We have seen ruptured gas lines that has caused explosions and building fires caused by earthquakes and also by other natural disasters. An example is the hurricane that hit the East Coast a few years ago and caused buildings to catch fire in the flooded areas.
This entry focuses upon the process of rotor balance. The term rotor refers to the type found in jet engines. During the engine assembly process, rotors must be balanced to a very high level of precision. Rotors are typically balanced by using a device called a balance machine.
Teen and young drivers are the most likely to be involved in serious and/or fatal accidents. Their inexperience is dangerous, yet not known to surrounding motorists. In this invention,
Biomimetic hands are products which involve a sync between the action of natural fingers with the artificial fingers. In this project they are used in measuring the dimensions of objects for cognition and manipulation possibilities. The methodology involved in this project is the use of NiTi springs (SMA,
I am presenting a design of a very unique ROVER which is based on inchworm motion. It will move like an INCHWORM using its telescopic arm and suction system. The rover will get energy from solar cells.
There are two parts to this rover,
One consistent problem with traffic/driver interaction is the guesswork required to judge if/when a person approaching is braking his/her vehicle, specifically to make a turn. Crossing and entering traffic is a key source of accidents. In this invention,
When families nowadays dump kitchen waste, except for using kitchen waste bin, they use additionally generated waste, plastic bags, to discard the garbage that cannot be decomposed during the recycling.
Circu Waste is an eco-friendly kitchen waste bag made of agricultural waste –rice husk.
In this work, we explore the implementation of the energy efficient I/O interface circuits, namely the analog-to-digital converter (ADC), using back-end-of-line (BEOL) Nano-electromechanical (NEM) relays, for ultra-low power VLSI and IoT applications.
Nowadays,
The SunCare APP recommends ocean-friendly sunscreen according to the users’ activity needs.
We frequently hear about coral bleaching recently. In addition to global warming, sunscreen is another major cause! SunCare is an APP that helps the consumers’ selection of sunscreen products.
The artificial dikes and harbors are packed with wave-absorbing blocks to absorb the impact of the waves. Power wave block is a wave-absorbing block that absorbs waves and converts kinetic energy into electrical energy.
