“ So beautiful ‘, many tourists exclaimed. “ This cable car must be done in the West, but how can Vietnam do it? “. “ It’s Vietnam that did it “. “ That’s amazing, the forest, the mountains are so steep, it’s really talented to get the cable up “. “ Must use a helicopter, right? “… Questions from visitors mixed in with the sound of loudspeakers introducing the Sun World Fansipan Legend tourist area. Suddenly, it has been 5 years since Sun Group inaugurated the cable car line connecting the earth to the sky, Trinh Van Ha, Dang Ngoc Hong and their teammates have just returned to Sapa. Fansipan cable car “flying” through Muong Hoa valley. “ Everything has changed so much “. Sapa is no longer as attractive as the day when surveying engineer Trinh Van Ha carried a backpack for 8-9 hours on the bus from Hanoi to Fansipan. The stories between the two guys who used to eat the dew and sleep in the mountains every day kept flowing, on the cable car cabin – something they used to wonder constantly “ Can it be done and when will it be done? , when standing from the foot of the mountain looking up, do not know where is the top of Fansipan that they have to take the cable car to. “ Initially, the cable car station was planned to be built in Sin Chai. But there, if you choose to set the station too low, guests will not be able to see the beauty of Muong Hoa valley. If placed in a high position, it will affect the unspoiled landscape. The current departure station location is high enough for visitors to see the valley, low enough not to disrupt the beautiful landscape of the Hoang Lien range. “- the story of choosing the location of the departure station, the arrival station, and the cable car poles, Trinh Van Ha still remembers it clearly. Because you had to climb all 5 mountains around Fansipan peak several times before coming to the final decision. “ The shack is still there. 700 thousand/night Dang Ngoc Hong pointed to the shack peeking under the forest canopy, recalling the memory of the early days of climbing Fansipan, not having time to return to town when it was dark, the ethnic people charged a fee to stay in a shack for a night more than a hotel. 3 stars. The fear of getting lost in the night in the middle of Hoang Lien forest made him shiver. Sun Group engineers went to survey Fansipan in 2013. From the cable car cabin looking at the mountain range on the other side, only seeing 35kV electric poles soaring out of the forest, the feeling of reverberation echoed in him. On that day, every morning, “human ants” (indigenous people were hired to carry materials to the mountains to build electricity pylons) diligently carrying cement, iron and steel… along the mountain’s spine. climb up. “ At one point, 400-500 Hmong (Sapa) and Thai (Lai Chau) people were mobilized to speed up the construction progress. “- Mr. Hong said. Without that 35kV power line, there is no Fansipan cable car now. Making the power line to the top is equally arduous as making the cable car. That day, the luggage that Trinh Van Ha brought to Fansipan was the experience of the guy who had participated in 2 cable car routes to set a world record in Ba Na. But all does not seem to help much, maybe, just a little experience in the jungle, but the forest in Fansipan is far from Ba Na forest. Monolithic stone is transported to the top of Fansipan by human power. In the first days of coming to Sapa, the feeling of excitement quickly gave way to skepticism. The bone-chilling cold at the top was like a needle piercing the skin. Putting down the phone after the quick calls home, he wondered: why did I accept my boss’s invitation to come to this sacred forest and poison water? Or, at best, go home? Ask, to answer yourself: don’t give up. Three months before April 30, 2015, every day, Mr. Nguyen Khac Tuong, captain of the LCS cable maintenance team, signed papers for thousands of people to enter Hoang Lien National Park to work for the cable car company. only about 100 people could stay. Up to now, the nights of heavy snow that had to stay at the T4 tower still haunt Chiang. “ Always have a stick by your side, sometimes you have to get up to see if the canvas is sunken to use a stick to poke the snow down, otherwise the shack will collapse. “. Sleeping on your back? The sleep of those who climb the forest and climb mountains all day has never been as easy as people think. On rainy and windy nights, more than ten boys crawled into a shack set up low like a sowing tent in the countryside, half sitting, half lying down waiting for the morning sun, anxiously afraid of the flood. Snakes, graters, half-cooked meals, days when the flood broke up, food could not be moved to the mountains, eating raw instant noodles with little breath… In this life, none of you can forget Fansipan that day. “Duck tent” to avoid the sun and rain of engineers and construction workers on the top of Fansipan. The harshness of the peak of 3143m is a test for Sun Group and foreign experts. After a lot of surveys, the results show that with a steep terrain, the single-wire cable car will not be able to withstand the gusts of wind that can reach level 12 in Fansipan. And the solution proposed by Doppelmayr cable car experts is a three-wire cable car – a technology that Sun Group engineers have never tried. “ Compared with a single-wire cable car, besides the skyrocketing construction cost, the implementation is many times more complicated. 3-wire cable car requires very high accuracy with a tolerance of only 2.5mm – an extremely difficult requirement, it takes a lot of time to get the right construction plan. “- engineer Trinh Van Ha said. And Sun Group chose the three-wire option. Why? Can you still keep the one-line option that was successful in Ba Na? For the safety of visitors. In high wind conditions, the 3-wire cable can still operate smoothly to bring passengers to the top or back to the station. And for the safety of Hoang Lien forest. Using 3-wire cable technology, the number of cable poles will be much less, and this will be the solution that has the least impact on the environment and natural landscape. “ Minimizing interference in the environment when it is a prerequisite “, Mr. Dang Ngoc Hong once again confirmed the explanations of engineer Trinh Van Ha. Decision despite the cost, difficulty. Choose to do it manually so as not to affect the environment. Sun Group posed a difficult problem for its engineers, and made Doppelmayr’s own experts doubtful. The difference in construction of Fansipan cable car. Initially, when the service cable was almost finished, the basic service station had just finished the foundation. Witnessing the image of Vietnamese workers digging manually, foreign experts said that it took 5 years for this work to take shape. However, after just over 2 years, Fansipan cable car was officially inaugurated, in the joy of people eating wind, sleeping dew, turning themselves into “tarzan” for many months in the forest. Looking back now, they still wonder, somehow, that day, I can make it through. But one thing is certain that you all know, it is the care, love, and camaraderie in difficult times that created the motivation for the Fansipan army that day to conquer thousands, creating a work for a lifetime. . “ Day by day, terrors became the norm. Love, solidarity, care, sharing from a piece of rice, a cigarette, a warm coat are the last things left. “, Mr. Trinh Van Ha is sad. Cable car to Arrival Station. Among the noisy guests on how to build the Fansipan cable car, it is not clear if anyone could understand that the Sun Group people pulled the cable by hand, following the forest road, not by helicopter like the experts. Doppelmayr family still do.

The Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco has been making strange noises for the past year. Photo: Reuters Strange sound According to The Guardian (UK), in a windy tunnel in the southwest of Ontario, California, a team of acoustic and aerodynamic experts is testing on a model of the railing of the Golden Gate Bridge. Experts have contracted to solve the mystery of a strange humming sound emanating from the famous bridge in San Francisco over the past year. Some residents living nearby feel extremely uncomfortable hearing this noise. Accordingly, this mysterious sound appears only on days with strong winds. It has been compared by some to the “ghost harmonica”, “the sound of the monks chanting”, or the “wheezing sound”. This strange sound quickly became a thrilling story in San Francisco. A music producer has put it on a track of existential fear. Some amused people consider it the “mellow song” of the bridge, others say the sound is very “creepy” and they can’t stand it. aliens made this noise. “It sounds like a noise I can imagine prison guards use to torture prisoners,” one social media user shared. But whether San Francisco people love it or hate it, engineers will get rid of it next summer. Video: The mysterious sound from the Golden Gate Bridge (Source: Youtube): The cause of the mysterious sound After residents of the city began complaining about the noise in June 2020, authorities began an investigation. They monitor this sound and use instruments to measure the vibration of the humming. They found that the sound usually comes out at 440 hz, matching the note of A. The noise occurs when the wind hits the new balustrade, installed from a slight angle, slightly north or south, relative to the normal wind from the west. “After carefully studying the phenomenon, we determined the sound was coming from the new aerodynamic railing that we installed on the west side,” said Paolo Cosulich-Schwartz, a spokesman for the Bridge Management Board. . “It is part of the Golden Gate Bridge upgrade, designed to protect the bridge by allowing it to withstand sustained high winds of up to about 160 km/h.” He said new, thinner railings have been installed to ensure the bridge doesn’t have the same problems as the ill-fated Tacoma Narrows Bridge in Washington. The bridge shook violently in the wind, then collapsed in 1940, shortly after a few months of construction. “So we had to go ahead with this project. As climate change leads to more extreme weather events, it is imperative that the construction be completed as soon as possible,” said Cosulich-Schwartz, adding that the building was retrofitted with wind resistance in 2016. last year at a cost of $12 million. A study conducted in 2013 showed that the maximum wind speed that the bridge can withstand is 111 km/h. Since its inauguration, the Golden Gate Bridge has been closed 3 times due to bad weather conditions, in 1951 with strong winds of 111 km/h, in 1982 with strong winds of 113 km/h and in 1983 with strong winds of 121 km /H. Fortunately, no damage occurred. So bridge engineers looked for newer thin slats that would allow the bridge to withstand winds of up to 160km/h. They just didn’t expect the bars to create such a “symphony”. Wind gusts of 160km/h are only possible in the event of a tornado, hurricane or tropical storm, said Warren Blier, a senior science official with the National Weather Service. The Golden Gate Bridge has been closed 3 times in its history due to strong winds. Photo: AP Attempts to silence the noise Meanwhile, engineers are determined to find a way to fix the problem. At engineering firm RWDI, an hour west of Toronto, a model of a bridge the size of a conference room was built in a wind tunnel. Engineers are testing various wind speeds and modifications to see if they can quell the noise. However, in the city of San Francisco, not everyone wants this noise to go away. A local blogger even created a sound list around the Golden Gate Bridge to help listeners sleep better. “I love the sound,” says Brianne Howell, a resident of west San Francisco, who shot a video of the bridge humming on one of her regular walks along the coast. “It reminds me of the weird sound in a horror movie. It’s sad to have to remove it.” Construction of the Golden Gate Bridge was started in 1933 and completed in 1937. The bridge spanning the Pacific Ocean, connecting the city of San Francisco with Marin County, has a length of up to 2,700 meters and a ground height of nearly 90 meters. . The Golden Gate Bridge is not only famous for its arduous construction process, but is also known as a tourist magnet of the United States.

