Abstract:
Automotive designers' long-term ambition of combining high performance and excellent liquid and gas fuel economy in the same automotive vehicle, seems to be on the verge of fruition by Cracow University of Technology's Automotive Mechatronics Research-and-Development (R&D) Team with their revolutionary concept of new all-round energy efficient tri-mode supercars (advanced ultralight hybrids). This all-round, energy efficient, tri-mode supercar concept had been conceived shortly before October 1993 when the US President Bill Clinton's Clean Car Initiative launched a commitment by America's Big Three automotive manufacturers in Detroit that are to be assisted by America's national weapons laboratories in a 10-year program to develop environmentally-friendly supercars. Reporting this, the New York Times named President Clinton's teenage dream car as a 1952 Buick "Kaiser Henry J" gas guzzler. The development of the tri-mode supercars at Cracow University of Technology began in the early 1990s on a very much restricted budget, compared with similar projects in other countries, with emphasis on lengthening the operating distance and enhancing the image of them. Longer running distance will be achieved by designing an energy-saving full-time Four-Wheel Driveable (4WD) propulsion, Four-Wheel Brakeable (4WB) dispulsion, Four-Wheel Absorbable (4WA) suspension, Four-Wheel Steerable (4WS) conversion and ultralight chassis and body with an aerodynamic drag of around 0.2, as well as the use of high-performance unconventional combustion engines, modern electronically-controlled electromechanical/ mechanoelectrical Steer-, Autodrive- and Autoabsorbable Wheels ( SA 2 W ) with the AC-AC, AC-DC-AC and/or DC-AC/AC-DC macroelectronic converter commutator (macrocommutator) wheel-hub motors/generators and high-density mechanical energy-storing high-speed Autodrive- and Autoabsorbable Flywheel ( A 2 F ) with the brushless AC-AC, AC-DC-AC and/or DC-AC/AC-DC macrocommutator twin composite-flywheel-hub motors/generators and chemical energy-storing advanced chemoelectrical storage battery. Called the Poly-Supercar (or Polytechnic all-round energy efficient tri-mode supercar), i.e. the advanced ultralight hybrid, it will be the product of four year's R&D to design an experimental four-seat supercar of advanced specification, performance and economy, and with functions which include lane keeping, adaptive cruise control, traffic sign recognition, obstacle detection, collision avoidance, blind spot detection, and day/night vision enhancement.

Abstract:
Background:Despite the thermal challenge of demanding workloads performed in high cabin temperatures while wearing heavy heat-retardant clothing, information on physiological responses to racing V8 Supercars in hot conditions is not readily available.Purpose:To describe the thermal, cardiovascular, and perceptual strain on V8 Supercar drivers competing in hot conditions.Methods:Thermal strain was indicated by body-core temperature using an ingested thermosensitive pill. Cardiovascular strain was assessed from heart rate, hydration status, and sweat rate. Perceptual strain was estimated from self-rated thermal sensation, thermal discomfort (modified Gagge scales), perceived exertion (Borg scale), and perceptual strain index.Results:Prerace body-core temperatures were (mean ± SD) 37.7°C ± 0.4°C (range 37.0°C to 38.2°C), rising to 39.0°C ± 0.4°C (range 38.4°C to 39.7°C) postrace. Driver heart rates were >160 and >170 beats/min for 85.3% and 46.7% of racing, respectively. Sweat rates were 1.06 ± 0.12 L/h or 13.4 ± 1.2 mL · kg−1 · h−1, and postrace dehydration was 0.6% ± 0.6% of prerace body mass. Drivers rated thermal sensation as hot (10.3 ± 0.9), thermal discomfort as uncomfortable (3.1 ± 1.0), and perceived exertion as very hard to very, very hard (8.7 ± 1.7) after the races. Overall physiological and perceptual strain were 7.4 ± 1.0 and 7.1 ± 1.2, respectively.Conclusions:Despite the use of cooling, V8 Supercar drivers endure thermal, cardiovascular, and perceptual strain during brief driving bouts in hot conditions.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the influence that adopting open innovation (OI) has on the innovativeness and performance of specialized small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). This paper also examines the adoption of OI within a firm’s practices and models, and within the three dimensions of firm sustainability. Design/methodology/approach Survey data from 48 specialized SMEs manufacturing supercars were analyzed using partial least squares structural equation modeling. SmartPLS software was used to conduct a path analysis and test the proposed framework. Findings The findings suggest that high adoption of OI models tends to increase firm innovativeness. Similarly, the adoption of OI practices has a positive effect on innovativeness but to a lesser extent than OI models. The moderation results of innovativeness further show that OI models and practices can benefit the performance of SMEs. Specifically, two dimensions of performance – environmental and social performance – were found to be greatly influenced by OI. Research limitations/implications Due to parsimony in the investigated model, this study only focuses on OI adoption as practices and models without considering its drivers or other contingency factors. Practical implications This paper could help practitioners in SMEs better understand the benefits of adopting OI to be more innovative but also more sustainable. Originality/value This study contributes to the literature on the role of OI practices and models regarding the dimensions of firm sustainability performance by being the first paper to investigate this relationship in the context of small and medium manufacturers of supercars.

