Electric Trains and Japanese Technology
1872 marked the start of commercial railway operations in Japan, nearly half a century after railways had started in the UK. However, electric railways did not appear until 1890 at an exhibition held in Ueno, 10 years after the start in Europe but only 2 years after Frank J. Sprague (1857–1934) started running electric streetcars in Richmond, USA, in 1888, which triggered the rapid spread of el...
متن کاملPlasma membrane permeabilization by trains of ultrashort electric pulses.
Ultrashort electric pulses (USEP) cause long-lasting increase of cell membrane electrical conductance, and that a single USEP increased cell membrane electrical conductance proportionally to the absorbed dose (AD) with a threshold of about 10 mJ/g. The present study extends quantification of the membrane permeabilization effect to multiple USEP and employed a more accurate protocol that identif...
متن کاملSome Sustainability Aspects of Energy Conversion in Urban Electric Trains
The paper illustrates some aspects of energy conversion processes during underground electric train operation. Energy conversion processes are explained using exergy, in order to support transport system sustainability. Loss of exergy reflects a loss of potential of energy to do work. Following the notion that life in Nature demonstrates sustainable energy conversion, we approach the sustainabi...
متن کاملElectric charge quantization without anomalies?
In gauge theories like the standard model, the electric charges of the fermions can be heavily constrained from the classical structure of the theory and from the cancellation of anomalies. We argue that the anomaly conditions are not quite as well motivated as the classical constraints, since it is possible that new fermions could exist which cancel potential anomalies. For this reason we exam...
متن کامل[Pioneers and pit crews].
T he word pioneer conjures many images, especially that of the first to discover something. It implies aloneness, if not loneliness. In research—especially family medicine research—nothing could be further from the truth. Although all of the College of Family Physicians of Canada’s Top 20 Pioneers in Family Medicine Research1 were among the first to discover and achieve things in their areas, n...
