Sculpture with a D. Sculpture with a "D" is an abstract sculpture by Sam Gilliam, designed in 1980 and installed in 1983. It is located at Davis (MBTA station), Somerville, Massachusetts. Painted aluminum shapes connect to one another and to a supporting grid, forming a composite 44 feet long that hangs above the platform.  These were described by a critic as "a burst of painted abstract shapes", and include elements evoking letters which spell out the name of the station. 

The work was commissioned as one of the first twenty works of the Arts on the Line program.

John Colvin (engineer). Lieutenant-Colonel John Colvin   (20 August 1794 – 27 April 1871) was a British engineer who served the East India Company in India, and who is mainly remembered for his role in constructing canals in northern India.

Colvin was born in Glasgow, Scotland, the son of Thomas Colvin, a local merchant. He was one of the first cadets to pass through the East India Company's Military Seminary at Addiscombe, passing his final examination in December 1809; after which he was appointed to the Bengal Engineers in 1810. Over the following 27 years he was principally involved in the construction of canals in northern India.  He established a reputation as a first class engineer and was appointed superintendent of canals in the Delhi area, and later referred to as the "Father of irrigation in northern India". Colvin became interested in the fossils found in the Siwalik Hills and gave several large donations to the Asiatic Society of Bengal's museum, as well as specimens to museums in Britain. Colvin returned to England in 1838 and married Josephine Puget Baker, the sister of his colleague and friend William Erskine Baker at Ludlow. He was  appointed a Companion of the Order of the Bath (CB) in the 1838 Coronation Honours.

Colvin retired in 1839 and became involved in the work of the Ludlow Natural History Society and their museum, as well as serving on local committees, as a magistrate, and as a patron of local good causes such as education.

Spontelectrics. In solid state physics, spontelectrics is the study and phenomenon of thin films of various materials producing strong electric fields.

Properties 
When laid down as thin films tens to hundreds of molecular layers thick, a range of materials spontaneously generate large electric fields. The electric fields can be greater than 108 V/m.

Spontelectric behaviour is intrinsic to the dipolar nature of the constituent molecules.

The detection (in ~2009) of spontaneous electric fields in numerous solid films prepared by vapour deposition raises fundamental questions about the nature of disordered materials.

SAKO (programming language). SAKO (PL: System Automatycznego KOdowania - EN: An Automatic Coding System) is a Polish language-based programming language written in years 1959-1960 by a team from ZAM division of Polish Academy of Sciences. Originally developed for the computers XYZ and ZAM-2, 
in later years also for ZAM-21, ZAM-41 and Mińsk-22.

General features of the SAKO language:

 commands similar to sentences used in natural language
 shortened the time of learning the principles of programming
 easy to use, reduced coding time
 transparent program code, low probability of making a mistake

It had a static address allocation. It was possible to insert code in SAS macro assembler. The compilation proceeded in two stages:

 From SAKO to simplified SAS macro assembler (SAS-W).
 From SAS-W to machine language.

The most characteristic feature of SAKO are Polish commands, e.g. CZYTAJ, SKOCZ DO. Designed primarily for programming numerical calculations.

Wheelskate. A wheelskate, wheel skate, or axle dolly is a device used to lift the axle of a damaged or blocked rail wheel set and prevent it sliding over the rail. With the axle lifted and wheels off the rails, the train can be moved for repairs.  

To be able to use a wheelskate, access to one side of the vehicle is required. This is especially important for the design of tunnel cross-sections.

Wheelskates are used by a variety of railroads, both passenger and freight.  They enable the continued operation of rail lines that would otherwise be brought to a halt by a breakdown.

Borderel-Cail. The Borderel-Cail was a French automobile manufactured in Denain in the 1910s by Société J. F. Cail & Cie., who were a builder of railway locomotives since the 1840s.

In 1905 they built a six-wheeled limousine, powered by a 4-cylinder engine. Power was supplied to the center axle, while both the front and rear wheels steered. An updated version of the car with a more powerful engine was shown at the 1906 Paris Salon. The final Borderel-Cail was a conventional four-wheeled car with a 30 horsepower 4-cylinder engine, launched in 1907.