Abstract:
Review on using DLC in making tyres. DLC films have been used as protective coatings for various applications. We can use DLC to improve the tyre’s life especially for sports cars and supercars like Lamborghini and Bugatti Chiron. And also in military vehicles for making the tyres bulletproof. DLC is a class of amorphous carbon material that displays some of the typical properties of diamond. DLC is usually applied as coatings to other materials that could benefit from some of those properties but we can use DLC in the synthesis of tyre’s rubber (for making threads) and ply thus improving the overall quality of the tyres.

Concepts of the electronically-controlled electromechanical/mechanoelectrical Steer-, Autodrive- and Autoabsorbable Wheels (SA2W) with their brushless Alternating Current-to-Alternating Current (AC-AC), Alternating Current-to-Direct Current-Alternating Current (AC-DC-AC) and/or Direct Current-to-Alternating Current (DC-AC)/Alternating Current-to-Direct Current (AC-DC) macroelectronic converter commutator (macro-commutator) wheel-hub motors/generators with the Application Specific Integrated Matrixer (ASIM) macroelectronic converter commutators (ASIM macrocommutators) and Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) microelectronic Neuro-Fuzzy (NF) computer (processor) controllers (ASIC NF microcontrollers) for environmentally-friendly tri-mode supercars (advanced ultralight hybrids) have been conceived by the first author and designed by both authors with the Cracow University of Technology’s Automotive Mechatronics Research and Development (R&D) Team. These electromechanical/mechanoelectrical wheel-hub motors/generators, respectively, for instance, can be composed of the outer rotor with the Interior Permanent Magnet (IPM) poles and the inner stator that has the three-phase armature winding. The macroelectronic converter commutator establishes the AC-AC cycloconverter, AC-DC rectifier-DC-AC inverter and/or DC-AC inverter/AC-DC rectifier ASIM macrocommutator. The microelectronic NF computer (processor) controller establishes the ASIC microcomputer-based NF microcontroller. By adopting continuous semiconductor bipolar electrical valves in the high-power ASIM, it has been able to increase the commutation (switching) frequency and reduce harmonic losses of the electromechanical/mechanoelectrical wheel-hub motors/generators, respectively.

