Fauvel AV.31. The Fauvel AV.31 was a design for a French flying wing airliner conceived by Charles Fauvel in the early 1940s.

Design and development
The AV.31 was a giant transport plane with a wingspan of  and a take-off weight of 200 tonnes. All the passengers, fuel, and engines were situated in the wing, reducing the cockpit to a small nacelle in front of the wing. The passenger cabin, fully submerged in the wing, was 27 m long and 9 m wide, and could accommodate a variety of layouts. A bomber version was proposed as the AV.32.

To test the flight characteristics of the AV.31, Charles Fauvel proposed a 1/3 scale flying model, which would have been propelled by four 250 hp "Béarn" engines and had a span of , a take-off weight of 8150 kg, and maximum speed of 354 km/h.

The AV.31, despite its great potential, did not leave the drawing board.

Fauvel AV.28. The Fauvel AV.28 was a design for a fighter plane by Charles Fauvel in the late 1930s.

Design
The AV.28 was conceived as a two-seat, off-center cockpit fighter design powered by two Gnome-Rhône 14M Mars engines. Armament consisted of two  cannon and three  Darne machine guns. Fauvel presented the AV.28 to the French Air Ministry in 1938, but the design was rejected. In April 1940, Fauvel proposed another off-center cockpit design, the three-seat AV.30, to be powered by Pratt & Whitney engines, featuring a centrally controlled hydraulic turret, but France's defeat in 1940 prevented it from being realized.

Variants
Data from: 
 AV.28Two-seat twin fuselage tail-less fighter, to have been powered by two Gnome-Rhône 14M Mars engines.
 AV.30Three-seat twin fuselage tail-less fighter, to have been powered by two Pratt & Whitney R-2800 Double Wasp engines.

Fauvel AV.7. The Fauvel AV.7 was a design for a twin-hull seaplane by Charles Fauvel in the early 1930s.

Design
The AV.7 was a three-engine flying boat project, with a twin-hull configuration similar to that of the Savoia-Marchetti seaplanes of Italy. Conceived in May 1932, it had three engines on top of the wing, and with a design range of ~. However, the AV.7 did not proceed beyond the drawing board. Likewise, a single-hull trimotor design, the AV.9, remained a paper project.

Isamu Kenmochi. Isamu Kenmochi (, 1912 - 1971) was a Japanese modernist designer significant in the development of Japanese industrial design after World War II.

Isamu Kenmochi was born on 2 January 1912 in Tokyo. Kenmochi graduated from the Tokyo College of Industrial Arts (, now Chiba University Faculty of Engineering) in 1932. After his graduation, Kenmochi worked at the Industrial Arts Research Institute in Tokyo.

Kenmochi met artist and designer Isamu Noguchi in the summer of 1950 on Noguchi's first trip to Japan. Together, the two developed a number of furniture designs, pioneering the Japanese Modern style which integrated the material culture of Japanese furniture with modernist styles.

In 1952, Kenmochi visited the United States, later writing about the visit in the Industrial Arts Research Institute's publication, Kogei Nyusu. Later that year, Kenmochi became a founding member of the Japan Industrial Designers Association.

In 1964, Kenmochi's 1958 design for a lounge chair commissioned by the Yamakawa Rattan Company was added to the design collection of the MoMA. The design additionally won the G-Mark Prize (Good Design Selection System).

Kenmochi died by suicide on 3 June 1971 in Shinjuku, Tokyo.

Iconary. Iconary is an AI-driven, Pictionary-style  online game developed at the Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence. Publicly released in February 2019, the game is designed to encourage collaborative communication between a human player and the AI player AllenAI. Iconary is the first demonstration of an AI system capable of playing a Pictionary-like game with a human partner.

Researchers at the institute intended Iconary to highlight the potential of collaborative communication with an AI agent in a game setting, as contrasted with other highly publicized AI-backed games that place humans in adversarial roles against an AI system. Pictionary creator Robert Angel noted of Iconary "it’s not me against you, it’s us as a team against another team”.

The AllenAI system behind Iconary can compose scenes based on a given phrase for the human player to guess, as well as attempt to guess a phrase depicted by the human player. The AllenAI system combines elements of computer vision, natural language understanding, and commonsense reasoning to compose scenes or to make guesses about a scene. The system was trained using data from collaborative games between two human players, using over 75,000 unique phrases and a constrained set of 1,200 icons. The phrases used in Iconary describe complex scenes or activities, e.g., “people jogging in the park” or “engineer riding a train”. The  limited vocabulary of icons requires players to create novel combinations of icons to communicate a phrase to their partner, and to make use of abstract symbols (like arrows to signify motion) or contextual clues (like a stethoscope next to a figure of a person to signify "doctor") to successfully depict a concept.

DWWR 13. The DW&WR 13 was an 0-6-0 goods locomotive class built in 1904 at Grand Canal Street railway works for the Dublin, Wicklow & Wexford Railway and was followed by four more of the same class, two being contracted to Beyer, Peacock & Company.

