Solving propulsion problems by not using external thrust drives.
Benefits include no drive wheel cars, no props or jet boats or aircraft, no emission space.
It is novel because it is the only controlled kinetic energy propulsion system.
With the recent development of low-cost means for harvesting water from the ambient air, more widespread implementation of such technologies is needed, especially in areas that typically do not receive much rainfall. The existing technologies typically rely on wired electricity or other power sources to be implemented.
In this fast and furious world, we have forgotten to introduce ease in transportation. Therefore Intelligent Mobility Systems (IMS) introduces you to applications that can solve your daily problem of movement and simultaneously help your earn money as well as reduce pollution.
This proposal wants to provide a sustainable building system with the following:
-Components to be manufactured by 3D printing process with materials from recycled waste (PET bottles) filled with as alternatives, cellulose (from paper recycling), sand, water.
I started this project by selecting a common environment for restricting the "sustainability" theme, and be able to focus the home wasting issue.
So then I've done long research in food over-wasting issue in home, and I analyzed this problem in four categories, which were "sale," "conservation," "preparation,
Bonded Energy Solutions (BES) has developed a modular system that provides individual room radiator control for steam heating systems, enabling users to set temperatures for each room independently through the Internet. The BES system is designed to address current problems of poor heat distribution, overheating, underheating,
Enduralock, LLC was founded in 2010 by Dr. Harold Hess, Jonathan Hess, and Diana Hess. Our technology was invented to permanently lock a spinal implant to avoid loosening. This technology has been validated at 5 million cycles of compression and torque testing, and is currently utilized in the Minuteman®
There are about 60,000 MW of undeveloped hydro power in the US today (HR-267) and there are similar circumstances throughout the World. Any turbine under 10 meters of head or less than 10 m3/sec of water flow is so inefficient that they are not cost effective. Also,
