Elan Village. Elan Village ()  is a small purpose-built community in Powys, Wales. It was designed by architect Herbert Tudor Buckland as part of Birmingham Corporation's scheme to construct a series of water supply reservoirs in the Elan Valley between 1892 and 1904. It housed workers and their families responsible for maintaining the scheme's dams and the filtration systems. Elan Village is the only purpose-built Arts and Crafts "model village" in Wales.

It is served by the B4518 road which runs three miles southwestwards from Rhayader to end at the village, though continuing as a minor road to Caban-coch reservoir. The road continues over the Elenydd to Cwmystwyth and a cul-de-sac branch runs to the dam of Claerwen reservoir. It is in the community of Rhayader.

Fibrenap (Cushy Pads). Fibrenap, also referred to as Cushy Pad, is a product made from wood wool bound in Kraft paper which can be used as an environmentally friendly method for packaging a wide range of items. Fibrenap, in its simplest form, comes as a roll of Kraft paper stuffed with wood wool and comes in a variety of widths. These rolls of Fibrenap can be cut to any length desired, wrapped in a plastic sleeve or made into bails. Any combination of these methods can be used to ensure it is in a form which is best suited to the item it is packaging. Fibrenap is most commonly used to transport heavy industry items to protect the items against vibrations and shocks which could occur during transportation.

Ernst Steinhoff. Ernst August Wilhelm Steinhoff (February 11, 1908 – December 2, 1987) was a German rocket scientist and member of the "von Braun rocket group", at the Peenemünde Army Research Center (1939–1945).  Ernst Steinhoff saw National Socialist (Nazi) doctrines as "ideals" and became a member of the NSDAP in May 1937. He was a glider pilot, holding distance records, and had the honorary Luftwaffe rank of "Flight Captain".

Ernst Steinhoff earned his PhD at the Technische Hochschule Darmstadt (today Technische Universität Darmstadt) in 1940 with a dissertation on aviation instruments.

His younger brother Friedrich Steinhoff assisted rocket experiments while commanding  in 1942.  Ernst was among the scientists to surrender and travel to the United States to provide rocketry expertise via Operation Paperclip.  Friedrich was captured aboard  and committed suicide in a Boston jail before Ernst came to the United States on the first boat, November 16, 1945. with Operation Paperclip and Fort Bliss, Texas (1945–1949).  He then moved to Holloman Air Force Base where he also worked closely with White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico.  He focused on guidance, control, and range instrumentation throughout his career. He was awarded the Decoration for Exceptional Civilian Service in 1958 for his contributions to the US rocket program. In 1979 he was inducted into the New Mexico International Space Hall of Fame.

Steinhoff is being credited as one of the first pioneers to popularize the concept of space resource utilization for Mars exploration. He became the first chairman of Working Group on Extraterrestrial Resources (WGER).

As of 1981, Mrs. Dixie Cantwell of Alamogordo, NM,  was working on researching and writing the biography of "Alamogordo's well-known scientist, Dr. Ernest A Steinhoff". The status of said biography, and its progress remains unknown.

His daughter Monika Steinhoff is a painter in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and a children's park on Holloman AFB is named after him.

Dean, Smith & Grace. Dean, Smith & Grace is a British manufacturer of lathes and milling machines, based in Keighley, West Yorkshire. Their products have been described as "the Rolls-Royce of lathes".

History 
The company was founded in 1865 by Joseph Dean (born c1825 in Barnoldswick, then in the West Riding of Yorkshire), in Bingley, West Yorkshire, known as "Old Dean", who retired in the late 1800s and died in Ilkley, West Yorkshire, in 1909.

In the late 1860s Dean Smith & Grace moved to Keighley, and exported machine tools across the Empire.  Following Joseph Dean's retirement, the company traded as Smith & Grace of Thrapston, The Smith and Grace of Thrapston were different individuals sharing the same surname. The assumed connection between the two companies is probably false. but in 1908 a private company was reformed as "Dean Smith & Grace 1908 Ltd".