Design
These followed on from the 0-6-0s Nos. 17 and 36 built around the turn of the century but were more powerful and standardised. The first engine, No. 13 (Waterford) in 1904, and the last engine, No. 18 (Limerick) in 1910, both had large sliding cab sheets. The engines constructed in 1905, No. 14 (Enniscorthy) and the Beyer-Peacock pair Nos. 65 and 66 (Cork and Dublin) had large sliding cab windows. No. 18 which was constructed last after a gap in 1910 included some parts from the earlier 4-2-0 No. 18. Being excellent steamers with good ergonomics, suspension and ride they were generally liked by crews and a 1948 CIÉ report complimented them: DSER edition of Standard Goods (Class 101): quite good.  Their successors, the Nos. 15 and 16 were originally meant to be enlarged version of this class but axle loading and the length of the  turntable led their designer Wild to a 260 mogul design that received the even more excellent report: One of the best Goods on the system, very powerful and reliable with low axleload. Unfortunately only two in class.

Service
The main duties were goods services on the Wexford and Waterford via the DW&WR's route via Macmine junction which opened in 1905. They also handled the day goods from Waterford to Dublin and found occasional use on passenger services and excursions.

On the merger to the Great Southern Railways in 1925 there numbers were changed from 13, 14, 18, 65 and 66 to 442 through 446 respectively. While 442 was withdrawn in 1930 only 5 years after receiving a new boiler the remaining 5 locomotives lasted until 1955–1957 by which time CIÉ 1,200hp 
 A and 500hp C diesels had been introduced.

DWWR 50. Dublin, Wicklow and Wexford Railway (DW&WR) 50 and 51 were two 0-6-0 tender locomotives built in 1891 at Vulcan Works and were named Arklow and New Ross respectively.   These were the first the 0-6-0 wheel configuration to be purchased by the DW&WR. The DW&WR's own Grand Canal Street were to construct two more in 1899/1900 and to follow that with a design for five more from 1904. The DW&WR became the Dublin and South Eastern Railway (DSER) from the end of 1906. Under the locomotive engineer R. Cronin both engines were rebuilt with Belpaire boilers in 1912 and 1915 respectively and the boiler pressure increased to 160 lb.

The second engine No. 51 was deliberately destroyed in a head-on collision in the Irish Civil War. On 23 January 1923 New Ross was hauling the 6:30 am goods train from Waterford when a large force attacked the  in County Wexford. The force organised a deliberate head-on collision with that of a cattle special from the opposite direction, which on that day to due to disruptions was being hauled by the DSER's newest express passenger engine Rathcoole. Both engines were ultimately deemed unsalvagable.

The remaining engine passed to Great Southern Railways (GSR) on amalgamation in 1925 being allocated the new number 447 and a new class of 447/J7, being the only member of that class. Thenceforth it was mainly used for goods work on the Shillelagh branch line until withdrawal in 1930.

AIR Index. AIR Index is a British standardised motor vehicle emissions ranking system introduced in February 2019 by Allow Independent Road-testing (AIR). The objective of the system is to encourage the use of independent and meaningful motor vehicle NOx emissions tests to robustly inform consumers and policymakers of the real-world impact motor vehicles will have on urban air quality.

Background
AIR, the United Kingdom-based group behind the index, is an alliance of scientists, academics and economists from public and private organisations and is a not-for-profit organisation. The alliance aims to provide independent and rigorous data that will help consumers and policymakers reduce the negative impact that motor vehicles have on urban air quality. Nick Molden, one of the co-founders of AIR, said: "The transparent publication of independent, on-road emissions testing results is the most efficient way to improve air quality." Another co-founder Massimo Fedeli said: "It gives easy to understand, at-a-glance information on actual vehicle emissions in towns and cities." The ambition for the founders of AIR is that their AIR Index scheme will have a similar impact on real-world vehicle emissions as the Euro NCAP scheme has on real-world vehicle safety.

Vehicle testing and ranking
The AIR Index gives individual vehicle models an A, B, C, D or E rating, and correspondingly colour-coded as green, yellow-green, yellow, amber or red (in a similar way to the European Union energy label system used for domestic appliances). The rankings are based on the nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions of the vehicle, independently measured in a standardised way, and on at least two independently sourced vehicles, with a portable emissions measurement system (PEMS) in real-world urban driving situations.

The rating is based on the number of milligrams per kilometre (mg/km) of NOx emitted as follows: A (green) = 0-80, B (yellow-green) = 80-168, C (yellow) = 168-270, D (amber) = 270-600 and E (red) = 600 and above.

The ratings of six Euro 6 compliant cars were published at the time the AIR Index scheme was launched.

Reception
The leader of the West Virginia University team that discovered some of the early evidence of the Volkswagen Dieselgate scandal, Dan Carder, director of their Center for Alternative Fuels, Engines and Emissions, said: "If the AIR Index had been implemented 15 years ago, Dieselgate would likely not have happened."

Expansion
In March 2019, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) became the first European car producer to submit new cars from its marques for testing.
