GC: n CT: PROTECTED TAG EDITORS. A new generation of editors for HTML, XML or even SGML documents are the tag editors, equipped with translation memory functionality. These tools enable translators to work in the HTML source, with only the relevant markup visible to translators. A translation memory engine keeps
GC: n CT: The most radical prediction of science fiction is the technological singularity. As author and mathematician Vernor Vinge put it in his 1993 essay The Coming Technological Singularity, “Within 30 years, we will have the technological means to create superhuman intelligence. Shortly after, the human era will be
CG: n CT: The future of teleworking: A place-based toolkit for local development. This project aims to support national, regional and local governments of the OECD in promoting a smooth transition to the likely large-scale and enduring use of teleworking conducive to sustainable social and economic local development. This project
GC: n CT: A terawatt (TW) is a decimal multiple of the derived unit of power in the International System of Units (SI) watt, which is defined as one joule per second. Power measures the rate of energy conversion or the rate at which work is done. One watt is
GC: n CT: Nowadays, closely linked to terminology and its practice (terminography), thta is to say, to terminology in its wider sense, we can also find “Terminotics” (see section 5.2) and all the benefits and advantages it entails for studies like the one presented here, so dependent on computer-aided tools.
GC: n CT: Text categorization (also known as text classification, or topic spotting) is the task of automatically sorting a set of documents into categories from a predefined set. This task has several applications, including automated indexing of scientific arti- cles according to predefined thesauri of technical terms, filing patents
GC: n CT: SuperSILO is one of the leading European companies manufacturing textile silos for biomass and the industry in general. Its environmental awareness in the renewable energy sector, together with its broad experience in the biomass market, makes SuperSILO an experienced and serious company that is responsible with regard
GC: n CT: Heat transfer by conduction involves transfer of energy within a material without any motion of the material as a whole. The rate of heat transfer depends upon the temperature gradient and the thermal conductivity of the material. Thermal conductivity is a reasonably straightforward concept when you are
GC: n CT: As the name implies, thermal inertia represents the ability of a material to conduct and store heat, and in the context of planetary science, it is a measure of the subsurface’s ability to store heat during the day and reradiate it during the night. While compositional differences
GC: n CT: The term thermal insulation can refer either to materials used to reduce the rate of heat transfer, or the methods and processes used to reduce heat transfer. Heat energy can be transferred by conduction, convection, radiation. Thermal insulation prevents heat from escaping a container or from entering
GC: n CT: Thermal power plants use water as working fluid. Nuclear and coal based power plants fall under this category. The way energy from fuel gets transformed into electricity forms the working of a power plant. In a thermal power plant a steam turbine is rotated with help of
GC: n CT: A new type of thermodynamic cycle originating from extended application of the heat pipe principle is proposed and its thermal cycle is discussed from the viewpoint of theoretical thermal efficiency and Coefficient of Performance (COP). An idealized structure that will meet the basic function for thermal systems
GC: n CT: This research presents useful insights into making decisions regarding the thermosyphon heat transfer system between the nuclear reactor and chemical plant. Developing very high-temperature reactor technologies for producing electricity, hydrogen, and other energy products is a high priority for a successful national energy future. S: INL –
GC: n CT: Thesauri are arranged in tree-like structures called hierarchies. A hierarchical structure allows terms to be logically organized so users can easily browse the more general concepts, and can “drill down” from concepts of interest to find more specific concepts. Thesauri also store additional information about each term
GC: n CT: There are currently no tidal barrages in the UK. The most promising site in the UK would be across the Severn estuary. A barrage across the Severn estuary could supply up to 5% of the UK’s electricity requirements. However, this would also be very expensive to construct.
GC: n CT: What is Tidal Energy? Tidal energy is a form of hydropower that converts the energy of the tides into electricity or other useful forms of power. The tide is created by the gravitational effect of the sun and the moon on the earth causing cyclical movement of
GC: n CT: The tidal power plant at the Rance River estuary in Brittany, France, uses a barrage. It was built in 1966 and is still functioning. The plant uses two sources of energy: tidal energy from the English Channel and river current energy from the Rance River. The barrage
GC: n CT: The range of the tides is the difference in sea level between high and low tides. Spring tide, having the maximum range, occurs during the full moon when the earth is between the moon and the sun, and new moon when the moon is between the earth
GC: n CT: Work is to begin on the largest tidal turbine energy project in Europe after the Scottish government approved it. MeyGen is to install the tidal array in stages in the Pentland Firth, between Orkney and the Scottish mainland. It will begin with a 9MW demonstration project of
GC: n CT: For 30 years or so, scientists have been trying to find the right shape for the magnetic container and how to make it. The front-runner among confinement systems at the moment is the so-called tokamak -derived from the Russian acronym for toroidal magnetic chamber. Tokamak is the
