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.
Nullspace EM is electromagnetic simulation software that is built for modern computing architecture and is over 25x faster than any of the leading commercial solutions for electrically-large problems.
Nullspace EM has been validated for over 10 years on cutting edge RF technology for the DoD,
In the process of tissue incision by laser energy, a boiling witch’s cauldron of chemical compounds is produced. Many of these compounds are transient: some pathways lead to products that are harmful to continuing efficient surgery and/or to the patient.
Platinum and palladium are essential elements for a hydrogen economy. To retrieve them from asteroids such as Psyche takes ample electric power and a fast ship. Lunar thorium can be transmuted into uranium via accelerator-driven D-D fusion using (non-radioactive) deuterium brought from Earth.
Welcome to the 22nd Annual Create the Future Design Contest, where ingenuity meets necessity in the quest for a better tomorrow. In our contribution, we provide a ground-breaking method for pandemic response: using parametric design to produce cost-effective drone systems specialized for COVID-19 inspection and monitoring.
