Abstract: Disclosed herein are a group anchor system, subsea installation tool and method of install such group anchor systems. The group anchor system includes a template through which a plurality of vertical piles, such as helical piles, are passed, drilled into the seabed at one end and secured to the template at the other to provide a mooring anchor for an offshore asset. The installation tool is a modular tool designed to mate with the group anchor system. Each module including drive mechanism for engaging and driving a pile. The piles may be driven simultaneously, individually, or in groups as required for proper placement and leveling. Methods of using the installation tool are also disclosed.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a bladder collection system. Particularly, a bladder collection system for females is disclosed. The system is designed to be flexible and useful in upright or mobile situations. The bladder relief system includes a collection interface sized and configured for seated or standing application, a sleeve, defining a collection opening, and sidewalls defining a collection cavity, an interface tubing, extending from one end of the sleeve to another, between a collection end of the interface tubing, and an exit port for connection to an exit hose; and an adsorbing material contained within the collection cavity.

Abstract: Earplugs that have enhanced performance in protecting the user from high noise levels without impeding auditory awareness are described. The earplugs comprise a housing and a non-linear acoustic filter, wherein the non-linear acoustic filter can comprise a bulb. The earplugs are designed to be compatible with other types of headwear, e.g., headphones and helmets.

Abstract: Disclosed are bearing assemblies including a compliant layer within a mounting socket for reducing wear of the bearing.
