Chapter 819 Success or failure? At this moment!

At 13:30 local time in Eagle Country on December 21, at the headquarters of the European Meteorological Center, Director Mr. Figueiredo and Chief Scientist Professor Goldberg were accompanying several "sponsors" to inspect the research team.

The European Meteorological Center is an international scientific research institution. Although it provides medium-term weather forecast data to member states and charges a certain fee, the fees are not expensive and cannot cover daily expenses. Therefore, each member state will provide funds specifically to the European Meteorological Center every year. In addition,

If you encounter some large-scale scientific research projects, there will also be relevant "sponsors" to provide considerable research funds.

For example, this "European High-altitude Extreme Abnormal Airflow Disaster Response" project is related to the life and death of various European airlines, and is also related to the economic recovery of various countries. It has naturally attracted the attention of all parties, and funds are pouring in like water.

Because it has sufficient funds, the European Meteorological Center is waving money everywhere and inviting top experts and professors from famous universities and research institutes in Europe to participate in this project as foreign aid.

By the way, the per capita remuneration of these foreign aid experts and professors is 200,000 euros per month, which is equivalent to more than twice the usual monthly salary, and there will be a generous reward (at least 500,000 euros) for successfully achieving the project goal. And Qin Ke

He Ning Qingyun joined the team this time and served as the commander-in-chief, and they only received a symbolic remuneration of 200,000 euros - of course, they only joined for about ten days, which is three times that of ordinary expert professors in terms of cost-effectiveness.

.

The most valuable reward that Qin and Ke received was not money, but the European Meteorological Center's huge data on extreme and abnormal weather, and the free authorization to use the results of this collaborative research for the local aviation industry in Xia.

The "sponsors" who came to visit this time were mainly executives from several major European airlines, including Celerent Bosworth, general manager of German Airlines LH, Donny Stephens, president of British Airways BA,

Air France FA co-president Belius Aaron.

These executives don't know much about these scientific research matters. They only focus on one thing - whether the research results have come out and how effective they are.

"You are saying that so far, all the results, including mathematical models, written codes, and compiled beta software, are in the hands of the two commanders-in-chief of Xia State? Are you kidding me?" British Airways BA's

President Donnie Stephens asked with a somewhat displeased frown.

Mr. Figueiredo, Director of the European Meteorological Center, looked away unnaturally: "Yes, because the development work of mathematical modeling and software systems was completed by Academicians Qin and Ning in Xia Guoyuan with their teams...

…”

Professor Goldberg, the chief scientist next to him, saw that most of the airline executives looked unhappy, and hurriedly added: "The first version of the mathematical model sent by the two academicians is too complicated.

The mathematics professors shook their heads when they saw it, saying that if they didn't spend a month studying it, they wouldn't be able to offer any opinions at all. Considering the limited time, we entrusted all this work to Academician Qin and Academician Ning."

Celerente Bosworth, the general manager of German Airlines LH, is a German, but he has a very good impression of Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun, especially Qin Ke. When Qin Ke gave a report on the Riemann Hypothesis in Germany the year before last, he

He even went to listen to it. Although he couldn't understand what he understood, he was very fond of Qin Ke who could speak fluent German. He was surprised and said:

"Professor Goldberg, if I remember correctly, your team has invited top mathematics professors from various European universities, right? There seem to be more than ten people. So many people can't understand the mathematics of Academicians Qin and Academicians Ning.

Model?"

Professor Goldberg said helplessly: "It's not that I can't understand it, it's mainly that their mathematical model is too complicated. The professors said it would take at least a month or so to study it before they can figure it out."

"Oh my god, Academician Qin and Academician Ning are still so awesome." Salient Bosworth said with pride. After all, Qin Ke and Ning Qingjun are foreign academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and they also have close ties with the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Professor Koppett stood on the Nobel Prize podium together. In the hearts of the winners, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun are both relatively familiar "people".

"Even so, we shouldn't leave all the most important results in their hands." British Airways President Donny Stephens was still a little dissatisfied: "What if something unexpected happens to them? What about all the achievements during this period?"

Won’t all your hard work be in vain?”

