Ngamta Thamwattana. Ngamta ""Natalie"" Thamwattana is a Thai mathematician who works in Australia as a Professor of Applied Mathematics at the University of Newcastle (Australia). In 2014 she won the J. H. Michell Medal of ANZIAM for her "pioneering contributions in the areas of granular materials and nanotechnology".

Thamwattana came from Chumphon Province in Thailand, where her mother made dresses and her father worked in the police.
After her first year of university, her high test scores in science and mathematics earned her a government scholarship with full tuition and, later, support for doctoral studies abroad.
She earned a bachelor's degree in mathematics from Mahidol University in Thailand in 2000, choosing mathematics because as a mathematician she wouldn't "have to play with the chemical stuff and we didn't have to kill rat or any insects". She completed her Ph.D. at Wollongong in 2004 under the supervision of James Murray Hill.

After completing her studies, she returned the money from her Thai scholarship in order to stay in Australia with her new husband, a lecturer at Wollongong. She joined the Wollongong faculty herself, and founded the Nanomechanics Group there. In 2018 she moved to University of Newcastle (Australia) to take up a position as professor of Applied Mathematics.

Rule-based machine learning. Rule-based machine learning (RBML) is a term in computer science intended to encompass any machine learning method that identifies, learns, or evolves 'rules' to store, manipulate or apply. The defining characteristic of a rule-based machine learner is the identification and utilization of a set of relational rules that collectively represent the knowledge captured by the system.

Rule-based machine learning approaches include learning classifier systems, association rule learning, artificial immune systems, and any other method that relies on a set of rules, each covering contextual knowledge.

While rule-based machine learning is conceptually a type of rule-based system, it is distinct from traditional rule-based systems, which are often hand-crafted, and other rule-based decision makers. This is because rule-based machine learning applies some form of learning algorithm to automatically identify useful rules, rather than a human needing to apply prior domain knowledge to manually construct rules and curate a rule set.

Rules 
Rules typically take the form of an '{IF:THEN} expression', (e.g. {IF 'condition' THEN 'result'}, or as a more specific example, {IF 'red' AND 'octagon' THEN 'stop-sign}). An individual rule is not in itself a model, since the rule is only applicable when its condition is satisfied. Therefore rule-based machine learning methods typically comprise a set of rules, or knowledge base, that collectively make up the prediction model.

Renault AHx. The Renault AHx was a range of light/medium trucks with carrying capacities from 2 to 5 tonnes manufactured by Renault between 1941 and 1947. Various versions were used in World War II by the German forces.

History
Prototypes of the first AHx truck, the AHS2, were unveiled by 1939. It was aimed at replacing the similar AGC truck (which had a maximum payload of 1.5 tonnes). The truck was designed to be used by the French military on the 2.5-tonne carrying capacity group, but it was rejected. The Wehrmacht in turn ordered the production of the model, reclassifying it as a 2-tonne payload model and naming it Lastkraftwagen 2 to. The AHN (4-tonne payload) was the successor of the AGR and was produced for the Wehrmacht with the designation Lastkraftwagen 3.5 to. The heaviest AHx model, the AHR, was produced with a 5-tonne payload and, as the two other versions, was used by the Germans. The Wehrmacht was supplied with about 23,000 AHS, 4,000 AHN, and between 1,000 and 2,000 AHR.

After the war, evolutions of the AHS2 and AHN (AHS3/AHS4 and AHN2/AHN3) with 2 and 3.5 tonnes of payload respectively, were produced mainly for the civilian market. In 1947, these trucks were replaced by the Renault Galion. The AHx cabin was also the basis for a 7-tonne payload truck, the Renault 208 E1.

Technical details
The AHS has a 2.38-litre inline-four petrol engine (delivering )  while the AHN and AHR use a 4.05-litre inline-six petrol unit, the latter with a power output of . The three models had a 4-speed manual gearbox. Both the Renault AHS and the AHN have gasifier-equipped versions using engines similar to the petrol versions. The AHS version (AHSH) has a power output of  at 2,800 rpm while the AHN version (AHNH) has a power output of  at 2,800 rpm.

The AHx range has a cab forward layout, a design introduced by Renault in 1934 and gradually extended to all its truck lineup. The AHN has a height of 2.6 metres, a length of 6.4 metres and a width of 2.4 metres.

