shipwreck

Read a random definition: peak demand

A quick definition of shipwreck:

A shipwreck is when a ship is damaged or destroyed and can no longer do its job. This can happen if the ship sinks or crashes into something, or if it gets stuck and fills with water. Sometimes, the ship can be saved, but other times it is too damaged and has to be abandoned.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A shipwreck is the wreckage of a ship or the injury/destruction of a vessel due to circumstances beyond the owner's control, making it unable to carry out its mission.

For example, when a ship sinks or is dashed to pieces, it is considered a shipwreck. Another example is when a ship is stranded, meaning it grounds and fills with water. This may or may not lead to shipwreck, depending on the circumstances. If it does, it may justify an abandonment.

These examples illustrate how shipwreck can occur due to various reasons, such as bad weather, navigational errors, or equipment failure. It can result in loss of life, property damage, and environmental pollution.

This is obviously not true for UVA. Past years show they don't send any non A results until December