Professor Goldberg explained: "We have video conferences every day these days, and we will also send our results to their mailboxes every day. This time it is really because the time is too short and we all have less sleep time every day.

It took less than six hours. It was really impossible to manage the data as well as normal project management, but I can guarantee that the level of these two academicians was very high. In these eight days, our team met several very good people.

Troublesome problems were finally solved through discussions with them and based on their suggestions. And so far, the progress of the project has been very smooth, almost entirely in accordance with the plan originally formulated by the two academicians.

The last meeting will be at 14:00, and before that, the two academicians will send over the final mathematical model and software system."

"14:00?" Air France co-president Belius Aaron looked down at his gold Rolex watch and said expressionlessly: "There are less than twenty minutes left. I hope they can send it in time.

"

Several senior executives heard that there had been no major progress in the past three months, but recently they suddenly said that practical results could be released within ten days, so they took the time to come over to verify. Unexpectedly, the situation was a bit unexpected. The most important results

All of them are actually in the hands of the two scientists from Xia State. They have been here all morning and haven't even seen the test version. How can they not be unhappy and feel uneasy?

No matter how famous Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun are, this research is directly related to the survival of several major airlines. Who is willing to pin all their hopes on two foreign scientists who are not at the scene?

On the other hand, Professor Holland next to him said confidently: "They will definitely send it before the meeting. In the past few days, they have never missed an appointment. No matter in terms of knowledge and academic level, research ability, character, credibility, academic

Morality, we are willing to trust them. They are the best partners I have ever seen."

These days, Professor Holland has deeply realized how refreshing it is to do research with top-notch scientists. Every difficult question accumulated during the day will be solved in the video conference that night, and even ideas can be solved directly.

The answer can be solved by asking them to stay up late that night.

For example, Professor Holland once believed that the problem of multiple internal structure asymmetries of guided airflow cannot be solved. This is one of the important indicators of whether ordinary airflow will evolve into a strong chaotic airflow. It is one of the unsolved problems in current weather forecasting.

However, after Qin Ke and his colleagues established a double-layered framework of mathematics and physics, they structured and parameterized the intensity of each air flow inside the air flow, and added a variable system of initial field conditions and momentum, and a variable system of initial field conditions and momentum was formed.

It has developed a uniform unstable curve equation that can be continuously and automatically adjusted according to the input data, thus providing a good model of the change of the guided air flow!

This amazed dozens of meteorological experts, including Professor Holland.

Similar situations occurred repeatedly, which finally made them identify and trust Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun from the bottom of their hearts.

Seeing Professor Holland's expression of blind admiration, the executives of all the airlines couldn't help but exchange glances. They all knew Professor Holland, the famous meteorological master. Although Professor Holland was not an arrogant person,

Although he is one of the famous experts in the European meteorological community, he has never praised other experts so highly on any occasion.

While the executives were whispering, Professor Goldberg's assistant trotted over excitedly and said something to Professor Goldberg. Professor Goldberg's eyes lit up and he turned around and said happily:

"Everyone, Academician Qin has just sent the final mathematical model and the developed software system to my email. Next, Professor Holland and I will be away for about ten minutes, and we will also need to complete the meteorological data collection interface.

Bind this software system and install it on a supercomputer, so that we can deduce the occurrence probability of extreme abnormal airflow at high altitudes based on the latest real-time data."

The executives suddenly became agitated. Regardless of whether they trusted the two Xia scientists or not, they sincerely hoped that the research team in front of them could solve this major problem that would affect the survival of the entire European aviation industry.

Accompanied by Mr. Figueiredo, Director of the Meteorological Center, executives from various airlines arrived in the conference room. The originally delicious coffee now became bland. Everyone just looked at the watch on their wrists from time to time, or looked at the conference room.

outdoor.

Through the open door, you can see various researchers in white coats outside who are busy nervously and excitedly. It was not until 13:58 that Professor Goldberg hurriedly walked into the conference room with more than a hundred researchers and sat down.

, and the giant-screen TV hanging on the wall in front of the conference room has been turned on, showing that the video conference is being connected.

In less than 20 seconds, the video was connected, and the figures of two young Xia scientists were displayed on the huge 100-inch screen.