Adinotec. Adinotec AG is a German provider of road construction technology based in Munich, Bavaria, Germany. The company was founded on 19 December 2004 in Griesheim, Germany, and initially named Neosino. Brokered by VEM Aktienbank, now DERO Bank, it was listed in the Entry Standard segment of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange on 4 January 2006. Founder Edmund Krix served as CEO until 21 October 2015, when he was replaced by Curt Alexander Papenberg.

Adinotec's flagship brand is Perenium (from the Latin word 'perennitas' - that which lasts a long time). Used for sub-grade improvement and sub-base stabilisation in road construction and road refurbishment, Perenium acts in conjunction with hydraulic binders. Based on specific formulations using, amongst other agents, latex and a number of derivatives, road construction with Perenium can net significant cost savings.

History
1,35 million shares were issued in 2006, initially traded at €55,55 . During the first half of 2005, revenues of €347.000  were generated, with a posted loss of €193.000 . In the first two quarters of 2006 the loss rose to €800.000  against revenues of €900.000 . On 18 April 2008 the Annual General Meeting decided to change the company name to Adinotec.

The original purpose of the company was to manufacture nanoparticles of between three and ten nanometers for use in food supplements and in cosmetics. Grinding down various minerals to nanoparticle size, using a novel mechanical process, was supposed to facilitate their absorption by the human body and increase efficiency. Scientific corroboration of the claimed beneficial effect of nanoparticles proved elusive. For that reason, the company abandoned its initial research into nanotechnology and focused on the manufacture of polymer additives used in road construction. The leading product, initially branded nanoSTAB, was manufactured by a subsidiary named Poligate.

On 28 August 2009 the management board decided, with the consent of the supervisory board, an increase of share capital of 600.000 EUR, which fell well within the limits of the already authorized capital. First, a cash capital increase with subscription rights was carried out up to EUR 200,000 by issuing up to 200,000 new shares. A statutory subscription right was granted to entitled shareholders in the way that new shares could be offered through VEM Bank AG at a ratio of 2:1 for a subscription price of EUR 10.00 per share.

Present
On 4 November 2015, the company filed for insolvency due to illiquidity and on 4 February 2016 insolvency proceedings were initiated and the company placed under its own administration. On 25 May 2016 the creditors agreed an insolvency plan, requested by the Court, an on 23 September 2016 insolvency proceedings were officially terminated. Since then the company is debt-free and regained full legal capacity.

Thoth (video game). Thoth (stylised as THOTH) is an abstract shoot 'em up video game created by Jeppe Carlsen, former lead gameplay designer of Playdead games Limbo and Inside. It is published by Double Fine Productions.

Development 
As a solo developer, Carlsen had previously worked on independent platformer 140. Carlsen had thought about designing a game inspired by Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved and Robotron: 2084 before he started working on Limbo.

Music for the game was composed by experimental composers SØS Gunver Ryberg and Cristian Vogel.

Gameplay 
Progress through the levels of the game is made by eliminating all enemies. Doing so transforms them into ghostly voids that relentlessly chase the player. The game can be played solo or with two players cooperatively; when playing with a second player, the first player to die will become a ghost void that haunts the player. The main sequence of levels are divided into sets of four, each introducing new enemy types and game mechanics. If the main 64 levels are completed, the player gains access to procedurally generated levels.

Chemical Institute of Sarrià. Chemical Institute of Sarrià (, , IQS) is an educational institution that manages two schools of the Ramon Llull University: IQS School of Engineering and IQS School of Management. Both schools offer masters and doctorate programs.

History
Eduard Vitòria i Miralles founded Chemical Laboratory of the Ebre at Roquetes, Tarragona, in August 1905. In 1916 he moved it next to St. Ignatius College in Sarrià, where it acquired the name Chemical Institute of Sarrià. In 1965 the Ministry of Education recognized it as a State Higher Technical Education Center. In 1984 it ceased to be a legally dependent centre of the Society of Jesus and became a foundation governed by a board of trustees. On 1 March 1990 it joined with other institutions in becoming Ramon Llull University, the first private university in Catalonia as approved by the Parliament of Catalonia on 10 May 1991, then called the IQS School of Engineering and IQS School of Management (formerly School of Economics ADE).

In 2005, IQS received the Gold Medal of the city of Barcelona and the Creu de Sant Jordi distinction of the Government of Catalonia, in recognition of their teaching and research. In 2010 construction began on the new IQS School of Management building, which was officially opened by the then Prince of Asturias and Girona on 12 December 2012. In 2013, IQS School of Engineering began offering a degree in biotechnology.

Dido (train). In British railway parlance Dido trains were typically provided to transport workers to a remote place of railway employment on a Day in, day out basis.

