on gas as well as heavy fuel oil (HFO) and marine diesel oil (MDO). It is only during LNG bunkering that the vessel uses diesel. The use of LNG will reduce NOx and CO2 emissions by 85% and 25% respectively.
Viking Princess has a gross tonnage of 5,014t and a dead weight of 5,800t. Her overall length, moulded breadth and summer draught are 89.6m, 21m and 7.6m respectively. Length between perpendiculars is 79.2m, while depth to main deck is 9.6m. Cargo deck area of the vessel is 1,050m2 and the height of the cargo rail is 4m.
Accommodation and facilities onboard the Viking Princess
The PSV can provide permanent accommodation for a total of 28 persons. It has four cabin states, 12 one-man cabins and six two-man cabins. All of them are provided with toilet and shower facilities.
Facilities on-board include a no-smokers room, smokers room, laundry and gymnasium. The vessel also has an office and a hospital.
Tank storage capacity and discharge rates
Storage capacities of tanks onboard the Viking Princess are 823m3 of fuel oil, 1,036m3 of fresh water, 1,781m3 of drill water/ballast, 1,392m3 of liquid mud, 210m3 of methanol, 300m3 of dry bulk, 1,667m3 of brine and 243m3 of base oil. The LNG tank can store 233m3.
The discharge rate of fuel oil, fresh water, drill water/ballast and base oil is 150m3/hr per pump. Liquid mud and base oil can be discharged at the rate of 100m3/hr per pump, while methanol and special products can be discharged at the rate of 75m3/hr per pump.
Tank washing is done with hot and cold water. Tanks containing mud, brine and base oil are washed with chemical blended water. All types of liquid cargo on-board the vessel are handled by separate pumps and piping system.
Viking Princess deck equipment
Viking Princess is fitted with two Adria tugger winches and two Adria mooring winches. An Adria anchor / mooring winch is installed forward. There are also two harbour mobile cranes (HMCs), each of which can lift 5t at a 15m outreach.
Viking Princess manoeuvring, navigation and communication systems
The PSV is provided with an integrated manoeuvring, dynamic positioning (DP) and vessel management system. Kongsberg has supplied its K-POS DP-22 DP system and K-Master manoeuvring system for the vessel. Wärtsilä Automation supplied the vessel management system comprising cargo handling and alarm.
The PSV can provide permanent accommodation for a total of 28 persons.
Navigation solution includes three gyrocompasses and an autopilot from Anschutz, two marine radars (3cm and 10cm) with automatic radar plotting aid (ARPA) capability, an FA-150 automatic identification system (AIS), an electronic chart display and information system (ECDIS) and a FE-700 echo sounder. It also includes a DS-80 Doppler log and NX – 700B Navigational Telex (Navtex) from Furuno, a Taiyo VHF direction finder and Gill Ultrasonic wind sensor.
For communication, the vessel is supplied with Furuno, Motorola and Thon-made UHF/VHF stationary and portable radio telephones. These include MF/HF. FS-1570 radio plants, two FM-8800S VHF all-in-one marine VHF radio telephones, three FM-2721 VHF radio telephones, three GM-360 mobile radios, a Thon TR 20 portable radio phone, a GP340 VHF portable radio, and a GM380 stationary radio.
Other notable communication instruments include two Sea Tel 6009 VSAT antennae, two Furuno Felcom 15 InMarSat-Cs with GMDSS compatibility, a Tron 40 S and a Tron 45 SX emergency position indicating radio beacons (EPIRBs), and two Tron SART radar transponders.
Viking Princess machinery and propulsion
Viking Princess is equipped with Wärtsilä’s gas electric propulsion system featuring the low loss voncept (LLC). Instead of four main engines, the vessel is outfitted with two large and two small dual-fuel engines. The larger ones are six-cylinder in-line 34DF engines, each rated at 2,610kW. The smaller ones are six-cylinder 20DF engines, each rated at 1,056kW. Each of them is driven by Alconza main generators (2 x 2,510kW and 2 x1,014kW).
Emergency generator sets include a Volvo Penta D12 engine of 339kW capacity and a Stamford generator of 375kVA.
Propulsion is provided by two Steerprop Sp 35 CRP azimuth propellers, each of 2,450kW. A set of two Brunvoll bow thrusters, each of 1,000kW, and an azimuth thruster of 880kW allow the vessel to manoeuvre smoothly.