By the early 20th century, Dean Smith & Grace had grown to be one of the leading heavy tool firms in Yorkshire. In response to the introduction of high speed steel around 1900, the company ceased building to customers' individual specifications and concentrated on a new type of steel geared lathe built for strength and rigidity.

Herbert Smith, the aircraft designer who was responsible for designs such as the Sopwith Triplane, Camel, and Snipe worked for the firm in the years before the First World War.

The company continued as an independent manufacturer until 1973 when bought out by the Monarch Machine Tool Company of Sidney, Ohio, USA.  By this time the company was noted for equipping the engineering research laboratories and workshops at UMIST in Manchester.  The same laboratory continues to use the same machines into the 21st century, citing them in their research publications. When Monarch went into bankruptcy the company was bought by Newsmith Stainless Limited of Roberttown, West Yorkshire, and now trades as Dean Smith & Grace Lathes UK Limited.

In 2012 the company was acquired by the MTTG group.

In April 2015, it was announced that Dean, Smith and Grace was to be moved to Halifax by MTTG.

5059 aluminium alloy. 5059 aluminium alloy is an aluminium–magnesium alloy, primarily alloyed with magnesium. It is not strengthened by heat treatment, instead becoming stronger due to strain hardening, or cold mechanical working of the material.

Since heat treatment doesn't strongly affect the strength, 5059 can be readily welded and retain most of its mechanical strength.

5059 alloy was derived from closely related 5083 aluminium alloy by researchers at Corus Aluminium in 1999.

Basic properties
5059 has a density of , with a specific gravity of 2.66.

Melting point is .

Chemical properties
The alloy composition of 5059 is:
 Magnesium - 5%-6% by weight
 Chromium - 0.3% maximum
 Copper - 0.4% maximum
 Iron - 0.5% maximum
 Manganese - 0.6% - 1.2%
 Silicon - 0.45% maximum
 Titanium - 4.6%
 Zinc - 0.4% - 1.5%
 Zirconium - 0.05%-0.25%
 Others each 0.05% maximum
 Others total 0.15% maximum
 Remainder Aluminium

Mechanical properties
The mechanical properties of 5059 vary significantly with hardening and temperature.

–O hardening
Unhardened 5059 has a yield strength of  and ultimate tensile strength of  from . At cryogenic temperatures it is slightly stronger; above  its strength is reduced.

Elongation, the strain before material failure, is 24% at room temperature.

–H131 hardening
yield strength of , ultimate tensile strength of .
Produced by Aleris under the AluStar brand.

–H136 hardening
yield strength of , ultimate tensile strength of .
Produced by Aleris under the AluStar brand.

–H321 hardening
H321 strain hardened 5059, with properties measured at , has yield strength of , ultimate tensile strength of , and elongation of 10%.

Uses
5059 has been used as a hull material for small aluminium boats or larger yachts. Its high strength and good corrosion resistance make it an excellent match for yachting.

5059 has been tested for use in vehicle armor.

5059 has been used for cryogenic propellant tanks for experimental reusable rocket vehicles.

Welding
5059 is often assembled using arc welding, typically MIG (for marine use) or TIG welding. The newer technique of Friction stir welding has also been successfully applied but is not in common use.

Arc welding reduces mechanical properties to no worse than –O hardening condition. The relatively low decrease in ultimate strength is extremely good performance for an aluminium alloy.

Curtiss-Wright Technical Institute. The Curtiss-Wright Technical Institute was an early professional trade school operated by the Curtiss-Wright corporation for aircraft maintenance training.   Director Major C. C. Moseley was one of only three school directors selected across America to set the standards for the pre-World War II civilian pilot training program.

The institute was first set up in the terminal building of the Grand Central Air Terminal in Glendale, California, expanding to neighboring hangars and buildings around the airport. Both TWA and American Airlines flew transcontinental service from the airport. During World War II, over 7500 mechanics were trained at the facility.

