HP SHIPYARDS / HP BUS STOP - SUNRISE An eight-year-old African-American girl with knockers in her hair stands on a desolate sidewalk behind yellow caution tape. She licks a candy and gazes upwards – spellbound. A man in a hazmat suit glides along the pavement, Darth Vader breaths heaving from his space-mask. He loads pieces of trash and plants into hazardous waste bags. In the distance, more men in hazmats crawl along a decaying dock, collecting various items. The little girl breaks her gaze and begins down the street, running her hand along the caution tape. A voice appears. PREACHER (O.S.) Why they got suits on and we don't?

School of Mechanical Engineering, REVA University, Bengaluru Abstract: Mono wheel as the name indicates consists of a single wheel. the main principle involved is application of GYROSCOPE. The main aim of Monowheel is that it reduces the space occupied compared to other vehicle and environment friendly.Electrical vehicles can become a key to personal transportation in the environment where atmospheric pollution must be restricted, traffic conjunction is a severe issue and parking space is big concern especially in urban areas. Considering all these issues there is immense necessity of developing the transportation system that will be able to solve these problems. Developing a one-wheeled electric vehicle which has features that can over-come all the problems mentioned above since it has small longitudinal length and low carbon footprint. An electric unicycle is a self-balancing personal transporter with a single wheel. The rider controls the speed by leaning forwards or backwards, and steers by twisting the unit using their feet. The self-balancing mechanism uses gyroscopes and accelerometers in a similar way to that used by the Segway PT.

Vorankommen ist im physischen wie auch im metaphorischen Sinn dem Menschen innewohnend. Der Mensch bewegt sich zuerst auf seinen vier und dann auf seinen zwei Extremitäten, wobei das Herantasten an die Routine und dann auch die routinierte Bewegung selbst immer wieder von Stürzen begleitet ist. Kommt es hierbei nun zu einem Sturz (v.a. in der Ebene), dann sollte solch ein Unfallereignis selten in schwere und kaum in tödliche Verletzungen münden. Dem Menschen freilich ist die Bewegung auf den eigenen Beinen schon immer zu wenig gewesen und die Erfindung des Rades führte zu ungeahnten Möglichkeiten. Kleinstkinder sind bereits mit dem Rutschauto, Kleinkinder mit dem Laufrad oder Kinder und Jugendliche mit dem Fahrrad unterwegs.

  • Analysis Study of Current Transportation Status in Vietnam's
    sustainability Article Analysis Study of Current Transportation Status in Vietnam’s Urban Traffic and the Transition to Electric Two-Wheelers Mobility Duc Nguyen Huu * and Van Nguyen Ngoc Faculty of Energy Technology and Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Electric Power University, Hanoi 100000, Vietnam; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +84-90-1008-555 Abstract: In Vietnam’s major urban areas, private motorcycles are the main means of transportation that are suitable for socio-economic conditions, current transport infrastructure, and people’s habits. However, in recent years, the negative effects of a large number and high density of motorcycles in urban areas such as traffic congestion and noise and air pollution have resulted in a gradual change in the public’s opinion of private vehicle adoption, especially motorcycles. The public has also urged the authorities to issue policies of limiting or curving the growth in the number of private vehicles powered by fossil fuels in big cities. However, in order to achieve the goal, other alternative means of transport should be proposed to encourage people to move to a more sustainable and eco-friendly form of mobility. The alternatives also should be consistent with the average income level as well as social characteristics. In recent years, along with the development of a highly connected public transport network, efficient and less-polluting vehicles including electric two-wheelers have been emerging, thriving, and drawing more attraction from Vietnamese people and policy makers. The Citation: Huu, D.N.; Ngoc, V.N. spread in the number of electric two-wheelers in Vietnam’s major cities may be a sign of the transition Analysis Study of Current to a more sustainable and less-polluting means of transport as an alternative to gasoline-powered Transportation Status in Vietnam’s motorcycles.

The main aim of Monowheel is that it reduces the space occupied when a single occupied vehicle is necessary.

Introduction A Monowheel is a one-wheeled single-track vehicle similar to a unicycle. However, instead of sitting above the wheel, the rider sits either within it or next to it. The wheel is a ring, usually driven by smaller wheels pressing against its inner rim. Most are single-passenger vehicles, though multi- passenger models have been built. Hand-cranked and pedal powered mono wheels were patented and built in 19th century. Some modern builders refer to these vehicles as monocycles, though that term is also sometimes used to describe motorized unicycles. Today, mono wheels are generally built and used for fun and entertainment purposes, though from the 1860s through .to the 1930s, they were proposed for use as serious transportation In view of the efficiency of bicycles, it is natural to ask if a one-wheeled vehicle provides any advantages.

  • Turbine Machines Are Applicable for Speeding and Flying Objects
    APPLICABILITY AND COMPATIBLE. [1905] Turbine machines are applicable for speeding and flying objects, vehicles and machines for generating electric current and for propulsion of the electric vehicle, vessels or craft. Unlike stationary turbine machines the machines mounted on a speeding object generates electric current for the vehicle electric supply. While the vehicle moving through the ambient air or water is the generator of friction around the object forcing itself through matter. Whereby friction of wind is obtained for driving the turbine oriented in the head wind direction or ducting the flow of fluid to the turbine machine. A marine vessel speeding on the body of water has the advantage to utilize both flowing matter of water and wind when speeding. motorized and non-motorized vehicles speeding and flying objects, vehicles, crafts.
