better-engine-combustion - Science
BUILDING A BETTER ENGINE Modern engine design relies on a variety of simulation software programs, including Reaction Design's ENERGICO, that model not just the engine itself but also the chemical reactions taking place within the engine.

Materiality
The MATERIALITY of ice:
Water freezes at a temperature below 0 °C under a pressure higher than 1 atm. This explains why a metal string moves through the ice block under pressure seeminglessly - and explains on a larger scale the movements of glaciers.
Water freezes at a temperature below 0 °C under a pressure higher than 1 atm. This explains why a metal string moves through the ice block under pressure seeminglessly - and explains on a larger scale the movements of glaciers.
The ice in the devided bit will again become once- similar to the effect of metal wealding - where 2 metal pieces can become ONE. Unlike timber which requires bolting, glueing etc together.
The process of building a timber boat - the different levels of treatment enabling the timber to shape a particular design,....until the moment - when all that energy is again being released - be it a boat travelling through the icelandscape and the ice ebabling the ship to eventually break.
The pressure of the ship onto the ice - the pressure of the ice onto the ship - the Dualistic relationship UNTIL one particular moment of time when one system collapses - the timber goes back to its original shape - after being heavily treated and bend in the process of boat construction,...............

behind the scenes
the system is only as strong as its weakest link:
A highly complex system logistically as well as mechanically enabling replacing a whole runway over a period of almost 1 year - 15 meters every night- bit by bit - at the second busiest airport in Europe Frankfurt/germany - when the asphalt has to dry 2 h before the first plane lands - and the building site in its traditional understanding - remains unnoticed ............
