between a set of origins and destinations. However, these connections imply that the load unit needs to be changed, which is common for bulk transportation. It is clear that intermodalism couldn’t have been brought without the improvement of the technology and requires management units for freight as containers, pallets or semi-trailers. In the early 1930s, it took about 3 days to unload a railcar containing 13,000 cases of unpalletized goods. With the advent of pallets and forklifts, it could be

Frisch au Danemark, ils démontrèrent ensemble qu’il était possible de fragmenter un atome d’uranium. En 1939, ils décrivirent leur découverte dans un document demeuré célèbre qui s’intitule « Disintegration of Uranium by Neutrons. A New Type of Nuclear Reaction » et inventèrent le mot « fission » à cette occasion. dans le temps. Le temps de décroissance radioactive, mesuré par la période radioactive, varie selon les éléments.

Nuclear power plants built at Metsamor in the 1970s were closed following the 1988 Spitak Earthquake, though they sustained no damage. One of the two reactors was re-opened in 1995, but the Armenian government is under international pressure to close it due to concerns that the Soviet era design lacks important safeguards. Metsamor
