Design 1065 ship. The Design 1065 ship (full name Emergency Fleet Corporation Design 1065) was a wooden-hulled cargo ship design approved for production by the United States Shipping Boards Emergency Fleet Corporation (EFT) in World War I. A total of 7 ships were ordered and completed for the USSB from 1918 to 1919. The ships were constructed at the Bellingham, Washington shipyard of Pacific American Fisheries. The USSB originally wanted Pacific American Fisheries to follow its standard "Ferris-type" design (Design 1001) used by other shipyards but PAF was successful in convincing them to use their own design which they felt was more seaworthy. The cost was $50,000 per ship.

Umling La. Umling La or Umlung La is the highest paved road and mountain pass in the world, located in Ladakh, India, on the ridgeline between Koyul Lungpa and the Indus River near Demchok. At an elevation of , it forms the source for the Umlung stream that drains into the Indus and a tributary of the Kiungdul river that drains into Koyul Lungpa. 

The Umling La pass is traversed by a road between Chisumle and Demchok, also called the Umling La Road, which ascends to a height of 5799 metres (19024 feet) in the vicinity of the pass, making it the world's highest motorable road.

Chisumle–Demchok road 

In 2017 a  paved road was constructed between the villages of Chisumle and Demchok by the Border Roads Organisation of India. The elevation at Umling La of  surpassed the record previously held by the  Uturuncu volcano road, Bolivia, making it the world's highest motorable road and pass. It is higher than Mount Everest's South Base Camp, which is at , and over half the cruising altitude of commercial jet airlines. The environment posed severe challenges for construction, with winter temperatures falling to , and oxygen levels 50% lower than at sea level.

The pass is located at Kilometre 24 on the road.

World records 
On September 16, 2022, at 11:04 a.m. (Indian Standard Time), a Canadian team (Greg Harris and Priya Singh) and a Swiss team (Michele Daryanani & Nevena Lazarevic) set the world record for the highest altitude at which an auto rickshaw has ever been driven. The two teams set the record by driving to the summit of Umling La Pass at an altitude of 5,799 meters (19,024 feet).

The two teams were participating in the Rickshaw Run (Himalayan Edition), an event promoted by The Adventurists, where teams drive auto rickshaws from the Thar desert town of Jaisalmer in Rajasthan to the Himalayan town of Leh in Ladakh. Rickshaw Run teams are given the start and finish lines, but are otherwise unsupported and left to their own navigational choices in completing the approximately 2,300 km journey.

George Hurwood. George Hurwood (1798 - 1864) was an English engineer active in Ipswich, Suffolk. He played a major role in the installation and development of Ipswich Docks.

He was the son of William Hurwood, a millwright based in Ballingdon, near Sudbury. After an apprenticeship with his uncle, Samuel Wright, also a millwright, but based in Ipswich, George developed a broad range of skills. These he further developed through devoting much of his spare time to making working models of various machines including a model steam engine.

In 1842 Hurwood succeeded Henry Robinson Palmer running Ipswich Dock, when Palmer relinquished the post following he completion of the dock in 1842. In 1860 Hurwood gave a presentation about the River Orwell and the Port of Ipswich summarising the work of William Chapman and Palmer and subsequent developments  following his appointment.

Marshall Building. The Marshall Building, formerly known as the Hoffman & Sons Co. Building, is a historic building in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, United States. Part of the Historic Third Ward, the six-story building is the oldest existing example of structural engineer Claude A. P. Turner's Spiral Mushroom System of flat-slab concrete reinforcement.

History
The building was originally constructed as a five story structure in 1906 for John Hoffman & Sons Company, a wholesale grocer specializing in the manufacturing of coffee, tea and spices. When the project was in its early stages of design, Milwaukee consulting engineer John Geist came across an article written by Claude A.P. Turner in Engineering News about a new flat-slab system that Turner had developed for the Johnson-Bovey Building in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He traveled to Minneapolis to observe the load tests for the building and asked Turner to design a similar type of flat-slab system for the building in Milwaukee.

Turner's flat-slab system differed from previous reinforced concrete construction methods in that it consisted of only floor slabs and supporting columns, eliminating the need for beams below the floors. His Spiral Mushroom System, also known as the Turner System, referred to a cage of radial and tangential bars at the top of each column that imparted shear strength to the slab and also provided cantilever support.

A sixth floor was to the structure in 1911 to accommodate the growth in Hoffman's business and was used to accommodate their coffee roasting equipment; however, beginning in the late 1920s the firm began to share space in the building with other manufacturers. The building was purchased in 1947 by developer George Bockl and was renamed the following year after his son Robert Marshall. Bockl sold the building in 1966 but later reacquired it in 1974.

