There are a huge number of commercial vehicles on the road that still use pneumatic drum brakes. When such vehicles are in use, the brakes must be inspected at a minimum every morning before the first road trip. This is a dangerous process, and in fact may be difficult to perform, due to weather conditions, surface conditions,
Rear-end collisions account for 33% of accidents on U.S. roads. This class of accident accounts for 44% of fatalities (50,000 deaths per year).
Detailed analysis of rear-end collision accident reports showed that the majority of rear-end collisions occur on straight highways, in good weather conditions, good road conditions, and during daylight hours. Further, new old,
Reducing vehicle weight has been one of the hardest challenges for auto manufacturers to address, as the demand for increased comfort, safety, connectivity, interactivity, and natural/sustainable materials all to add vehicle curb weight, and high-performance lightweight materials are typically expensive, produce volumes too low for mass adoption, and often increase waste headed to our landfills.
Air pollution is the number one cause of death in the world. Traffic pollution causes tens of thousands of deaths each year in the USA alone. Most people get their highest exposure in traffic, inside their car. Car manufacturers have been working on the subject for years using sensors, active air intake control, filters and other means.
This is a project titled X1. The prime focus of this project is to ensure minimum amount of air resistance while having a required amount of downforce.
A four wheel drive vehicle with an electric motor in each wheel that drives the car. Each person has a set of pedals that are connected to a generator that charges the batteries. The outside of the vehicle is covered with see through solar panel that help charge the batteries. Two or four person cars. Two, four,
AVL Racetech of Graz, Austria on October 11, 2023 announced proof of concept of their 430 HP 2-liter Hydrogen Internal Combustion Engine
While this is an extraordinary accomplishment, well deserving of international recognition, extending to the ordinary automotive sector raises the same issues as electric vehicles: lack of hydrogen refueling infrastructure and range anxiety.
The 'Check Engine Light,' or MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp), illuminates (sometimes flashes with potential fire hazard) on the instrument cluster (IPC) as a very important standard feature for emission control/powertrain performance warning on cars and trucks, since around 1980. However, once the light is triggered it stays ON for a set period of time/ ignition cycles,
We have engineered a cutting-edge lineup of motor controllers that surpass traditional counterparts in every aspect. Our solutions offer, reduced operational costs, and an unparalleled driving experience. With advanced technology, intelligent software, and streamlined design, we provide an ecosystem of electric mobility solutions tailored for various segments.
The problem to be addressed originates from the inherent deficiencies in traditional pavement monitoring methods for road networks. These methods primarily rely on periodic visual inspections conducted by human personnel, which present significant limitations. Firstly, manual inspection is costly and requires considerable human and financial resources, limiting its applicability to large road networks like that of Mexico City. Additionally,