Born… as a historical necessity To learn more about one of the oldest and largest railway systems in the world, RFI Interviewed engineer Ta Quang Anh, working at the French National Railway Corporation (SNCF) about the birth of the French railway network. The engineer said that the French railway industry was “conceived” in the first three decades of the nineteenth century. Appearing more slowly in England, where the first steam engine was mounted on railcarts in trade fairs from about the mid-1810s, the birth of the French railway network was also in the similar scene, as a historical necessity. That necessary background is the final stage of the First Industrial Revolution in Europe, the period of the meeting between supply and demand. Regarding demand, in the economic field, it is the need to transport finished products in large quantities, especially in the mining industry and later in chemicals, textiles, and agriculture. In the political field, it is the need to plan territory, unify transportation and administration in a large country with many diverse geographical and cultural characteristics. The achievements of metallurgical technology have enabled the production of quality steels for train wheels and tracks, especially with production capacity for thousands of kilometers of track. In terms of supply, it’s the ability to respond to technology. This is also the intersection of two technological factors that have both developed to the necessary maturity at that time. On the one hand, the achievement of metallurgical technology has allowed the production of quality steels for train wheels and tracks, especially with production capacity for thousands of kilometers of track. On the other hand, in the mechanical and steam engine industry, the soul of the industrial revolution, despite overcoming barriers to liberate labor, is still an inspiring creative ground for optimization in terms of technology. performance and size. On the French side, in 1823, the first railway, 18 km long, connected a coal mine from the vicinity of Saint-Etienne down to a port of the Loire in Andrézieux. Although only using gravity to transport coal to the river port and using horse power to pull construction materials in the opposite direction, in terms of infrastructure, this is considered the first line of the French and European railway network. continent. Only 7 years later, another 58 km line connecting Saint-Etienne with Lyon was also put into operation. This was the first time in France, the steam locomotive improved by French engineer Marc Seguin was put into use instead of horses with a record speed of 12 km/h at that time. A year later, in 1831, the line also began carrying passengers. In 1823, the first railway, 18 km long, connected a coal mine from the vicinity of Saint-Etienne down to a port of the Loire in Andrézieux. In 1814, at the very beginning of the world’s railway history, when it first appeared in England, a strategic report was submitted to Emperor Napoleon by Chief Engineer Moisson-Desroches, highlighting the importance of it. of planning a railway network of seven lines radiating from Paris to all parts of the “hexagonal country”. By 1837, the strategic idea of ​​Moisson-Desroches was concretized in the planning of Alexis Legrand, then the General Architect of roads and mines of France. The drawing that later became known as the “Legrand Star” was the first planning map of the French railway industry. Also in 1837, the first dedicated passenger railway was put into operation, connecting Paris to the suburb of Saint-Germain-en-Laye. On paper and in the field, 1837 can thus be considered the “AD” year of the French railway history. Before World War I, nearly 60,000 km of Line 1 covered France, a sixfold increase in about 60 years. After about 15 years of relatively spontaneous development (since the railway law 1842 stipulates the model of railway socialization), by the end of 1858-early 1859, the railway agreement between the State and 6 railway companies was established. iron is an important legal corridor for network development. This agreement is meant to divide the development market share of private companies authorized by the State to develop the arterial railway system. In 1865, the law was expanded to allow local governments to be authorized to build and operate branch and cross lines for railway companies. The period of the second half of the nineteenth century and the early years of the twentieth century, with the development stimulus mechanisms of the central and local governments, was the period of breakthrough development of the French railway network, at least in terms of total length of routes in the whole system. By the time of World War I, nearly 60,000 km of Line 1 (now about 30,000 km) covered France, a sixfold increase in about 60 years. All provincial administrative sub-areas are connected to the railway network. Also during the early twentieth century, power options such as electric and diesel were also tested and developed for locomotives. The birth of the SNCF was the result of the nationalization of the railway industry in favor of the plan to electrify the entire railway network, a proactive step after the energy and economic crisis of the 1930s. In 1938, the National Railway Corporation (SNCF) was established. The entire 42,700 km of railway with debts and more than half a million railway employees are combined into one. The birth of the SNCF was the result of the nationalization of the railway industry in favor of the plan to electrify the entire railway network, a proactive step after the energy and economic crisis of the 1930s. This was considered the optimal political-economic choice at that time, in the context that the precursor private companies of SNCF faced a lot of financial difficulties after a period of overheating development in terms of terminal infrastructure. In the nineteenth century and especially after the years of World War I there was no source of income, which was followed by the Great Depression of 1929. Railway unions, representing more than half a million workers, became industrial unions are very vocal in society, contributing significantly to workers’ movements. A breakthrough in quality The operating speed at that time was 260km/h, in the same year, the design and test speed reached a world record at 380km/h. The birth of the TGV opens a new breakthrough development phase for the French railway industry. Unlike the breakthrough period in infrastructure in the second half of the 19th century, TGV has “miniatured” France and even Europe with only 3-4 hours of travel. During the period 1990-2010, many domestic TGV routes were inaugurated, notably the Eurostar route running through 50 km of the English Channel tunnel to the UK, the Thalys route going to Belgium and the Netherlands… In 1997, the State separated the infrastructure management part from the SNCF by establishing the National Railway Network (RFF). This is the first step of France when implementing commitments on competition in the field of rail transport in the European Union (EU). In 2015, RFF re-entered a member company of SNCF, after having spun off the mining part into another independent subsidiary in the group. In 1981, France put into operation the first high-speed train line TGV connecting Paris and Lyon. In 2007, France once again broke the world record for the test speed of the express train at 574.8 km/h. To date, this is still the world record for train technology running on rails. In 2020, the state monopoly on train operation officially ends. During the last 30 years of the twentieth century, the absolutely safe operation of 400 tons of steel on rails at 320 km/h has always been a technological icon in the ground passenger transport industry. TGV technology is exported and transferred to many countries, in Europe, to the US, Morocco and even Korea. For the French, TGV is a “national pride”. According to a poll of the French population, the TGV is considered one of the most important inventions of the 20th century, along with the computer, mobile phone and microwave oven. For the passenger railway industry, TGV was born as a lifeline in the context of the energy crisis of the 1970s, the aging of the traditional railway system from nearly 150 years made the railway no longer an option. number one choice for travel needs as highways thrive and air routes become increasingly accessible to price segments. In passenger transport, the decisive factor is not necessarily the speed of travel, but the sum of travel time, comfort, safety and, of course, price. TGV was born to most harmoniously meet these factors. TGV routes connect the centers of major cities (in France and later in Europe, both mainland and British islands) in the journey with moderate time, high safety, good service quality. The railway network in France is operated by the French National Railways Corporation (SNCF). For those doing railway engineering and technology, TGV’s 20 years of conception, 40 years of exploitation, perfection and development has been and will be an inspiration for technical innovation initiatives in many years. fields, from structural infrastructure, energy, signal information to rolling stock; from the construction and manufacturing industry to the maintenance industry. According to engineer Ta Quang Anh, the nearly 200-year history of formation and development is an advantage of French railways. In the world, besides the UK, there is no country as “rail age” as France. This is a great advantage in terms of experience. The coverage of the French railway network compared to the entire geographical territory is very high. Although France is not a country with a very high percentage of urban population, according to one statistic, about 89% of the French population live less than 10 km from a train station (in cities like Paris, this distance is much smaller). . This contributes significantly to the formation of habits and the need to use railways for transportation. About 89% of the French population lives less than 10 km from the station (in cities like Paris, this distance is much smaller). This contributes significantly to the formation of habits and the need to use railways for transportation. On the other hand, rail transport in France with over 80% electrification is a fundamentally environmentally friendly transport industry. With such a large coverage, in the medium and long term future, with the commitments of the French Government to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the framework of global environmental agreements, railway transport (both cargo and passengers) will undoubtedly remain key government priorities. As more than 80% of the railway network is electrified, with France’s civil nuclear power capacity, the French railway industry has a huge advantage in terms of energy initiative over most railway countries. However, the French railway industry also faces some limitations. A prime example is the British railway industry, which has been in decline since the late twentieth century. In the case of the French railway industry, in terms of people, changing production habits is no longer suitable for the application of modern means and production methods, in many cases, encountering resistance from the government itself. old experiences. In terms of infrastructure, most of the French railway network was designed and built before the twentieth century. Adapting to climate change is a big challenge for network maintenance and repair. TGV is a legacy engineering innovation based on ballast rock infrastructure and wheel-rail contact. But if you want to increase the speed of operation to over 400 km/h, such infrastructure is likely no longer suitable, especially when put on the balance sheet with the cost of maintenance. Of course, train speed is not a prerequisite, but if France decides to race in this direction, it must accept going slower than other countries that have developed or transferred technology for maglev infrastructure. such as Germany, Japan, China.

