In the traditional design of the crankshaft in the internal combustion engines, the expansion stroke in ICE produces every two revolutions for the crankshaft. In the new design, one revolution for the crankshaft can produce two expansion strokes.
ecoSPEARS is a technology conceptualized by NASA to bring a sustainable, long-term solution to PCB remediation in worldwide water supplies. Polychlorinated Biphenyls are the number one microscopic pollutants in the world’
Daylight optimizer is self-adjusting roof panelling technology to maximize (or optimize) the amount of day-lighting throughout the day inside a building.
The science of daylighting design is not just how to provide enough daylight to an occupied space,
The printed electronics market is currently estimated at around US $20 billion and it is expected to grow up to about US $73 billion by 2025. One of the major driving factor of the global printed electronics market is “substrate,” on which electronic or photonic devices are integrated. Presently,
In recent years the cost of wind and solar generation has dropped precipitously resulting in exponential growth. Governments are now setting goals of 50%, 80% or even 100% renewable generation, but for these goals to be met one critical element is missing: low cost electricity storage. 
In the sales company, we often find the problem as follows
1. The stock of goods that are not appropriate.
2. The product is out of date.
The patent pending engine design incorporates 12 sets of cylinders, each comprised of two opposing and one air pump (supercharger) piston, arranged radially in a rotating-cylinder cam-driven engine that uses diesel or JP-8 and completes 48 power strokes per revolution. 
This innovation relates to the modification of the surface of solar panels to increase the efficiency. In essence, this technology will make use of flexible solar cells that can be made to conform to other than a planar surface. In this way,
Longer life expectancy in conjunction with improved knowledge of cancers has resulted in increased demands for core needle biopsies. Additionally, cancer diagnosis typically occurs earlier and hence biopsy specimens are required from smaller tissue masses.
