The basis idea would be to establish a network of entities and organizations interested in seeing the USA lead the effort towards producing Electric Flight Propulsion systems.
This can only be accomplished by the collaborative efforts of universities, private companies, airports and research institutions.
Abstract-
A solar-thermal power plant as proposed in the project comprises open air cycle combined generator and conventional steam power generation unit in modified central boiler and super heater configuration.
I have conducted experiments which have shown that a Low Weight Hybrid Organic-Inorganic Ablative Composite Thermal Protection System composed of mainly a ligno-cellulosic matrix can be used as a in high temperature applications such as atmospheric re-entry.
An effort has been made via Oxygenated Fuel Assisted System for IC engines to reduce emissions of harmful pollutants like NOx and CO to save the Earth from increasing global warming and airborne diseases.
DID WE TAKE THE WRONG APPROACH TO FLIGHT?
Perception is Reality. Our current perception is that flight requires lift via the manipulation of air flow.
According to the laws of air resistance a BUMBLEBEE can (or should) not fly.
LockPuck™ is a very unique pin-code lock technology that resembles a hockey puck with push-buttons. The technology is all mechanical and can be manufactured with different mounting brackets to lock-up just about anything, just about anywhere.
Amphi-BX is a hub steered, fork-less amphibious two-wheeler which can run both
on land and water. At present there is no two wheeler compatible like this. The main
advantage of this bike is its compatibility.
The most popular and used batteries are those from types AA and AAA. They have different dimensions and it is impossible to replace one of them with the other type. This is problem for the consumers, because sometimes they purchase the false type and they can not use them,
Weight reduction is now the main issue in automobile industries. Weight reduction can be achieved primarily by the introduction of better material, design optimization and better manufacturing processes.