Even though many airline executives may not know these two people, as long as you pay attention to the Internet, you will be able to recognize these two young boys and girls who are not yet twenty years old. They are the hottest people in the world right now.

Top mathematicians and scientists, Academician Qin Ke and Academician Ning Qingyun.

Obviously both of them were just wearing casual home clothes, and the background seemed to be in the study room of his home, but more than a hundred researchers and foreign aid experts, including Professor Goldberg, actually stood up together to show their respect.

In a friendly and respectful tone, he said hello in English: "How do you do, Academician Qin? How do you do, Academician Ning?"

This made many executives feel shocked again. Scientists will only identify with scientists who are stronger than themselves, and will not blindly respect them because of their reputation or awards, especially when there are huge differences in nationality and skin color.

situation.

To be able to gain such high recognition in less than ten days, are these two young Xia scientists really so amazing?

All the executives couldn't help but feel a little more confident and curious about the outcome of the following meeting.

"Hello everyone." Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun in the video also stood up and returned the greeting, and then got straight to the point: "Professor Goldberg, has the software system completed the interface connection?"

"Yes, I just tested it and can successfully collect real-time data of our weather system."

"Okay, let's start the trial run."

Professor Goldberg nodded and immediately asked the staff to share the supercomputer screen where the software system called "European High Altitude Extreme Abnormal Airflow Warning and Flight Avoidance Route System v1.0" was installed.

Yes, because the amount of data involved was too large and required a lot of computing power, after team discussion, it was finally decided to use the meteorological center’s supercomputer to install and run this software system. For this reason, Qin Ke also specially modified the program.

Make it possible to run on supercomputers.

When everyone saw the staff clicking the "Start Operation" button, they subconsciously held their breath, and some nervous people even clenched their fists.

Because time is so tight, the development of the entire software system is based on the original historical data, and has never been tested on real-time data. It is also the first time to run on a supercomputer. Will there be bugs or any surprises?

As a result, the operation failed and everyone felt unsure.

More than a hundred people have worked almost all night long in the past ten days. The hard work and sweat they put in must be verified by this moment.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But now all the work has been completed, and all that is left is to wait.

Although Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun were extremely confident, there were beads of sweat on their palms at this time.

Everyone stared closely at the screen. Obviously they could only see countless data streams flashing at extremely fast speeds, but everyone seemed to see the data turning into a torrent, following the extremely complex and sophisticated mathematical model, and

Go through the difficult mathematical formulas one after another, constantly get the answers, and then substitute them into new formulas.

Physics, mathematics, and computers...the three disciplines are closely connected at this moment, moving towards a common deduction goal.

Because the amount of data received in real time is too large, and data transmission and initialization also take time, the software system ran for nearly 30 seconds before prompting to enter the fully automatic operation mode and displaying the airspace map of the entire Europe.

"The procedures are all normal. We are currently monitoring changes in airflow in European airspace, and will complete the deduction and early warning of high-altitude extreme abnormal airflow disasters across Europe within 5 minutes..."

Seeing this line of English prompts displayed on the screen, everyone burst into excited cheers after a brief silence.

The software system runs smoothly, and at least their first step is successful!

Even though it will take five minutes to know whether the early warning system is actually effective, this does not prevent the researchers from cheering excitedly!

Because this is the first time it has been put into actual combat without testing, and it has been successful! Its significance is equivalent to building an airplane just by looking at the drawings, and then successfully flying it without wind tunnel testing!

How could this not be a great encouragement to everyone who was always worried and extremely nervous?

A group of researchers even saw the strong ability of the two commanders-in-chief, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun, to control this project!

Such a difficult first step was successful, and the probability of subsequent success is undoubtedly extremely high!

Just when everyone was smiling, a warning message suddenly popped up on the interface of the software system:

"Red disaster warning alert! Red disaster warning alert! According to real-time data deduction, the coordinates are 50°32' north latitude - 0.3°11' east longitude. There will be a 97% probability of an extreme high-altitude anomaly with a hazard level of 8 in 27 minutes.

The airflow affects a height of between 19,500 feet and 27,000 feet, with a cross-sectional radius of about 16,500 feet!"