In 1950 the institute became part of the Grand Central Aircraft Company and Curtiss-Wright Technical Institute was renamed as the Cal-Aero Technical Institute. The U.S. Air Force used the institute to train mechanics on contract until 1952. Enrollment dropped sharply after the cancellation of the contract and the facility closed in 1954.

Coursework
At its peak, CWTI had eight fields of study.
Aeronautical Engineering
Post Graduate Aeronautical Engineering
Master Aviation Mechanic
Specialized Engine
Specialized Airplane
Specialized Sheet Metal
Aeronautical Drafting
Aircraft Blueprint Reading

History
The Institute taught practical aircraft design with students producing actual aircraft that went into production.

Martin Schempp taught courses in aircraft design at the CWTI. Together with students, they developed the 1932 Super Sailplane which served as the prototype  for the Bowlus 1-S-2100 Senior Albatross "Falcon" glider. This aircraft is on display in the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum. Richard C. du Pont was an early student who worked on the program and used the expertise gained to found the Bowlus-DuPont Sailplane Company in 1934.

In 1935, students built the Al Novotney designed Bunting I racer which competed in the National Air Races.

The Curtiss Coupe was designed by students and put in limited production by Curtiss-Wright in Robertson, Missouri.

Students also helped develop and construct the Burrows R-6, Rider R-6, Crosby C6R3, and Crosby CR-4 racing aircraft.

AIRPod. The AIRPod is a compressed-air vehicle in development by Motor Development International. The AIRPod is planned to be produced in three different configurations that will vary the number of seats and amount of cargo storage while keeping the same basic chassis. It is designed as a zero-emission urban vehicle. Prototypes have been tested by Air France-KLM for use as emission-free vehicles in airports.

MDI has been promising production of the AirPod each year since 2000. As of October 2018, not a single production car has been created. Zero Pollution Motors promised production by mid-2019.

Technical characteristics 
(Range, mileage, and speed are claimed by MDI with no independent verification)

Production model 
In September 2013, it was claimed that the vehicle would be on sale from summer 2014 with a base model with 100 km range starting at 7000 Euros, and one with an improved engine, that uses some fuel in addition to the compressed air, giving 250 km range for 8000 Euros. The vehicles will be manufactured in Bolotana, Sardinia, Italy.
In August 2014, MDI posted photos of a partially completed demonstration assembly line in their Carros R&D facility, and illustrations and descriptions of the proposed finished assembly line.  In March 2016, they posted images showing construction of the forthcoming factory in Sardinia as "underway".

US production and sales  
The vehicles were promoted on the US reality television show Shark Tank in May 2015 by Zero Pollution Motors, where Robert Herjavec offered $5 million for a 50% share in the business which proposed to sell the AirPod for $10,000.  Zero Pollution Motors owns the right to build a production plant and has proposed setting up a plant in Hawaii. The investment deal fell through because the company did not hold the rights across North America.  The company's website said production in Europe was to be scheduled for the first quarter of 2018 and would accept order reservations.

Intelligent Resilient Framework. Intelligent Resilient Framework (IRF) is a proprietary software virtualization technology originally developed by Huawei 3Com. It can connect and configure multiple network devices through physical ports and then virtualize the devices. This enables the unified management and maintenance of multiple devices. This technology is similar to the Cisco Virtual PortChannel (vpC).

History
This technology was originally developed by 3Com and released in 2003 as XRN (eXpandable Resilient Networking).  When HP Inc. purchased 3Com in April 2010, the technology was renamed to IRF.

Overview
An IRF virtual device appears as a node on the network, which can be connected to in order to manage all members of the virtual device. The IRF is designed to combine the cost-effective benefits of box-type devices with the reliability of chassis-based devices. IRF proponents claim that an IRF-based network increases network resilience, performance, and availability, while also reducing the operating complexity. In simulated tests, IRF was found to be resilient to severe induced failures.

Devices which support IRF
Currently, this technology is specific to HP Inc. products and solutions.
