Dodge EV. The Dodge EV concept car, also called Dodge Circuit EV sports car, was a two-passenger, rear-wheel-drive, all-electric sports car shown to the public at the 2009 North American International Auto Show by Dodge.

The car was based on the Lotus Europa S, and combined a lithium-ion battery pack with a  electric motor, capable of  of torque.

Dodge claimed that the Dodge EV had a driving range of , approaching the range and performance of the all-electric Tesla Roadster, which is built on the same chassis. According to Dodge, the Dodge EV could be recharged in eight hours using a standard 120V outlet, or in only four hours using a 240V outlet, the type commonly used for electric ovens and dryers.

Dodge unveiled the working prototypes of this all-electric vehicle and announced plans to bring it to market in the United States by 2010.
But in May 2009 Autocar claimed the project was cancelled
and in November Fiat SpA disbanded Chrysler's ENVI electric car division and dropped its models from future product plans.

RMIT School of Computing Technologies. The RMIT School of Computer Technologies is an Australian tertiary education school within the STEM College  of RMIT University.

Location
The school is located in Building 14 (levels 8 to 11) in Swanston Street at the RMIT City campus. Previously the school was located in Building 10 at RMIT's City campus and also part of the school was located at RMIT's Bundoora campus.

History
The first computer at RMIT, an Elliott Automation model 803, was acquired at the instigation of the Department of Mathematics during the early 1960s, and located on the ground floor of Storey Hall.
The School of Computer Science and Information Technology (which has had several names) became a separate academic department of RMIT in 1980. The first PhD in Computer Science awarded at RMIT was in 1988 to Dr Alan Kent for his thesis on "File access methods based on descriptors and superimposed coding".

In 1990, the Multimedia Database Systems group within the school became a research centre led by Professor Ron Sacks-Davis. Following the development of TeraText (a non-relational text database system), the commercial arm of the group (including TeraText) was in 2001 spun off into a separate company, InQuirion. RMIT subsequently sold TeraText and InQuirion to SAIC in 2006.

University Development Center. A University Development Center (UDC) is an educational-work co-operational program that was founded by Smiths Aerospace in 2005, which was acquired in 2007 by GE Aviation, in Houghton, Michigan. The program employs students from the local Michigan Technological University to work on programs that the company is currently working. This provides real world work experience for future engineers as well as provide cost effective outsourcing for GE Aviation in the United States.

In 2007, the Houghton UDC moved to the once condemned Houghton Power House located near the Houghton/Hancock Lift Bridge. The project was an ambitious one on part of both GE and MTEC SmartZone, with the support of the Michigan Economic Development Corp in excess of 1 million dollars.

Currently one other UDC program has been founded by GE Aviation: Kansas State University in Manhattan, Kansas

LFG V 20. 

The LFG V 20 Arkona (named for Kap Arkona on Rügen) was a seaplane airliner produced in small quantities in Germany in the early 1920s. It was a conventional, strut-braced, low-wing monoplane with an enclosed cabin for four passengers. The undercarriage consisted of twin pontoons. Originally produced in wood, a metal version of the aircraft was also developed

The V 20s were operated by Luft-Fahrzeug on its Hamburg-Stettin-Danzig and Stettin-Swinemünde-Stralsund routes.

The LFG V 101 Jasmund (named for Jasmund on Rügen) was a seaplane airliner produced in small quantities in Germany in the 1920s. It was a conventional, strut-braced, low-wing monoplane with an enclosed cabin for five passengers, an enlarged, metal development of the V 20 Arkona (of which a metal version had already been flown).

The V 101 was produced to operate alongside the V 13s and V 20s in service with Luft-Fahrzeug and Luftverkehr Pommern on seaplane routes in North Germany from 1926, possibly in favour of the V 59 that had been considered for this role.

Head impact telemetry system. Head Impact Telemetry System (HITS) is a hardware and software system intended as a shock detector and logger; the hardware is embedded in football helmets and transmits data to a computer.

The system was developed by Simbex, based on Lebanon, New Hampshire, in collaboration with Virginia Tech, starting around 2000. By 2006 the system weighed about six ounces and had six sensors, a small computer, a battery and a radio; helmets including the system were marketed by Riddell and a set of 40 cost around $50,000 at that time. At that time nine NCAA football teams and a high school team were testing it, and the NFL had decided it not well validated enough to use.

Screw press. A screw press is a type of machine press in which the ram is driven up and down by a screw. The screw shaft can be driven by a handle or a wheel. It works by using a coarse screw to convert the rotation of the handle or drive-wheel into a small downward movement of greater force. The overhead handle usually incorporates balls as flyweights. The weights helps to maintain the momentum and thrust of the tool to make it easier to operate.  

The screw press was first invented and used by the Romans in the first century AD. It was used primarily in wine and olive oil production. The screw press was also used in Gutenberg's printing press in the mid-15th century.

