Swedish Transport Administration. The Swedish Transport Administration () is a government agency  in Sweden, controlled by the Riksdag and the Government of Sweden. It is responsible for long-term infrastructure planning for transport: road, rail, shipping and aviation. It owns, constructs, operates and maintains all state-owned roads and railways and operates many car ferry services.

The agency is a member of the Nordic Road Association. For shipping and aviation, it only does planning and purchasing unprofitable traffic. Trafikverket does not do practical physical work to construct or maintain roads or railways, because that is done by separate companies which Trafikverket write contracts with and pay.

History
A special committee oversaw the effectiveness of the Swedish transport agencies during 2008 and 2009. A conclusion was reached that there would be significant gains compared with the then-present situation if a new agency responsible for long-term planning of the transport system for road, rail, maritime and air traffic was formed. Preparations started in the autumn of 2009, and the new authority began its work on 1 April 2010.

It took over all operations of the Vägverket [road administration] and Banverket [rail administration], as well as parts of the Swedish Maritime Administration, Civil Aviation Administration and the Swedish Institute for Communications Analysis, except that some practical operations were transferred to new commercial companies. These companies do road and railway building and maintenance, airport operations etc.

Companies separated from predecessors of Swedish Transport Administration 
 Svevia, road construction and maintenance
 Infranord, railway construction and maintenance
 SJ AB, passenger train operator.
 Green Cargo, freight train operator.
 Euromaint, train maintenance, sold to a private owner.
 Jernhusen, owns railway related buildings, mainly railway stations.
 Swedavia, owns major profitable airports (smaller unprofitable airports are normally owned by municipalities and regions)

Other agencies within the transport sector 
Many activities have historically been performed by national business agencies such as SJ, Banverket and Swedish Road Administration. These agency activities has been taken over by the Swedish Transport Administration or by these agencies, if they weren't given to companies.

 Swedish Maritime Administration, maintains and regulates ship routes.
 Civil Aviation Administration, handles air traffic control and navigation infrastructure
 Swedish Transport Agency (Transportstyrelsen), a different Swedish government agency which handles legal regulation and control over transport operation.

Morane-Saulnier MS.603. The Morane-Saulnier MS.603 was a French-built two-seat light aircraft of the late 1940s.

Design and development
The  MS.603 was one of three aircraft constructed in the MS.600 series which were built to compete in an officially-sponsored 1947 contest for a light two-seat side-by-side club aircraft to be powered by a  engine.

The initial MS.600, powered by a  Mathis G-4F piston engine, was a fixed gear, low-winged monoplane of mixed construction, with a single fin and the tailplane set just above the fuselage and a clear perspex canopy over a side-by-side cockpit for two persons. All three aircraft, MS.600, MS.602 and MS.603, were ready for flight in 1947 with the MS.600 flying on 4 June 1947.

A parallel development, the MS.602, powered by a  Minie 4DA piston engine, was similar in most respects to the MS.600 and flew on 24 June 1947.

A more powerful derivative emerged as the MS.603, powered by a  Hirth HM 504A-2 engine and fitted with a fixed tricycle undercarriage. The tailplane was also moved to a high set position on the fin and supported by struts.

Operational history
Initially registered F-WCZU in the experimental series, and re-registered F-PHQY in the amateur-operated series, the MS.602 was owned by Messieurs Gambi and Chanson and based at Saint-Cyr-l'École airfield to the west of Paris.  By 1983, the aircraft had been withdrawn from service and scrapped.

The sole MS.603, construction No. 1, was initially registered F-WCZT and later re-registered F-PHJC. It was flown for many years by the Aero Club de Courbevoie. By 1963 it was operated by M. Jean Forster, based at Guyancourt airfield, but was withdrawn from use by 2006 when it was stored at the Musee de l'Aviation du Mas Palegry - (Mas Palegry Aviation Museum) near Perpignan.

Variants

Girl Geek Dinners. Girl Geek Dinners is an informal organisation that promotes women in the information technology industry, with 64 established chapters in 23 countries. The organisation was founded in London, United Kingdom, by software engineer Sarah Lamb (née Blow), who felt women were under-represented at information technology events after attending a geek dinner in 2005.

Chapters organise local events featuring both female and male speakers with mostly female attendees. Events are different from geek dinners in that men can only attend as invited guests of women, ensuring that women will never be outnumbered by men at events.

A typical event is an informal dinner, followed by one or more presentations by featured speakers.

