Conventional solid polymer electrolytes used in lithium-ion batteries often perform poorly due to structural limitations, particularly poor contact with electrodes, and they fail to prevent the growth of lithium dendrites—needle-like structures that form during charging cycles and can cause short circuits, fires, or explosions.
To address these issues,
Firefighters in high-pressure, high-risk environments face significant mental health risks. This project uses vibroacoustic therapy, developed through research, to relieve stress. The design focuses on professional image, high-stress routines, and ergonomics.
This project initially analyzed existing solutions like the buddy system and psychological counseling but found them inefficient.
Introduction:
Our innovative approach leverages machine learning to transform automotive 3D design, focusing on accelerating the product design cycle. By integrating deep learning into traditional design iterations, we provide a unified solution that significantly reduces costs and enhances efficiency.
Problem Statement:
The traditional automotive 3D design process is plagued by high costs and long lead times.
This chassis design provides for: 3 pairs of wheels that are arranged asymmetrically to each other.
The purpose of this design is to create two stages of touching the landing gear with the runway, which should ensure a softer landing of the airliner.
The principle is as follows: first, the 1st and 3rd pair of wheels must touch the ground,
Traditional stop signs serve a vital function but operate with outdated rigidity. Regardless of traffic or time of day, drivers must stop — even when no other vehicles are present. This leads to wasted time, unnecessary emissions, fuel consumption, and avoidable frustration. Worse, static stop signs can be missed by inattentive drivers, raising the risk of accidents.
The patented D-cycle (differential-stroke cycle) is a 2-/4-cycle hybrid,
This entry introduces a NASA-award-winning cryogenic recuperator designed for advanced space-based thermal systems. This design was awarded 1st Place in NASA’s Cryogenic Recuperator Design Challenge on GrabCAD. Official results: , selected from over 100 global submissions and evaluated by a panel of NASA engineers and subject-matter experts.
At its core,
This project introduces a reusable aerial launch platform powered by hydrogen fuel cells, designed to transport and deploy up to three micro-rockets from altitudes of 30 to 40 kilometers. It provides an innovative alternative to traditional ground-based launches, enabling more affordable and flexible access to space—especially for lightweight payloads like CubeSats.
While the world focuses on exhaust pipes, a silent polluter hides in plain sight: our tires and brakes. Non-exhaust emissions (NEE) from tire wear and brake dust can constitute over 50% of urban traffic-related particulate matter (PM2.5/PM10). This invisible, toxic dust—a problem exacerbated by heavier electric vehicles—clogs our air, contaminates our water,
Trains are found extensively throughout the world carrying Passengers and Freight. They are safe, economical and travel long distances in relative comfort for passengers. They are usually made strong and sturdy to withstand long usage and are heavy, weighing hundreds of tonnes. Since they travel on fixed rails,
