Dive Theory Guide
DIVE THEORY STUDY GUIDE by Rod Abbotson CD69259 © 2010 Dive Aqaba Guidelines for studying: Study each area in order as the theory from one subject is used to build upon the theory in the next subject. When you have completed a subject, take tests and exams in that subject to make sure you understand everything before moving on. If you try to jump around or don’t completely understand something; this can lead to gaps in your knowledge. You need to apply the knowledge in earlier sections to understand the concepts in later sections... If you study this way you will retain all of the information and you will have no problems with any PADI dive theory exams you may take in the future. Before completing the section on decompression theory and the RDP make sure you are thoroughly familiar with the RDP, both Wheel and table versions. Use the appropriate instructions for use guides which come with the product. Contents Section One PHYSICS ………………………………………………page 2 Section Two PHYSIOLOGY………………………………………….page 11 Section Three DECOMPRESSION THEORY & THE RDP….……..page 21 Section Four EQUIPMENT……………………………………………page 27 Section Five SKILLS & ENVIRONMENT…………………………...page 36 PHYSICS SECTION ONE Light: The speed of light changes as it passes through different things such as air, glass and water. This affects the way we see things underwater with a diving mask. As the light passes through the glass of the mask and the air space, the difference in speed causes the light rays to bend; this is called refraction. To the diver wearing a normal diving mask objects appear to be larger and closer than they actually are. -
Final EIS Responses to Comments 1-40
Table 1-2. Responses to Comments Comment Response Comment/Response Number Number 1.1 The lakes in question are in our main camp area. We have operated in this area for thirty years and probably know more about the fish in these lakes than anyone associated with this ridiculous plan. These lakes have provided unequalled fishing to our guests and all others that have fished them. 1.1 This project is designed to preserve this stronghold for native westslope cutthroat trout. This project proposes to re-establish WCT populations in all treated lakes, which will maintain angling opportunities. 1.2 We feel that his plan goes against all that is held sacred in a wilderness area. … We believe the "Wilderness Act" should be respected and these areas should not be tampered with. 1.2 Native westslope cutthroat trout are considered a wilderness value. This project is designed to maintain and conserve that value. 1.3 Why should anyone be allowed to tamper with these healthy fish in order to obtain a genetically pure strain of fish? 1.3 It is the responsibility of MFWP to ensure that this species is conserved and maintained so the public of Montana can continue to use and enjoy it. The species has been at risk of hybridization for some time. MFWP has taken measures to reduce and eliminate the threats (see Section 1.2 of the DEIS). The species has been proposed for ESA listing (see Section 1.4.1 and Appendix B of the DEIS). MFWP is mandated to keep this from happening so the public does not lose the opportunity to use and enjoy WCT (see page 1-8 of the DEIS). -
Paper: Role of Hydrostatic Testing in Pipeline Integrity Assessment
ROLE OF HYDROSTATIC TESTING IN PIPELINE INTEGRITY ASSESSMENT by John F. Kiefner presented at Northeast Pipeline Integrity Workshop Albany, New York June 12, 2001 KIEFNER AND ASSOCIATES, INC. 893 High Street, Suite L P.O. Box 268 Worthington, Ohio 43085 www.kiefner.com 1 ROLE OF HYDROSTATIC TESTING IN PIPELINE INTEGRITY ASSESSMENT by John F. Kiefner INTRODUCTION Hydrostatic testing is universally known and accepted as a means of demonstrating the fitness of a pressurized component for service(1, 2). After a test, a pipeline or pressure vessel can be expected to safely contain its intended operating pressure. The confidence level that a pipeline or pressure vessel is fit for safe service increases as the ratio of test pressure to operating pressure increases. This highly beneficial aspect of hydrostatic testing applies not only to a new component to be placed in service for the first time. A similar benefit accrues to an in-service component if that component is taken out of service after a period of time and subjected to a hydrostatic test. A “revalidation” test of the latter type assures either that no significant time- dependent deterioration of the component has taken place or that any segment that has been significantly degraded will be revealed and eliminated. There are limitations to the use of hydrostatic testing to revalidate integrity. Some are economic, some are technical, and some are both economic and technical in nature. First, taking a segment of a pipeline out of service means loss of service for the period of the test. Some operators may have this option; others may not. -

Diving Incidents Report Foreward Introduction
APPENDIX A - DIVING INCIDENTS REPORT FOREWARD The 1992 Diving Incidents Report, produced by The British Sub-Aqua Club (BSAC) in the interest of promoting diving safety. As the Goveming Body of the sport of sub-aqua diving within the United Kingdom, the BSAC publishes this information and makes it freely available, subject to the bounds of medical confidentiality, for the benefit of all those concerned with the organisation and conduct of sport diving activities, and in particular, all divers. The BSAC Incidents Reporting Scheme has been established for some 27 years, longer than some diver training organisations. It uses information gathered from a large variety of sources, including the individuals and clubs involved, H.M. Coastguard, recompression chamber operators, the Institute of Naval Medicine and a press cuttings service. All reports received are analysed and summarised in this report with the intention of highlighting any lessons that can be learnt. The BSAC uses this information to identify any trends in diving incidents in order togive its best advice and, if necessary, introduce new training prior to these trends becoming commonplace occurrences. This year (1992) there have been 123 reports received, and it is estimated that over 1.5 million 'man-dives' have been carried out. This is an apparent 30% reduction in dives carried out when compared to 1991 ,possibly due to both the depressed state of the economy and due to the inclement weather on the South Coast for most of the year. The vast majority of these dives were carried out in complete safety and attracted no publicity. -

Nondestructive Examination – Overview
Volume 9 Number 1 Nondestructive Examination – Overview December 2009 Introduction: Nondestructive examination (NDE) is a general term that includes all testing, inspection and examination activities used to find, size or determine something about an object or flaws therein, and allow the investigator to determine whether the object and/or flaws are acceptable. Various Flowserve pumps, forms of nondestructive examination are used in the pump industry. This is a subject that has mechanical seals, not previously been covered in a Materials Newsletter article. Given the widespread use of NDE in the manufacture of our products, it was thought that an overview of some of the more commonly quarter-turn valves, used techniques and their primary applications would be beneficial to many of our associates. actuators and controls Discussion: Visual Examination are the benchmarks Visual examination is a minimum requirement for most wrought and cast materials used in pumps. ASTM specifications for ferrous castings require compliance with one of two visual of performance examination standards. A802 “Standard Practice for Visual Examination of Steel Castings – Surface Acceptance Standards” is a newer standard, providing several different in the global acceptance criteria for a wide range of surface defects that can be encountered in castings. industrial equipment It is the responsibility of the purchaser to define the level of quality deemed necessary for the application. In the past, MSS-SP-55 was routinely used for both steels and cast irons to define marketplace. Key to minimum acceptable surface quality. This standard provided only a single level of minimum acceptable quality for various casting defects. Both standards rely on visual comparison with this reputation is the photos showing surface flaws or defects of various severity levels.
