  • Technical Supplements
    Technical Supplements S1 The IG JAS Investment In this Technical Supplement the JAS 39 Gripen product concept is outlined, the procurement process documented, the Industry Group IG JAS presented and the critical role of the competent public procurement agency, the FMV, highlighted. S1.1 The Procurement of the JAS 39 Gripen Aircraft with Swing-Role Capabilities The JAS 39 Gripen multirole combat aircraft (J stands for fighter, A for Attack and S for Surveillance/reconnaissance) is a fourth generation aircraft that entered operational service in 1997. It replaced the Viggen, the last of which was taken out of service in 2006. JAS 39 Gripen is a combat aircraft with swing-role capabilities that can change mission in flight. This swing-role capability was unique when Gripen was launched but has later been introduced on the French Rafale and the Eurofighter. Other competing multirole aircraft first have to land to reconfigure its information, guidance, and weapons systems for a new role. Gripen was the first “unstable” aircraft in the world which meant that in order for the aircraft to be stable at all speeds and in all maneuvers many more navigation surfaces are needed than the pilot can possibly control himself to minimize air friction at each moment. He needs incredibly sophisticated computer systems support to maneuver the aircraft effectively and safely. Competing fourth generation combat aircraft are F-35/JSF (the USA, not yet (2009) delivered to market), the Eurofighter Typhoon (the UK, etc.) and Rafale (Dassault, France). JAS 39 Gripen also competes with upgraded versions of the third generation aircraft of Lockheed Martin F-16 (the USA, first delivered in 1978), Boeing F/A18 Hornet (the USA, first delivered in 1983), Dassault Mirage 2000 (France, first delivered in 1983), and Mig-29 (the former Soviet Union, first delivered in 1977).

Military applications emerged fairly early in the infancy of aviation, in the form of first trials to establish the superiority of the third dimension over the battlefield. Well- known examples include the balloon reconnaissance efforts made in France even before the birth of the aircraft, and it was not long before the first generation of flimsy, underpowered aircraft were being tested in a military environment. The Italians used aircraft for reconnaissance missions at Tripoli in 1910-1912, and the Americans made their first attempts at taking air power to sea as early as 1910-1911.

  • Die Entstehung Der Verkehrsfliegerei Und Die Junkers F 13
    Die Entstehung der Verkehrsfliegerei und die Junkers F 13 Das Ende des 1. Weltkrieges bringt gleichzeitig den Beginn einer neuen Art der Fliegerei, der zivilen Luftfahrt mit der Verkehrsfliegerei, in Europa und in den USA und bald überall. Erstmalig werden anfangs noch mit alten Militärflugzeugen Post und Fracht befördert und wie sie hier unten ein Modell des Bombers der deutschen Firma AEG sehen, werden diese Bomber zu Passagierflugzeugen umgebaut, nicht nur in Deutschland, sondern ähnlich bei allen am Krieg beteiligten Mächten. Natürlich bestehen sie nach wie vor aus Stoff und Holz, die AEG sogar schon aus geschweißtem Stahlrohr im Rumpf und Alu-Rippen mit Stoffbespannung für die Flächen. Die Flugsicherheit ist nicht besonders hoch., Erst 1919 beginnt, man kann es ruhig bezeichnen als eine Revolution im Flugzeugbau, eine vollkommen neue Ära: Hugo Junkers aus Dessau bringt nicht nur das erste reine, für diese Zwecke konstruierte Passagierflugzeug auf den Markt, er baut es auch als das erste Ganzmetall-Verkehrsflugzeug aus dem noch jungen Leichtmetall Aluminium. Hier steht als Nachbau seine berühmte F 13. Revolution im Flugzeugbau deshalb, weil Junkers nicht nur von Holz und Stoff abgeht sondern auch eine neue Technologie im Flugzeugbau einführt: Das 1:1 Modell einer Junkers F 13 bei uns im Museum (darüber ein Original- Nachbau einer Klemm Kl 25). Keine Spanntürme, keine Drahtverspannungen, dafür aber ein neuer, trapez- förmiger profilierter Metallflügel. Erstmalig werden Rumpf- und Tragflächen, durch starke Längs- und Querträger, wie ein Käfig gebaut, auf den man dann die dünne Aluminiumaußenhaut aufnietet. Und dieser Verbund übernimmt alle Kräfte, die auf das Flugzeug wirken. Gleichzeitig bekommt man aber freie Räume sowohl im Rumpf für die Unterbringung der Fluggäste, Wie auch in der Tragfläche.

  • Sixth Workshop on Baltic Sea Ice Climate August 25–28, 2008 Lammi Biological Station, Finland
    UNIVERSITY OF HELSINKI DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICS REPORT SERIES IN GEOPHYSICS No 61 Proceedings of The Sixth Workshop on Baltic Sea Ice Climate August 25–28, 2008 Lammi Biological Station, Finland HELSINKI 2009 UNIVERSITY OF HELSINKI DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICS REPORT SERIES IN GEOPHYSICS No 61 Cover: Participants of the workshop in front of the main building of Lammi biological station (Eija Riihiranta). Proceedings of The Sixth Workshop on Baltic Sea Ice Climate August 25–28, 2008 Lammi Biological Station, Finland HELSINKI 2009 2 Preface The importance of sea ice in the Baltic Sea has been addressed in the Baltic Sea Ice Workshops. The ice has been identified as a key element in the water and energy cycles and ecological state of the Baltic Sea. The variability in sea ice conditions is high and due to the short thermal memory of the Baltic Sea closely connected to the actual weather conditions. The spatial and temporal long-term variability of the ice cover has been discussed in the Baltic Sea Ice Workshops. One motivation of the workshop series, which started in 1993, was that sea ice is not properly treated in Baltic Sea research in general although the ice season has a major role in the annual cycle of the Baltic Sea. This still holds true, which is a severe bias since in environmental problems, such as oil spill accidents in winter and long term transport of pollutants, the ice conditions play a critically important role. Also in regional climate changes the Baltic Sea ice cover is a sensitive key factor. In the Baltic Sea Ice Climate Workshops these topics have been extensively discussed, in addition to basic Baltic Sea ice science questions.
