Starting on page 32, you’ll find some examples of failed ideas. They also show that in many cases it wasn’t the idea itself that was flawed, but that other factors pre- vented its breakthrough. As mentioned earlier, in- novation is a process involving many steps and challenges. Innovation is of vital importance to a technolo- gy group with global operations like Schaeffler. That’s why we conduct research and develop- ment at more than 20 locations worldwide. In our SHARE projects, we work together with renowned universities in various areas and on several conti- nents. A promising focus field of our R&D activities is hydrogen, which plays an important part on our path toward a carbon-neutral society. More on this starting on page 56.

Really? No, says OceanTherm, a Norwegian start- up that has launched a novelty which has actually been around for a while. Underwater bubbles that have been used for 50 years to keep fjords ice-free are supposed to stop future tropical cyclones. The idea is that, unlike in the cool Norwegian Sea, the bubbles in hurricane regions are supposed to cause cold instead of warm water to rise. It’s a technology from the category of climate engineer- ing, in other words, human interventions with weather phenomena. Hurricanes (aka cyclones or typhoons) are formed above ocean surfaces with water temperatures above 26.5 °C (79.7 °F). Even if this limit should not be sustainable, every degree gained in the process will miti- gate the momentum of the storm by as much as 20 km/h (12.4 mph). To create an eff ective curtain of bubbles, an extensive pipeline system conveying compressed air must be created at a depth of more than 100 meters, either per- manently installed or as a mobile solution using some 20 ships as a fl oating base. The startup is still in the pro- cess of looking for research and, above all, funding part- ners. The costs of the mobile solution are estimated to amount to some 270 million dollars per year. However, this investment would likely pay off if this type of climate engineering proved viable, because just in the United States, the expected damage caused by hurricane winds amounts to around 54 billion dollars per year, according to estimates by the U.S. Congressional Budget Offi ce. You learn to know a pilot in a storm Lucius Annaeus Seneca, Roman philosopher 6 305 km/h (175 mph) was the speed at which hurricane Camille swept across the Gulf of Mexico in 1969. A record! Only hurricane Allen reached the same speed off the coast of Texas in 1980. 45 kilometers (28 miles) is the average diameter of the eye of a hurricane around which the storm rages. The entire vortex system is larger with potential diameters of more than 1,600 kilometers (1,000 miles). 3 names, one meaning: the storms referred to as hurricanes in North and Central America are called cyclones in the Indian Ocean and the South Pacifi c region, and typhoons in South East Asia. 81 billion $ was the damage caused by hurricane Katrina that struck the southern United States in 2005 – making it the costliest tropical cyclone in history to date. 28 days has been the longest duration of a hurricane on record. The storm swept across the Atlantic for nearly one month. 7 360° Innovation Facts, figures, oddities – a 360-degree view of the focus topic of this issue of “tomorrow.” African Sunrise The World Economic Forum has identifiedfive startup hot spots aside from Silicon Valley as particularly fertile breeding grounds of innovation. Ranked in fourth place behind Singapore, Israel and South Korea is Kenya, a surprise candidate, but for good reason: Startups there can draw on a large pool of young talent from numerous universities.

  • FY 15 ANNUAL REPORT August 1, 2014- July 31, 2015
    FY 15 ANNUAL REPORT August 1, 2014- July 31, 2015 1 THE PHILLIPS COLLECTION FY15 Annual Report THE PHILLIPS [IS] A MULTIDIMENSIONAL INSTITUTION THAT CRAVES COLOR, CONNECTEDNESS, A PIONEERING SPIRIT, AND PERSONAL EXPERIENCES 2 THE PHILLIPS COLLECTION FY15 Annual Report FROM THE CHAIRMAN AND DIRECTOR This is an incredibly exciting time to be involved with The Phillips Collection. Duncan Phillips had a deep understanding of the “joy-giving, life-enhancing influence” of art, and this connection between art and well-being has always been a driving force. Over the past year, we have continued to push boundaries and forge new paths with that sentiment in mind, from our art acquisitions to our engaging educational programming. Our colorful new visual identity—launched in fall 2014—grew out of the idea of the Phillips as a multidimensional institution, a museum that craves color, connectedness, a pioneering spirit, and personal experiences. Our programming continues to deepen personal conversations with works of art. Art and Wellness: Creative Aging, our collaboration with Iona Senior Services has continued to help participants engage personal memories through conversations and the creating of art. Similarly, our award-winning Contemplation Audio Tour encourages visitors to harness the restorative power of art by deepening their relationship with the art on view. With Duncan Phillips’s philosophies leading the way, we have significantly expanded the collection. The promised gift of 18 American sculptors’ drawings from Trustee Linda Lichtenberg Kaplan, along with the gift of 46 major works by contemporary German and Danish artists from Michael Werner, add significantly to new possibilities that further Phillips’s vision of vital “creative conversations” in our intimate galleries.

  • Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan
    Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan A Comprehensive Listing of the Vessels Built from Schooners to Steamers from 1810 to the Present Written and Compiled by: Matthew J. Weisman and Paula Shorf National Museum of the Great Lakes 1701 Front Street, Toledo, Ohio 43605 Welcome, The Great Lakes are not only the most important natural resource in the world, they represent thousands of years of history. The lakes have dramatically impacted the social, economic and political history of the North American continent. The National Museum of the Great Lakes tells the incredible story of our Great Lakes through over 300 genuine artifacts, a number of powerful audiovisual displays and 40 hands-on interactive exhibits including the Col. James M. Schoonmaker Museum Ship. The tales told here span hundreds of years, from the fur traders in the 1600s to the Underground Railroad operators in the 1800s, the rum runners in the 1900s, to the sailors on the thousand-footers sailing today. The theme of the Great Lakes as a Powerful Force runs through all of these stories and will create a lifelong interest in all who visit from 5 – 95 years old. Toledo and the surrounding area are full of early American History and great places to visit. The Battle of Fallen Timbers, the War of 1812, Fort Meigs and the early shipbuilding cities of Perrysburg and Maumee promise to please those who have an interest in local history. A visit to the world-class Toledo Art Museum, the fine dining along the river, with brew pubs and the world famous Tony Packo’s restaurant, will make for a great visit.

About fifteen of these become tropical depressions, areas of low pressure with closed wind patterns. Of the fifteen, ten become tropical storms, and six become hurricanes. Every five years, one of the hurricanes will become reach category five status, normally in the western Atlantic or western Caribbean. About every fifty years, one of these extremely intense hurricanes will strike the United States, with disastrous consequences. Texas has seen its share of hurricane activity over the many years it has been inhabited. Nearly five hundred years ago, unlucky Spanish explorers learned firsthand what storms along the coast of the Lone Star State were capable of. Despite these setbacks, Spaniards set down roots across Mexico and Texas and started colonies. Galleons filled with gold and other treasures sank to the bottom of the Gulf, off such locations as Padre and Galveston Islands.