Over the past decade, research has shown that enjoying music from vinyl really creates an enjoyable listening experience. In fact, audiophiles prefer to listen to music from vinyl sources, it gives the feeling that we are in the middle of a performance, a very magical experience! Turntable also offers a special physical interaction, you can hold the cover, share with friends albums with impressive cover designs. It can be said that it is a very special connection between the listener, the album cover, the artist, the turntable and the music stage. No.5105 brought the disc back to the world of Mark Levinson in a very special way. The look, feel, feel and design are so beautiful that it can’t be an exaggeration to use the word “perfect” by Mark Levinson No.5105 and it also perfectly blends in with the design of the other brands. equipment of the 5000 series. Like the rest of the 5000 Series, Mark Levinson’s engineers used 1in thick aluminum plate, the screen hidden deep behind the glass with familiar metal buttons to create a uniform design language. The aluminum chassis is solidly machined, finished with a black powder coating that feels really luxurious and classy. No.5105 charcoal tray has a rectangular aluminum design with sharp cutting lines. The plinth base is CNC made from a very large rectangular aluminum monolith, then hollowed out the gut so that components can be attached directly from below. At first glance, users may think that the device is assembled from individual components, but this is a complete monolithic product with a lot of intricately combined details. The lever of the No.5105 charcoal wheel has a double-axis rotation, which allows the lever to move up and down, left and right easily, and more importantly, this mechanism allows the tonearm to perform twisting movements. complex. This is an important factor, because the cartridge needle must always “companion” on the LP track. In particular, the sleeve of No.5105 is made from carbon fiber because this is a very hard and also very light material. When Mark Levinson engineers selected the tip to go with this charcoal, they had to try many tests and listen to the sound to make sure the selected cartridge had to deliver a sound quality that was in tune with the performance philosophy, sound color and tone. , the way to represent the image, the ability to create sophisticated dynamics similar to No.5105. Because the charcoal tray is a purely mechanical device, the needle head must also work extremely well with the lever and the rest of the charcoal plate. And Mark Levinson’s final decision was the Ortofon MC Quintet Black S cartridge. Mr. Chris Robinson – Global Coaching Director of Mark Levinson Mr. Chris Robinson – Mark Levinson’s global training director said: “I feel very happy that I still keep most of my favorite vinyl records over the years. For example, discs made with technology. in UHQR (pressing each disc by hand from vinyl), especially the album of the group SARGENT PEPPER.And when I listen to that album again on No.5105, the detail and realism gives me an extreme musical experience. It’s an incredibly emotional experience!”. The turntable is loved by listeners for its simplicity, from sound quality to spiritual value, and at the same time, it also brings a sense of nostalgia. And with Mark Levinson’s No.5105 turntable, users will experience a combination of modern functionality and classic beauty, where science meets analog art.

“Initially, I only planned to grow vegetables and flowers to have a place for my children to admire and play. Unexpectedly, a year later, I had a green vegetable garden on an area of ​​3m2 of the balcony”, Mr. Nguyen shared. shall. Without much experience and knowledge about farming, for the past year, Nguyen has had to tinker with, learn the characteristics, and how to take care of plants. “Growing vegetables on the balcony will be much more difficult than growing on the terrace, because of the narrow area, lack of sunlight and constant cleaning. Fortunately, my balcony faces east, so it receives sunlight from morning to noon. This makes an important contribution to good green vegetables,” Nguyen said. According to Mr. Nguyen, soil is also an important factor to help plants grow well. He chose a mixed soil consisting of coconut humus, bean residue, rice husk ash and mixed with cow manure and treated vermicompost to plant trees. To create a nutrient-rich soil substrate, Nguyen mixes soil and organic fertilizer at the ratio of 60% soil plus 20% processed cow dung and 20% treated vermicompost. After that, he incubated with lime and put it in a pot. Once a week, he fertilizes vegetables once a week. “When adding fertilizer, I mix soil and fertilizer equally, absolutely no chemical fertilizers. Sometimes, I mix coffee grounds, aloe vera sap when harvesting to make fertilizer.” electromechanical engineer shared. One very important thing to keep the tree healthy is to take care and water it regularly. “If the plant lacks water, it will die or if we over-water the plant, the roots will be waterlogged,” Nguyen said. He also installed an automatic watering system for peace of mind when away from home. In addition to scallions, Mr. Nguyen’s garden also has basil, lettuce, lemon basil, mint, perilla, spinach, spinach, broccoli, aloe vera… Growing vegetables on high-rise balconies will also be attacked by insects or pests. At first, his vegetable garden had a similar situation. To protect vegetables, Mr. Nguyen uses a biological product to irrigate the plants, since then, aphids, aphids, red spiders, rollers, and snails no longer appear. Nguyen at his vegetable garden. Green butterfly pea plant. To grow a variety of plants in a narrow space, Nguyen took advantage of shelves, pots, and plastic bottles. Next, he neatly arranged the planting pots to look both beautiful and grow many different types of plants. From the day he had a balcony garden, Mr. Nguyen took advantage of the morning and afternoon to water, check for pests and diseases as well as the nutritional status of vegetables. Every weekend, his children go out to the balcony to learn about plants and how to care for them, and harvest the fruits themselves.