On March 8, 1984, the building became a contributing property of the Historic Third Ward District.

In 2002, the Marshall Building was designated as a National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark by the American Society of Civil Engineers.

Today the building is primarily used as office space and art galleries.

HMS Cadmus (J230). HMS Cadmus (J230) was a steam turbine-powered  during the Second World War. Launched in 1942 the ship survived the war and was sold to Belgium in 1950 as Georges Lecointe (M901).

Design and description

The turbine-powered ships displaced  at standard load and  at deep load.  The ships measured  long overall with a beam of . The turbine group had a draught of . The ships' complement consisted of 85 officers and ratings.

The ships had two Parsons geared steam turbines, each driving one shaft, using steam provided by two Admiralty three-drum boilers. The engines produced a total of  and gave a maximum speed of . They carried a maximum of  of fuel oil that gave them a range of  at .

The Algerine class was armed with a QF  Mk V anti-aircraft gun and four twin-gun mounts for Oerlikon 20 mm cannon. The latter guns were in short supply when the first ships were being completed and they often got a proportion of single mounts. By 1944, single-barrel Bofors 40 mm mounts began replacing the twin 20 mm mounts on a one for one basis. All of the ships were fitted for four throwers and two rails for depth charges.

Construction and career

Service in the Royal Navy 
The ship was ordered on 15 November 1940 at the Harland & Wolff at Belfast, Ireland. She was laid down on 21 July 1941 and launched on 27 May 1942. She was commissioned on 9 September 1942.

Service in the Belgian Navy 
Cadmus was renamed Georges Lecointe (after Belgian polar explorer Georges Lecointe) and was commissioned on 31 January 1950.

In 1959, she was decommissioned by the Navy and on 24 April 1960, she was sold to J. Desmedt Burcht Belgium. Her scrapping process started on 19 May.

Sintex. Sintex (formerly known as The Bharat Vijay Mills Ltd and Sintex Industries Ltd) is the world's largest producer of plastic water tanks and Asia's largest manufacturer of corduroy fabrics. 

The company operates in Europe, America, Africa, and Asia, especially in France, Germany, and the US. It primarily works with building materials, textiles, prefabricated structures, custom molding products, monolithic construction and water storage tanks.

In March 2023, it was announced that, in separate agreements, Sintex Industries Ltd. (SIL) and Sintex Plastics Technology Limited were acquired by Reliance Industries (RIL) and Welspun Group, respectively. After completing the purchase, RIL now holds 70% of SIL's share control and will manage the company jointly with Assets Care & Reconstruction Enterprise (ACRE).

History
Bharat Vijay Mills Limited was incorporated in June 1931 and started a composite textile mill in Kalol, Gujarat that same year. In 1975 it was renamed Sintex Industries Limited and was listed on the Mumbai Stock Exchange in 2000.

Sintex expanded significantly in the 2000s, including the acquisition of U.S.-based Wausaukee Composites. In 2007 the offshore holdings segment, Sintex Holdings BV Netherlands, acquired the automotive branch of Bright Brothers Ltd to form Bright Autoplast, also called Sintex BAPL, and the French company Nief Plastics was acquired, to be later renamed Sintex NP. In 2015 Bright Autoplast signed onto a joint venture with Rototech Group to expand its coverage of automotive applications, calling the joint unit BAPL Rototech.

In 2017 Sintex demerged, with its textiles business remaining under the name Sintex Industries Limited, while the plastics and prefab side became Sintex Plastics Technology Limited.

Sintex Industries Limited
Despite strong initial showings after the demerger, in June 2019 Sintex Industries was downgraded by CARE Ratings to "issuer non-cooperating" and defaulted on non-convertible debentures from Punjab National Bank. Another default later that year precipitated a plea by Invesco Asset Management in December 2020 and Sintex Industries entered bankruptcy in April 2021.

Sintex Plastics Technology Limited
Sintex developed an anaerobic digester in 2008 that captures emissions from human waste for use as fuel or for generating electricity.

Sintex began a campaign called ReviveOurRivers in October 2017 encouraging people to make a pledge to keep rivers clean.

In August 2019, Sintex Plastics sold the entirety of subsidiary Sintex NP SAS to XTECH Invest. The French unit was known as Nief Plastic SA before Sintex acquired it in 2007.

In March 2021, Sintex Plastics reported a major fire at the Sanaswadi plant, part of the Sintex-BAPL material subsidiary.

