Jewelry model. A jewelry model is a master design that is copied to make many similar pieces of jewelrey.  The model may either be a piece of actual finished jewelrey or a low-cost blank fashioned from base metal.  In either case, the model is used to create the casting mold from which all subsequent pieces are made.
Prefabricated models are available from a number of sources to supply the hobby and high-volume jewelrey manufacture trade.

Recalescence. Recalescence is an increase in temperature that occurs while cooling metal when a change in structure with an increase in entropy occurs. The heat responsible for the change in temperature is due to the change in entropy. When a structure transformation occurs the Gibbs free energy of both structures are more or less the same. Therefore, the process will be exothermic. The heat provided is the latent heat.

Recalescence also occurs after supercooling, when the supercooled liquid suddenly crystallizes, forming a solid but releasing heat in the process.

Laser scanning vibrometry. The scanning laser vibrometer or scanning laser Doppler vibrometer, was first developed by the British loudspeaker company, Celestion, around 1979, further developed in the 1980s, and commercially introduced by Ometron, Ltd around 1986. It is  an instrument for rapid non-contact measurement and imaging of vibration.

Fields where they are applied include automotive, medical, aerospace, micro system and information technology as well as for quality and production control. The optimization of vibration and acoustic behavior are important goals of product development in all of these fields because they are often among the key characteristics that determine a product's success in the market. They are also in widespread use throughout many universities conducting basic and applied research in areas that include structural dynamics, modal analysis, acoustic optimization and non-destructive evaluation.

The operating principle is based on the Doppler effect, which occurs when light is back-scattered from a vibrating surface.   Both velocity and displacement can be determined by analyzing the optical signals in different ways. A scanning laser vibrometer integrates computer-controlled X,Y scanning mirrors and a video camera inside an optical head.  The laser is scanned point-by-point over the test object's surface to provide a large number of very high spatial resolution measurements.  This sequentially measured vibration data can be used to calculate and visualize animated deflection shapes in the relevant frequency bands from frequency domain analysis. Alternatively, data can be acquired in the time domain to, for example, generate animations showing wave propagation across structures.  In contrast to contact measuring methods, the test object is unaffected by the vibration measuring process.
 
Vibrometry covers a huge range of applications such as the study of microstructures moving only a few pm at frequencies up to 2.5 GHz, all the way up to the intense dynamics occurring in Formula 1 engines with vibration velocities approaching 30 m/s.

A 3D scanning vibrometer combines three optical sensors that accurately detect dynamic movement from different directions in space in order to completely determine the 3D vectors of motion. The software allows each individual x-, y- or z-direction component to be displayed independently, or combined into a single representation. Data can be exported for finite element model validation at nodes previously imported from the model for scan grid definition.

SBB Ee 3/3 IV. The  Ee 3/3IV, the fourth iteration of the Ee 3/3 series, is a class of ten shunting locomotives specially designed for use as pilots at border stations.  The complicated equipment needed for four different electrical systems required a higher and wider body in front of and behind the cab and a reduction in power.  Nevertheless, thanks to a modern crank drive, a maximum speed of 60 km/h can be attained.

History 
The Ee 3/3IV are used in French and Italian border stations, mostly at Geneva, on similar duty to the previous versions. All locomotives were equipped with a multiple drive in 1994, similar to the Ee 3/3II. During the upgrade the locomotives received new service numbers (Ee 934).

Due to their ability to run on 1,500 V DC system, they were occasionally used to haul passenger trains between La Plaine and Geneva when the SBB BDe 4/4 II were being repaired.

Gimhae Air Base. Gimhae Air Base  is a Republic of Korea Air Force (ROKAF) base adjacent to Gimhae International Airport. Runway 18L/36R is used for military purposes only.

Units
The base is home to the ROKAF's 5th Tactical Airlift Wing (제5전술공수비행단), comprising:
 251st Tactical Air Support Squadron flying the C-130H and C-130H-30
 258th Tactical Support Squadron flying the CN235-100M and CN235-220M
 259th Tactical Air Support Squadron flying the UH-60P

The ROKAF's 4 Boeing 737 AEW&C Peace Eye aircraft were all delivered to the base which is to be the home base for the aircraft.

