Direct conversion of thermal energy (heat) to electricity.
In collaboration with Argonne National Laboratory (Argonne), we have developed a proof-of-concept (TRL 5, as defined by DOE/NASA), electronic, wafer fabricated device for cheap, efficient direct conversion of thermal energy (heat) to electricity.
Metro Fit is an Active Public Transit application for the city of LA. It aims to highlight the importance of community participation in sustainable mobility practices.
Based on ethnographic research and literature review, evidence suggests that despite adequate affordances to use public transit,
Catastrophic failure concerns of Li-ion batteries including excessive heating, fires and explosions create anxiety in battery consumer markets, especially as larger and more powerful Li-ion battery architecture hits the marketplace.
The main cause of failure is the internal short-circuit,
Even with the advancements in automotive HVAC systems, it is still impossible to keep a constant temperature throughout the entire vehicle cabin. Usually the driver and the front seat passenger get to benefit from the desired temperature setting, while the backseat varies greatly. Today,
Novel low cost / electrically conductive / Li-ion corrosion resistant nitrogen atoms doped ultrananocrystalline diamond (N-UNCD) coating provides excellent chemically robust encapsulation of commercial natural graphite (NG)/copper (Cu) anodes and new textured Si-based anodes, currently under development for Li-ion batteries (LIB),
Hydrostatic Bicycle Executive Summary
Hydro Bike is a breakthrough in the field of bicycle transmission. It presents the next evolution in bicycle drive. Comparing traditional bicycles to Hydro Bike is like comparing a car’s old mechanical shifting gearbox to the ®Tiptronic - Infinite variable gearbox in use today.
Problem: The subclavian vein is accessed in about 2 million central venous access procedures performed annually in the US. This could be for hemodynamic monitoring in critically ill patients, delivering chemotherapy, parenteral nutrition, and pacemaker lead placement. Unfortunately,
We see so much waste in rivers, canals, lakes nowadays. And there are many ways to clean them but using of this aqua bin which uses IoT technology makes us easier to do our task. Mostly the lower wait particles,
It has a number of problems. Rescuing passengers in an emergency would involve cutting the heavy steel tube.
