Imagine a ride in which all you want to do is enjoy, relax, detached from all distractions and without any worries regarding refuelling stations, fuel costs and even contribute in protecting the environment.
Fasteners are inevitable part of mechanical joints. They play a productive part in holding components together and also in separating them. Our novel design of ER ( Electrorheological ) Bolts can be used as better fasteners in holding components present in space stations and satellites.
PROPOSED CANCER CELL DATABASE (Subjected to the researchers input and modifications.)
1. Build a cancer Facebook type database of all information known about cancer cells.
2. Each country’s cancer research group is responsible for the accuracy and timeliness of their data.
The prewired chip carrier module package concept is for chip packaging without the need for a wire bonder. Instead you use a tweezers to insert the chip and then replace the cover under the chip from the bottom.
Problem design idea solves…
Existing distance measuring wheels are only available in a variety of fixed wheel sizes. Small wheel size devices are normally for indoor use, on somewhat smooth ground, or to measure relatively shorter distances. Medium and large wheel size devices are often used outdoors,
During an emergency, when a pilot has to execute a belly landing or ditching (water landing), the fuselage of the plane comes in direct contact with the surface of the Tarmac or water body.
The idea that is proposed here is an Organic Rankine cycle that is compact and small and works on phase change material instead of a pump. This novel replacement can make this energy producing device run on just heat (even solar energy) as input.
Multi-Purpose Bed.
The bedroom is a space which builds up a foundation for the future. That is its essential quality. It is a room,
The 3-terminal converter is built with HV IGBT transistors with 6,5kV blocking voltage. Transistors are controlled by fiber optic from DSP and FPGA based controller. Entire device consists of three subcircuits, which create configurable bidirectional multilevel converter, based on "DIODE CLAMPED" structure.
