We are three undergraduate students at the School of Mechanics of Universidad Tecnológica Nacional located in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
In our opinion, computer data acquisition is a basic tool that we need to be used to use. That’s why we have decided to start by the digitalization of our old tensile test machine. To be able to do that,
I propose a locomotion device for personal mobility which can move in all directions efficiently, with high speed and maneuverability, and over various surface conditions and small obstacles. The device is also portable, with reduced size and weight through the use of clever solutions and lightweight composite materials.
There was once a time when farmers had to work the land manually – then the task of farming was a long and tedious one lasting from dawn till dusk. Luckily many scientific advances have touched the field of agriculture.
Can a compact solar USB charger charge a phone and an external battery at the same time in about 3 hours? Yes! This is an Open Source Hardware instruction manual on how to build the Solarpad Kit solar USB charger, which includes the Solarpad solar panel and Power Core USB battery.
Why Open Source Hardware?
Far-infrared and submillimeter astronomy is a hot research field. The relative weakness of this radiation requires telescopes to use cryogenically cooled superconducting bolometers and associated transmission lines and processing equipment. Literature examination suggests that considerable time and care is spent on wiring and interconnecting systems to avoid failure points.
We propose a different thermal sensor,
Agira’s micro-optics technology traps and accumulates sunlight incident from multiple angles of the sun inside a static glass panel. This product delivers high intensity light to the edge of the glass panel where solar cells can be attached to produce power. Because our patent-pending optics reduces active solar cell requirement to 1-2%,
My oscillating engine (US patent no. 8,347,8470) features an extremely robust and compact structure as the only free space inside its body is a combustion chamber. The engine of this type with only three moving parts produces two power strokes per shaft revolution,
This proposal relates to a toroidal oscillating engine. Figure 4 describes the constructional arrangement. It has a sector shaped toroidal piston assembled with piston rings and joined to a circular disc/hub which is keyed to a shaft. The shaft is mounted in a split casing with bearings at both ends.
An effort has been made via Oxygenated Fuel Assisted System for IC engines to reduce emissions of harmful pollutants like NOx and CO to save the Earth from increasing global warming and airborne diseases.
