BEIJING, 6 de octubre de 2020 /PRNewswire/ — CGTN publicó recientemente un artículo sobre la «Familia de los trabajadores del tren» – tres generaciones han elegido la misma ocupación – el mantenimiento del tren. Fueron testigos del desarrollo de la tecnología ferroviaria y el artículo muestra sus sueños en el ferrocarril Qinghai-Tibet.

Leer el artículo original: aquí

«Sigo soñando con mi padre y mi abuelo,» dijo Li Haifeng, un inspector de tren en Xining Depot – el lugar donde los trenes del ferrocarril Qinghai-Tibet hicieron sonar su primer silbato.

Li, de 31 años, ha estado investigando y solucionando fallos no detectados en las instalaciones de cada vagón para garantizar la seguridad de cada viaje en tren. Ha estado en esta ocupación durante siete años hasta ahora, cuyo período, sin embargo, es sólo una fracción de la de su padre y abuelo.

La manzana no cae lejos del árbol

La historia comenzó en 1958 cuando su abuelo Li Wangfu, nativo de Shandong del este de China, pasó de Darng Railway Bureau a Xining en una transferencia de trabajo. «Llegué aquí el 15 de agosto de 1958», dijo Li Wangfu a CGTN. A los 80 años, todavía recuerda claramente la fecha. Después de un largo viaje accidentado, lo que apareció ante sus ojos era una tierra estéril donde el sol ardía directamente.

Cuando el depósito ferroviario de Xining fue establecido en octubre de 1959, Li Wangfu se convirtió en uno de los pocos inspectores de trenes en la meseta escasamente poblada. En ese entonces, resolvió problemas e hizo revisiones con un montón de herramientas torpes durante el día y vivió en un sótano, que él y sus colegas cavaron por sí mismos, en una colina de polvo justo al sur del garaje de la estación, por la noche.

«En ese momento, fuimos a donde nos necesitaban», dijo. Todos los días salía a trabajar con sus abrigos empapados en aceite de motor negro. Trabajó duro pero valió la pena. Se convirtió en uno de los primeros jefes de inspección de trenes en la meseta Qinghai-Tibet en 1984, el año en que el ferrocarril que une Xining y Golmud, respectivamente la primera y segunda ciudad más grande de la provincia de Qinghai, comenzó a funcionar.

El hijo igual que el padre. La incursión de Li Xiujin en el mantenimiento del tren fue enormemente influenciada por su padre Li Wangfu. «Mi padre una vez me llevó en su tren, sentí que era realmente un buen trabajo», recordó. En 1983, fue asignado al Golmud Depot. «En aquel entonces, tardamos más de dos días en viajar de Xining a Golmud, donde arenas y guijarros volaban a nuestro alrededor.»

Li Xiujin y sus colegas vivían en una pequeña cabaña de barro y llevaban martillos de reparación con ellos para trabajar todos los días. Durante los últimos 37 años, fue testigo del floreciente desarrollo de las tecnologías ferroviarias, lo que ha facilitado en gran medida la inspección de trenes.

El sistema ferroviario Qinghai introdujo una serie de máquinas de detección automática en 2012, en medio de un impulso de desarrollo impulsado por la tecnología a nivel nacional. Li Xiujin aprendió tecnología de vanguardia y se convirtió en un analista centralizado TFDS (Train of Freight Failures Detection System). «Ahora puedo revisar alrededor de 300 trenes cada día en el ordenador.»

Los trabajos de reparación y mantenimiento solían confiar más en la experiencia, pero ahora las «habilidades integrales» basadas en conocimientos técnicos también son necesarios para garantizar la seguridad de los pasajeros, de acuerdo con la tercera generación Li Haifeng.

Desde locomotoras de vapor hasta trenes eléctricos

En las décadas de 1950 y 1960, lo que el tren ofrecía era un viaje de fondo, de días de duración, que era la época en que el vapor reinaba los ferrocarriles. Las locomotoras de vapor ayudaron a empujar al mundo a la primera revolución industrial y desde entonces han forjado adelante la civilización humana para los próximos 150 años.

En China, la producción y el uso de locomotoras de vapor continuaron hasta finales de la década de 1980, aunque la mayoría de ellas se eliminaban gradualmente en un momento mucho más temprano. En la década de 1960, los trenes de vapor lideraron el desarrollo de las redes ferroviarias del país, impulsando su desarrollo socioeconómico.

