PROBLEM: One of the problems with beam scaling systems, as well as command systems, is that the surface-to-air missile must have great maneuverability to intercept an evasive target. As they approach a target,
Currently the depletion of fossil fuels, global warming, environmental pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, among other problems that affect our environment, show us the need for a change in the distribution of our energy matrix towards the use of less polluting and renewable energy, that is,
Diesel engines are widely used in heavy-duty road vehicles, marine vessels and power generation, while burners are used in various factories as a heat source. Emulsion fuel is one of promising alternative fuel for Diesel engines that can reduce fuel consumption and emissions. However,
When more and more battery electric commercial vehicles are out on the road, the problem will increase to find an available charging station. It only takes some minutes to re-fuel a diesel vehicle while charging of a battery electric vehicle can take one hour.
A drone with a Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) and remote sensing programs. Its purpose to revolutionize the technique of landmine identity and clearance, making sure more secure environments for communities laid low with landmines.
Design a drone that can carry a LIBS and remote sensing system.
In the midst of a global ecological crisis, the “GreenTech Revolution” entry represents a beacon of hope and innovation. This project is dedicated to engineering cutting-edge technologies that promote environmental sustainability and reduce humanity’s ecological footprint. By harnessing the power of renewable energy sources,
95% of Humanity is permanently infected with Epstein–Barr virus. For those with no immunity, it causes potentially fatal cancers and is recognized as the cause. For others, it causes minor health problems and is not even recognized as the cause. However, researchers, practitioners,
Climate change is a well-known problem. Current political solutions are mainly based on an all-electric, hydrogen, and zero carbon society. It means stopping use of fossil resources like oil and gas. However, we cannot live without carbon, since it is a fundamental element in our daily life.
Teardown Analysis**: Start by dissecting several automobile models to understand their construction, materials used, manufacturing processes, and associated costs. This step helps in creating a comprehensive database of components and their properties.
**Database Creation**: Compile the findings into a structured database containing information on materials, thicknesses, manufacturing techniques,
100% off-grid solar electrification is achieved by combining the latest energy efficient products, balancing power loads with maximum solar energy generation and storage in a limited space, then matching that to the total energy consumption of a single residential occupant, which is around 80kWh per week per person.
