Defence Technology Institute. The Defence Technology Institute (Public Organization) (DTI) is a research and development agency operating as a public organization under the oversight of the Thai Ministry of Defence.

Background
The DTI was founded on 1 January 2009 as part of a programme to increase domestic arms manufacturing capabilities.

Research and development
The DTI produces the Black Widow Spider 8x8 armoured vehicle for the Thai army in collaboration with Ricardo.

In 2017 DTI signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Leonardo helicopters covering "technology transfer and the establishment of helicopter maintenance, repair & overhaul".

The DTI has been involved in experiments to reduce air pollution in Bangkok using water-spraying drones.

In 2018, DTI signed a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with UK defence company, Arturius International and its Thai representative, GCS Group Corporation Company. The collaboration aims to create a Counter Threat Centre of Excellence in Thailand.

Gp Capt Chamnan Kumsap, director for knowledge management and the publication department at the DTI told the Bangkok post in 2018 that, "We plan to draft the Defence Technology Agency bill because it will unlock our ability to conduct joint defence projects".

Charles Winsor. Charles Paine Winsor (June 19, 1895 – April 4, 1951) was an American engineer, physiologist and biostatistician.

Winsor was born in Boston to Frederick Winsor and Mary Anna Lee Winsor in 1895. He studied at Harvard University where he obtained 2 degrees (AB and SB) in engineering. From 1921 to 1927 he worked as an engineer at the New England Telephone and Telegraph Company. His interest in biology made him switch career and he moved to Baltimore to work for Raymond Pearl, and he returned to Harvard to finish his PhD in 1935 in general physiology under W. J. Crozier. Following this, from 1938 to 1941 he worked at the Statistical Laboratory at Iowa State College as Assistant Professor of mathematics. During the war he worked at Princeton University under a contract from the Office of Scientific Research and Development. Following the war, in 1946 he went back to Baltimore and become Assistant Professor of Biostatistics in the School of Hygiene and Public Health, Johns Hopkins University. It was during this time that he became the editor of the scientific journal Human Biology. He died suddenly (cause not stated) April 4, 1951 at the age of 55. He was survived by his wife Agnes Winsor.

He is most known for inventing the method of winsorization in statistics, which is now named after him.
He was named a Fellow of the American Statistical Association in 1949.

Reactivity controlled compression ignition. Reactivity controlled compression ignition (RCCI) is a form of internal combustion developed at the Engine Research Center, University of Wisconsin–Madison, United States, by the research group of Wisconsin Distinguished Professor Rolf Reitz.

During RCCI combustion, well-mixed low-reactivity fuel and oxidizer (typically air) are compressed but not reaching auto-ignition. Later, still during compression cycle, high-reactivity fuel is injected to form a local mixture of low- and high-reactivity fuel. Finally the whole fuel charge is ignited near top dead center of the piston by injection of high-reactivity fuel. The RCCI combustion process requires two different fuels. Low-reactivity fuel gets injected into the intake ports with low pressure during the intake stroke. High-reactivity fuel gets injected into the cylinder with high pressure at the end of compression stroke. A throttle characteristic to Otto engines is not needed. Because of compression ignition and lack of throttle control, RCCI resembles much the diesel process. The dual-fuel RCCI can produce ultra-low NOx and soot emissions and higher thermal efficiency compared to conventional diesel combustion.

RCCI patents are controlled by University of Wisconsin–Madison’s Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation (WARF). Several derivative ideas have also been experimented with by Caterpillar.
