Grand Tourer Injection
A Grand Tourer Injection (from Italian ''Gran Turismo Iniezione'') - abbreviated to GTI or GTi - is a fuel-injection car model variant. Traditionally used for grand tourer cars, the term is now applied to various hot hatchbacks, even though they do not have the luxury traditionally associated with grand tourers. The 1961 Maserati 3500 GTi is the first car to use the GTI name that was later made famous in 1976 with the Volkswagen Golf GTI and also by the Peugeot 205 GTi launched in 1984. Examples GTI models include: * Audi Fox GTi B1 (North America) * Chevrolet Aveo GTi T200/250 (Colombia) *Citroën AX GTI *Citroën BX GTI *Citroën CX GTI *Citroën Visa GTI *Dacia Nova GTI * Daewoo Racer GTi * Daihatsu Charade GTI G201 (Europe) * Ford Escort GTi Mk6 (Europe) * Honda Civic GTI EF/EG (New Zealand) *Isuzu Gemini GTI 16V JT190 (Europe) *Lada 110/111/112 GTi *Lada Kalina GTi (prototype) * Maserati 3500 GTI *Maserati Sebring 3500/3700/4000 GTI * Mazda 323 GTi BF/BG (Finland/United K ...

Global Tiger Initiative
The tiger is an iconic species. Tiger conservation attempts to prevent the animal from becoming extinct and preserving its natural habitat. This is one of the main objectives of the international animal conservation community. The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) has played a crucial role in improving international efforts for tiger conservation. CITES CITES is an international governance network employing tools and measures which adapt and become more efficient with time.Dickson, B. (2002). International conservation treaties, poverty and development: The case of CITES. ODI Natural Resource Perspectives, 74(January), 4. One measure specifically aimed at protecting the tiger is visible in the network’s efforts to ban the trade of tigers or tiger derivatives. CITES members have agreed to adhere to this international trade ban; once a member states ratifies and implements CITES it bans such trade within its national borders. ...

Gires–Tournois Etalon
In optics, a Gires–Tournois etalon is a transparent plate with two reflecting surfaces, one of which has very high reflectivity, ideally unity. Due to multiple-beam interference, light incident on a Gires–Tournois etalon is (almost) completely reflected, but has an effective phase shift that depends strongly on the wavelength of the light. The complex amplitude reflectivity of a Gires–Tournois etalon is given by :r=-\frac where ''r''1 is the complex amplitude reflectivity of the first surface, :\delta=\frac n t \cos \theta_t :''n'' is the index of refraction of the plate :''t'' is the thickness of the plate :''θt'' is the angle of refraction the light makes within the plate, and :''λ'' is the wavelength of the light in vacuum. Nonlinear effective phase shift Suppose that r_1 is real. Then , r, = 1, independent of \delta. This indicates that all the incident energy is reflected and intensity is uniform. However, the multiple reflection causes a nonlinear ph ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

GTI Mortsel
GTI Mortsel is a vocational secondary school in Mortsel, Belgium. History In 1960 the idea was suggested to start up a new secondary vocational school A vocational school is a type of educational institution, which, depending on the country, may refer to either secondary or post-secondary education designed to provide vocational education or technical skills required to complete the tasks ... in Mortsel. The idea was realised in very primitive circumstances in the Deurnestraat in 1962, comprising the departments: sanitary installations and interior decoration. The regular student number increased rapidly with the years from 39 in 1962 to 160 in 1967 and on 1 September 1965 mister A. Boon was appointed headmaster. As Mortsel became ‘a city’ in 2000 the school changed name. From now on the letters GTI stood for "Gesubsidieerd Technisch Instituut" ( state subsidized technical school). Today Currently as many as 500 pupils are being taught here on a daily basis and a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
GTI Club
''GTI Club'' is a racing video game, racing game originally released for the arcades in 1996 by Konami, on their new Cobra arcade board, which uses PowerPC-based hardware. In the original, the player raced around the Côte d'Azur and could choose from 5 rally cars including a Mini Cooper and Renault 5 Alpine Turbo. The game allowed free-roaming of the environment, which was revolutionary for the time, and contained several semi-hidden shortcuts that could be used to reduce lap times. A handbrake is provided which the player is encouraged to use to perform handbrake turns round sharp corners. Series ''GTI Club: Rally Côte d'Azur'' (Arcade, September 1996) ''GTI Club: Corso Italiano'' (Arcade, July 2000) The first sequel (ＧＴＩクラブ・コルソイタリアーノ) released in 2000, it was published overseas in 2001 as ''GTI Club 2'' and ''Driving Party''.

Grid-tie Inverter
A grid-tie inverter converts direct current (DC) into an alternating current (AC) suitable for injecting into an electrical power grid, normally 120 V RMS at 60 Hz or 240 V RMS at 50 Hz. Grid-tie inverters are used between local electrical power generators: solar panel, wind turbine, hydro-electric, and the grid. To inject electrical power efficiently and safely into the grid, grid-tie inverters must accurately match the voltage, frequency and phase of the grid sine wave AC waveform. Payment for injected power Electricity companies, in some countries, pay for electrical power that is injected into the electricity utility grid. Payment is arranged in several ways. With net metering the electricity company pays for the net power injected into the grid, as recorded by a meter in the customer's premises. For example, a customer may consume 400 kilowatt-hours over a month and may return 500 kilowatt-hours to the grid in the same month. In this case the electricity company wo ...

Global Terrorism Index
The Global Terrorism Index (GTI) is a report published annually by the Institute for Economics and Peace (IEP), and was developed by IT entrepreneur and IEP's founder Steve Killelea. The index provides a comprehensive summary of the key global trends and patterns in terrorism since 2000. It is an attempt to systematically rank the nations of the world according to Terrorism, terrorist activity. The index combines a number of factors associated with terrorist attacks to build an explicit picture of the impact of terrorism, illustrating trends, and providing a data series for analysis by researchers and policymakers. It produces a composite score in order to provide an ordinal ranking of countries on the impact of terrorism. The GTI is based on data from the Global Terrorism Database (GTD) which is collected and collated by the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism (START) at the University of Maryland. The GTD has codified over 190,000 cases of ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Maserati 3500
The Maserati 3500 GT (''Tipo 101'') and the Maserati 3500 GT Spyder (''Tipo 101/C'') are 2-door coupé and convertible grand tourers made by Italian car manufacturer Maserati between 1957 and 1964. It was a seminal vehicle for Maserati as the company's first successful attempt at the Gran Turismo market and series production. History Background In the early 1950s Maserati had achieved racing success and international visibility, thanks to cars such as the A6GCM; its 2-litre, twin cam inline-six engine had already been enlarged to three litre capacity on the Maserati 300S. Chief engineer Giulio Alfieri felt the next step was to design an all-new 3.5-litre engine; the resulting long-stroke six, designed foremost for endurance racing on the Maserati 350S, was ready in 1955. In the meantime Maserati's first forays into the grand tourer market, the 1947 A6 1500, 1951 A6G 2000 and 1954 A6G/54, had proven that the business was feasible; but the A6 road cars were still built in just a ...

Gerakan Tani Indonesia
Gerakan Tani Indonesia ('Indonesian Peasants Movement') was a peasants organization in Indonesia. It was politically linked to the Socialist Party of Indonesia (PSI). GTI was founded in September 1954. The socialists had previously worked alongside communists in the Barisan Tani Indonesia, but had split away from BTI in August 1954 in protest of communist dominance over the organization. At the time of its foundation, GTI claimed a membership of 1.5 million. It initially had 24 branches, but expanded to have 100 branches nationwide two years later. Wijono.