IMAM Ro.58. The IMAM Ro.58 was an Italian twin-engined, two-seat monoplane heavy fighter and attack aircraft, a development of the IMAM Ro.57. First flown in May 1942, it was considered a general improvement over its predecessor, mainly due to the substitution of higher power Daimler-Benz DB 601 engines for the Fiat A.74 engines used on the Ro.57. Initially it had many problems and during the maiden flight only the proficiency of the test pilot, Adriano Mantelli, saved the plane.

It was easily recognizable because it appeared to have a long hump over the fuselage (to accommodate two crew members as opposed to one in the Ro.57). The Ro.58 was a twin-tailed aircraft, in layout similar to the Messerschmitt Bf 110.

The performance of the aircraft with the DB 601 engines was much better than even many single engine fighters of the time (605 km/h at 5,000 m, 1,500 km endurance, 10,500 m ceiling).

More heavily armed than its predecessor, with five forward-firing MG 151s; three in the nose and two under the belly (the underbelly guns were not present during the first flight tests) and one 12.7 mm rear-facing Breda-SAFAT machine gun.

Tested alongside an Me 410 it was found to be superior, but even so it initially had its share of problems that delayed production. By the time it was refined it was too late for Italy, and there were no resources even for single-engine fighters, much less the more expensive twin-engined ones.

As with the Ro.57, which was not put into production in 1940 or 1941, the Ro.58, better armed and faster appeared only in May 1942, and too late to be produced in any numbers, as Italy surrendered to the Allies in September 1943.

Specifications
One prototype only produced.

Great Lakes XTBG. The Great Lakes XTBG-1 was an American prototype torpedo bomber, intended for service in the United States Navy as part of that service's plan to modernise its aerial striking force in the mid-1930s. The XTBG-1 was outperformed by the competing TBD Devastator, however, in addition to having instability problems and only a single prototype of the three-seat design was constructed during 1935.

Design
Featuring retractable landing gear and a fully enclosed weapons bay for its torpedo, the XTBG-1 had the unusual feature of the torpedo-aimer seated forward of the wing, in a small, enclosed compartment.

Ipoly (Ipeľ) Bridges. In the past there were 47 bridges on the Ipoly (Ipeľ) River, but most of them were destroyed in World War II. Recently 10 bridges existed, three railway and seven road bridges. The most well-known are the border crossing road bridges near Balassagyarmat or near Šahy (Ipolyság) (part of European main road E77) and railway bridge near Szob (part of Pan-European Corridor IV.) near the junction of the Ipoly and Danube.

Reconstruction of the destroyed bridges was initiated after the fall of socialism. Concrete plans and permissions have been elaborated in last few years. At the moment there are projects for 9 bridges on ca 100 km long section of the river between Ipolytarnóc and Szob. The first Hungarian – Slovak interstate agreements for building a bridge near the town of Szécsény and another near the village of Nógrádszakál on the upper part of the river were signed in November 2007. In 2009 this project was approved by the Hungary – Slovakia Cross-border Co-operation programme. In March 2010 the constructors were chosen and 2 bridges inaugurated in December 2011 and February 2012. Governments have reached agreement about the rebuilding of another two bridges on lower part of river near Vámosmikola and near Szob, which was opened in July 2023.

After the accession to the European Union and to the Schengen Area local people installed a few foot bridges, mostly in places of former bridges.

Hydroxyquinol. Hydroxyquinol is an organic compound with the formula C6H3(OH)3.  It is one of three isomeric benzenetriols.  The compound is a colorless solid that is soluble in water.  It reacts with air to give a black insoluble solid.

Production
It is prepared industrially by acetylation of paraquinone with acetic anhydride followed by hydrolysis of the triacetate.

Historically, hydroxyquinol was produced by the action of potassium hydroxide on hydroquinone. It can also be prepared by dehydrating fructose.

C6H12O6   →   3 H2O + C6H6O3

Natural occurrence
Hydroxyquinol is a common intermediate in the biodegradation of many aromatic compounds.  These substrates include monochlorophenols, dichlorophenols, and more complex species such as the pesticide 2,4,5-T. Hydroxyquinol commonly occurs in nature as a biodegradation product of catechin, a natural phenol found in plants (e.g. by soil bacteria Bradyrhizobium japonicum). Hydroxyquinol is also a metabolite in some organisms. For instance, Hydroxyquinol 1,2-dioxygenase is an enzyme that uses hydroxyquinol as a substrate with oxygen to produce 3-hydroxy-cis,cis-muconate.