The commander of the Metrology Center exchanged experiences in testing optical equipment with a team of officials and engineers. (Photo taken on April 21, 2021). After “realizing the market” in a number of departments and divisions of the CLC, we gradually envisioned the mission of the center. Formerly the Center for Calibration and Metrology, established on May 29, 1981, the TTL now has the function of advising and proposing on the implementation of metrological assurance; standard keeping, maintaining traceability, and transmitting metrological standards in the military. It is worth mentioning that metrology is a specific technical specialty, while the military does not have a formal training school for metrology officers and employees. In order to solve this difficulty, the officers and employees of the CLC are given all conditions to study and improve their qualifications, from participating in metrology engineering conversion courses to postgraduate study at technical schools in Vietnam. and outside the military. As a result, up to now, the staff of CLC has more than 90% of university and postgraduate degrees, the proportion of post-graduate accounts for 40%. In addition, over the past 40 years, the center has participated in 37 training courses for metrology engineers at the Military Technical Academy, creating a core force to deploy measurement work in units throughout the army.. . At the Optical Standardization Department, Colonel Pham Chi Trung, Head of the Department shared about the department’s tasks and quality of human resources: “The department’s mission is narrow, specialized, highly dual-use, equipped with equipment. It is modern and meets the development trend of the army. Therefore, according to the general policy of the center, the training and training of human resources is very focused. Currently, more than 70% of the staff of the department. have a master’s degree”.

Japanese Prime Minister Suga Yoshihide speaks at the National Assembly. (Photo: Kyodo) Congress Japan on May 12 passed a law that will create a new government agency next September, with the function of promoting digital apps . The new agency will have about 500 people, of which 120 include information technology engineers. Under the new law, the government will remove personal seals (also known as hanko) from official documents and allow the use of digital data instead of paper documents. Prime Minister Suga Yoshihide’s government hopes that with this agency, Japan will increase the application of digital at central and local agencies to improve service quality. Under the new law, Japan will upgrade computer systems at central and local agencies, and enact a nationwide general law to protect personal information. Increased exchange of personal information can cause data leaks and other risks, so the digital application law will also provide privacy protections. Prime Minister Suga’s government has given high priority to digital reform as Japan seeks to strengthen administrative reform through the use of information technology.

Unfortunately, building houses of this type did not present her with enough creative challenge, as the work often comes with limited funds and safe designs. So when she started designing and building her own house, she didn’t choose the safe option. Instead, she chose a very distinctive and modern approach to her new home. challenges Claude decided to design a house based on metal containers at sea. With this decision, she didn’t exactly choose the easiest path. In fact, she encountered a lot of obstacles in the process. For example, it is difficult to find an engineer with the resources and ability to cut containers and install doors and windows in them. She was rejected by four engineers before finding one willing to work with her. Luckily, she finally found someone who dared to take on this project. And the results are amazing! Her house turned out to be very beautiful and it is also eco-friendly. It looks very modern and you can hardly see the containers, but there are some special wall pieces that she still wants to keep the same. Living room https://tinhtexaydung.petrotimes.vn/ The living area looks sleek, modern, and if it weren’t for the wall behind the sofa, you’d never think the house was made of containers. https://tinhtexaydung.petrotimes.vn/ Kitchen https://tinhtexaydung.petrotimes.vn/ The look of the kitchen matches the rest of the house: modern, metallic and minimalist.

Recently, the team upgraded the technique to power and program the multipoint biostimulator from a single transmitter. Thanks to new research, electrical and computer engineer Kaiyuan Yang and colleagues at the George R. Brown School of Engineering (Rice University) won an award at the Society of Electrical and Electrical Engineers’ Custom Integrated Circuits Conference death (IEEE). The researchers performed experiments showing that an alternating magnetic field can be controlled by a battery-powered generator outside the body. The transmitter can be mounted on a belt or harness, powering and programming two or more implants at least 60 millimeters away. The implant can be programmed with a delay measured in microseconds. That could allow them to coordinate the activation of multiple wireless pacemakers in individual heart chambers, says engineer Yang. “Our study shows that it is possible to program the implants to stimulate in a coordinated pattern. We sync every device, like a symphony. That gives us a lot of scope in stimulant treatments, whether it’s for the heart rhythm or the spinal cord.” The scientists also experimented using small implants. Each tissue is about the size and weight of a vitamin. Experiments performed on hydra vulgaris rodents have demonstrated that, for at least a short distance, such devices can stimulate two separate hydras to contract. Then, activate a fluorescent tag to respond to electrical signals and respond at controlled amplitudes along the rodent’s sciatic nerve. “A study on spinal cord regeneration showed that multipoint stimulation in a certain pattern helps restore the nervous system. Several clinical studies are underway, but all are using desktop devices. There is no implantable tool that can do this,” said engineer Yang. Lab devices, called MagNI (for electromagnetic nerve implantation). MagNI was introduced early last year as a cordless spinal cord stimulator for power and programming. That means the wire does not need to be passed through the patient’s skin. Because, putting the wire through the skin is a method that can cause infection.

Information from VinFast said: “Currently, VinFast is focusing on vehicle development projects involving foreign research institutions. However, the COVID-19 epidemic has significantly hindered the conclusion. connectivity and mobility between countries Therefore, VinFast has decided to bring the entire overseas vehicle development team to its headquarters in Vietnam to optimize all resources and facilitate coordination. with the production team at our complex in Hai Phong, Vietnam. VinFast research centers in Australia. The Vietnamese automaker also added: “For this reason, we temporarily closed our Australian office (Port Melbourne) and moved all staff to Vietnam. In fact, Kevin Yardley has resigned. We will fix all matters in accordance with the law if anyone fails to move to Vietnam “. VinFast also said that the decision to close its research and development office in Port Melbourne “will not affect the Lang Lang car test facility. We will make an official notice if there are any changes” . Lang Lang car test facility.

