FOREWORD

Aer Lingus has always been to the fore in Ireland inmaking advances in Science and Technology. Withfurther significant progress in recent years we arealso well to the fore among international airlines. Wehave bought the best new high technology aircraftto expand and renew our fleet as we cater for thetremendous growth in passenger numbers. Wehave recently installed an advanced 737 flightsimulator which brings Aer Lingus pilot training intothe 21st century and also provides training for otherairlines. Airmotive Ireland -ourjetengine overhaulsubsidiary has quickly established itself as a worldclass company. Devtec is engaged in productdesign and manufacture forthe aerospace industry,and Toptech Ireland a joint company with the ESBsupplies special processes to the computerindustry.

The airline's most recent and ambitious project isthe expansion of our Maintenance and Engineeringbusiness to take advantage of the upsurge in worldaviation. New hangers are being built at DublinAirport and 600 additional skilled people will berecruited to gear up a maintenance base which willservice aircraft from around the world.

Ireland is becoming a significant supplier ofservices and skills to the Aerospace industry andAer Lingus is at the centre of that development. Wewill continue to recruit large numbers of pilots andother skilled staff in the next decade to cater forgrowth in our main air transport and in ourengineering business.

Through our annual Young Scientists Exhibition weseek to stimulate interest in science and technologyand help create a pool of talented young peoplewho are comfortable with a hi-tech world choosingcareers accordingly. The key factor in Ireland'ssuccess in attracting international industries in newtechnologies to Ireland, has been the availability of ahighly educated young workforce.

The way in which the Young Scientists Exhibitionhas evolved would not have been possible withoutconsiderable and freely given assistance which AerLingus receives in organising the annual exhibition.I thank our many sponsors listed in this cataloguefor their generosity and practical help. In particular, Ithank the Taoiseach and the Minister for Scienceand Technology for the grant being made availablethough EOLAS - The Irish Science andTechnology Agency. Our thanks to theWestinghouse Corporation and to the EuropeanCommission office In Ireland, who sponsor our topwinners in international science fairs; and to theRDS for their co-operation and assistance.

A special tribute must be paid to the panel of judgeswho work closely with Aer Lingus in planning theexhibition and judging the projects. Their expertiseand dedication is the cornerstone of the exhibition.

A warm welcome to this year's exhibitors, theirteachers and their parents. Are Lingus is proud toprovide a platform for your endeavours and to givepublic recognition to the work you have done.

YOUNG SCIENTISTS OF EUROPEBritain, Denmark , France, Germany , Italy,Netherlands, Ireland.Location: Main Hall

Last year the Commission of the European Communitiesinaugurated a science contest for the top young scientists ofEurope. The contest, which was held in Brussels in October, wasset up to promote the ideals of co-operation and exchangebetween young scientists and to provide a stimulus for thedevelopment of promising young scientific talent There were 53finalists from the twelve member states and from Austria. Norwayand Switzerland. Ireland's entry by Sinead Finn and GraceO'Connor shared first prize in the contest (See page XIII).

To mark Ireland's Presidency of the EC, Aer Lingus invited six ofthe top winners from the European event to Dublin as guestexhibitors. Their work is featured in a special area in theexhibition and we are delighted to welcome them to Dublin.

BritainMARK MATHIESON (Age 16)Voice-Intensity Feedback for Speech-Handicapped

Mark Mathieson set out to aid handicapped people who are able

to articulate speech correctly but are unable to maintainadequate speech intensity. An example is patients who aresuffering from Parkinson's disease.

The chosen method, which is known in principal from similarapplications, is a voice-intensity feedback system, whichrequires a careful selection of sensors, a sound electronic andergonomic design and well thought out experiments to obtainconclusions for clinical applications. The system designed anddemonstrated by Mark was considered by the international jury,to be a remarkable achievement for a boy of his age.

DenmarkMOGENS MARKUSSEN (Aged 20)Eyewriter, An Eye-Operated Control Unit

Mogens Markussen has developed a system by means of whicha severty handicapped person can communicate with acomputer and. via a computer, with other persons.

Systems already exist which permit this kind of communicationwhen a person can operate. with some part of his body. a suitablyplaced switch. Mogens Markussen has considered the problemof permitting such communication to people who are able to useat least one of their eyes.

