Technology Transfer in Germany When it comes to translating basic research into industrial success, few nations can match Germany. Since the 1940s, the nation’s vast industrial base has been fed with a constant stream of new ideas and expertise from science. And though German prosperity (繁荣) has faltered (衰退) over the past decade because of the huge cost of unifying east and west as well as the global economic decline, it still has an enviable (令人羡慕) record for mining ideas into profit. Much of the reason for that success is the Fraunhofer Society, a network of research institutes that exists solely to solve industrial problems and create sought-after technologies. But today the Fraunhofer institutes have competition. Universities are taking an ever larger role in technology transfer, and technology parks are springing up all over. These efforts are being complemented by the federal programs for pumping money into start-up companies. Such a strategy may sound like a recipe for economic success, but it is not without its critics. These people worry that favoring applied research will mean neglecting basic science, eventually starving industry of flesh ideas. If every scientist starts thinking like an entrepreneur (企业家), the argument goes, then the traditional principles of university research being curiosity-driven: free and widely available will suffer. Others claim that many of the programs to promote technology transfer are a waste of money because half the small businesses that are promoted are bound to go bankrupt within a few years. While this debate continues, new ideas flow at a steady rate from Germany’s research networks, which bear famous names such as Helmholtz, Max Planck and Leibniz. Yet it is the fourth network, the Fraunhofer Society, that plays the greatest role in technology transfer. Founded in 1949, the Fraunhofer Society is now Europe’s largest organization for applied technology, and has 59 institutes employing 12,000 people. It continues to grow. Last year it swallowed up the Heinrich Hertz Institute for Communication Technology in Bedim Today, there are even Fraunhofers in the US and Asia. The Frannhofer Society is the largest organization for applied technology in______.

(一) 其施工单位承建一项南方沿海城市的大型体育馆机电安装工程。合同工期为10个月,于2009年11月1O日开工,2010年9月10日竣工。 该工程特点是各类动力设备包括冷冻机组、水泵、集中空调机组、变配电装置等,均布置在有通风设施和排水设施的地下室。 由于南方沿海空气湿度大、昼夜温差大,夏天地下室结露严重,给焊接、电气调试、油漆、保温等作业的施工质量控制带来困难。 通风与空调系统的风管设计工作压力为1000Pa。项目部决定风管及部件在场外加工。 项目部制订的施工进度计划中,施工高峰期在6~8月,正值高温季节。根据地下室的环境条件和比赛大厅高空作业多的特点,需制订针对性施工技术措施,编制质检计划和重点部位的质量预控方案等,使工程施工顺利进行,确保工程质量。 在施工过程中,由于个别班组抢工期,在管理上出现工序质量失控,致使在试车阶段发生施工质量问题,如通风与空调系统进行单机和联动试车时,有两台风机出现震动大、噪声大,电动机端部发热等异常现象。经调查发现:风机的钢垫铁有移位和松动,电动机与风机的联轴器同轴度超差。 问题 为保证地下室管道焊接质量,针对环境条件编制质量预控方案。
