High Altitude Wind Energy – Emerging technology Graduate Project Report Subject: Wind Power ME-4560 Instructor: Dr. James Menart Submitted by Smit Mistry (U00830591) Abstract There is significant amount of Energy stored in wind at high altitude so Airborne Wind Energy is optimistic way to get energy out of the wind so it is an emerging technology to get the energy out of the wind. Unlike the offshore wind turbine installing cost of Airborne wind turbine is less with high amount of power

The third order fracture distribution is strongly dependent on the lithofacies architecture, especially the distribution of bedding plane discontinuities. Fractures in stratified parts of the sequence form a nested structure with a high degree of mechanical units at the scale of individual sedimentary beds. In more homogeneous rocks, a widely-spaced background network of lithology-irrelevant fractures is overprinted by more densely spaced fractures terminating at significant mechanical decoupling

The air travel accounts for almost 11% of Europe 's GDP and 24 million jobs. Air travel is the most popular mode of travel for both UK residents travelling abroad and for overseas residents visiting the UK.

Introduction There have been various scientific studies into the effects climate change is having on the planet and how there is a decline in the amount of available non-renewable resources. In a report made by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2007), it was noted that, "Global atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide have increased markedly as a result of hum activities since 1750 and now far exceed pre-industrial values". From the statement made

Homosexuality (male). Definition Homosexuality refers to sexual behaviors and desires between males or between females. Gay refers to self-identification with such practices and desires, like homosexual, both terms mostly used only for men. Lesbian is its female counterpart.

Sociological context Since the 1970s, homosexuality has