Bosley (automobile). The Bosley was an American prototype automobile built in Mentor, Ohio, U.S. in 1953 by American automotive engineer and designer Richard Bosley. Bosley wanted to build a car that would surpass any car available on the market at the time. The car featured a steel tube frame and a 5.4L Chrysler Hemi V-8 mated to a Borg-Warner 5-speed transmission. The car featured a very graceful fibreglass body, which was amazing considering Bosley was a horticulturist who had never studied design or engineering.

The car was featured in magazines such as "Motor World", "The Motor in England", Road and Track", "Motor Life" and "Hot Rod". Bosley clocked up approximately 100,000 miles on the car before trading it in the mid-1960s for a Chevrolet Corvette, which was to form the basis of a line of street cars called the Bosley Interstate.

The car still survives and appears occasionally at car shows.

Bulant (automobile). The Bulanti was an Australian automobile built in 1971 by Brian Rawlings at Annangrove, New South Wales, Australia.
The Bulanti was based on the Mini Cooper, and was a mid-engined fibreglass coupé. It was built on a fabricated steel frame, on which the Mini sub-frame was laid, and weighed 1177 lb (535 kg).

The Bulant factory was located next to the Amaroo Park motor racing circuit, which was used as the test track for the prototype Bulanti, which had an aluminium body.

Rawlings built and sold two additional fibreglass bodied cars, but when prospective customers wanted their cars built to their exact specifications, Rawlings decided that he couldn't spare the time on future construction, and ended the project. The aluminium prototype survives today.

Curtiss Autoplane. The Curtiss Autoplane, invented by Glenn Curtiss in 1917, is widely considered the first attempt to build a roadable aircraft. Although the vehicle was capable of lifting off the ground, it never achieved full flight.

Development and design

The Autoplane was a triplane, using the wings from a Curtiss Model L trainer, with a small foreplane mounted on the aircraft's nose. The Autoplane's aluminum body resembled a Model T and had three seats in an enclosed cabin, with the pilot/chauffeur sitting in the front seat and the two passengers side-by side to the rear. It used a four-blade pusher propeller, and a twin-boom tail. A  Curtiss OXX engine drove the propeller via shaft and belts. The aircraft had a four-wheel undercarriage, with the front two wheels being steerable. The wings and tail could be detached for use as an automobile.

It was shown at the Pan-American Aeronautic Exposition at New York City in February 1917. It made a few short hops before the entry of the United States into World War I in April 1917 ended development of the Autoplane.

Hollandsche Vliegtuigenfabriek Avia. The Hollandsche Vliegtuigenfabriek Avia was a two-seat biplane, designed and displayed in the Netherlands in 1918. It was advertised as a fighter or as a post and passenger aircraft.  Its first flight has not been confirmed.

Design and development
The Avia's only known appearance was at an exhibition at Rotterdam after the Armistice in 1918, where it was described both as a fighter, carrying fixed, forward firing machine guns and a moveable gun in the rear cockpit, and as a post- and passenger carrier. It was a two bay biplane with parallel interplane struts. The upper wing was supported over the fuselage by a cabane structure. It had a fixed, single axle conventional undercarriage, with struts from each wheel to the central fuselage underside and was powered by a 134 kW (180 hp) Argus six cylinder upright inline water-cooled engine, driving a two blade propeller.

There were reports that the Avia was to be taken to Soesterberg for flight testing but nothing more was heard about it.

Nuclear energy over coal energy
In March 2013, commenting on the uncertainty regarding the completion of Taiwan's 4th nuclear power plant, the Lungmen Nuclear Power Plant, Shen said that by abolishing nuclear power plant, means Taiwan has to replace it with more coal-fired power plants, which means it will create more carbon emission to the environment and it would make Taiwan not being able to achieve its carbon reduction goal in 2020. While renewable energy is good to replace carbon-based power generation, renewable energy is still expensive and is not economical as coal, especially when it comes to electricity generation. He added that having nuclear power plant is safer compared to more coal-fired power plants because nuclear energy can be controlled, while severe climate change due to excessive carbon emission cannot be controlled at all.

LNG supply to Kinmen from mainland China
In January 2013, Shen witnessed the signing of agreement between China National Offshore Oil Corporation and Shinfox to supply Kinmen with liquefied natural gas (LNG) from mainland China. The delivery of LNG was expected to be started in early 2015 to industrial companies. At a later stage, the supply would be increased up to 100,000 tonnes per year to include power plants and households. Shen said that the cooperation is helpful to aid Taiwan in realizing Kinmen to be a tourism-focused low-carbon county.
