Increase in TERRORISM, THREATS & UNLAWFUL ACTIVITIES calls for High Mobility CIVILIAN SECURITY MANAGEMENT.
To counter and defeat the ever looming and evolving terror threats to civilian & military forces, the Police forces require a truly flexible and rapidly deployed defense and security system.
This is a device intended for use as a external ventricular assist device or as a direct cardiac replacement. The current state of the art consists of air powered heart pump devices. This device is electric and runs on a battery.
This project is very simple. I'm 1,84 mt tall and all the time I'm travelling around the word I have to stay a lot of hours seated so, for me, many time this is a big problem and I think it's also a problem for a lot of people.
The design is specially made for physically challenged people (without hands). This vehicle allows them to drive and control it by legs alone. The foot driven vehicle resembles a standard vehicle which is modified to meet special needs. In this vehicle the important functions like steering control, acceleration,
This design is all about sustainable personal transportation and maximized energy efficiency without relying on non-renewable energy sources like fossil fuels. The fuel for driving this vehicle is extracted from sunlight by high efficiency but conventional silicon solar cells, which you may even find on your neighbours rooftop.
This is a design for a mobile aerial solar power plant (MASP) that uses the large surface area and heavy lifting capabilities of a remote-piloted airship to provide a platform for the collection, storage,
Advanced Solid State Cooling Technology
This technology requires three tuned elements to operate:
1. A special nanotechnology-based ceramic produced using an induced self organizing tendency that is used as a heat extractor (energy extraction) element to capture localized or ambient heat.
Power Fingerprinting (PFP) is a cyber security solution capable of directly detecting malicious intrusions in critical infrastructure and Industrial Control Systems (ICS). PFP allows the monitoring of platforms with limited computational resources and memory, often found in ICSs and Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs),
The key challenge in designing vehicle suspension springs is primarily to cost-effectively strike a balance between vehicle ride comfort, road holding, and load carrying capacity. A Hybrid micro-composite E-like shaped spring strikes such a balance cost-effectively. Its advantages include
