TL;DR: In this article, an anti-aircraft system consisting of a ranging unit, a gun-fixed aiming unit and a calculating unit is described, where the ranging unit comprises means for optical aiming at the target and devices for determination of the range, the angular rate in elevation and azimuth, and elevation.
Abstract: A sight for an anti-aircraft gun, which is manually aimed, comprises a ranging unit, a gun-fixed aiming unit and a calculating unit, preferably a computer. The ranging unit comprises means for optical aiming at the target, and devices for determination of the range, the angular rate in elevation and azimuth, and elevation. The devices emit measured value signals to the means for optical aiming at the target, which means is settable in elevation and azimuth in relationship to the firing direction of the anti-aircraft gun. The calculating unit controls, guided by said received signals and information given about the velocity of the fired projectile and the prevailing wind vector, the second optical means in such a way, that, when the operator aims through same at the target, by setting the barrel in elevation and azimuth, the offset- and lead angles of the barrel are such, that a fired projectile hits the target. The invention is characterized in that the ranging unit (1) is separate, comprising a support (9), manually pivotable in elevation and azimuth, independent of the firing direction of the barrel.

TL;DR: In this article, an arrangement for the supply of fuel to internal combustion engines with different mixing ratios of methanol and petrol, and continuous transition during operation between different mixtures thereof, is described.
Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement for the supply of fuel to internal combustion engines with different mixing ratios of methanol and petrol, and continuous transition during operation between different mixtures thereof. The arrangement comprises a main tank (2) and a slave tank (4), which slave tank must be isolated from the main tank so that its mixing ratio is not varied by filling, enabling engine (1) to be started on the same fuel as that on which it was stopped. Engine (1) is supplied with fuel by a fuel pump (7) arranged in the slave tank (4), which fuel pump also drives an ejector (6) arranged in main tank (2), so that fuel is entrained from main tank (2) to slave tank (4). Only one fuel pump (7) is therefore required. Because ejector (6), in controlled dependence of the engine temperature, supplies the fuel to slave tank (4) through a rising pipe (20) which discharges above the highest fuel level in slave tank (4) and main tank (2) respectively, a safely isolated slave tank (4) is obtained during the warming up phase, followed by rapid mixing of the fuel in slave tank (4) with the fuel present in main tank (2).

TL;DR: The approach involves the analysis of specific aspects of the management of a Brazilian university and the proposition of a new framework that may be useful mainly for universities focused on improving their strategic planning while having excellence in operational execution.
Abstract: This paper presents an application in Information Fusion related to Analytics and fusion of Big Data. The approach involves the analysis of specific aspects of the management of a Brazilian university and the proposition of a new framework that may be useful mainly for universities focused on improving their strategic planning while having excellence in operational execution. The framework intends to be used for the development of new decision support systems that integrate "past data" with "real time data". The research methodology emphasizes induction with the collection of qualitative data in order to move from observed facts to theory. The main result is the framework itself while future work may involve the development and the validation of the new system.

TL;DR: The purpose of this chapter is to describe important aspects of how to manage human factors in the development of fighter aircraft, by presenting prominent features of the domain, corresponding design concepts to cope with what is special, and guidance in the approach to managing human factors.
Abstract: The purpose of this chapter is to describe important aspects of how to manage human factors in the development of fighter aircraft, by presenting prominent features of the domain, corresponding design concepts to cope with what is special, and guidance in the approach to managing human factors in the development of fighter aircraft. The chapter includes a description of the domain of fighter aircraft development, followed by a section on how to design for what is special about a fighter pilot, a fighter aircraft, and the flight environment. Examples of design concepts from the domain, such as HOTAS and Basic-T are discussed in light of domain specific demands. Later, human factor considerations, such as evaluation of human factors and usable systems, are discussed together with how to manage human factors in development.

TL;DR: In this article, a system and method for air-conditioning of vehicles to prevent window inside fogging is described, where the vehicle is parked with the engine shut off and the fresh air intake is closed.
Abstract: System and method for air-conditioning of vehicles preventing window inside fogging. An air-conditioning system for a motor vehicle having a compartment (33) with a windscreen (32) heated by an air flow of controlled temperature, and which includes in the system an evaporator (7), a blower or fan (36) for drawing air over the evaporator (7) and ducting (11, 34) for air distribution. In order to prevent misting of the inside of the windscreen after the vehicle has been parked with the engine shut off the fan (36) is deactived and preferably also the fresh air intake being closed, for a time period after switching on the air-conditioning system.