Heuliez GX 437. The Heuliez GX 437 is a single-decker bus made by the French bus manufacturer Heuliez Bus designed for use in public transport, and is the articulated version of the Heuliez GX 337. The GX 437 is the successor to the Heuliez GX 427, which went out of production at the end of 2013. Diesel, Hybrid and Electric powered versions of the GX 437 exist.

Together with the GX 137 and GX 337 the Heuliez GX 437 forms a series called Access BUS 3rd generation.

Design and characteristics 
The bus was designed on a Iveco Bus Urbanway 18-chassis. As a result, the bus has the same properties as the Iveco Bus Urbanway. In June 2014, it was presented at the European Mobility Exhibition at Villepinte Exhibition Center. Three-door and four-door versions of the bus exist.

The electric busses are equipped with a 160/200 kW electric traction motor and with an energy & power Li-ion NMC battery system (250 kWh). The bus can run 120 km on a single charge and can optionally be recharged with an on-board pantograph, but conventional or a mix of both charging options are also available.  

In addition to the standard region-/city bus design the bus is also available in a HOV/BRT (Bus Rapid Transit)-design, which is being marketed as the "GX LINIUM" series.

Production 
All Heuliez GX 437 are built at the Heuliez Bus factory in Rorthais, Deux-Sèvres, France. In the future only the electric version will be produced, production of the diesel version will be phased out.

Operators 
The Heuliez GX 437 is used primarily in Europe, mainly by French public transport companies.

In The Netherlands electric versions of the bus are operated by Qbuzz in Utrecht and Groningen, In Norway the electric version is used in Trondheim since 2019.

Ms2 (software). ms2 is a non-commercial molecular simulation program. It comprises both molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulation algorithms. ms2 is designed for the calculation of thermodynamic properties of fluids. A large number of thermodynamic properties can be readily computed using ms2, e.g. phase equilibrium, transport and caloric properties. ms2 is limited to homogeneous state simulations.

Features 
ms2 contains two molecular simulation techniques: molecular dynamics (MD) and Monte-Carlo. ms2 supports the calculation of vapor-liquid equilibria of pure components as well as multi-component mixtures. Different Phase equilibrium calculation methods are implemented in ms2. Furthermore, ms2 is capable of sampling various classical ensembles such as NpT, NVE, NVT, NpH. To evaluate the chemical potential, Widom's test molecule method and thermodynamic integration are implemented. Also, algorithms for the sampling of transport properties are implemented in ms2. Transport properties are determined by equilibrium MD simulations following the Green-Kubo formalism and the Einstein formalism.

Applications 
ms2 has been frequently used for predicting thermophysical properties of fluids for chemical engineering applications as well as for scientific computing and soft matter physics. It has been used for modelling both model fluids as well as real substances. A large number interaction potentials are implemented in ms2, e.g. the Lennard-Jones potential, the Mie potential, electrostatic interactions (point charges, point dipoles and point quadrupoles), and external forces. Force fields from databases such as the MolMod database can readily be used in ms2.

Phosphide silicide. Phosphide silicides or silicide phosphides or silicophosphides are compounds containing anions composed of silicide (Si4−) and phosphide (P3−). They can be considered as mixed anion compounds. They are distinct from the phosphidosilicates, which have the phosphorus bonded to the silicon. Related compounds include the phosphide carbides, germanide phosphides, nitride silicides, and antimonide silicides.

One preparation method is to heat a metal phosphide with silicon in a silica tube. Phosphorus must be prevented from evaporating. Another method is to use a liquid tin flux.

Phosphide silicides may be present as minerals. They are under investigation as photovoltaic materials.

Faille. Faille is a type of cloth with flat ribs, often made in silk. It has a softer texture than grosgrain, with heavier and wider cords or ribs. Weft yarns are heavier than warp, and it is manufactured in plain weaving.  It was especially popular in the 19th century.

Material 
Faille was primarily made with silk, variations with cotton and wool were also there.  A French silk variant was called ''Faille Francaise.'' The similar grosgrain has been described as a "firm, stiff, closely woven, corded fabric. The cords are heavier and closer than those in poplin, more round than those in faille."

Variations 
Faille fabric is characterized by its prominent rib and is manufactured by employing fine filament yarns in the warp and heavy spun yarns in the filling. Typically, it is a heavyweight fabric, although lighter weight variations of faille, known as tissue failles.

Use 
Faille was a fabric with lower luster, better drape and feel in comparison to counterparts like Grosgrain. It was used in ladies' dresses, suits and spring coats. Tissue faille was once acknowledged as a trademark fabric and widely utilized in the creation of blouses.
