Green Corridor at Fengshan District 🇹🇼 (2023-07) {aerial}
Views of a section of the Green Corridor that was created by putting the Taiwan Railway Administration railway line underground in 2018. Kaohsiung's underground railway line is 15.37 km long, and the project has transformed three ground-level stations (Zuoying, Kaohsiung and Fongshan) into underground train stations. At the same time, seven new underground stations (Neiwei, Museum of Fine Arts, Gushan, Sankuaicuo, Minzu, Science and Technology Museum, and Zhengyi) have been added. The former railway tracks have been converted into a linear park with bike and pedestrian paths. The rail line is used to connect the different parts of the city in a sustainable way by creating a green corridor for biodiversity and including bike/pedestrian lanes to better cater for the needs of the community. Within this linear site, the sustainable development included urban regeneration, public participation, historic preservation, green and water resources, and circulation routes for pedestrians and bikes. Footage covers the Green Corridor approximately from Fongshan Station to Chengqing Road, Fengshan District, Kaohsiung City.

Solar Wind Hydro Power 🇹🇼 (2023-06) {aerial}
Law of conservation of energy:
In physics and chemistry, the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant; it is said to be conserved over time. Energy can neither be created nor destroyed; rather, it can only be transformed or transferred from one form to another.
Electricity generation:
Several methods do exist to convert other forms of energy into electrical energy. Exactly the same amount of electricity must be generated as is used at any given moment (i. e. production and consumption of electricity must always be equal). Grid stability has to be kept in mind when utilizing volatile sources of electricity generation. Taiwan has to be autonomous regarding electricity generation as there is no connection to a grid abroad.
General remarks:
Energy has no color. Hydrogen itself has no color. Energy is not renewable.

Giant Spherical Bearing 🇨🇳 (2017-06)
Impressions from a large size spherical bearing
The temporary bearing is being used to rotate a bridge during its construction. It is at a railway bridge construction site. A large bearing is being lifted by a mobile crane. Precisely, the calotte is being hoisted by a mobile crane. It is part of a temporary spherical bearing. The bearing is used for the swivel construction method of a cast-in-place railway bridge, which is part of a new high-speed railway line in China. The new line has to pass over existing railway lines and highways in the area of Shangqiu City.
Bridge swivel construction refers to a construction method in which the bridge structure is built at a temporary axis alignment and then positioned in the final location by swivel action. The swivel construction method can reduce dangers to an operational railway line/highway through building a bridge superstructure at the side of the existing line (railway, highway). Dangers of falling objects and interference with train operation during the construction process can be vastly reduced. The actual rotation process takes only a short period of time.
On top of the foundation of the bridge pier a spherical bearing is placed and the pier construction continues afterwards on top of the bearing. The (upper) spherical part (calotte) of the bearing is placed on the lower concave counterpart at site. The void in the calotte has to meet the center pin of the lower part. Then it can be completely lowered down. To reduce friction PTFE elements and grease are used in combination with a very smooth surface of the calotte. The bridge superstructure will be built using the balanced cantilever method (in this case). The bridge construction does not interfere with the train operation of the existing electrified railway. Once the bridge pier and superstructure have been build the bridge will be rotated to its final alignment around a vertical axis. Then the moving function of the bearing is no longer needed. A permanent rigid connection between bridge pier and foundation is being established then. The two parts of the bridge superstructure will be stitched together once the final position is reached.
Details of the parts of the (temporary) spherical bearing and adjacent structural members are shown in this video. The footage covers various locations (i. e. different bridges). The spherical bearing is arriving at site by truck. Then the lower part of the bearing is placed on the pile cap of the bridge pier. It is going to be surrounded by reinforced concrete. The calotte of the bearing gets temporarily stored at site. The same happens to temporary sand pot bearings. They are needed for additional support of the bridge during construction. The concave part of the bearing is lubricated with grease. PTFE elements that work as sliding elements in contact with the calotte are placed into machined recesses. A thick grease layer on the lower bearing part covers the PTFE elements as well. On top of the spherical bearing bridge pier construction continues. Post-tensioned concrete member (pier base) follows on top of the spherical bearing. It is cast on a scaffolding. Starter bars from pier foundation and pier base will be connected after rotation process. Concrete anchor points for the hydraulic jacks that pull strands horizontally to achieve the rotation of the pier will be prepared. Pre-rotation situation: The bridge superstructure is aligned roughly parallel to the existing railway line. Due to balanced cantilever construction method there is a temporarily rigid connection between bridge superstructure and pier. Monitoring of the achieved rotation angle between foundation and pier is done via a large scale placed on the structure. After rotation a rigid connection is being created to permanently block the spherical bearing and to allow for transfer of the forces from the pier to the foundation. A monolithic connection is achieved. The newly aligned bridge superstructures need to be connected by a closure segment in the center of the bridge.

