Kikaider Reboot. , also known as Kikaider: The Ultimate Human Robot, is a 2014 Japanese science fiction tokusatsu film directed by Ten Shimoyama. The film is a reboot of the Kikaider franchise created by Shotaro Ishinomori.

Plot
In the near future, the Japanese government develops the ARK Project, led by Dr. Nobuhiko Kohmyoji, to create androids to help public citizens. Two prototypes are constructed: one by Dr. Kohmyoji, Jiro/Kikaider, an android built with an experimental Conscience Circuit, and another by Professor Gilbert Kanzaki, Mari, a combat-based android.

Dr. Kohmyoji mysteriously dies and his children, Mitsuko and Masaru are suddenly targeted by Japan's Defense Minister. Jiro comes to their aide and vows to protected them, a final request from Dr. Kohmyoji. Masaru becomes fond of Jiro but Mitsuko becomes wary of him. Mari eventually finds Jiro and nearly destroys him but spares him after Mitsuko and Masaru agree to go with her without resistance. A data chip is then retrieved from within Masaru's body, containing all of Dr. Kohmyoji's research. The Defense Minister then turns the ARK Project into the DARK Project (Developing Advanced Research by Kohmyoji) and forces Professor Gil to complete his work.

Jiro is then attacked by another android named "Hakaider", who is revealed to be Professor Gil, having surgically placed his brain within an android body. Hakaider proceeds to destroy the ARK Project facility where he is counter-attacked by Jiro. Mitsuko tries to stop him from fighting but Jiro finally realizes his own free-will and chooses to protect by fighting. Jiro manages to defeat Hakaider but at the cost of his life. Mitsuko vows to one day rebuild him.

In a post-credit scene, the Defense Minister, having escaped the demise of the facility with Mari, confirms the official start of the true android project.

Scientific collaboration network. Scientific collaboration network is a social network where nodes are scientists and links are co-authorships as the latter is one of the most well documented forms of scientific collaboration. It is an undirected, scale-free network where the degree distribution follows a power law with an exponential cutoff – most authors are sparsely connected while a few authors are intensively connected. The network has an assortative nature – hubs tend to link to other hubs and low-degree nodes tend to link to low-degree nodes. Assortativity is not structural, meaning that it is not a consequence of the degree distribution, but it is generated by some process that governs the network’s evolution.

Study by Mark Newman
A detailed reconstruction of an actual collaboration was made by Mark Newman. He analyzed the collaboration networks through several large databases in the fields of biology and medicine, physics and computer science in a five-year window (1995-1999). The results showed that these networks form small worlds, in which randomly chosen pairs of scientists are typically separated by only a short path of intermediate acquaintances. They also suggest that the networks are highly clustered, i.e. two scientists are much more likely to have collaborated if they have a third common collaborator than are two scientists chosen randomly from the community.

Prototype of evolving networks
Barabasi et al. studied the collaboration networks in mathematics and neuro-science of an 8-year period (1991-1998) to understand the topological and dynamical laws governing complex networks. They viewed the collaboration network as a prototype of evolving networks, as it expands by the addition of new nodes (authors) and new links (papers co-authored). The results obtained indicated that the network is scale-free and that its evolution is governed by preferential attachment. Moreover, authors concluded that most quantities used to characterize the network are time dependent. For example, the average degree (network's interconnectedness) increases in time. Furthermore, the study showed that the node separation decreases over time, however this trend is believed to be offered by incomplete database and it can be opposite in the full system.

Coal

According to the Sierra Club, as of 2016 there were a total of 16 coal-fired power plants in Missouri, a decrease from 2012, when there were 23. A Missouri City coal-fired power plant operated by Independence Power & Light closed in 2015; the facility was aging (60 years old) and could not comply with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency pollution regulations. In January 2015, Kansas City Power & Light Co. announced plans to stop burning coal at three of its generating units at Montrose Station, one at Lake Road Station, and two at Sibley Station. Coal burning would cease in phases (two units ceasing at the end of 2016, two at the end of 2019, and two at the end of 2021).

Natural gas

Renewable power stations

The Missouri Department of Natural Resources reports that the state has nine pumped-storage hydroelectricity facilities and 20 conventional hydroelectric plants; the latter include the Bagnell Dam on the Osage River, which has a capacity of 176 MW, and the Table Rock Dam on the White River, close to Branson.

In 2014, Missouri's largest solar farm was located in Greene County, on a 57-acre plot owned by City Utilities, and is operated by Strata Solar. It generates a mean of 4.95 MW that contribute to City Utilities' transmission grid.  Since 2017, the largest solar farm in Missouri is the Nixa Solar Farm and is owned by Gardner Capital and operated by MC Power Companies. It is located on 72 acres and can generate up to 7.92 MW for Nixa Utilities.  In 2018 it supplied Nixa with about 9% of its energy needs.

Vietnam Airlines Flight 474. Vietnam Airlines Flight 474 crashed on approach to Nha Trang Airport on 14 November 1992 during Cyclone Forrest. The aircraft was a Yakovlev Yak-40 registered VN-A449, a three-engined jet airliner built in the Soviet Union in 1976. One passenger survived, while the other 24 passengers and six crew were killed.

Event 
The aircraft was on a domestic scheduled flight from Tan Son Nhat International Airport to Nha Trang Airport. On approach to Nha Trang Airport during bad weather, it descended below a safe altitude and hit trees along a ridge of Ô Kha mountain, crashed, and was destroyed. It took rescuers eight days to find the wreckage of the plane but one passenger had survived.