A press for metalworking is a machine tool used to shape or cut metal by deforming it with a die.  It is frequently used to punch holes in sheet metal in one operation, rather than by cutting the hole or drilling.  

A screw press is often used in hand book binding to help keep the covers of books flat and parallel to the text block while the glue is drying.

If used as a punch, the tool itself consists of a punch and a matching die, into which it very closely fits. Both are usually precision machined and then hardened. The material is introduced between the punch and die, and the machine operated. The punch will cut through the material in one movement by shearing it.  The punch and die may be of any desired shape, so odd shaped holes and cutouts may be created.

If used as a forging tool, the dies can be many different shapes varying from flat to various shapes that will mold the metal to the desired configuration.

Fly press

A fly press is a type of screw press in which the screw shaft is driven by a flywheel or a pair of fly weights at the ends of a bar. The wheel can either be cranked by hand or driven by a motor using a friction coupling. The wheel is weighted so its momentum will maintain the motion of the shaft. A fly press which is operated by hand is the simplest of all presses, it consists of mass, handle, body, arm, screw, ram, stop collar, treads, and guides.

Improvements 
A planetary roller screw can provide about twice the maximum force as a screw press actuator using the same materials.

Tonnage monitor. A tonnage monitor is a meter used on a stamping press to measure the force applied by the ram.  In a press, the cutting and forming tools in the die will wear down, requiring increasing effort to stamp the part.  A tonnage monitor allows the user to observe this degradation and decide when it is time to sharpen and adjust the die.  It generally uses strain gauges attached to the frame or tie rods of the press.  The gauges provide an electric signal by means of piezoelectric effect as they are stretched during press operation.

The tonnage monitor may provide any of the following additional features:
 Warning indication when the load exceeds a setpoint
 A press stop signal to halt the press at the top of the stroke for when the load exceeds a set point.  This signal is generally used to watch for sudden events such as a tool breaking or a part becoming jammed.
 Recording of successive press hits to show the operational trend
 Graphing of a single stroke.  With a progressive die, such a graph can be used by the tool and diemaker to view the operation of the different cutting pieces and thereby optimize tool performance.

Opencast (software). Opencast (formerly known as Opencast Matterhorn) is a free, open-source software for automated video capture, processing, managing, and distribution, mainly for academic institutions. Opencast is built by a community of developers in collaboration with universities and organizations worldwide.

History, community 

The Opencast Community was initiated by the University of California, Berkeley in 2007 to coordinate academic institutions, individuals, and companies interested in the production, management, and distribution of academic video.

The software project, originally named Opencast Matterhorn due to a meeting at ETH Zurich, saw 13 institutions from North America and Europe build a free, open-source software to produce, manage and distribute academic audio and video content, with a focus on lecture recordings. The project received funding from the Hewlett Foundation and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Opencast Matterhorn 1.0 was released in 2010.

With the end of the yearlong funding period, community and project set themselves up as an open-source initiative, driven by the various stakeholders (academic institutions, commercial partners).

Coinciding with the release of version 2.0 in the summer of 2015, "Opencast Matterhorn" was rebranded as "Opencast" to denote the end of the (Matterhorn) project and its transformation into an open source product.

A year later, Opencast joined the Apereo Foundation. The Foundation is a non-profit organization which fosters use and development of free, open-source software in higher education and serves as legal entity for a series of open-source projects.

Software, releases 

Opencast follows a time-based release cycle, publishing two major releases per year and several minor bugfix and maintenance releases in between. The two major releases are usually released per year, one in June and one in December, with a detailed release calendar being published usually half a year before the release.

Since version 3.0 Opencast uses a major.minor version schema, indicating the major release and the bugfix level. Versions are actively maintained for one year–the latest two major releases–though specific versions may get long-term support from the community.

HSM-41. Helicopter Maritime Strike Squadron 41 (HSM-41), nicknamed the "Seahawks", is a United States Navy helicopter squadron based at NAS North Island, San Diego, California.

History
Helicopter Maritime Strike Squadron 41 (HSM 41) is the Navy's Fleet Replacement Squadron dedicated to training new MH-60R pilots and aircrew. When commissioned on 21 January 1983, as Helicopter Anti-Submarine Light 41 (HSL-41) it was the Navy's first Light Airborne Multi-Purpose System (LAMPS) MK III squadron and flew the Sikorsky SH-60B helicopter. HSL-41 trained pilots and aircrew for the west coast HSL squadrons in San Diego, Hawaii, and Japan.

The success of West Coast LAMPS detachments in the Pacific Ocean, Indian Ocean, and Persian Gulf is a tribute to the quality of initial and follow-on training that has been the hallmark of HSM 41. As a result, the squadron was awarded the Meritorious Unit Commendation in 1985, 1988, 1991 and 2002.

