🔧 Fully Rebuilt: 1900s Wooden Bowling Arm Bowled Victor Trumper! 🏏 Engineers at Cambridge have successfully reconstructed one of the world’s oldest known bowling machines, which famously bowled out legendary Australian batsman Victor Trumper. Dr. John Venn, the inventor of the Venn Diagram, created this engineering contraption. 🔍 Key Insights: 1️⃣ A Historical Masterpiece: Using patent illustrations and an old photograph found online, Cambridge engineers brought the 2-metre tall contraption back to life with materials available over 120 years ago. This remarkable reconstruction showcases the ingenuity and craftsmanship of the early 20th century. 2️⃣ Engineering and Innovation: Led by Professor Hugh Hunt, the project highlights the incredible creativity of Dr. John Venn. Known for his work on Venn Diagrams, Venn also invented this fascinating bowling machine using wood, string, and mathematical principles. 3️⃣ Authentic Recreation: The team meticulously crafted the machine to ensure historical accuracy, utilising high-quality hardwood and traditional woodworking techniques. The final product, capable of bowling at 33mph (53km/h), is a functional device and a historical relic. 🔗 Explore the full story of the reconstructed bowling machine and its historical significance: https://lnkd.in/grRvfVba 🗣️ #questionforgroup: How can historical reconstructions like this bowling machine inspire modern engineering and innovation? 💬 Join the conversation on the fascinating blend of history and technology that brings past innovations to life. #cricket #engineering #venndiagram #cambridge #innovation #woodcentral #sports #crickethistory #woodcentralau1

🥇 This story exemplifies the importance of a great strategy and the advantages of being a first mover. Competitors usually start off slow in this speed skating event and then speed up at the end, but Yang decided to race ahead of the pack early. Just like this teen speed skater that took the gold, the REBEL Concrete Sensor is setting new standards for first movers in the construction industry. 🚀 You can keep doing things the old way, waiting for cylinder break results 🕒, or you can accelerate your jobs with the REBEL sensor. 📊 The REBEL concrete strength sensor is the only solution that gives you real-time, continuous, in-place concrete strength data (without requiring cylinder breaks or maturity curves). The REBEL allows for faster form removal, waterproofing, and project completion. Being ahead of the curve truly pays off—both on the ice and on the construction site. Now Available at White Cap. #FirstMoverAdvantage #ConstructionInnovation #SpeedSkating #RealTimeData #Wavelogix #REBELSensor #ProjectManagement --- Thoughts on first mover advantages?

When your aim is to take "ELEVATING" to an entirely new level

🏊 Olympics 2024 in Paris: high media coverage for La Défense Arena, transformed into an olympic swimming pool. Incide Engineering helped design Europe's largest indoor arena, a multi-purpose building with 13 kilometres of bleachers, a 5,500-tonne structure and 28,632 square metres of courts. The facility has already hosted two million spectators. In particular, Incide realised and coordinated: 📌 the design of the steel structures supporting the roof 📌 their erection 📌 the operational management on site 📌 the site management of supply and assembly operations 📌 the drafting of safety plans for the erection phases 📌 the drafting of the construction dossiers for all the works necessary for the lifting stages Incide worked directly with the major players in the carpentry and erection sector, meeting the customer's requirements and finding solutions in line with the needs of the companies involved, respecting site safety and international standards: a complex project, full of interactions with major European companies and with an excellent final result.

We've been thinking about diagrams. We are firm believers in the necessity of being able to distill a project into a simple clear diagram. For example, in the Media Pavilion, there is an incredibly rich and complex set of functional and technical needs. These are accommodated within the clear conceptual diagram developed in the early stages, giving the building legibility and an easily understood layout. The clear diagram can be understood in the use and experience of the finished building. Clear diagram = clear building #Diagrams #DesignProcess #Architecture #Sport #Media #Tennis #Wimbledon

Swim caps used to be just two thin pieces of silicone or latex fused together, shaped like a bowling ball, and one-size-fits-all. But technological advances in materials and construction have made swim caps far more functional. How significant are these advances and what's in it for you? https://zurl.co/43uw

It's the vertical protrusion that makes SwimFin so unique, innovative and beneficial as far as swimming aids go! This patented design offers as much or as little buoyancy as and when required, without having to inflate, deflate, add or remove additional support. Allowing natural, unrestricted movement in the water. The fun shape and colours appeal to children of all ages and abilities and enhances a desire to explore the water in a creative and safe manner. Incorporating the psychological and scientific principles applied when leaning to swim, the profile design has many other benefits for further stroke development and improvement. A truly multi functional piece of teaching apparatus with a 'proven' track record when it comes to teaching children (and adults) to be safer in the water in a fraction of the time.