PM M71 Floating Bridge. The PM M71 is a Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRJ) licence-built pontoon bridge of the Soviet PMP Floating Bridge designed after the WWII. The PM M71 deployment process is the same as for Soviet PMP and was primary designed and used by Yugoslav People's Army.

Development of the PM M71 began at the end of the 1960s in the MTRZ Sava Kovačević plant in Tivat, with the designation "Project 382". Production began in 1971 and deliveries were made to the Yugoslav People's Army throughout the 1970s and 1980s.

Similar to the Soviet PMP, the PM M71 initially used Yugoslav-made FAP 2220 BDS/A trucks for transporting and FAP 1314 S/AV for towing and removing the RPP M68 tugboat. During the 1980s, the set was modernized with newer FAP 2026 BDS/A and FAP 2026 BS/AVG trucks.

The PM M71 bridging set includes:
32 floating sections (pontoons),
4 abutment sections,
2 road covers,
12 RPP M68 tugboats,
38 FAP 2026 BDS/A trucks for transportation of the sections,
12 FAP 2026 BDS/AVG trucks for towing of tugboats,
other accompanying elements (boats, tools, accessories, etc.)

The complete set of PM M71 equipment is used to construct 20 ton and 60 ton carrying capacity bridges and 20 ton up to 180 ton carrying capacity ferries. During Croatian army exercise Kupa 17, it was noted that a main battle tank can move at 30 km / h, with the distance of 30 meters between tanks across a deployed PM M71 bridge.

Usage 
After the breakup of Yugoslavia, the PM M-71 was used in the Yugoslav Army, Army of Republika Srpska and the Croatian Armed Forces.

Currently, two pontoon battalions of the River Flotilla of Serbian Armed Forces are equipped with the PM M71.

Mario Kovač (scientist). Mario Kovač is a Croatian computer engineering professor and inventor. He is a professor at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing (FER) at the University of Zagreb who specialized in VLSI and was also involved in the creation of the early AMP MP3 player as mentor to Tomislav Uzelac.

Kovač graduated from the aforementioned university faculty in 1988 and obtained a master's degree in 1991. In 1991 he received a VLSI and Computer Architecture Scholarship at the University of South Florida, and he subsequently received the Fulbright Award in 1993. Kovač obtained a doctorate at FER in 1995. He holds  for a VLSI circuit structure for implementing the JPEG image compression standard, among others. In 1995 he received the Best Paper Award at the 8th International Conference on VLSI Design.

In 1996, one of Kovač's students, Tomislav Uzelac wrote the AMP MP3 player as his diploma thesis under the tutelage of Kovač.  In 1997, American media entrepreneur Brian Litman met Uzelac and they jointly formed a partnership Advanced Multimedia Products (AMP) in order to market the AMP MP3 engine. Shortly after, in 1998, Uzelac introduced Litman to his professor Kovač.  They agreed to merge the original Advanced Multimedia Products partnership of Litman/Uzelac into a broader digital media enterprise called PlayMedia Systems.  The venture was formed to capitalize on the growing popularity of the core AMP MP3 technology.  In particular, AMP began to realize rapid usage due to its usage for the MP3 decoder function in WinAmp which is a portmanteau of Windows + AMP. Kovač became the founding CTO of this firm, whose mandate was to develop digital media technologies.

Between 1998 and 2000 Kovač was the head of the Department of Control and Computer Engineering at FER, and between 2000 and 2002 he was the vice-dean for management.

In 2008, the President of Croatia awarded him with the Order of Danica Hrvatska with the image of Ruđer Bošković for special merit in science.

He is a member of the supervisory boards of Croatian agencies/companies CARNET (since 2004), HIT - Croatian Institute of Technology (since 2006), and BICRO (since 2004).

North American XSN2J. The North American XSN2J-1, also known by the company designation NA-142, was developed for the United States Navy by North American Aviation as a replacement for the SNJ Texan as an advanced scout-trainer. Designed in competition with the Fairchild XNQ, the XSN2J-1 first flew on 15 February 1947, two aircraft being evaluated by the Navy. Neither aircraft were considered satisfactory in evaluations; in addition, restrictions on the Navy's budget meant that the aircraft could not be ordered at the time, and the program was cancelled in 1948. The similar T-28 Trojan would later be ordered to fill the Navy's requirement for a new trainer.