Voto car cockpit simulation model In which, invention The supporting mechanism for the robot is parallel to the spring system with constant power received exclusive patents from the US Patent and Trademark Office. From manufacturing simulated cars to airplanes … Working at the Simulation Modeling Center, Viettel High-Tech Industry Corporation (VHT) under Viettel Group, is Viettel’s main research and production unit in the military and civil fields, Cu Xuan Hung day and night diligently learning, exploring and utilizing human knowledge to master core technology, creating many simulation products in the military field such as the tank control training simulation system, airplanes, personal shooting, car driving simulations … make an important contribution to the modernization of the army, exporting products to the world. One of the typical products of the VHT research group is to successfully manufacture a Su-30 aircraft simulation for military operations. Right from the beginning of the work, the team stumbled on … a rock when asking the question of buying parameters with the manufacturer, the answer that the VHT engineers received was shaking their heads. They had to mobilize all input data sources from reality in related documents and learn knowledge through many different channels such as the Internet, books, magazines at home and abroad, even going abroad to study. . To simulate an airplane, it takes parameters to perform mathematical equations to represent the state of the plane as well as the situation the plane needs to process. Meanwhile, the parameters of the Su-30 aircraft are unknown. In the end, Hung and VHT’s team found more than 100 types of parameter sets and the testing process alone took several years for the VHT engineers. In the world, only Russia is the only country that owns the Su-30 aircraft simulation technology, the quality of products of the Su-30 aircraft simulation model of the VHT research team is assessed by partners. The height is remarkable. Another product successfully researched and manufactured by Hung and VHT is a driving training simulation system called Voto. The system uses modern simulation equipment and technology, bringing the most authentic experience and feeling to the practitioner, is expected to be a safe and effective solution in driver training. Voto is expected to be Vietnam’s first standard and compliant product for a driving simulator cabin for car driving training. Hung and VHT have applied “the invention of the supporting structure for parallel robot with spring system with constant power” in the research and manufacture of Voto. Thanks to this invention, the model of the car cockpit is truly simulated with the drive control cluster (steering wheel, gear lever, clutch, accelerator, brake …) and the clock system showing speed and rotation. equivalent to real vehicle equipment. It is known that the simulation model of Hung and the VHT team is preparing to be mass produced to bring to the market. … to a patent in the US and the aspiration to reach out For every scientist, having a research topic being patented, especially an invention protected by the United States is considered a special achievement, because the US is a country with such leading technology. Gender, the criteria for approval and certification is a very rigorous and thorough process. By the end of 2020, Viettel has had 4 patents, covering all 3 main areas of activity, including military, telecommunications infrastructure, and civil. The invention helps affirm that Viettel can completely master core technologies, making the most difficult products in the field of software development, especially the database system on memory … One of 4 patent plates The invention issued in the US is that of Cu Xuan Hung and the invention group of “supporting structure for the robot parallel with a spring system with constant power”. It is known that this invention of Hung and the research team has been immediately applied to the production of simulation models of tanks and cars for military training and testing. Talking about the patent and other achievements, Hung shared: “Getting patents or intellectual property is not to beautify the product, but our goal is to achieve product recognition. Viettel is on par with the world. This is an important requirement on the way that the product will gradually be optimized for consumers. VHT does not create products like an inventor, but we create products to contribute to the country, for everyone and contribute a part to build the Group. We call it the startup spirit at VHT, ”said Hung. Mr. Nguyen Vu Ha, General Director of VHT said, “US-protected patents are the recognition of inventions and scientific research, thereby, affirming that Vietnam can stand shoulder to shoulder with public corporations. major technology such as Huawei, LG, Nokia … Having these results, VHT has overcome many difficulties and difficulties not only from research, registration but also practical implementation. Currently, the unit is actively applying the value of invention effectively, contributing to building a growing and growing enterprise, raising the position of Vietnamese knowledge to the world ”.

From the experience of some successful countries in digital transformation, identifying the characteristics of the 4.0 era, the authors offer a solution to the problem of human resources and talents for Vietnam to successfully convert numbers. LTS: Industrial revolution 4.0 opens a new era of development. There, a country that cares about building human resources, talent that quickly adapts to the times, knows how to use advanced technology and constantly innovates, that country will win in this fierce competition. We have synergistic advantages that not all countries have. Due to historical circumstances, we have a plentiful amount of overseas Vietnamese intellectual resources. Hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese scientists, experts and engineers are in countries with advanced science, many of whom are great experts, famous professors, and excellent engineers in human intelligence. Create is working for major industrial corporations, leading universities and research institutes in the world. Apply advanced data analysis and machine learning to smart fraud management in e-commerce. Photo: idea.gov.vn Another advantage is that currently, we have about 900,000 human resources in the information technology field, there are a large number of engineers in artificial intelligence, data science … The number of engineers in Blockchain and Fintech is on the rise. These viable factors do not turn into power by themselves, but require wise and creative leadership, organization and combination, knowing how to choose and focus resources on priority goals to create. so the synergy brought the country to a breakthrough. Those advantages are only brought into play when we have a contingent of talented, caring and competent national leaders. Challenges for human resources Besides advantages, our human resources have many limitations and weaknesses. Specifically, the number of untrained human resources is too large, accounting for 75% of the workforce, about 45 million people, which is a rather gloomy picture if we do not quickly equip the right skills. The World Economic Forum’s 2018 report assesses that our human resources are not ready for the 4.0 era, ranked 70 out of 100 countries. Also due to the low skill and nature of labor, our people are vulnerable to technological breakthroughs, losing their jobs and being replaced by automation, intelligent robots, and artificial intelligence. The number of 25% trained also has many problems. Vocational training quality ranks 80/100 countries, only higher than Cambodia (92/100), highly skilled human resources are also in the bottom group, ranking 81/100 countries. We are also close to the penultimate of 90 out of 100 countries in technology and innovation, especially the labor productivity is too low, only 7% of Singapore … Not to mention that there will be a large number of talented people. to other countries if we do not have a clear improvement in the working environment and regimes, policies … Furthermore, the manufacturing base is not ready for Industry 4.0, which belongs to the group of the book team, the average score is 4.9 / 10 – below the average, of which the production structure index is 4.96 / 10. ranked 48/100 countries, production motivation index reached 4.93 / 10, ranked 53rd. Two difficult human resources problems In order to bring into play the advantages and to overcome and overcome the challenges, we have to solve 3 very difficult problems at the same time. Firstly, the requirements for developing skilled human resources and talented people who are ready for digital transformation are extremely large, both in quantity and quality, while the education and training system, especially the elite. Study and vocational training are still weak and cannot be overcome overnight. Second, we need to maintain a consistently high GDP growth rate (over 7% / year) to reach the goal of becoming a high-income country by 2045, while the GDP growth momentum tends to slow down. over the 10-year span in the 1991-2018 period as pointed out by economist Tran Dinh Thien. Third, we need to develop and fully exploit advanced technology and constantly innovate, towards an economy based on innovation, increasing productivity, competitiveness and efficiency while The national innovation system is not only weak and stagnant, but also lacks strong enough pressure and motivation, lacks momentum and a favorable environment for development. Thus, we have to clear up growth bottlenecks and create new growth engines, at the same time we have to solve 2 difficult human resources problems to meet the requirements of the digital transformation period. Firstly, quickly equip the right skills for the majority of people to adapt to the digital transformation, and second, build a team of talent transforming core numbers with the spirit of innovation and leadership. the country’s digital transformation journey. Next period: Blocking skill gaps so as not to be dragged into the 4.0 era Dr. Pham Manh Hung – Dr. Bui Khac Linh (Institute of World Economics and Politics)