Li Wangfu fue testigo de las antigüedades siendo gradualmente tamizadas y el debut de los trenes de combustión interna y luego los trenes eléctricos. «Todos estamos electrificados ahora.»

En las últimas décadas, la tecnología de trenes de China es totalmente obsoleta. Su hijo y su nieto vieron acontecimientos más insondables. «Anteriormente en la sección Xining-Golmud, el tren corría a sólo unos 50 kilómetros por hora, pero ahora podía llegar a 160 kilómetros». señaló Li Haifeng.

Ahora China tiene la red ferroviaria de alta velocidad más grande del mundo, junto con métodos avanzados de inspección de las instalaciones y equipos en el tren.

«Hemos cambiado de trabajo manual pesado a trabajo mental, al igual que un médico en un hospital», dijo Li Xiujin, «Simplemente nos sentamos en el interior, vemos fotos tomadas por cámaras de alta velocidad e informamos de los problemas a los inspectores en el lugar con la ayuda de TFDS».

Para Li Haifeng, el trabajo es mucho menos laborioso, pero requiere más experiencia. El tren en el que trabaja tiene un filtro UV incorporado en su ventana, generadores de oxígeno y dispositivos automáticos de procesamiento de excrementos en medio de una variedad de nuevas instalaciones.

«Trabajar en el tren es difícil, ya que es necesario tener en cuenta la seguridad de todos los pasajeros. Es como ser un «médico» que sabe todo sobre el tren y da la receta correcta», dijo Li Haifeng.

DALLAS, Oct. 6, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Alternet Systems, Inc. (USOTC: ALYI) today announced the company anticipates finalizing details this week that will result in a major milestone event moving the company substantially forward toward realizing its electric mobility ecosystem vision.

ALYI has initiated its electric mobility focus first in Sub-Saharan Africa where per capita transportation infrastructure is substantially under resourced. The prevailing low per capita transportation infrastructure is ideal for technology leapfrog opportunities.

Instead of designing specific future products in an isolated lab, ALYI has designed a process to bring a community of stakeholders together with ALYI’s own design team to collectively contribute to the future of electric mobility in Sub-Saharan Africa and beyond.

To motivate and inspire collaboration in a rational electric mobility evolutionary process, ALYI has architected an annual electric mobility symposium and conference around an electric auto race as an anchor event.

The milestone anticipated this week represents a major step toward realizing the ultimate annual electric auto race event.  ALYI management is optimistic that the company will be able to make a revealing announcement next week shedding light on the magnitude of the company’s momentum toward introducing an all new and groundbreaking eclectic mobility ecosystem paradigm.

Charles M. Rice, virólogo de la Universidad Rockefeller, obtuvo el Premio Nobel por el aporte de sus investigaciones a la cura de la hepatitis C

NUEVA YORK, 6 de octubre de 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Charles M. Rice, un investigador dedicado a virus que generan enfermedades y a…

NUEVA YORK, 6 de octubre de 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Charles M. Rice, un investigador dedicado a virus que generan enfermedades y a la respuesta del sistema inmune, es el receptor del Premio Nobel de Fisiología o Medicina de este año, según anunció hoy la Fundación Nobel en Estocolmo, Suecia. Rice es el profesor Maurice R. and Corinne P. Greenberg en virología y responsable del Laboratorio de virología y enfermedades infecciosas. Comparte su premio con Harvey J. Alter de los Institutos Nacionales de Salud (NIH) y Michael Houghton de la Universidad de Alberta.

La investigación de Rice contribuyó directamente a lograr la cura para la hepatitis C, una enfermedad agresiva que afecta a 170 millones de personas en todo el mundo. Su laboratorio estudió el virus durante tres décadas y se convirtió en el primero en producir una versión que se pudiera cultivar y estudiar en un laboratorio. Este gran paso, que involucró desarrollar una versión editada del genoma del virus que replica y produce las proteínas virales, condujo directamente a la creación de tres nuevas clases de fármacos para tratar la infección por hepatitis C. Los estudios han mostrado que una combinación de estos fármacos puede reducir la carga viral de la hepatitis C hasta niveles no detectables, con lo que efectivamente se cura la enfermedad.

