Class D7 (formerly Class A (anthracite), pre-1895) on the Pennsylvania Railroad was a class of 4-4-0 steam locomotive.[4] Fifty-eight were built by the PRR's Altoona Works (now owned by Norfolk Southern) between 1882–1891 with 68 in (1.73 m) drivers, while sixty-one of class D7a were constructed with 62 in (1.57 m) drivers.[1]

The D7 was fundamentally an anthracite-burning version of the PRR D6, with a larger fire-grate in order to burn the slower-burning, harder coal.[5]

Concave function

Negative of a convex function In mathematics, a concave function is one for which the value at any convex combination of elements in the domain is greater than or equal to the convex combination of the values at the endpoints. Equivalently, a concave function is any function for which the hypograph is convex. The class of concave functions is in a sense the opposite of the class of convex functions. A concave function is also synonymously called concave downwards, concave down, convex upwards...

Nitrogen fixation

Conversion of molecular nitrogen into biologically accessible nitrogen compounds Nitrogen fixation is a chemical process by which molecular dinitrogen (N2) is converted into ammonia (NH3).[1] It occurs both biologically and abiologically in chemical industries. Biological nitrogen fixation or diazotrophy is catalyzed by enzymes called nitrogenases.[2] These enzyme complexes are encoded by the Nif genes (or Nif homologs) and contain iron, often with a second metal (usually moly...