Mr. Le Quang Truong, Deputy Technical Director of Gia Lai Power Company affirmed: “Mr. Thuy has met that expectation, not only good at expertise, he also has many valuable initiatives, contributing to development of the power sector, typically as initiatives: Grid power loss reporting program; the program synthesizes the daily operating parameters report and manages the operation sheet; The initiative to connect the MCAP capacitor to the ABB SYS600 system … benefits the power industry billions of dong. Mr. Thuy was awarded many certificates of merit, certificates of merit by the Central Power Corporation and Gia Lai Electricity Company, the title of Grassroots Emulation Soldier “…

On April 23, the list of valid candidates for the 2021 academician co-election of the Chinese Academy of Engineering was announced. Wang Li, the chief engineer of Maotai, was not on the list.

Public information shows that after the presidium of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, 577 effective candidates for academician co-election in 2021 have been determined.

Sohu Finance and Economics found that there were 48 people in the Department of Environment and Textile Engineering, and 8 candidates related to food. Including Shan Yang of Hunan Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Gao Haiyan of Zhejiang Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Jiang Zhengqiang of China Agricultural University, Li Jianrong of Bohai University, Sheng Jun of Yunnan Agricultural University, Wang Shouwei of China Meat Research Center, Xie Mingyong of Nanchang University, Zhang of Guangdong Academy of Agricultural Sciences Name position.

In February of this year, the Guizhou Association for Science and Technology recommended the list of co-opted academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and announced that Wang Li, chief engineer and chief quality officer of Moutai Group, was shortlisted for academician candidates.

China Broadcasting Corporation commented that it is difficult to recommend the selection of academicians by researchers dedicated to the research of “winemaking” technology, and it is difficult to represent the strategic direction of “rejuvenating the country through science and technology,” and it will also cause people to question the direction of social scientific research and academician recommendation and selection criteria. All kinds of questions need to be faced directly, and all parties concerned should be cautious!

Some netizens also questioned the standards of academician candidates, ridiculing the names of “mao-flavor talents” and “baijiu academicians”, and asked whether Laoganma and Shisanxiang had a chance to be shortlisted.

The Guizhou Association for Science and Technology subsequently responded to the question and stated that the Association strictly followed the relevant regulations to carry out the recommendation work, and there was no interference from other factors. At the same time, it is emphasized that candidates who are publicized do not necessarily mean that they will be co-opted as academicians.

Under the ridicule of netizens “Maoxiang Technology”, how to improve the innovation ability of the liquor industry has become one of the focuses of discussion.

Kweichow Moutai’s 2020 financial report showed that the company achieved operating income of 94.915 billion yuan, an increase of 11.10% year-on-year, and the net profit attributable to shareholders of listed companies was 46.697 billion yuan, an increase of 13.33% year-on-year.

Among them, research and development expenses were 50.398 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 3.51%, which was less than one-thousandth of revenue.

Up to now, Kweichow Moutai has authorized a total of 160 patents, of which 62 are design patents, and 33 and 32 are invention and utility model patents respectively.

Moutai’s design patents account for about 40% of the total number of patents, mainly for wine bottles, wine boxes, etc. Up to now, there are 150 design patents, of which 80 are suspended and no longer used. It can be seen that the design patents are very good. Timeliness.

According to rough statistics, among the 33 invention patents, Wang Li has participated in more than 20 projects, including research on brewing microorganisms, methods for identifying the quality of pit mud, and methods for determining 100 pesticide residues in liquor.

In addition, Kweichow Moutai has 32 utility model patents, including a koji powder charging system, carbon fiber spade sticks and wine-making tools, and a liquor plant structure, most of which are related to liquor production.

ST25 is the best Vietnamese rice variety in the world in 2019, researched and bred by engineer Ho Quang Cua and his colleagues. Around the story of Vietnam’s ST25 rice being registered for trademark protection by 4 US enterprises, the Intellectual Property Department (Ministry of Science and Technology) said: ST25 cannot be registered for trademark protection exclusively at Vietnam as well as the US for any individual or organization. ST25 is the best Vietnamese rice variety in the world in 2019, researched and bred by engineer Ho Quang Cua. By 2020, ST25 rice will continue to win the second prize in this delicious rice competition. Mr. Nguyen Van Bay, Deputy Director of the National Office of Intellectual Property said: the rice variety named ST25 has been granted the protection certificate No. 21.VN.2020 according to Decision No. 45 / QD-TT-VPBH dated March 6, 2020. Director of Department of Crop Production, Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development. The holder of the certificate of protection is a private enterprise of Ho Quang Tri and the breeder of rice varieties is Mr. / Mrs. Ho Quang Cua, Tran Tan Phuong, Nguyen Thi Thu Huong. The new ST25 rice variety is a registered product, while ST25 rice is a product with a common name, produced from ST25 rice, so it is not protected in Vietnam as well as in the US. . Mr. Nguyen Van Bay, Deputy Director of Intellectual Property Department (IP) under the Ministry of Science and Technology According to the provisions of Article 186 of the Intellectual Property Law, the plant variety protection certificate holder has the right to use or allow others to exercise the following rights regarding propagating materials (or rice seeds) of the existing variety. Protected: Production, propagation or processing for the purpose of propagation; Offer; selling or carrying out other market access activities; export… As such, the group of authors can prohibit exploitation, production or propagation; processing for propagation; to offer or market this variety. But with rice products, protection cannot be granted because when the enterprise purchases paddy which is harvested from rice grown from ST25 seed to milling and selling rice to the market, of course the product must called ST25 rice. That is why there are so many varieties of rice advertised as ST25 rice on the market. Because it is the common name of a product, anyone dealing in this product (rice) must use the same name, so Point b, Clause 2, Article 74 of the Intellectual Property Law stipulates that the common name of the goods in any language that is widely used, often known, will be considered indistinguishable and will not be registered as a trademark. “Thus, the protection of the state is for the seed rice itself, not the rice – the post-harvest processed product. In this case, not anyone, not even the private enterprise Ho Quang Tri. can be protected exclusively with the ST25 mark for rice products “, said Mr. Nguyen Van Bay. In case many enterprises also put the ST25 rice product on the market, what is the distinguishing sign for consumers to know the commercial origin of the rice product they buy? Mr. Nguyen Van Bay said: Enterprises must bring ST25 rice products to the market under their own brands. That is why we can buy ST25 rice branded “Bao Minh” or ST25 rice from other businesses with different brands … Regarding the fact that there have been a number of businesses registering for ST25 trademarks in the US, the representative of the National Office of Intellectual Property said that all such applications are currently in the process of processing. According to the laws of other countries, including the US, the generic name of the product / service will not be protected as a trademark. For the United States, according to the US Patent and Trademark Application Examination guidelines (USPTO), the assessor will deny the trademark application for the cultivar name. “This can be clearly seen in USPTO’s intentional denial of November 20, 2020 to the mark of“ VIETNAM’S ST25 RICE, DAC SAN SOC TRANG ”according to the application form No. 90151727 filed on September 1, 2020. Company Transworld Foods, Inc (USA). Accordingly, ST25 is the common name of a plant variety (rice) and cannot be registered as a trademark under the provisions of section 1202.12 of the Trademark Appraisal Regulation ”, said Mr. Bay.

