Robert Ash (engineer). Robert Lafayette Ash is a Professor of Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering and an Eminent Scholar at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia.

Early life and education
In 1968, Ash graduated from Tulane University in New Orleans with a PhD in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, and in 1963, he graduated from Kansas State University with a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering. Ash's father-in-law was Lewis Webb Jr., who served as the first president of Old Dominion University.

His research interests include vortical flows, non-equilibrium phenomena, space systems, and Mars resources.

Publications
His most cited papers are: 
Bushnell, D. M., Hefner, J. N., and Ash, R. L. (1977). "Effect of Compliant Wall Motion on Turbulent Boundary Layers. presented at the I.U.T.A.M. Symposium on Structure of Turbulence and Drag Reduction, Physics of Fluids, 20 (10 part 11), (pp. S31-S58)." (cited 170 times according to Google Scholar)
Khorrami, M. R., Malik, M. R., and Ash, R. L. (1989). "Application of Spectral Collocation Techniques to the Stability of Swirling Flows." Journal of Computational Physics, 81, (pp. 206–229).(cited 150 times, according to  Google Scholar)
Ash, R. L., Dowler, W. L., and Varsi, G. (1978). "Feasibility of Rocket Propellant Production on Mars." Acta Astronautica,  5, (pp. 705–724). (cited 100 times, according to  Google Scholar) 

Groundbreaking for the era published and notable yet, Dr. Ash's In-Situ Resource Utilization (ISRU) paper, authored in 1978 as a visiting Old Dominion University (ODU) Senior Research Scientist at JPL, was the first instance of NASA research into ISRU production of liquid methane-based rocket propellants for a long-duration crewed missions to Mars' surface and return strategy.  As initial detailed work of this type, it directly inspired "Mars Direct" and "Mars Semi-Direct" approaches in the following decades, although NASA shifted focus and fiscal resources to LEO and the ISS soon thereafter, versus continuing Moon-to-Mars exploration.  As Mars exploration becomes more widely accepted, with the popular examples of SpaceX, Inspiration Mars, and Mars One, the trailblazing work of Dr. Robert "Bob" Ash, and those that followed, like Dr. Robert Zubrin (and others) beginning in the early 1990s, pioneered the difficult task of showing ISRU's benefits for long-duration, deep space and interplanetary surface exploration.  Use of ISRU is now considered central to the feasibility of any mission to Mars or beyond, and remains an area of very active research.

B-Scada. B-Scada (or Beyond–Scada) is a company based in Crystal River, Florida. B-Scada's product offerings include on-premises Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) and Human Machine Interface (HMI) software platforms, a cloud-based Internet of Things (IoT) software platform, and wireless sensing hardware.  It is one of the first companies to use data modeling in SCADA systems to create virtual representations of real world physical assets.

Data modeling

B-Scada uses data models as the basis of end users toolkits, which allow representations of assets with immediate interactions.  It provides “templating,” where a data model is created for a type of object instead of for a specific object. Conventional HMI and SCADA products bind data from programmable logic controllers (PLCs) or other data sources directly to the graphics. Data modeling in HMI/SCADA allows the virtualized model of assets to be bound to the HMI/SCADA screens. The PLC or OPC Server memory addresses plus any additional associated information can then be referenced at run time, allowing one generic data model template to be used for many different specific assets.

History

B-Scada was founded as Mobiform Software in 2003 by Ron DeSerranno, former Senior Software Engineer of Rockwell Software, Inc./Dynapro, Inc., where he served as the Development Lead and Architect for its industrial automation product, RSView.

Beyond SCADA

In October 2012, Mobiform Software announced it had changed its name to B-Scada (Beyond SCADA). It continued trading under the stock ticker symbol MOBS until announcing in October 2014 its new stock ticker symbol, SCDA.

Fuzz Mobile Marketing Solution 
In July 2019, B-Scada launched Fuzz Mobile Marketing Solutions Inc., an online platform for sending bulk SMS messages.

John Conrad Jaeger. John Conrad Jaeger, FRS (30 July 1907 – 15 May 1979), was an Australian mathematical physicist.

Biography
Jaeger was born in Sydney, Australia, to Carl Jaeger, a cigar manufacturer of German origin. In 1924, Jaeger entered Sydney University at the age of 16, studying engineering, mathematics, and physics, and earned a B.Sc. in 1928. He then spent two additional years at Cambridge University, completing Part II of the Mathematical Tripos and continuing with research in theoretical physics.

In 1936, Jaeger began teaching mathematics at the University of Tasmania. He later moved to the University of Sydney, where he was appointed to a chair in mathematics and collaborated with Professor Horatio Scott Carslaw on applying mathematics to heat conduction. Their co-authored textbook, Conduction of Heat in Solids, became a seminal work in the field.

