Mit einem Demonstrator können die Messebesucher das Antriebsystem des NGT LINK virtuell steuern.
Auf der weltweit größten Fachmesse für Bahn- und Verkehrstechnik in Berlin geben die Forscher des Deutschen Zentrums für Luft- und Raumfahrt (DLR) einen Einblick in aktuelle Forschungsprojekte, um den Schienenverkehr schneller, effizienter, sicherer und komfortabler zu machen.

On Oct. 14-16, 2013, Argonne National Laboratory and the University of Chicago organized the 2013 edition of the “Materials Modeling and Simulations for Nuclear Fuels” (MMSNF) workshop series in downtown Chicago.
An optional river and harbor cruise after the workshop afforded MMSNF participants with unprecedented views of Chicago's famous skyline and historic landmarks.

Georgetown University School of Foreign Service in Qatar held a conflict resolution and negotiation simulation titled “Afghanistan in 2015: Chaos in Kabul.” The simulation, organized in conjunction with Georgetown’s Institute for the Study of Diplomacy (ISD) in Washington, D.C., included 25 student participants from the Georgetown Qatar and D.C. campuses, the Academic Bridge Program, as well as local high school students. Canadian Head of Mission to Qatar, Gary Luton, played the role of UN Secretary General in the exercise.
“It’s always useful for practitioners to engage with students on important issues, and to hear their opinions on and reactions to some of the international community’s most vital concerns,” said Luton.
The exercise, a blend of real-world events and fictional elements that help facilitate learning objectives, was designed to help students think about and experience domestic and international efforts towards reconstruction and development after international military forces have pulled out of a country, the power struggle within Afghanistan in particular, and how the UN, foreign governments, the Afghan government, tribal leaders and the Taliban can interact constructively.
Students received a set of “confidential” instructions outlining each team’s initial position on developing a road map for Afghan reconstruction and development several days before the simulation began. During the simulation, students engaged in a series of bilateral and multilateral meetings which culminated in a final session presided by the UN Secretary General, played by the Canadian Head of Mission to Qatar, Gary Luton.
“The value of simulations for students studying international affairs, is that they get to immerse themselves in very difficult topics and learn about the subject matter. They then get to play the role of the people in the real world who are trying to do something about that crisis,” said Jim Seevers, the ISD’s Director of Studies and Training who created the exercise in conjunction with ISD Associate Lt. Colonel Mike Shortsleeve. “The students love the process of actually being the negotiator. When you’re being asked, not just to understand a subject, but to negotiate with a party that you know has a different view, you begin to see issues from different parties’ perspectives,” added Seevers.
During the exercise, students formed several teams representing the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, the Taliban, the Islamic Republic of Iran, the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, the United States, the People’s Republic of China, and the U.N. Assistance Mission in Afghanistan. A “control room” of faculty and policy practitioners played the role of the Afghan Tribal Leaders and ISAF/NATO.
Ysa Chandna, a Georgetown University student, commented, “Crisis Simulation is perhaps the best thing at Georgetown University; this is my third time taking part in it and I’m very glad I did because I learned a lot from it.”.

Reaction-diffusion implemented as realtime simulation running on OpenGL shader. Diffusion is implemented as a discrete sampling for faster execution instead of the more proper Gaussian blur.
Resulting execution is very fast and smooth, and modifying the sampling point set yields some interesting textures.
Tonight was the British Red Cross trainers forum, the purpose of the forum is that the trainers from around the region gather together and share tips, tricks and also some of the ideas that haven't worked very well in their centres so that we can all learn from each other.
A couple of the guys there this evening took the opportunity to show us just how quick it can be to create a fake wound that you can use to help train first aiders how to deal with casualties and injuries in a more realistic scenario.
This is a fake wound that the trainer created using some wax and a little bottle of fake blood on a volunteer, I was really impressed as the whole thing from start to finish including the narrative was less than 5 minutes and the wound is sufficiently real looking to help prepare first aiders for the sorts of things they may witness.
There's a training session coming up soon where these sorts of wounds are taught and I'm really tempted to put my name down as I think it could be a useful skill to learn for my training sessions.

This is how I see Machine To Keep A Feather In The Air working (if it works at all). The simulation is not that accurate of course, and there is a lot more code that needs to go into it still, the outer fans should do more to keep the balloon in the middle for instance.
The idea is that the "balloon" here will later be replaced by a vision system that tracks the object in real life and passes the information along to the simulation, some of the same rules should apply with tuning that system, such as for instance "don't blow on the object if it is moving upwards" and "ignore the object unless it is below a certain height".
Also, I'll be wanting to use as few (pan/tilt servo pairs + fan) as possible, 5 seems like a good number.
Nothing like a photo to summarise your recent activities. I had a great time in Chile working with the Army on Simulation and Training Systems - they were keen, technically proficient and enthusiastic to work with.
They were also excellent hosts!
I hope I get the chance to work with them again.

These are reference images I'm using to test my new Velvia 100 RVP Film Simulation presets.
It's pretty well nailed down. With DMAX increases to Greens and Reds, and careful attention to how Velvia F used to make Reds orange and Yellows green, I made the adjustsments to reflect with known parameters of Velvia 100 RVP.
Like RVP, lighting conditions, exposures and subjects work differently with this simulation, but I used this reference set of 16 images to really stress test the preset.
In some cases, only two of the sliders need to be adjusted to suit the shooting conditions which are Exposure and White settings.
White balance needs to be adjusted manually. RVP tends to have a coolish tendency to it's images (which kind of makes sense because projector lights tended to be warmer.
White balancing with this preset requires you find your optimal results and then pull back towards cool just a little bit.

This project is economically motivated by the goal of redesigning control surfaces to reduce their size, thus reducing jet fuel usage at a cost-savings of approximately 0.3 billion dollars per year. With this INCITE award, researchers propose to develop adaptive detached eddysimulations of synthetic jet active flow control on a multi-component realistic high lift wingconfiguration. The simulations will provide fundamental insight into the interaction betweensynthetic jets and the main flow on a realistic geometry in aeronautics.
This image depicts the isosurface of adaptivity error indicator viewed from above and below the high lift wing. Mesh will be adapted where the error is above this isovalue (e.g., mesh cells inside this isosurface). Note that most of these regions are LES zones of the DDES model and thus adaptation efficiently improves the mesh resolution in these critical areas.

detail, chaos in a monostable multivibrator when it is retriggered too quickly for the timing capacitor to regain all its charge. This leads to a non-linear iteration process. The experiments fully confirm the mathematics of the iteration.
The erratic behaviour of early oscilloscope trigger and synchronisation circuits was a consequence of this process.