The most common provision of this nature was to engine sheds away from centres of population where substantial numbers of staff would need to travel to or from work at times when other forms of public transport were not available. An example of this was the "Annesley Dido" which served the Great Central Railway-built Annesley engine shed north of Nottingham from at least 1929 to 8 September 1962.

A variant on this theme occurred to and from Langwith Junction engine shed in Derbyshire. This service was provided after Tuxford engine shed closed in 1959, when many Tuxford staff were transferred to work at Langwith Junction.

Workmen's trains
Dido trains were a variant within the broad class of workmen's trains which were provided by railways from their early days until well after the Second World War. Such trains ran to meet the needs of people working at establishments with significant numbers signing on and off at given times, such as collieries, factories, quarries, docks and railway workshops. Such trains were often made up of substandard coaching stock hauled by ancient locomotives, with occasional exceptions when a service's customary locomotive was indisposed. By the nature of their destinations such trains often required special platforms or other stopping places, which usually did not appear on public timetables and did not cater for the general public. Like the rolling stock, these stations were typically substandard, amounting in some cases to an agreed stopping point where users clambered to and from the trackside.

Where public stations existed near places of employment some workmen's trains called, usually not shown on the station's public timetable. Occasionally workmen's carriages were attached to regular service trains.

Whatever the variety of workmen's service used, passengers bought "workmen's tickets" at significantly reduced fares.

Examples
Many workmen's services existed over the years. Examples were provided by:

the Festiniog and Blaenau Railway to  for the quarries at Blaenau Ffestiniog
the Great Western Railway to  for the quarries at Blaenau Ffestiniog
the Lowca Light Railway to  for the colliery, washery and coking plant at Lowca
the London and North Western Railway to  for the same places
the London and North Western Railway along the Willis Branch to Huyton Quarry
the London, Midland and Scottish Railway to ROF Chorley
contractors to  whilst Immingham Docks were under construction
the Padarn Railway to the Dinorwic Slate Quarries
the Penrhyn Quarry Railway to the Penrhyn Quarry

Aero bike. Aero bike also known as "Aerodynamic bike" is a  type of road bike that uses aerodynamics principles in its operation. The bike's geometrical makeup allows the hands and body position of the rider to change given the terrain, rider's preference, and  race situation. The term is also used for aerodynamic motorcycles.

History
The  first  construction of aero bike started out as a styling project that featured an extended aerodynamic front with spoilers and advance guard bodywork in early 1985. In the same year, the first aero bike named  "Aero-D-Zero" was constructed around a steel trellis frame and bevel drive Ducati motor of Mike Brosnan. The bike was first used in  March 1987 BEARS speed trial. It later won the 1988 and 1990 speed trials with speeds of 242.72 km/h and 247.80 km/h respectively.

Meanwhile, increased use of aero bikes was seen 1989 when  US road riders started showing great concern with aerodynamics in bicycle riding games. That was when Greg LeMond won the Tour de France over Laurent Fignon by 58 seconds in the final stage time trial. Shortly after the event, bike manufacturers started producing aero wheels,  aero helmets, and  aero  clothing materials  meant for road bike-racing. Since that time till date,  most multi-sport bike companies  have continued to manufacture aero bikes. Today, almost every bike vendor offers aero bikes of various brands across the globe.

Components
Modern day aero bike comes with aerodynamic components such as aero wheels and aero helmets. Most brands also come with a combination of gears, carbon framing and strong durable wheels.

Uses
Aero bike is generally used for  bike riding competitions, riding tours and personal bike riding sport.

Advantages
Aero bike comes with the following advantages:
 Makes use of aerodynamics principles
 Comes with durable wheels that withstand friction in motion
 Easy changing of gears 
 Fast operation

Disadvantages
Aero bike comes with the following disadvantages:
 Heavier than a comparable non-aero bike
 Could be stiff sometimes when in use
 Long and low race geometry

Mill Race Bridge. Mill Race Bridge is a historic structure located northwest of Eldorado, Iowa, United States. It spans the Turkey River for . Its name is derived from its location near a riverside mill. Horace E. Horton, a civil engineer from Minneapolis, had designed wagon bridges for Fayette County in the 1880s. When he joined the Chicago Bridge & Iron Company late in the decade, he took the county with him as a client. Chicago Bridge & Iron was responsible for providing the county's bridges in the 1890s. This bridge was completed about 1892, but its concrete abutments are not original. While it remains in place, but it has been replaced by a newer span. The Mill Race Bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.