On 8 December 2006, HSL-41 was re designated from Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squadron Light 41 to Helicopter Maritime Strike Squadron 41. In February 2008, HSM 41 surpassed 140,000 flight hours without a major aircraft incident and celebrated its 25th anniversary. Since 1983, HSM 41 has trained over 3,000 Fleet Replacement Pilots and Aircrew for service in LAMPS MK III and MH-60R fleet squadrons.  In 2020, the squadron reached 230,000 flight hours without a major incident.

On 14 March 2013, a helicopter belonging to the squadron made an emergency landing in Chula Vista.

Bernard Chouet. Bernard A. Chouet (born 14 October 1945) is a geophysicist who specializes in volcanic seismology.  He discovered that volcanic eruptions could be predicted by observing the frequency of certain seismic waves that are generated by volcanoes.

Background 

Bernard Chouet was born on 14 October 1945 in Nyon, Switzerland.  In 1968 he received a diploma in electrical engineering from the Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, Switzerland.  After graduation, he worked briefly at a Swiss robotics laboratory.  Seeking an opportunity to do research in robotics, he subsequently worked at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT); specifically, at the Man-Vehicle Laboratory in the Center for Space Research, which was doing research for NASA’s Apollo program to land men on the Moon.  However, when NASA’s budget was reduced, he was free to pursue other interests.  As a teenager, he had become interested in volcanoes.  So, after completing a master of science degree in aeronautics and astronautics at MIT in 1972, he pursued studies in geophysics.  His ambition was to use seismology to predict the behavior of volcanoes.  In 1973 he received a master of science degree in earth and planetary sciences from MIT, and in 1976 he received a Ph.D. in geophysics from MIT.  From 1976 to 1983 he worked as a research associate in MIT’s Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences.  Since 1983 he has worked for the U.S. Geological Survey in Menlo Park, California—first in its Office of Earthquakes, Volcanoes, and Engineering, and then as a member of its Volcano Hazards Team.  Bernard Chouet is married to Paula Dickson; the couple have one son.

Prediction of volcanic eruptions 

Since 1977, Chouet’s colleague Keiiti Aki had been developing mathematical models of magma-filled fractures in volcanoes, in order to determine what seismic waves would be produced by such fractures.  Since 1985 Chouet himself had also been developing models of such fractures.  The turning point in Chouet’s research occurred in 1986, when Chouet examined the seismic records of the 1985 eruption of the Nevado del Ruiz volcano in Colombia.  In the seismic records, he found that so-called “B-type events” or “long-period events” had occurred with increasing frequency prior to the eruption.  (“Long-period events” are the records of seismic waves that are produced by volcanic fluids surging through fissures in a volcano—a phenomenon similar to water hammer.)   Chouet then used the occurrence of long-period events to predict the 1989 and 1990 eruptions of Mount Redoubt in Alaska and the 1993 eruption of Galeras in Colombia.  In 2000, Mexican officials used Chouet's methods to predict the eruption of Popocatépetl in Mexico.

Armstrong Siddeley Hyena. The Armstrong Siddeley Hyena was a British aero engine developed by Armstrong Siddeley.  Designed in the 1930s, it was an unusual experimental radial engine with inline cylinder banks. It was flown using an Armstrong Whitworth A.W.16 fighter aircraft as a test bed. Unresolved problems with cooling of the rear cylinders prevented the engine from going into production. Few details of this engine survive as company records were lost.

Ferrari Millechili. The Ferrari Millechili (Italian for one thousand (mille) kilograms (chili)) is the name of a concept car shown at a technical symposium at Ferrari's headquarters in Maranello in 2007. It is also the name of a project by Ferrari to develop and manufacture a lightweight sports car. The development of the Millechili is being done in collaboration with University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, faculty of Mechanical Engineering. MilleChili Lab is a cross-project in which students are working on light-weight car design.

The Millechilli is  long, with a  wheelbase, resulting in an appearance of a scaled-down Enzo. The concept has an aluminum structure, a titanium transmission case, and several aerodynamic aids that reduce drag.

Millechili Lab

Millechili Lab is a part of the Millechili Project, created in February 2009 by the University of Modena's Engineering Faculty in collaboration with Ferrari.
 
The Millechili Lab is to study and design a light-weight automotive chassis for high-performance cars, thanks to the work of under-graduate and post-graduate students, all trained inside the Lab. There are only a few constrictions for the new designed lay-out: the possibility of industrialization and the respect of every performance target given by Ferrari. The future chassis, created for a mid-engine design car, should be designed in 3 years.

The Lab, thanks to Ferrari research funds, has four UNIX workstations supporting multiple users and also used as a 32CPUS' Cluster, and a brand-new cluster with 24CPUS. The Lab has also two Windows workstations. Every interactive computer is equipped with various pieces of software, such as CAE (CAD, FEA, Material Selector, etc...) programs, all the same used by Ferrari, to simplify information exchange.
