Communiqué De Presse
Paris, 6th June 2017 PRESS RELEASE First Flight of Russian Aircraft MC-21 Nexeya supplies avionics integration and simulation tools Russia United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) successfully completed the maiden flight of their new MC-21- 300 commercial aircraft at Irkutsk Aviation Plant airfield. Being a modern aircraft, the MC-21 operates with numerous state of the art computer-controlled systems supporting safety-critical flight functions. While this may have been the first time its complex avionics systems have been tested in flight, they have been successfully integrated and tested on the ground thanks to TechSAT’s Avionics Development System ADS2 platform solution. This ADS2 platform enabled UAC Integration Center to test and validate the full MC-21 avionic suits prior to the first flight. Holistic tests including complex operational scenarios were performed during every phases of the design and development of the program ensuring maximum safety and superior performance of the aircraft. TechSAT (a Nexeya company) is proud to be part of the MC-21 program. «TechSAT solutions were designed and built on schedule; all test rigs were thus completed on time», says Victor SINITSYN, head of section at the UAC Integration Center. «ADS2 is a powerful, flexible, and stable product, to perform all required tests. ADS2 keeps its promises. ADS2 functionality is 100% reliable. TechSAT teams are open and skilled to meet customer needs». Marco Häde, TechSAT director of operations : «The key feature of TechSAT’s solutions for MC-21 simulation systems is the integration of all LRUs involved and the cockpit into a real hardware-in-the-loop setup. -
An Analysis of Spatio-Temporal Urbanization Patterns in Northwest China
land Article An Analysis of Spatio-Temporal Urbanization Patterns in Northwest China Haifen Lei 1,2, Jennifer Koch 2 and Hui Shi 1,* 1 School of Environmental and Municipal Engineering, Xi’an University of Architecture and Technology, Xi’an 710055, China; [email protected] 2 Department of Geography and Environmental Sustainability, The University of Oklahoma, Norman, OK 73019, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 6 September 2020; Accepted: 19 October 2020; Published: 27 October 2020 Abstract: Chinese metropolitan areas have been experiencing urbanization over the past decades, impacting biodiversity, carbon emissions, urban heat islands, and food security. Yet, systematic research on spatio-temporal urbanization patterns and drivers along the urban–rural gradient is rarely reported for northwest China. Here, we use land-use data from 1980 to 2015 to explore land-use change, urbanization intensity, and drivers in northwest China. Our results display direct and indirect effects of urban expansion on farmland loss, but also spatio-temporal heterogeneity in the urbanization patterns. While the earlier years were dominated by infill and land conversion close to city centers, the later years displayed sprawling urbanization following the constraints of terrain and administrative boundaries at the cost of farmland. Our regression analysis of spatial variables found a strong relationship with urban planning factors. The spatial analysis of urbanization patterns revealed indirect land-use change on former farmland. Furthermore, we found that regional geography and historic sites considerably influenced land conversion. Overall, our findings indicate the need for sustainable planning strategies that synthesize approaches to farmland and historic site protection and consideration of regionally specific landscape characteristics. -

U.S. Investors Are Funding Malign PRC Companies on Major Indices
U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE Office of the Spokesperson For Immediate Release FACT SHEET December 8, 2020 U.S. Investors Are Funding Malign PRC Companies on Major Indices “Under Xi Jinping, the CCP has prioritized something called ‘military-civil fusion.’ … Chinese companies and researchers must… under penalty of law – share technology with the Chinese military. The goal is to ensure that the People’s Liberation Army has military dominance. And the PLA’s core mission is to sustain the Chinese Communist Party’s grip on power.” – Secretary of State Michael R. Pompeo, January 13, 2020 The Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) threat to American national security extends into our financial markets and impacts American investors. Many major stock and bond indices developed by index providers like MSCI and FTSE include malign People’s Republic of China (PRC) companies that are listed on the Department of Commerce’s Entity List and/or the Department of Defense’s List of “Communist Chinese military companies” (CCMCs). The money flowing into these index funds – often passively, from U.S. retail investors – supports Chinese companies involved in both civilian and military production. Some of these companies produce technologies for the surveillance of civilians and repression of human rights, as is the case with Uyghurs and other Muslim minority groups in Xinjiang, China, as well as in other repressive regimes, such as Iran and Venezuela. As of December 2020, at least 24 of the 35 parent-level CCMCs had affiliates’ securities included on a major securities index. This includes at least 71 distinct affiliate-level securities issuers.