After the World War II, Jaeger returned to Tasmania as a senior lecturer and authored several books, including new editions of Operational Methods in Applied Mathematics (with Carslaw in 1948) and Conduction of Heat in Solids (with Carslaw in 1959). He also published An Introduction to Applied Mathematics in 1951 and An Introduction to the Laplace Transformation in 1959.

In 1951, Jaeger was invited to chair the new Department of Geophysics at the Australian National University in Canberra. He moved there in 1952, delivering his inaugural lecture in 1953 and initiating several research projects in the following years. The department was later named the Department of Geophysics and Geochemistry. Jaeger retired from ANU in 1972.

Jaeger died in Canberra in 1979. He was married twice: first to Sylvia Rees, from whom he divorced in 1950, and later to Martha Elizabeth (Patty) Clarke. He had no children from either marriage.

In honor of his contributions to Australian Earth science, the Australian Academy of Science annually awards the Jaeger Medal.

SAE 310S stainless steel. SAE 310S stainless steel is the low carbon version of 310 and is suggested for applications where sensitisation, and subsequent corrosion by high temperature gases or condensates during shutdown may pose a problem.

Overview
SAE 310 stainless steel is a highly alloyed austenitic stainless steel used for high temperature application. The high chromium and nickel content give the steel excellent oxidation resistance as well as high strength at high temperature. This grade is also very ductile, and has good weldability enabling its widespread usage in many applications.

310/310S find wide application in all high-temperature environments where scaling and corrosion resistance, as well as high temperature strength and good creep resistance are required.

Kasto. Kasto Maschinenbau, based in Achern-Gamshurst, Germany, specialises in sawing and storage technology of bar stock. The company manufactures metal-cutting saws, semi-automatic and automatic storage systems as well as automatic handling systems for metal bars, sheet metal and pre-cut parts.

History 

In 1844, carpenter Karl Stolzer set up the company as a mechanical workshop in Achern, in the Baden-Württemberg region of Germany. Initially, Stolzer focused on the manufacture of "machines with wooden constructions and iron-plated parts". The company manufactured products such as water wheels, weaving looms and paper and milling machines. With the construction of saw mills and later of saw mill plants, Karl Stolzer set the foundations for his company's success.

With the invention of the hacksaw machine in 1947, Kasto took a vital step towards becoming a modern machine tool manufacturer. In the 1960s, circular saws were added to the product range. With its move into series and volume cutting production, Kasto recognised the need to mechanise bar stock storage and material handling. At the beginning of the 1970s, Kasto introduced the first fully automated bar stock storage system. It featured a portal operating gantry crane for the handling and transport of self-supporting cassettes. This was the precursor of the first combined storage and sawing systems that Kasto manufactured from 1980 onwards.

In 2014 Kasto celebrated its 170th anniversary. For over 25 years, Armin Stolzer has been at the helm of this family business – now in its fifth generation – and has recently brought the sixth generation on board as well.

Corporate structure 
Kasto produces exclusively in Germany. In addition to its headquarters in Achern and a branch in Schalkau, Thuringia, the company has subsidiaries in England, France, Singapore, Switzerland and the United States.

Susan Brown (mathematician). Susan North Brown (22 December 1937 – 11 August 2017) was a professor of mathematics at University College London and a leading researcher in the field of fluid mechanics.

Background and employment 
An exact timeline for Susan Brown's career has been difficult to pin down, but a newsletter published by Department of Mathematical and Physical Sciences at UCL shortly after her death offers a framework for her career achievements and highlights the esteem in which she was held by colleagues and students. Her undergraduate degree in mathematics was from St Hilda's College, Oxford.  For about two years more years she continued studies at Oxford, in theoretical fluid mechanics—and she then moved to the University of Durham to complete her DPhil in 1964.  During this time she held temporary Lectureships at both Durham and Newcastle and in 1964 began a Lectureship that started her long association with UCL.  From her Lectureship she advanced to a Readership in 1971 and was appointed to a Professorship in 1986.  The afore-mentioned departmental newsletter that recapped her accomplishments after her death expresses the belief that Brown was the first female in the UK to be appointed to a professorship in Mathematics, but Joan E. Walsh was promoted to a professorship in mathematics at the University of Manchester in 1974.

Research 
Brown's department described her as an outstanding teacher and someone with an international reputation for her research.  She had a productive partnership in fluid dynamics with UCL colleague Keith Stewartson—who also arrived at UCL in 1964. Quoting from the afore-mentioned departmental newsletter, " Together they published 29 papers and pioneered early developments of 'triple-deck' theory, which, in turn, enabled resolution of long-standing questions in steady and unsteady trailing-edge flows, and addressed associated important aerodynamic applications. Another area for which Brown was especially renowned was a series of discussions of critical layers, especially effects of viscosity and nonlinearity and applications to geophysical flows such as atmospheric jets."  Google-Scholar lists numerous papers for the pair "SN Brown, K Stewartson" and several of these are listed below.

Death
Brown died on 11 August 2017, aged 79, in London.