«La hepatitis C, una enfermedad crónica que ha cobrado muchas vidas, ahora tiene cura. Con el tiempo, este avance médico salvará millones de vidas y mejorará muchas más, y esto es un resultado directo de la investigación de Charlie», afirma Richard P. Lifton, presidente de la Universidad Rockefeller. «Su trabajo con los virus, incluyendo el emblemático logro de crear cultivos de hepatitis C en el laboratorio, simboliza la misión de esta universidad a la perfección: la ciencia para el beneficio de la humanidad. Me emociona profundamente que haya sido reconocido con el Premio Nobel, el más grande honor en la ciencia».

Alter y Houghton originalmente clonaron el genoma del virus de la hepatitis C en 1989; fue un gran avance que permitió la identificación de las personas infectadas con el virus y la eliminación del virus de las reservas de sangre. Sin embargo, durante años fallaron los esfuerzos por propagar el virus en células hepáticas en el laboratorio, algo fundamental para avanzar en las investigaciones y desarrollar medicamentos. Rice demostró que la razón era la ausencia del extremo del genoma del virus, que era necesario para dar inicio a la replicación viral. Completó la caracterización del genoma viral en 1996 y un año más tarde logró producir un virus infeccioso en el laboratorio.

Luego desarrolló amplicones subgenómicos del virus que podían replicarse en células sin dar lugar a un virus vivo, lo que hizo posible desarrollar ensayos para hacer pruebas de fármacos capaces de inhibir directamente la replicación viral. Para el año 2013 el primero de estos fármacos, desarrollado con ayuda de la tecnología de Rice, recibió la aprobación de la FDA para su uso en pacientes. Hoy existen más opciones, y combinados pueden curar a la gran mayoría de las personas con hepatitis C luego de un tratamiento corto que prácticamente no presenta toxicidad.

Además, el grupo de Rice ha desarrollado métodos para hacer pruebas de factores que limitan la infección por hepatitis C, hepatitis B, gripe A, dengue, fiebre amarilla, Zika, chikungunya y coronavirus. En respuesta a la pandemia del COVID-19, Rice ha utilizado tecnología CRISPR para identificar nuevos objetivos para tratamientos del SARS-CoV-2, y ha adaptado técnicas desarrolladas durante su trabajo con la hepatitis C para analizar fármacos según su capacidad de inhibir al coronavirus, una tarea que se encuentra actualmente en curso.

Rice es el vigesimosexto científico asociado a la Universidad Rockefeller en ser reconocido con un Premio Nobel. Además de Rice, otros cuatro ganadores del Premio Nobel son miembros actuales del cuerpo docente de la Universidad Rockefeller: Michael W. Young (2017), Roderick MacKinnon (2003), Paul Nurse (2001) y Torsten Wiesel (1981).

Nacido en 1952 en Sacramento, California, Rice recibió su doctorado en bioquímica en 1981 del Instituto Tecnológico de California, donde permaneció como investigador posdoctoral de 1981 a 1985. Antes de unirse a Rockefeller en 2001, pasó 14 años en el cuerpo docente de la Facultad de Medicina de la Universidad de Washington. Es miembro de la Academia Nacional de Ciencias y ha recibido el Premio de Virología M.W. Beijerinck de 2007, el Premio Robert Koch de 2015, el Premio de Salud InBev-Baillet Latour de 2016 y el Premio a la Investigación Médica Lasker-DeBakey de 2016.

By parking site, off-street parking segment to record a higher growth rate during the forecast period

Off-street parking refers to parking facilities that are made available by parking operators in various areas, such as parking lots, garages, or private driveways in shopping malls, commercial buildings, hotels, and residential buildings. Off-street parking sites are highly effective in terms of vehicle holding capabilities and are generally controlled by commercial agencies. Off-street parking involves proper designing and construction to provide a safe and secure vehicle parking experience for drivers. The segment focuses on ensuring security, pre-booking of parking spots, and parking fee management. This segment has witnessed several innovations to enable efficient parking; for instance, nowadays, advanced garages are equipped with robotic valet systems that help in parking management. Off-street parking solutions are expected to experience a high growth rate due to the huge investments by authorities in multi-level parking, and also by the private sector in its parking facilities.
