The Electromagnetic Mechanical Induction Engine is the crossover between an electric vehicle, and a hybrid engine. Derived from the operation of a linear induction motor roller coaster, this electromechanical engine changes linear induction, to rotational induction. The linear motion of electromagnetic propulsion seen on many standing- launch roller coasters can be used to propel vehicles,
The main objective of a “Talking Box with Message Display” is to provide an effective method of communication through voice messages to the speech challenged and also to display the message on an LCD screen. This device employs a Voice coder to store and play back the voice messages,
Aviation carbon fiber production processes (in experiment blades have been produced with advantages of carbon fiber composites without the disadvantages that prevent carbon fiber to be used in critical aviation parts).
This is a walking type machine in combination of carriage, and a mobile bridge accompanied by a power generator to drive the bridge and carriage alternatively.
The bridge consists of a rigid frame carrying two rail tracks over which the load of the carriage can be drawn on wheels, forward and backward.
In the near future, there will be a great need for alternative sources of energy. Wind energy could fulfill much of the world’s energy demand, unfortunately, the majority of its power is located high in the sky.
Large wind turbines are noisy, require large capital investments and are dangerous for animals.
A new approach for enhancing joints’ properties based on the epoxysiliconorganic glue by simultaneously integrating micro- and nanosized fillers into a glue formulation has been proposed. It has been revealed that it results in a more than threefold increase in the glue joint’s thermoresistability.