Abstract:
The SuperCDMS SNOLAB experiment will use solid state Germanium and Silicon detectors to search for Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs), a leading candidate to explain dark matter. WIMPs are thought to exist in halos around galaxies and therefore thought to be constantly streaming through the earth. The CDMS detectors have been developed to measure the energy deposited by a WIMP-nucleon collision in terrestrial calorimeters. This thesis focusses on the Data Acquisition (DAQ) system that uses Detector Control and Readout Cards (DCRCs) and is designed to be dead- time-less. The DCRCs read in the data stream from the detector’s 12 phonon and 4 ionization energy channels. The DCRCs also control detector settings, and we develop interactive codes to allow users to easily change detector settings through the DCRC. The DAQ is designed to decide which events to write to disk in order to keep data throughput under a limit yet never miss an event that will be useful in the subsequent analysis. In this effort we develop different readout methods of the detector array for the different calibration runs and WIMP search runs. We also develop fast algorithms for rejecting events that fail a certain criteria for being usable. We also present a novel data compression method that reduces the total data volume by a factor of ∼ 16 yet retains all important information. This method involves a large covariance matrix inversion, and we show that this inversion can be consistently computed given that a sufficient amount of data has been used to build the covariance matrix. We also develop a GUI that is a critical element of the detector testing program for SuperCDMS SNOLAB. The GUI accesses the data stream as it is being written to disk, efficiently reads in the waveforms, and displays them in a user-friendly, oscilloscope-like, format. By making use of Fast Fourier Transform technology, the GUI is also capable of displaying incoming data in the frequency domain. This tool will enable a new degree of real-time analysis of detector performance, specifically noise characteristics, at the test facilities in the next stage of detector testing.

The Lycopodium genus plants contain secondary metabolites that make them a potential source of pharmacologically active compounds. The extract of the specie Lycopodium clavatum L. presents anticholinesterase, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal activities. The supercritical fluid extraction has several advantages compared to traditional extraction techniques. Therefore, this study aimed metabolites Lycopodium clavatum L. extraction thru supercritical CO2 process. The supercritical fluid pressure and temperature as well the pretreatment time (soaking the plant in basic solution) influences in lycopodine alkaloid content in the extract were evaluated by an incomplete factorial design with three factors and three levels (Box-Behnken) and response surface methodology. The extract was subjected to Stas-Otto acid-base process and then analyzed by mass spectrometry coupled gas chromatography. The content of lycopodine was defined by normalizing peak areas of the chromatogram. The pressure was evaluated between 200 and 300 bar, the temperature between 40 to 60?C and the immersion time was zero to two hours. Oniy pressure and temperature were statistically significant, for this reason they are ideal parameters for extraction: 300 bar, 40?C, without immersion of the plant in the alkaline solution. Under these conditions we obtained a content of 20.19% of lycopodine the final extract was raised and the yield curve as a function of extraction time. This curve was modeled mathematically, with good fit, for models of Crank (1975), Sovov? (1994) and Reverchon (1996). Thus parameters related the mass transfer were estimated such as difusion coefficient and mass transfer coefficient, which are important for scale-.up and process simulation. In this study, the extraction with supercritical CO2 was found toe technically feasible to obtain lycopodine, since it is more selective and with higher yields compared to the ethanol extraction case.

Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 285-294).
An overwhelming proportion of the universe (83% by mass) is composed of particles we know next to nothing about. Detecting these dark matter particles directly, through hypothesized weak-force-mediated recoils with nuclear targets here on earth, could shed light on what these particles are, how they relate to the standard model, and how the standard model fits within a more fundamental understanding. This thesis describes two such experimental efforts: CDMS 11 (2007-2009) and SuperCDMS Soudan (ongoing). The general abilities and sensitivities of both experiments are laid out, placing a special emphasis on the detector technology, and how this technology has evolved from the first to the second experiment. Some topics on which I spent significant efforts are described here only in overview (in particular the details of the CDMS II analysis, which has been laid out many times before), and some topics which are not described elsewhere are given a somewhat deeper treatment. In particular, this thesis is hopefully a good reference for those interested in the annual modulation limits placed on the low-energy portion of the CDMS II exposure, the design of the detectors for SuperCDMS Soudan, and an overview of the extremely informative data these detectors produce. It is an exciting time. The technology I've had the honor to work on the past few years provides a wealth of information about each event, more so than any other direct detection experiment, and we are still learning how to optimally use all this information. Initial tests from the surface and now underground suggest this technology has the background rejection abilities necessary for a planned 200kg experiment or even ton-scale experiment, putting us on the threshold of probing parameter space orders of magnitude from where the field currently stands.

