The enclosed motorcycle (“cabin cycle”) marries the efficiency of the motorcycle and the weather/crash protection of a car. Such a vehicle can fulfill all the roles motorcycles currently fill – from “fun” machines to police patrol – and many more with the all-weather capability and crash protection.
I envision an oceangoing ship the size of a modern container ship laden with a hydroponic farming operation. The ship could be moved to whatever temperate zone is required for the crop being raised. It could be owned and operated by hunger relief organizations so as to provide fresh food rations to natural disaster areas of the world.
This is a simple method of capturing the energy of waves in places where the pressure head is low but kinetic energy of the water is significant. On sea shores, lake shores or banks of rivers,
The Pulsed Turbine Transvector Jet Propulsion concept is a recently developed adaptation to the Pulsed Turbine Rotor Engine and The Pulsed Turbine Jet Propulsion concept.
The transvector jet principle with optional water spray/steam thrust booster was envisioned to ensure ample thrust to vertically launch a VTOL jet propelled vehicle and speed up its transition to horizontal flight.
The Waternet (How to prevent the world from a water war)

Because of global warming, it will become more and more difficult to get pure water. The polar ice liquefaction, the evaporation of tropical seas will generate more floods and water pollution. All of these will cause more trouble due to toxic water as illness, drought,
The wrist saver is a simple device that would allow you to rest your arm, keeping it in a comfortable and ergonomic position while working in front of a computer; turning your elbow and not your wrist, saving your wrist from the painful carpal tunnel syndrome and other wrist related injuries.
The thermal stir welding process (U.S. Patents 7,980,449 & 8,127,977) is a new solid-state (meaning the weld metal does not melt during welding) welding process invented at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center. The unique welding process (FIGURE 1) decouples the heating,
A thermal storage technology which enables the instantaneous generation of electricity, cooling and heat whenever it is needed, for use in the home, industry and power grids, etc.
For decades the science community has been trying to store energy and has been concentrating on doing this within electrical batteries.
ABSTRACT
The Rechargeable Therm-o-Electronic Battery
A device that looks just like but weighs less than a normal battery of its size, charges just like a battery but whose output is programmable within the dynamic range of the device.
Thin Film Photovoltaic Dynamic Wind Turbine Blade
Innovation
The innovation consists of wind turbine blades that dynamically optomize peak performance of a wind turbine with the use of thin film photovoltaic technologies, solar energy and a computer controlled analysis program of wind conditions. Wind turbine blades would be constructed of light weight material with a carbon fiber covering.