Sole survivor 

Annette Herfkens was the sole survivor of the crash. She survived eight days with multiple injuries and sustained herself only on rainwater. Some passengers survived the initial impact but died before they could be rescued. Herfkens' fiancé, who was travelling with her, died instantly upon impact.

In 2014, Herfkens published the memoir recounting her experiences: Turbulence: A True Story of Survival. It has "...received great applause from [its] audience..." and critical acclaim from Deepak Chopra, Kirkus Reviews and other authors.  

Herfkens writes and speaks about the gains that come with loss. Nine years after the crash her son was diagnosed with autism; she now also works with parents of autistic children. Herfkens lives in New York City with her family. She is the sister of Dutch diplomat Eveline Herfkens.

Related deaths and aftermath
On 22 November 1992 a Vietnamese Mil Mi-8 helicopter was sent from Hanoi carrying rescue workers for Flight 474, but it crashed near Ô Kha mountain on the same day. All seven people aboard were killed.

Almost a year after the accident, family members in the UK demanded an investigation after receiving news that the bodies were returned to the wrong families.

Larssen sheet piling. Larssen sheet piling is a kind of sheet piling retaining wall. Segments with indented profiles (troughs) interlock to form a wall with alternating indents and outdents. The troughs increase resistance to bending. The segments are typically made of steel or another metal.

Larssen sheet piling was developed in 1906 by Tryggve Larssen, engineer from Bremen (Germany). Its applications include piers, oil terminals, waste storage facilities, shoreline protection, bridges, houses, buildings, dry docks, other construction sites, and for the strengthening of pond banks, preventing slumping into a pit, and flooding.

Construction

Lengths can reach 36 meters.

Each segment is flipped 180° versus the preceding segment. The segments lock together using a variety of interconnections.

The fully assembled structure is formed in a linear, circular, or other shape.

To reduce the filtering space, mixed sealant is injected. Additionally, it may be combined with the use of dowels, metal beams and pipes.

Metal dowels are hot-rolled steel and cold-rolled.

Design
 
 Tongue Larssen - Tongue Larssens are up to 34 meters long and 80 centimeters wide. They have locks, which allow people to connect one profile to another vertically to create a sealed metal diaphragm wall. Transverse profiles can be in the shape of letters: S, Z, L or Ω (Omega) where the trough can be of varying depth.
 Special Profile - Special profiles are long and narrow without locks. They usually have a wavy or trough shape to increase the resistance to bending.
 Cantilever - Bending moments and shears are calculated under the assumption that the wall is a cantilever beam fixed at the bottom of the wall.
Anchored Wall Design- Bending moments, shears, and anchor force are calculated under the assumption that the wall is a beam with simple supports at the anchor elevation and at the bottom of the wall (the place where the wall moves beneath the surface of the ground. With the bottom of the wall at the penetration consistent with a factor of safety of 1, the lateral reaction at the bottom support will be zero and the lateral reaction at the upper support will be the horizontal component of the anchor force.

Applications

Larssens are used in foundation pits, coastline strengthening, bridge construction, piers, tide control, flood protection, agriculture irrigation, water reservoir and other work requiring extremely strong support in a narrow geometry.

Driven to refusal. This is an engineering term for describing how far to drive piles.  It is also used in surveying when driving metal posts and monuments that  are to be used as bench marks (ie. the elevation of which will be established to a high degree of accuracy). When a very high degree of stability is required the post will be inside an oil filled outer casing to protect it against movement of the surrounding ground usually because of the frost.

A rod or pile has been "driven to refusal" when five more blows of an adequate hammer will not budge the rod or pile.

CM Labs Simulations. CM Labs Simulations is a private company established in Montreal in 2001. CM Labs is the developer of the Vortex simulation platform. The Vortex platform is composed of applications for creating interactive vehicle and mechanical equipment simulations in virtual environments. Vortex simulates rigid body dynamics, collision detection, contact determination, and dynamic reactions. CM Labs also manufactures crane and heavy equipment simulators based on Vortex technology.

History 
The company that was to become CM Labs Simulations was founded as Lateral Logic Inc. in 1994 by Jussi Westergren, Karsten Howes, and Frederic Francis. The company was focused on ground vehicle visual simulation systems, and the development of software toolkits for physics simulation. They released the Lateral Collision Engine (LCE) in 1998, targeting research and enterprise clients.

Lateral Logic was acquired by MathEngine PLC in April 1999 and was renamed Critical Mass Systems. MathEngine's original Dynamics Toolkit and Collision Toolkit were developed in part by Critical Mass Systems, and were targeted for a broad range of gaming, research, and academic markets through 2001.

In 2001, MathEngine spun off Critical Mass Systems business as CM Labs Simulations, consisting of the CM office in Montreal and a portion of MathEngine's technology, renamed Vortex. Vortex has been under active development ever since the initial launch of the software in 2001.

While MathEngine's remaining technology, itself renamed Karma, became fully absorbed into the Unreal and RenderWare game engines, CM Labs shifted its focus away from gaming to the visual simulation for training (VST) market, targeting Vortex at robotics and heavy-equipment operator training in both commercial and military applications.

Clients
CM Labs clients reportedly include FMC Schilling Robotics, iRobot, Honda Research, L3 Technologies, Lockheed Martin, NASA, and Carnegie Mellon University.