Abstract:
Electrochemical capacitors (ECs) have received a significant level of interest for use in the electric utility industry for a variety of potential applications. For example, ECs integrated with a power conversion system can be used to assist the electric utility by providing voltage support, power factor correction, active filtering, and reactive and active power support. A number of electric utility applications have been proposed but, to date, ECs have not been very well characterized for use in these applications. Consequently, there is a need to gain a better understanding of ECs when used in electric utility applications. ECs are attractive for utility applications because they have higher energy density than conventional capacitors and higher power density than batteries. ECs also have higher cycle life than batteries, which results in longer life spans. To better understand the system dynamics when ECs are used for utility applications requires suitable models that can be incorporated into the variety of software programs currently used to create dynamic simulations for the applications, programs such as PSPICEâ ¢, MATLAB Simulinkâ ¢, and PSCADâ ¢. To obtain a relevant simulation with predictive capability, the behavior of the EC on which the model is based must be well defined; this necessitates a thorough understanding of the electrical characteristics of these devices. This paper and the associated research focus on the use of the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) to develop nonlinear equivalent circuit models to better understand and characterize symmetric ECs (SECs) for electric utility applications. It also focuses on the development of analytical solutions to better understand SEC efficiency and energy utilization. Representative static synchronous compensator (StatCom) systems, with and with out SECs, were simulated and discussed. The temperature effects on device ionic resistance and capacitance are covered as is the effect of temperature on maximum power transfer to a resistive load. Experimental data showed that the SEC's double-layer capacitance and ionic resistance are voltage dependent. Therefore a voltage-dependent RC network model was developed and validated and the results showed that this type of model mimicked the experimental SEC better than traditional electrical models. Analytical solutions were developed for the efficiency and energy utilization of an SEC. The analytical solutions are a function of operating voltages, constant current, and ionic resistance. The operating voltage method is an important factor in system design because the power conversion interface is typically limited by a voltage window and thus can determine the performance of SECs during charge and discharge. If the operating voltage window is not properly selected the current rating of the system can be reduced thus limiting the SECs performance.

This work aims to highlight the importance of sulfur recovery units, the procedural and environmental aspects, respectively, in the oil refinery. This processes at Sines Refinery where summary explained and their environmental impact was short seen as well. Without a good performance of sulphur recovery units, lifetime of facilities decreases due to corrosion of the equipment, acknowledging that sulphur poisoning of catalysts makes impossible the operation of catalytic units and concordance with the legislation in force. From a simple atmospheric distillation unit to a more complex one as hydrocracker, lighter chains have to be treated as a guarantee of proper operation of all units downstream as fuel gas and hydrogen consumers. It made a description of the recovery system installed and improvements planned for these units, which responded to a more restrictive legislation. In the description of the sulfur recovery system is given an important relevance to the process CLAUS and SUPERCLAUS® to better characterize the existing system. The current rate of sulfur recovery in Sines Refinery, are roughly 97 percent of which falls within the theoretical values, but the refinery during the licensing process undertaken to achieve higher recovery rates to 98 percent which boosted the improvement project. The project for improvement of manufacturing areas I and II, will lead to an increase, in range of one percentage point, of extraction sulfur from the gaseous effluent. This improvement will be reflected in the seizure of approximately 270 tons of sulfur per year, which was previously issued in the form of SO2 into the main stack of Sines Refinery. The air is a natural resource depending on it all life as we know it whose largely influence, ecosystems, which quality cannot be separated of sustainable development and hence the relevance of the sulphur recovery units.
