Registration is still open at this address. This will be the second edition of the event after the success of the previous edition in Copenhagen, with more than 1,000 participants from 500 organizations and 29 countries in attendance.
All the principal European research infrastructures will be present for a forum that aims to be the main meeting point between research infrastructure and industry. The Big Science Business Forum ( BSBF 2022) is a business oriented congress planned in Granada (Spain) from 4 to 7 October 2022. The manufacturing is being carried out under the terms of the Procurement Arrangement for switching networks, fast discharge units, DC busbars and instrumentation, concluded in 2011 between the ITER Organization and Russian Domestic Agency. The material represented the 25th delivery of electrotechnical equipment developed and manufactured at the Efremov Institute (NIIEFA) in Saint Petersburg on behalf of the ROSATOM State Corporation. All of the equipment is destined for one of ITER's most crucial systems-power supply, without which it would be impossible to reach First Plasma. In addition, DC switches, energy-dissipating resistors, and elements of control and cooling systems were part of the shipment. The delivery included a large number of high-current DC busbars (photo), which provide power supply to the ITER magnet system superconducting coils and are designed for long-term flow of direct current of 55 kA. Not bad when so many other industries now face steep drops in demand.On 3 August 2022, the last of 14 trucks of Russian electrotechnical equipment was delivered to ITER at the DAHER warehouse in Port-Saint-Louis-du-Rhône, where mid-sized components are stored pending their transfer to the ITER site.
#UPPER VOLTA WITH MISSILES SCHMIDT PLUS#
Yet it is important to note that the defence budget proposals for 2010 will result in an increase in military spending of 4% to $534bn, plus $130bn for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. And, Boeing builds the F-22’s wings and aft fuselage in Seattle, employing almost 1,200 people. Proposed cuts in missile-defence programmes will also greatly scale back Boeing’s airborne-laser programme. Gates’s plan to end production of the C-17 military transport aircraft and to scale back the army’s future combat systems programme proved negative for the company. It is Boeing, however, that stands to be the main loser of the defence budget proposals. The company has cleverly spread F-22-related jobs around 46 states, winning the company praise from politicians across the US. Lockheed Martin should also be able to call on significant support in Congress for the JSF. “Costs for the F-22 Raptor have risen to $340m since production was curtailed.” Northrop Grumman, a principal subcontractor in the production of the JSF, is another major beneficiary. A planned increase in spending on littoral combat ships will also benefit the company. Increased production of the JSF will more than compensate for any loss of earnings that Lockheed Martin suffers as a result of halting the Raptor programme. Lockheed Martin’s share price rose following the budget proposals, while that of Boeing and other major defence contractors fell. And, investors appeared to agree with the analysts. This may be true but according to a number of analysts, Lockheed Martin fared best among defence and aerospace companies from the Defense Department’s rearranged spending. Immediately following Gates’s press conference announcing the 2010 budget proposals, Lockheed Martin warned of huge layoffs if the Raptor programme were to end. Meanwhile, China is rapidly building up its military forces but is unlikely to be able to challenge the USA for another two decades, by which time the Raptor will long have been rendered obsolete.įurthermore, whereas sales of the F-35 to friendly foreign powers can partly offset the cost of building the aircraft, the technology involved in the Raptor is so advanced that Federal law bans the aircraft’s export.
