Utility vehicles are common in many parts of the world, especially in rural areas. They are used by farmers, conservation companies, fishermen and game bird hunters. They may be supplied with covers for the load deck made from canvas, alloy or fiberglass, their main objective being to provide security and weather tightness to the load.
This is an updated version of the entry to create the future design contest 2017. This design of increased efficiency has plane A and B in the form of solid rods as in image 1 inclined at 45 degrees and fixed to both the outer diameter of spring SP.
The Go Kart is a type of open wheel car. Go Karts come in all shapes and size, from motor-less models to high powered racing machines. Some such as Super Karts are able to beat racing cars or motorcycles on a long circuit. It is a small four wheeler run by an I.C Engine.
Through synergies in infrared sensing and drone platforms, we have found a new innovative way to detect hidden PFM-1 anti-personnel landmines. These particular unexploded ordnance (UXO) devices pose a difficult challenge to conventional landmine detection methods like metal detecting, because the mines are primarily composed of plastic and only weigh 75 g.
Our motor concept is both novel and sustainable. It requires no complicated windings or Rare Earth magnets. The idea utilizes the Lorentz Force: In physics (particularly in electromagnetism) the Lorentz force is the combination of electric and magnetic force on a point charge due to electromagnetic fields.
The solution for today’s issue is a habitat dependent on the international energy and water grid. The Urban Living Generator began with a brief in developing and conceptualizing of sustainable vertical housing design for Cabanatuan City by embracing the SIBOL Project or Sustainable and Intelligent Biosphere for Optimistic Living .
In automobile engineering there are many kinds of engines which have been manufactured by different companies but there are several problems that arise in engines like less power output, low efficiency, high altitude, mileage pick up, more fuel consumption, less torque, more exhaust etc.
Scientists estimate that there are about 10 zillion (10x10^16) fish in the sea, which is more than 1 million fish for every human. About 95% of these fish live deeper than 500 meters under the sea. All of these fish require oxygen to breathe. They do not split water molecules into Hydrogen and Oxygen;
ParallelDrive is a concept of convertible fully electric vehicle which is used as a four wheel car and it can transform into two separate bikes. It consists of two bikes and car cabin. In each bike power train unit, power bank, motor controller etc. While converting these two bikes into a four wheeler,
