ALBERT EINSTEIN BIOGRAPHY

Albert Einstein was a German-born theoretical physicist who discovered the theory of general relativity, effecting a revolution in physics. For this achievement, Einstein is often regarded as the father of modern physics. He received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics "for his services to theoretical physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect".

Near the beginning of his career, Einstein thought that Newtonian mechanics was no longer enough to reconcile the laws of classical mechanics with the laws of the electromagnetic field. This led to the development of his special theory of relativity. He realized, however, that the principle of relativity could also be extended to gravitational fields, and with his subsequent theory of gravitation in 1916, he published a paper on the general theory of relativity. He continued to deal with problems of statistical mechanics and quantum theory, which led to his explanations of particle theory and the motion of molecules. He also investigated the thermal properties of light which laid the foundation of the photon theory of light. In 1917, Einstein applied the general theory of relativity to model the structure of the universe as a whole.

He was visiting the United States when Hitler came to power in 1933, and did not go back to Germany, where he had been a professor at the Berlin Academy of Sciences. He settled in the U.S., becoming a citizen in 1940. On the eve of World War II, he helped alert President Franklin D. Roosevelt that Germany might be developing an atomic weapon, and recommended that the U.S. begin similar research. Later, together with Bertrand Russell, Einstein signed the Russell–Einstein Manifesto, which highlighted the danger of nuclear weapons. Einstein taught physics at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton, New Jersey, until his death in 1955.

Official: Workers touched water with radiation 10,000 times normal

Tokyo (CNN) -- The water that three men were recently exposed to while working at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant had 10,000 times the amount of radiation typical for that location, Japan's nuclear and industrial safety agency official said Friday, adding that the high levels indicated the nuclear fuel inside the No. 3 reactor "is damaged."
Still, the incident raised further questions -- not just about the integrity of the reactor's core, which earlier was suspected to have suffered significant damage after this month's 9.0-magnitude earthquake and subsequent tsunami -- but also about the radiation control measures in place at the plant.
The workers were laying cables Thursday in the basement of the reactor's turbine building when they stepped in the water. It seeped into the ankle-height boots of two of the men, according to Tokyo Electric Power Company, which operates the plant.
Such liquid in this locale typically has been boiled and has low levels of radiation, Hidehiko Nishiyama of Japan's nuclear and industrial safety agency explained Friday.
The high radiation measure prompted a top official with Nishiyama's agency to contact authorities with the Tokyo Electric Power Company to urge that company to "improve its radiation management measures."
Experts said Thursday that the outlook for two workers hospitalized after stepping in contaminated water should be good.
Those two men, one in his 30s and a second in his 20s, were taken to Fukushima Medical University Hospital, officials said. The third was not hospitalized, because his boots were higher and covered his skin, avoiding contact, according to Tokyo Electric.
Workers have been attempting to restore power at the Fukushima plant since a tsunami following a 9.0-magnitude earthquake March 11 knocked out electricity.
The workers were hospitalized because authorities suspected beta contamination, the company said. Beta radiation can penetrate skin to the layer where new skin cells are produced and can cause skin injury. Tokyo Electric said Friday they were still waiting to confirm whether beta contamination had taken place.
Measurements of the water's surface taken after the exposure showed it was about 400 millisieverts, the company said. The air measured about 200 millisieverts. Testing on the water continues, officials said. Tokyo Electric and Japan's Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency said Friday they did not know whether the water came from the tsunami or from water that has been pumped in to cool the reactor.
Japan's Health Ministry recently raised the maximum level of exposure for a person working to address the crisis at the nuclear plant from 100 millisieverts to 250 millisieverts per year. A person in an industrialized country is naturally exposed to 3 millisieverts a year.
If their exposure exceeds 250 millisieverts a year, workers will be prohibited from engaging in nuclear work, Edano said. "The situation differs from one case to another," he said, and labor laws also come into play when such cases are evaluated.
Decontamination will be a priority in treating the workers, said both Cox and Polanski. If radiation burns are present, they would be treated just like a regular burn, with a sterile dressing and antibiotics.
If burns are not present after a thorough washing, the workers' clothes would need to be checked for contamination, Cox said.

Tokyo Electric officials were asked why the workers did not evacuate the area amid rising radiation levels, as their dosimeters, which measure radiation exposure, are set to trigger an alarm when the level of 20 millisieverts is reached. Officials said that workers are told to leave, but ultimately it is their decision to do so.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

A project manager is a professional in the field of project management. Project managers have the responsibility of the planning, execution, and closing of any project, typically relating to construction industry, engineering, architecture, computing, or telecommunications. Many other fields in the production engineering and design engineering and heavy industrial also have project managers.

A project manager is the person accountable for accomplishing the project objectives. Key project management responsibilities include creating clear and attainable project objectives, building the project requirements, and managing the triple constraint for projects, which is cost, time, and scope.

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM

A circuit diagram (also known as an electrical diagram, elementary diagram, or electronic schematic) is a simplified conventional graphical representation of an electrical circuit. A design circuit diagram uses images of components, while a schematic diagram shows the components of the circuit as standard symbols; both types show the connections between the devices, including power and signal connections. The components interconnections on the diagram does not correspond to their physical locations in the finished device.

DIAGRAMA CIRCUITAL

Un diagrama circuital (también conocido como un diagrama eléctrico, diagrama elemental o esquemático electrónico) es una representación gráfica convencional simplificada de un circuito eléctrico. Un diseño de una diagrama circuital utiliza imágenes de componentes, mientras un diagrama esquemático muestra los componentes del circuito como símbolos estándar, ambos tipos muestras las conexiones entre los dispositivos, incluidas las conexiones de potencia y señal. Las interconexiones de los componentes en los diagramas no corresponden con su ubicación física en el dispositivo final.
