For years, electronics contract manufacturers have flocked to Chinese cities including Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Suzhou, Wuxi and Beijing to maximise their revenues and minimize their costs.
Accordingly, iSuppli Corp. projects that 52.4 per cent of all contract-manufacturing revenues were generated by companies operating in China, including Foxconn, Flextronics, Quanta and Compal.
However, a new hot spot has emerged in electronics manufacturing: south-east Asia, namely Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and — most prominently — Vietnam. |

Siemens Industrial Solutions and Services Group (I&S) has equipped a 19-kilometer-long conveyor belt system with drive systems for Alcoa Inc., based in Texas (USA). The Siemens systems offer precise methods of control, can be quickly and flexibly adapted to different loads and are highly energy-efficient.
Alcoa is a leading producer of aluminum. The mill in Rockdale, Texas, needs a constant supply of brown coal for energy to maintain production around the clock. For this purpose, a conveyor belt system transports the necessary coal from the Three Oaks Mine to Rockdale, a distance of 32 kilometers. |

All of us know the effects of the mysterious force called gravity. However, the question 'what is gravity' is not easy to answer at all. The reason is that we don't really understand what this force actually is (if it is a force at all). This non-technical article answers the question up to the current well-proven classical understanding of the physics behind gravity. It deals with the evolution of classical gravity theory by Kepler, Newton and Einstein, but stops short of the current developments in quantum gravity. |