Until September 2010 a contingent of United States Air Force personnel of the 607th Materiel Maintenance Squadron served in a co-located operating base on Gimhae Air Base.

History
The base was originally established during the Korean War as Pusan West (K-1) Air Base and hosted United States Air Force and United States Marine Corps units.

On 25 June 1950, 10 divisions of the North Korean People's Army attacked the Republic of Korea. The North Koreans quickly overwhelmed the South Korean Army and moved south. Following the passing of United Nations Security Council Resolution 83 on 27 June 1950, President Truman ordered US forces to defend the Republic of Korea. On 30 June 1950 C-54s of the Fifth Air Force began transporting a battalion of the 24th Infantry Division from Itazuke Air Base to K-1, however the weight of the C-54s damaged the runway and later flights were made using C-47s. On 2 July the Battalion, known as Task Force Smith, boarded trains to Taejon and was destroyed on 4 July in the Battle of Osan.

On 7 July 1950 two L-5s and an SC-47 from the 3rd Air Rescue Squadron (3rd ARS) deployed to K-1 from Ashiya AB in Japan, but the aircraft proved unsuitable for the terrain and returned to Japan on 16 July. On 30 August, the 3rd ARS formally organized Detachment F, with six H-5s at K-1. Following the success of the Inchon landing Detachment F moved north to Seoul (K-16) Air Base.

On 24 December 1950 the Air Defense Section of Marine Tactical Air Control Squadron 2 was deployed to K-1 to establish a tactical air command center.

By April 1951 K-1 served as the headquarters of the First Marine Air Wing and Marine Aircraft Group 12 was based at K-1 to provide aircraft for combat missions and special missions. VMA-513 flying F7Fs and F4U-5Ns were flying out of K-1 and providing the sole night fighter air defense and interdiction support to all UN forces in Korea.

On 31 May 1951 a US Navy R5D-3 #56513 hit a mountain at the end of the base killing all 5 passengers and crew.

In November 1951 the 1903rd Aviation Engineer Battalion arrived at K-1 and relieved the First Marine Air Wing of all responsibilities for maintaining the base and runways. Maintenance responsibility was later assumed by the 366th Aviation Battalion.

From October to December 1952, the 17th Bombardment Wing was based at K-1 to allow for the resurfacing of the Pusan East (K-9) Air Base runway from PSP to asphalt.

Thomas M. Klapötke. Thomas Matthias Klapötke (born 24 February 1961 in Göttingen) is a German inorganic chemist at Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, studying explosives.

Klapötke grew up in Berlin and studied at Technische Universität Berlin (TU Berlin), completing his undergraduate degree in 1982, his PhD in 1986, and his habilitation in 1990.  Klapötke worked as a lecturer at TU Berlin until 1995, when the University of Glasgow hired him for the Ramsay professorship.  Since 1997, Klapötke has worked at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich (LMU) as a professor of Inorganic Chemistry.

Klapötke's lab at the University of Munich is a group of about 30 employees, mainly studying explosives. Klapötke's goal is to generate "green" explosives, that either burn to completion or leave few toxic residues.  Die Zeit called it "the only university laboratory in Germany investigating implements of war".  For this reason, the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution watches Klapötke's lab quite closely.  Klapötke is funded both by the German federal government and the US military and has won a number of awards, including the 1986 Schering Prize.

Sri Lanka Railways M3. Sri Lanka Railways M3 was a class of Diesel-electric locomotive that was created in 1955 by the Ceylon Government Railway (now Sri Lanka Railways) to be used on the Ceylon national rail network.

History 

In 1955, the state owned Ceylon Government Railway manufactured Sri Lanka's "first" diesel-electric locomotive using old spares from the withdrawn and scrapped Class S1 DMU power sets. This locomotive was named  "Jayanthi" and classified as the Class M3 No. 589. The locomotive was put to service on 5 September 1956. Two years later in 1958, the railway manufactured another locomotive and classified it as the Class M3 No. 590.

The reconditioned Jayanthi was built at the Ratmalana Railway Workshop under the guidance of Chief Engineer Mr. Raj Gopal. The locomotive made its maiden journey on 5 September 1956. The inauguration of the train was performed by Maithreepala Senanayaka, the then Minister for Transportation. 

Both locomotives were scrapped in 2002.
