草场变成荒野就在一念之间

我发现自己职业生涯的大部分时间都在研究草场,包括坦桑尼亚角马迁徙、洪流搏动的塞伦盖蒂大草原,西藏高原和蒙古大草原。草场一直萦绕脑海或记忆的边缘。稀树草原(炎热、季节性干旱气候条件下成长的植被类型)和温带草原(温带气候下的地带性植被类型之一)大约占地球陆地表面的40%。人类起源于广袤的非洲大草原,许多狩猎采集社会直到近代都与这种环境息息相关。各种形态的人类社会约从一万三千年前开始通过培育各种作物和驯养野生有蹄动物而逐步演化。     

双通线加热的热力学及实验分析(英文)

The present investigation deals with process analysis of oxy-acetylene flame assisted double pass line heating for varying plate thickness. oxy-acetylene flame as the heat source for multi pass line heating to achieve 3-D bending of plates with varying thicknesses was studied. The oxy-acetylene flame was modeled as the moving heat source in the FEM analysis. The transient thermal histories were predicted taking into account the temperature dependent thermo-mechanical properties. A comparative study between single pass and double pass line heating residual deformation was also carried out. The temperature distribution and residual deformations predicted by the numerical model developed in the present work compared fairly well with those of the experimental ones.     

非道路高功率发动机的电辅助增压技术

电辅助涡轮增压技术是一种用于优化发动机瞬态特性的技术。德国MTU公司在涡轮增压器试验台和其自产发动机上，以交叉充电装置的形式对该技术进行了试验。以此证明该技术的有效性及其对ZR系列涡轮增压器的设计原理和理念的兼容性。     

混合废气再循环在直接喷射汽油机上的应用

混合废气再循环系统是指将高压-废气再循环与低压-废气再循环组合在一起.正如BorgWarner公司所指出的那样,这种众所周知的柴油机技术也能应用于汽油机,以降低整个特性曲线范围内的燃油耗和废气排放.     

PORT OF SEATTLE STATEMENT REGARDING 21ST CENTURY

It is impossible to overstate the importance of the World Wide Web to any business, including ports, and there will come a day in the not-too-distant future when all internal and external processes involving the Port of Seattle will be Web-based. We see nothing but growth in the continued application of the Web to our everyday business. The Port has launched a five-year eBusiness strategy to help maintain our position as an innovative leader among ports. There are virtually no     

使用合成闸瓦降低噪声

在德国经济技术部的支持下实施的LaGiv项目（通过使用新发明的合成闸瓦降低货运列车的噪声水平）框架内，德国铁路公司（DB）中的投资人和一些其他德国公司一起研制、试验和准备鉴定各种材料制成的闸瓦。正如预期的那样，此类闸瓦的使用将降低货运列车运行时的噪声水平。     

在着火运转的柴油机上测量摩擦功率——活塞裙部几何形状的影响

Mahle公司在着火运转的柴油机上进行大量的摩擦试验。介绍并定量揭示影响轿车柴油机活塞裙部摩擦的各种措施。活塞形状对摩擦的影响是由不同的活塞裙部廓线显现出来的，例如降低活塞裙部的刚度能证实活塞结构的适合程度对摩擦性能的影响。此外，还介绍缩小活塞裙部工作表面积对发动机运行特性曲线场摩擦性能的影响。