According to the official website of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, after the presidium of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, 577 effective candidates for academician co-election are determined in 2021.

As soon as the news came out that Wang Li was recommended by the Guizhou Association for Science and Technology to be included in the list of co-opted academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, people linked the matter to the “Tobacco Academician” controversy many years ago, and even ridiculed him as a “Liquor Academician”. .

As early as February of this year, the China Broadcasting Corporation published the title “Moutai Female Chief Worker Shortlisted for Academician Candidates? Be cautious! “Commentary article. The article mentioned that it is difficult to recommend the selection of academicians by researchers dedicated to the research of “wine-making” technology, which can hardly represent the strategic direction of “rejuvenating the country through science and technology”, and it will also cause people to question the direction of social scientific research and academician recommendation and selection criteria. At the same time, the article pointed out that Moutai Group is a well-known brewing company with a high market position and has ranked first in tax payment in Guizhou for three consecutive years. In this context, the chief engineer of Moutai Group was recommended by the Guizhou Association for Science and Technology to be shortlisted as a co-opted academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering. Has it been affected by market factors other than scientific research results? If elected, will the biggest beneficiary be the brewing company he works for? “All these kinds of questions need to be faced directly, and all parties concerned should be cautious!”

The person in charge of the relevant department of the Chinese Academy of Engineering said in response in February this year that Wang Li is still in the stage of recommendation and publicity by the local Association for Science and Technology, and is not an effective candidate for the academician co-election of the Chinese Academy of Engineering in 2021. “We will continue to pay attention to the relevant situation.”

According to official information from Moutai Group, Wang Li is 49 years old. She graduated from Northwestern Institute of Light Industry (now Shaanxi University of Science and Technology) in 1994, majoring in food, and then joined Moutai Distillery. She is currently the chief engineer of China Kweichow Moutai Distillery (Group) Co., Ltd. Chief Quality Officer, has presided over and participated in the compilation of a number of enterprise technical standards, and has successively won the second prize of National Technology Invention Award, State Council Special Allowance Expert, National Light Industry “Great Power Craftsman”, National Brewing Senior Appraiser and other honorary titles.

Dang Huy Hoang (born 1990, Hanoi) is an automotive design engineer who graduated from art school in the US. Not only in Vietnam, but also in the international Lego Association, Huy Hoang is also quite famous for owning a collection of up to thousands of models. The 31-year-old engineer’s Lego sets are of different sizes. He even has a hobby of collecting rare Lego models, produced in the 60s. Hoang began to learn and know about this hobby in 2012, while studying in the US. At first, Hoang bought each set with specific assembly instructions, after a period of in-depth research, he began to design his own work. Up to now, he owns about 70% of Lego sets produced from 1989-2000, in the future, he will aim to collect the whole set. Hoang also buys and stores limited edition models that are no longer manufactured in the world. His passion for jigsaw puzzles dates back to when Hoang was a child. Now, besides professional work, Lego is a great world for him to unleash his creativity. “On the surface, these are just incredibly simple assemblies, but with almost limitless possibilities. How it is made depends on your creativity. This is a healthy way of entertainment, preventing me from burying my head on the phone “. In addition to the available models, from the beginning of 2020, Hoang began to arrange Lego to recreate the scene of the village, the Vietnamese temple, the childhood house, the old town of Hanoi … In order to create a unique character for the collection, Hoang took ideas from real scenes and things in the city – where he was born and raised. All scenes are exquisitely miniature and colorful. For example, in order to recreate a boat, Hoang had to learn, collect some actual images, and calculate the proportions of each part. Then, he researched Lego’s available piece, choosing to experiment with a part of the boat to choose the optimal option. On average, Hoang takes about 2 months to sketch and find the right pieces for each work. After that, it takes about 2-3 months to assemble and complete the project. “To have a work created by me, the most important factor is to decide the proportions of the product. After choosing the proportions, I can choose the pieces to assemble the ingredients.” During more than 8 years of playing, his most satisfied product is a cyclo. This is also one of the products that gives Hoang the most emotion and effort. “The cyclo is assembled from more than 1,000 parts. To simulate real life, it takes me about 3 months, searching and collecting the pieces. Also, the cyclo cushion and cover, I have to ordered from a 1998 girls’ Lego collection. “ The Ha Thanh boy revealed that the cost of this hobby is quite expensive, but he liked it so he could not stop. “Just like some of you like shoes, bags, plants, pets … I like Lego. Once I have self-control, I can balance my expenses so that I can play without bothering. Especially, the most important thing is that I always receive support from my wife and family “. Engineer Ha Thanh said that it is very difficult to preserve these models. Must have anti-dust glass cabinets, to the details in the box, classified according to each color group and avoid exposure to sunlight. The puzzle pieces are clearly divided to facilitate inventory and extraction when needed. In the future, Hoang wishes to expand the space into a gallery or museum for his collection.
