South Dakota Highway 32 is a short state route located in east central South Dakota. Its eastern terminus is at South Dakota Highway 13 at Flandreau, and runs west to Interstate 29. It is 12 miles (19 kilometers) in length. This is the second usage of the South Dakota 32 identifier. The first South Dakota 32 was designated in the late 1940s. It began at South Dakota Highway 45 near Gann Valley, and ran east to U.S. Highway 81 east of Oldham. The west end was truncated to South Dakota Highway 25 in the early 1950s, and the remainder was deleted in the late 1960s. The segment between U.S. Highway 281 and South...

The predecessor Class 15 locomotives had one flaw, excessively long firetubes. When more were ordered, SAR chief mechanical engineer D.A. Hendrie improved the boiler by adding a combustion chamber and shortening the distance between tube plates from 21 ft 9 in (6.629 m) to 19 ft (5.791 m) in the process. These locomotives became the Class 15A and were built in ten batches by three...

Following the success of the Class 14, then Chief Mechanical Engineer D.A. Hendrie used the design as basis for a lighter locomotive for use on coastal lines. The second version of the Class 14 locomotive was ordered from the North British Locomotive Company in 1913. It had nearly 6 in (150 mm) less boiler diameter than the Class 14 to bring the axle loading down to 15 long tons (15 t), specifically for use on the lighter track on the East...

The South Pointing Chariot is widely regarded as one of the most complex geared mechanisms of the ancient Chinese civilization, and was continually used throughout the medieval period as well. It was supposedly invented sometime around 2600 BC in China by the Yellow Emperor, yet the first valid historical version was created by Ma Jun (c. 200-265 AD) of Cao Wei during the Three Kingdoms. The chariot is a two-wheeled vehicle upon which is a pointing figure connected to the wheels by means of differential gearing. Данное издание не является оригинальным.

The South Wales Gas Pipeline (also known as the Milford Haven pipeline) is the UK's largest high-pressure gas pipeline. The 197 mile (316 km) pipeline passing through Wales was built for the National Grid and links Dragon and South Hook liquid natural gas (LNG) terminals at Milford Haven, Pembrokeshire with the national gas network at Tirley, Gloucestershire.The pipeline was expected to cost around 700 million,and was, according to the National Grid, expected to transport around 20% of the gas needed to meet UK consumption in future. Construction of the pipeline was estimated to take approximately three years, aiming to end in October 2007....

The South African Navy can trace its official origins back to the SA Naval Service, which was established on 1 April 1922. The first ships acquired by the newly formed navy were HMSAS Protea (a hydrographic survey vessel), HMSAS Sonneblom and HMSAS Immortelle (both minesweeping trawlers). Unofficially, however, the SAN can trace its history even further back, to the Natal Naval Volunteers (NNV), which was formed in Durban on 30 April 1885 as well as to the Cape Naval Volunteers (CNV), which was formed in Cape Town in 1905. On 1 July 1913 these two units...

Twenty more were placed in service in 1921. The South African Class 16C 4-6-2 locomotive was designed by D.A. Hendrie, chief mechanical engineer of the SAR at the time, and built by the North British Locomotive Company in Glasgow, Scotland. They were identical to predecessors Class 16 and Class 16B in most respects, except that Hendrie had added a combustion chamber to the boiler, visible as an extension of the Belpaire firebox hump....

Ten locomotives were built by North British and delivered in 1914. They had plate frames, Walschaerts valve gear, Belpaire fireboxes without combustion chambers and were superheated. In order to reduce the weight on the trailing wheels, steel fireboxes were used. This...
