omega tau science & engineering podcast - 285 – Superconductivity

285 – Superconductivity

06/08/18 • 170 min

Superconductivity, the ability of a material to carry electrical current with zero resistance, is a surprising property of nature, which man has been able to exploit in many ways, in particular, for high-performance magnets. Those are used in magnetic resonance imagers, but also in colliders and fusion reactors. In this episode we discuss the basics of superconductivity and its uses with Pierre Bauer, a superconductor engineer at ITER.

A few years ago, I interviewed Arjen Lucassen about his wonderful music and how he makes it; obviously, I am a big fan! Recently, his Ayreon universe was performed live on stage and I was blown away. I decided I had to talk the the guy behind the live shows, Joost van den Broek. Luckily he agreed. So I visited him in his studios and we talked about music production and arrangement in general, and specifically for the Ayreon live shows.

286 – Software Analog Effects

omega tau science & engineering podcast

play

06/21/18 • 124 min

Effects devices are essential for electric guitars and keyboards because they shape sound and make it interesting; many classic devices exist. However, those are rare and/or expensive, plus, even if they are not, carrying them around on a tour costs money. This is why these hardware devices are simulated in software, and distributed as plugins for audio software. Native Instruments is a manufacturer of such software analog effects packages. In this episode I chat with one of their engineers, Julian Parker, about how this software simulation of the electronic hardware is done.

02/07/18 • 483 min

In December 2017 I had the opportunity to spend a few days on board the Royal Navy's HMS Enterprise on her trip from Limassol, Cyprus to Valetta, Malta. HMS Enterprise is a survey ship, her primary task is to map the sea floor using sonar and feed the data into civilian and military maps. In this detailed episode, we chat about the ship, its mission, the survey equipment, the technical aspects of the propulsion and systems, plus about life on board a ship and nautical issues in general.

Im Februar war ich in Neuenstein bei Heilbronn bei Helix, die dort sieben AS 350 Écureuil betreiben. Sinn des Besuchs war es, einmal selbst einen Hubschrauber zu fliegen und Euch davon einen Eindruck zu vermitteln. Die Episode gliedert sich in drei Teile, alle drei mit Achim Widmann, Geschäftführer, Flugbetriebsleiter und Fluglehrer. Zunächst sprechen wir über einige Grundlagen der Helifliegerei. Dann folgt ein Intercom-Mitschnitt des Fluges. Im dritten Teil sprechen wir darüber, was Helix konkret mit den Hubschraubern im Rahmen von Arbeitseinsätzen tut.

Quantum Systems designs, builds and sells unmanned air vehicles for professional use. Their particular specialty is VTOL designs, i.e., UAVs that take off and land vertically, but then switch to airplane mode for airplane-like speed and range. In this episode we chat with Quantum's CEO Florian Seibel about their primary drone, the Tron. We focus on the motivation for developing the aircraft, the use cases, as well as design decisions and technical aspects.

Gast: Simon Kumm    Host: Nora Ludewig    Shownoter: Pascal Becker

Schon in unserer Episode zur Stahlherstellung hatten wir Berührungspunkte mit dem Thema feuerfest, und nun konnte ich durch unseren Hörer Simon Kumm von InspecDrone mehr dazu erfahren. Ein Thema, dem wir in unserem Alltag zwar nicht dauernd unmittelbar begegnen, ohne das aber viele moderne Prozesse von der Müllverbrennung über die Stromerzeugung bis eben hin zur Stahlerzeugung oft nicht denkbar wären.
