The electrocardiograph machine has not changed significantly over the past 50 years. In this new type of display, the data is processed for pattern recognition that results in the ability to quickly ascertain some of the heart actions.
Innovative Synergy of New Hybrid Off-Shore Wind Turbine/Permanent Magnet Motor/Generator Design with Renewable Energy Efficiencies
This project plan develops an innovative new wind turbine design which is already highly efficient and increases the efficiency of the wind power capture by synergistically linking the turbine power generation with another
A novel type of planetary shift transmission has been designed with reduced parasitic losses. Instead of oil-immersed multi-plate clutches, a small number of external dry-friction devices is used to engage the six available gear ratios. With dry friction, the application force, and the drag when disengaged,
The proposal relates to a non-radiation technology of manufacturing nano- and micro-track membranes by deep penetration.
Currently, propeller pitch control uses three approaches: it is based upon either hydraulic oil pressure, mechanical control using lateral motion along the axis of the drive shaft, or electric motor control with the drive motor embedded in the hub.
Wildfires seem to be getting worse in recent years, and improved methods are needed to help control them. Wildfires are driven by wind, and large ones can even create their own windstorm. I will present two novel ideas here that should help control wildfires by locally disrupting their wind.
Background
Today we are living in a "touch world” where we enjoy Facebook and YouTube every day. We are more social than ever before, we watch the world through a camera. Let’s have a look at YouTube statistics: over 4 billion videos are viewed a day,
This device attacks the age old problem of friction, while expanding the range of motion, raising efficiency, and offering virtually unlimited life. It is the first spiral magnetic bearing; making a non-contacting screw thread. A few parts have the functionality of a multi-stage gear train.
New Orleans, Louisiana (NOLA) was flooded due to a breach in the levee.
Small gaps in such a levee can easily be filled with sandbags if enough of them are around and there are enough people to fill and place the bags.
Levitated conveyors move silently and seemingly effortlessly
without lubrication or wear-producing debris as magnetic forces provide suspension without wheels. Ideal for medical or semiconductor clean rooms where dust or contaminants are
prohibited, these systems save power as well.
