  • EFDA-JET Bulletin
    EFDA-JET Bulletin JET Recent Results and Planning March 2006 On 23rd January 2006, the EFDA Associate Leader for JET Dr Jérôme Paméla presented the JET 2005 report and future programme in a seminar at the JET site. In his talk, Dr Paméla outlined the most recent news regarding fusion, the 2005 JET main events and scientific highlights, the 2006 JET programme, and planning beyond 2006. "2005 was a key year for fusion with the decision on siting ITER in Cadarache taken by the parties on 28 June 2005. India joined in November and ITER negotiations were completed in December 2005. The negotiation with Japan led to other projects being jointly prepared between the European Union and Japan, the so-called ‘Broader Approach’, a very good opportunity for faster development of fusion," stressed Dr Paméla. Some of the scientific results obtained at JET in 2005, which were outlined in the talk, are presented in this Bulletin. The current European fusion research strategy, reflected in the longer-term planning for JET, was also described in detail. In the upcoming campaigns significant enhancement of the JET facility, towards higher power with the ITER-like plasma shape will allow JET to perform important experiments in preparation of ITER. At the end of this year, an ITER-like ICRH Antenna is to be installed which will open new scope for reactor-relevant research at JET. These experiments shall be followed by the installation of an ITER-like first wall scheduled for 2008 (see the June 2005 JET Bulletin). JET in the Physics World The March issue of the Institue of Physics magazine, Physics World, carries an 8 page special feature on JET.

The relationship can be quite complex. It is determined by numerous factors which need to be taken into account in planning for growth. 1.2 The purpose of this Topic Paper is to set out the evidence in terms of the settlements in North Somerset in order to identify their current function and functional relationships with other settlements. The evidence will form the basis on which a hierarchy of settlements will be established. In particular the identification of Development Policy B and C settlements set out in the draft RSS. The Paper will also consider how policies have influenced the form and function of settlements and inform any discussion of whether the current list of inset and washed over Green Belt settlements is still appropriate and whether settlement boundaries are still the appropriate planning tool for many green belt and rural settlements.

  • IL Combo Ndx V2
    file IL COMBO v2 for PDF.doc updated 13-12-2006 THE INDUSTRIAL LOCOMOTIVE The Quarterly Journal of THE INDUSTRIAL LOCOMOTIVE SOCIETY COMBINED INDEX of Volumes 1 to 7 1976 – 1996 IL No.1 to No.79 PROVISIONAL EDITION www.industrial-loco.org.uk IL COMBO v2 for PDF.doc updated 13-12-2006 INTRODUCTION and ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This “Combo Index” has been assembled by combining the contents of the separate indexes originally created, for each individual volume, over a period of almost 30 years by a number of different people each using different approaches and methods. The first three volume indexes were produced on typewriters, though subsequent issues were produced by computers, and happily digital files had been preserved for these apart from one section of one index. It has therefore been necessary to create digital versions of 3 original indexes using “Optical Character Recognition” (OCR), which has not proved easy due to the relatively poor print, and extremely small text (font) size, of some of the indexes in particular. Thus the OCR results have required extensive proof-reading. Very fortunately, a team of volunteers to assist in the project was recruited from the membership of the Society, and grateful thanks are undoubtedly due to the major players in this exercise – Paul Burkhalter, John Hill, John Hutchings, Frank Jux, John Maddox and Robin Simmonds – with a special thankyou to Russell Wear, current Editor of "IL" and Chairman of the Society, who has both helped and given encouragement to the project in a myraid of different ways. None of this would have been possible but for the efforts of those who compiled the original individual indexes – Frank Jux, Ian Lloyd, (the late) James Lowe, John Scotford, and John Wood – and to the volume index print preparers such as Roger Hateley, who set a new level of presentation which is standing the test of time.

  • Npower Enthuse Day Comes to Didcot
    npower Enthuse day comes to Didcot Submitted by: pr-sending-enterprises Monday, 27 February 2012 npower recently visited students from St Birinus School, Didcot, sparking their interest in engineering by taking part in a npower Enthuse day. Four volunteers from Didcot power stations joined 230, Year 9 students at the Enthuse day. The programme is designed to inspire and engage students aged 12-14 years old in science, technology, engineering and mathematics through a range of interactive activities which help them think about the impact science and engineering has on their daily lives. The students were encouraged to think of ways to improve an existing electricity (http://www.npower.com/Home/Electricity-and-gas/Products/index.htm) generation idea and product, or to design a completely new concept. They also took part in a series of hands-on activities, helping them to develop their engineering and science related skills and discussed the problem of how the country can meet and reduce the UK’s future demand for energy. Enthuse, which is part of the npower's Brighter Futures Programme, aims to inspire young people from their first day at school to their first day at work. This is achieved by helping them to develop their skills and knowledge to make their own choices and empowering them to achieve their vision of a 'brighter future' for themselves and for the environment. Jim Haggan, Didcot A Power Station Manager, said: "I think Enthuse days are very important. It's our opportunity to give young people an insight into the energy (http://www.npower.com/Home/index.htm) industry and highlight opportunities available.