North Signal Box of Kaohsiung Port Station 🇹🇼 (2023-04)
North Signal Box (notes from the official leaflet)
高雄港車站 北號誌樓
The Core Value of North Signal Box (NSB)
The most essential and complicated function of NSB is to achieve the "signal-signal", "signal-turnout", "turnout-turnout" interlocking. Wit the interlocking bed ensuring the coordination between levers, levers can in turn "remote control" the turnouts and signals in electrical and mechanical ways so as to coordinate operations of these devices. Before radio was available, the employees could also control and monitor the train dispatching by using the yard inter-phone.
NSB
The air traffic control tower directs takeoff and landing of aircraft, and the lighthouse guides ships to safety, while the signal box is the hub of train dispatching. Through sophisticated mechanical interlocking, the signal box controls the switches on the distant ground to ensure the efficient and safe operation of train arrivals and departures at the station.
During Japanese Colonial Era, signal boxes could be found at various larger train stations with complicated tracks layout, but as of today, only four of them are preserved. Among them, NSB of Kaohsiung Port Station, a two-story modest structure, has been left intact by chance, as passenger trains do not go through this station and, therefore, modernization has not been necessary. Now it is the only signal box in Taiwan with a complete interlocking system and operational capability.
The NSB was decommissioned in November 2008. Not only was the structure preserved at the original spot, but the equipment was also largely preserved, including the mechanical lever, the electric lever, interlocking bed, the electric locked box, display board, the electric tablet block instrument, the yard inter-phone, and the mechanical interlocking system connected to the signal box, iron bars connected to the switches, and other related mechanical instruments. For this preservation project, Kaohsiung Light Rail line near the site was also redesigned. NSB is a beautiful demonstration of the cutting edge of mechanical technology in the late 19th century and the early 20th century.
NSB, along with the old train station house, was listed as a Kaohsiung historic site named Takao Railway Station in July 2010, and was further incorporated into the cultural landscape "Kaohsiung Port Station and Old Harbor Area - Railway Tracks and Architecture Group" in 2018.
1st Floor Employee Break Room
To the south of the machine room was an employee break room, which was a later addition to the building out of the necessity of a space for the on-duty staff to take a break and get ready for next shift.
1st Floor Machine Room
The iron bars connected to the levers travel downward through the floor to this machine room, turn horizontal, closely parallel to the ground floor, then pass through the front wall bottom to outside the house, and eventually connect to various switches to control the turnouts around the station.
2nd Floor Balcony
All four walls of the 2nd floor are installed with continuous large sliding windows with the glass windowpanes offering greater penetration of natural light. There are doors open to the east and the south, so that the employees could step outside onto the balcony to observe the operations at the station, and to use flag signals to direct train dispatching.
2nd Floor Operations Control Room
The second floor, whose floor, walls and roof are made of wood, is an open space office without any partition walls. In the north part of the room are the switch levers, signal levers, and the interlocking bed which coordinates all the levers. All these are linked to the machine room down below. Above the levers is the display board, which shows the service status of each switch. The south part used to be the working space, equipped with things such as the electric tablet block instrument linked to Qianzhen Depot, train approaching warning system, and the switchboard of yard inter-phones.
Exhibition Area
1. Daily Duties of Signal Box Staff
Employee break room, located on the first floor of NSB, was where the staff took a break. The interview video clips broadcast here focus on the daily routines of the staff, and the instruments they used plus their mechanism.
2. Past Glories of NSB
The second floor of NSB has been restored to the former state and now houses precious artifacts that show its cultural heritage value. This area exhibits the preserved artifacts, supplemented with a building model, and AR technology, giving the visitors a glimpse into the past glories of trains arriving at and departing from Kaohsiung Port Station.
3. NSB - Workmanship of the Times
The mechanism of railways and the signal box is further illustrated through images, graphics, texts, as well as animations.