Mogens' work represents a significant example of theapplication of information technology in permitting handicappedpeople to exercise a vital function such as communication.

FranceCHARLES COURTIN (Aged 20)OLIVIER HIGELIN (Aged 20)HUGUES NODET (Aged 19)Measurement of Rocket Speed

This team has sought to measure by means of the Doppler effectthe speed of the rocket which they built and launched during theFrench amateur rocket launching campaign at Mourmelon inAugust 1988. This is done by comparing the output of two highfrequency oscillators, one of which is in the rocket and drives atransmitter, and the other which is on the launching pad andused as a reference for a ground based receiver.

The team have shown an excellent ability to build high accuracyinstruments.

GermanySTEPHAN SCHLITTER (Age 19)Investigations on Conducting Polymers used as Electrodes inStorage Batteries.

Most storage batteries used today have electrodes made ofinorganic materials, as for instance in the traditional lead storagebattery. It would clearly be an advantage, both economically andfrom the point of view of avoiding pollution, to use polymericmaterials which may nowadays be made with'T` - electron-systems which make them intrinsic conductors of electricity.

Stephan has carried out investigations of conducting polymerswith this purpose in mind. It is a very interesting piece of workwith obvious possible practical applications.

ItalyLINA TOMASELLA (Age 21)Investigation on the Toxicity of Different Dyes used as Tracers

Lina Tomasella has conducted a research project ofconsiderable biological importance by studying the effects ofcertain fluorescent dyes on aquatic animals. The dyes, dissolvedin water, are frequently used by geologists and hydrographers tostudy flow velocity in rivers or subterranean water currents. Sofar, these dyes have been considered to be harmless to animallife and to ecosystems.

This study shows that some of the dyes do indeed have an effecton the aquatic fauna, even at low concentrations.

NetherlandsMENNO BOLT (Age 19)ERIC TOONEN (Age 20)PASCAL STEVELMANS (Age 17)Wind Energy Project

The contestants have carried out an extensive constructionprogram on a new type of wind turbine (scale mi with avertical axis designed to blend into a landscape with dunes orgentle hills. They also built a tunnel to test the turbine.

In their project they have combined mechanical, electrical andcomputer directed principles.

The contestants combined exceptional mechanical skill with thecapacity of using interactive computer methods in an optimiseddesign that presents various novel features.

IrelandGrace O'Connor (Age 17)Sinead Finn (Age 17)Ursuline Convent, Thurles, Co. TipperaryA Crop Fractionation Industry

The project by Grace O'Connorand Sinead Finn isthe product ofthree years of dedicated and careful scientific study. It wasdesigned to utilise bio-mass products such as grass and otherfarm crops for purposes other than animal feed.

To utilise the land and associated human resources no longerrequired in the production of raw materials for food, new usesmust be found if we are to maintain the economic and socialbalance of many parts of Europe. Alternative outlets for farmcrops are urgently needed.

"Whole Crop Fractionation" offers the opportunity to divertsurplus crops or crop residues into alternative products currentlyimported into the Community including Ireland viz protein forfoods and feed upgrading; fuel ethanol: pigments for poultry andanimal feed; citric acid, biogas and leaving a residuethat may stillbe used for animal feed. The most ambitious outcome would beas a feedstock for a biorefinery process.

JOBS IN AER LINGUSOver the past two years Aer Lingus has recruited thirteenhundred people and we expect to be able to provide more jobs in

future years.

The jobs are varied. One thing that they do have in common isthat the airline is an exciting place to work in and theopportunities for development and promotion are good. Jobslikely to arise include:

trainee pilot, cabin crew (air hostess and steward),

craftworkers, apprentices, operatives (aircraft loaders,storepersons, drivers, catering workers) and a wide range ofjobs which we advertise under the heading of'Careers in AerLingus'. This latter group covers working in our groundpassenger service areas, reservations and travel shops,

administration, financial and planning functions and

secretarial work.

How to apply : Aer Lingus recruits for all positions strictly inresponse to advertisements in the public press. Please do notsend us uninvited applications. These advertisements willappear in the national press at the start of our recruitmentprogrammes.

All jobs are open to both women and men. Do not rule yourselfout for any job because it was traditionally seen as being done by

one sex only.
