  • Database and Knowledge About Essential Manufacturers of Marine Self-Ignition Engines
    Journal of Marine Science and Engineering Article Database and Knowledge about Essential Manufacturers of Marine Self-Ignition Engines Jan Monieta 1,* and Adrian Sendecki 2 1 Maritime University of Szczecin, Wały Chrobrego 1–2, 70-500 Szczecin, Poland 2 MPSV Prince Jameson 1, Nortrans Offshore PTE LTD, Nigeria; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +(4891)-48-09-302 Received: 26 February 2020; Accepted: 27 March 2020; Published: 1 April 2020 Abstract: During scientificstudies on reciprocating self-ignition marine engines, varying data are often needed. Such data are often in various collections and obtaining some of these is very difficult. Therefore, as it was elaborated in the electronic database about the important marine reciprocating combustion engine producers for the needs of operating scientific investigations aiming at gathering the essential information and technical data in one set. This article also presents a reference to existing databases. Important and globally known companies, as well as their constant and variable data, were described. These data were obtained from various printed and virtual sources of information. These data were selected and compiled in the environment of the Microsoft Access computer program. The collected information was divided between main propulsion and auxiliary engines, containing data about manufacturers, types, and technical parameters of slow, medium, or high-speed combustion engines. This database is constantly updated and rebuilt according to the constructions and changes on the engine production market as the result of economic and ecological functions. It is a relative type database, which contains information about technical data of combustion engines. Marine combustion engines are usually operated for dozens of years after they have been produced, whereas producers merge, change their names, or stop existing.

    Copyright 2016. No quotation or citation without attribution. UCSD - GPS CASE 16 - 12 Analysis of the Volkswagen Scandal Possible Solutions for Recovery By: Angie Zhou School of Global Policy and Strategy, UC at San Diego Prepared for Professor Peter Gourevitch Course on Corporate Social Responsibility Winter 2016 Copyright 2016. No quotation or citation without attribution. Analysis of the Volkswagen Scandal Possible Solutions for Recovery The Volkswagen scandal is a notorious example of how corporations can shape the ethical and political issues of the environment. The Volkswagen Group that is headquartered in Wolfsburg, Germany owns Bently, Bugatti, Lamborhini, Audi, Porsche, SEAT, and Škoda. Volkswagen’s presence as a global company made this a significant event not because of the legal and financial repercussions that occurred from different countries, but because of the lasting damage on society and the environment that cannot be fully perceived. Volkswagen previously had a goal of becoming the world’s largest automaker by 2018, but the scandal caused the company to lose one third of the company’s market cap.1 In an attempt to compensate for the emissions violations, Volkswagen ordered a voluntary recall, issued a public apology, and the CEO along with other directors of the firm resigned. The company is also facing lawsuits and criminal charges and the future of the company looks grim. In order to analyze how such a global company could commit fraud for so long on such a big scale, it is beneficial to view this case as a problem of regulatory capture involving information asymmetry, issues with oversight, and private governance.