Kaohsiung Light Rail 環狀輕軌 construction progress [episode 07] 🇹🇼 (2023-03) {aerial}
Footage covers a section of the northern and eastern parts of phase II of the LRT line that is currently in parts under construction at Zuoying District, Sanming District, Lingya District, Kaohsiung City, Taiwan. The track follows for some six kilometers Dashun Road from Boai Road intersection to Kaisyuan Park. Views along the alignment include C25 Sin-shan Elementary School 新上國小, C26 Wanzihnei 灣仔內, C27 Dingshan Street 鼎山街, C28 Kaohsiung Industrial High School 高雄高工, C29 Shu-Te Home Economics & Commercial High School 樹德家商, C30 Science and Technology Museum 科工館, and C31 St. Joseph Hospital 聖功醫院 stations.
Works on this section of the line are very demanding. Dashun Road is a very busy road. Space for the construction site is very limited in some areas. Many level crossings have to be built at busy intersections with other major roads. Existing utility pipes and lines have to be adjusted. Large rain trees on the median have to be handled carefully; some have to be relocated to other locations in the city. The Love River crossing is another area of particular attention.
Filming was carried out in February and March 2023.

MyZeil Shopping Mall 🇩🇪 (2022-08) {slideshow}
Views of the MyZeil shopping center in Frankfurt am Main, Hesse, Germany.
MyZeil is a shopping center located in the downtown area of Frankfurt am Main, Germany. It is part of the Palaisquartier building complex and serves as the entrance to the Zeil shopping street. The center was officially opened on February 26, 2009, by the then-mayor of Frankfurt, Petra Roth.
The MyZeil building has six floors and features the longest freestanding indoor escalator in Europe, measuring 42 meters. The entire complex is covered by a structure made up of around 3,200 triangular glass elements and has a gross floor area of 77,000 square meters, with approximately 52,000 square meters dedicated to retail space in the lower three levels. The anchor tenants include a REWE supermarket (groceries) located in the basement, Anson's Herrenhaus (men's clothing retailer with leading fashion labels) spread over three levels, and Saturn (electronics and home appliances) occupying 7,500 square meters on the third and fourth floors. The upper levels contain a "Gastro-Boulevard" with restaurants, a Fitness First club with a high-altitude swimming pool, and a play and childcare area for children.
MyZeil was designed by architect Massimiliano Fuksas from Rome, with the structural design of the steel and glass construction handled by the engineering firm Knippers Helbig from Stuttgart. Rainwater from the nearly 6,000 square meters of roof surface is collected, cleaned, and reused in the building's water system. The construction design has some weaknesses, such as the need to protect the main entrance from falling ice and snow in winter, which led to the installation of a fixed roof over the entrance in 2013.
The shopping center has a large parking garage with 1,390 spaces on four levels, 900 of which are available to the public. It is open continuously, including on Sundays and holidays. MyZeil is well-connected to transportation, with access via the Hauptwache train station and two subway stations. The center has a total of six levels, including a REWE supermarket and the entrance to the parking garage on the lower level. The largest Saturn store in Frankfurt occupies 7,500 square meters on the third and fourth floors.
