A practical system of ride sharing has been developed to overcome the inherent problems with car-pooling and mass transit. Using the proper vehicle for the highway and another for city and neighborhood use enhances safety.
Your car is your second largest investment. According to Consumer Reports, 68% of car owners research recommendations before authorizing work, 56% wish they had more information going into the shop, and 46% of them negotiate the price of work. But ultimately,
I envision a piezoelectric ratchet stepping motor to circulate blood as an improvement to the HeartMate II. The digital piezoelectric turbine will circulate blood with more accuracy and control than a linear electric motor. With low power consumption, less parts and natural redundancy of design will ensure its reliability.
Many alloys have rare earth additions to improve their surface properties at high temperatures. A new product, Minimox® Nanocrystalline Alloy Treatment, exploits this fact to protect a variety of alloys in extreme environmental conditions of elevated temperature and/or corrosive atmospheres.
Imagine yourself running frantically to catch that early morning flight, weaving and winding through other travelers as your luggage follows your every move. You made it, just as the flight attendant was closing the gate. Luckily you choose to purchase Novo Luggage,
We all know about the polarized sunglasses, and about the theoretical-full-darkness using Malus's law with two polarizers. We want to put it to use in the simplest way:
We add another layer to the polarized sunglasses that we use. This layer is a polarizer as well,
We propose the project of a digital watch, realized by means of inkjet printed silver conductive tracks based on an innovative nanostructured ink, over a glass substrate. The transparency/translucency of glass may result in interesting aesthetic effects depending on the color of the underlying wall/support.
Introduction
Today’s world is concerned about the depletion of natural resources and the impact of human activity on the environment. Making automotive transportation more efficient is one of the major goals of engineering research.
Non-invasive Imaging Method
A: Electrical Resistance Tomography (ERT) is a non-invasive imaging method applied in industry, geoelectrics during the last decades and recently for medical monitoring and analysis of the human lung functions.
B: What does "non-invasive“ mean?
EnviroSynth is an analogue music synthesizer aimed at the renewable energy/educational electronics market. It consists of 2 Voltage Controlled Oscillators (VCOs), 1 four-channel Mixer, 1 Filter and 1 Voltage Controlled Amplifier (VCA). These are built entirely in analogue electronic hardware, and are based on a low power,
