PROBLEM
Two common problems with turbocharging systems are noise and turbo lag. Closure, or partial closure, of the engine throttle while the turbo compressor is operating at high boost condition can causes excessive back pressure on the compressor creating a condition called surge. This pressure spike is damaging to the turbo bearings and compressor wheel and creates significant noise.
The PolyHitch standardized modular components can be assembled into tools or structures using, in most cases, a "Slide & Cross Hitch Pin (S&P)" assembly process. If attached to a vehicle, via the trailer hitch, the assembly (tool or structure) will be able to use the vehicle's mass as a solid anchor and, if structured properly, could also be mobile.
The Brewtube is a container for storing, transporting and dispensing home brew beer, craft beer, wine or other liquid contents for Tap delivery. It uses a sliding disc to create a variable volume container so that the contents are never exposed to the air during consumption. beer stays fresh during the entire usage. It is fully reusable,
Usually aircraft are designed and undergo different levels of stress analysis starting from conceptual design review, preliminary deign review, detail design review, validation loads, Ground test, flight test and entering into service. All these stages required multiple analyses and reviews depending on the types of loads coming out in each phase.
Due to the “Utilization Wall,” future CMOS technology calls for a radically new microprocessor architecture with less transistor switching, to take full advantage of both density and speed.
This is important not only for big many-core processors but also very small chips that are to be made in very large quantities,
Nigi torque multiplier as the name implies is a mechanism for multiplying torque. Consider two rotors coupled together. In normal case if these two rotors are connected together and allowed to rotate, then the same torque acting on the outer rotor would also act on the inner rotor.
The design that I am going to explain about is quite simple and also easy to understand. The main purpose of this design is to bring down the overall fuel consumption of the engine and also reduce the pollutants level.
