Allamon 1 Dedric Allamon Mr. Karwatsky Freshmen Seminar. Per. 1 17 January 2017 With the advancing future electric cars are becoming more popular. Electric cars are said to be pollution free and one hundred percent environmental friendly. These cars are not the solution to reduce air pollution and global warming in the near future. Electric cars create large amounts of pollution indirectly. This is from the coal-fired power plants used to generate the electricity and the lithium mine sites, which

Final Research Paper - Lotus Rental Cars This paper will focus on preparing an assessment for Lotus Rental Car’s Chief Financial Officer on the feasibility of adding alternative fuel vehicles to the fleet. Although there are many forms of alternative fuel vehicles, this study will primarily focus on the use of hybrid vehicles at Lotus Rental Cars. We will discuss the background of Lotus Rental Car’s current status, the advantages and disadvantages of adding alternative fuel vehicles, and provide

Abstract The human race has advanced a great deal over the course of recent history, particularly so since the 18th century. Countless of these developments in society can be attributed to the achievements of engineers - however, despite this, many do not realise their contribution and importance. One of the fundamental bases behind these engineering feats is the harnessing of energy sources, such as electrical and heat energy. This has allowed for many innovations, for example power stations, transportation

to me several stories over the course of several weeks about some of the things they had experienced and ways in which they had actually taken advantage of paying customers. One mechanic told me how he watched his boss sell several very expensive engine parts to a little old lady. He told me that he had to leave the area because he started laughing so hard because of all the unnecessary parts his boss was selling the woman. However he did nothing to step in and stop the woman from being taken advantage

There are a large number of possible configurations of engine, electric machine(s)2, clutches, gearing, and transmissions that can result in an HEV. These are grouped in four classes in this paper. Based on an examination of the architectures, these classes are: beltdriven starter/generators on the front of the engine, crank-shaft mounted motor/generators on the rear of the engine, series/parallel hybrids, and combination hybrids with a mixture of the previous configurations

America’s Foreign Oil Dependency: What are the options to stop this crisis? For Professor Sharon Mitchener From August 11, 2006 BUS 531 Research Proposal Abstract The topic of this paper is America’s foreign oil dependency. The purpose of this paper is to suggest how might America completely destroy or at least greatly mitigate its dependency on crude oil to fuel Americans’ cars, especially foreign crude oil. Library literature, newspaper articles, encyclopedias, and the Internet

As a mechanical engineering student with an acute interest in the industrial work environment, I have understood the principles of mechanical engineering those are applicable to most of the machines, tools and processes which naturally widens my scope of learning and research. This has raised the interest in me to explore the option of pursuing my masters in mechanical engineering from your prestigious university which would not only help in increasing my knowledge but also prepare me in the best

man. However, Ford didn’t always see himself as an inventor, or even an innovator. He spent many of his younger years working as a machinist. It wasn’t until 1882 when Ford got a job at the Westinghouse Company of Schenectady where he repaired road engines that he saw himself enjoying the idea of being a creator. Henry Ford was born on a prosperous farm in Dearborn, Michigan on July 30th, 1863. Ford was the oldest of six siblings. His family was neither rich nor poor, but somewhere in the middle.

SUMMARY For the past forty years, United States Presidents have repeatedly called for a reduction in the country's dependence on fossil fuels in general and foreign oil specifically. Stronger efficiency standards and higher taxes on motor fuels are a step in this direction, but achieving even greater reductions in oil consumption will require changing the way Americans power their transportation system. Some officials advocate the electrification of the passenger vehicle fleet as a path to meeting
