The electric bus is an ecological means of transport. Its operation reduces the negative impact on the environment. The transition to electric urban transport is in line with the concept of sustainable development of the European Union and the Polish “Act on Electromobility and Alternative Fuels”. Today, on the streets of Polish cities, electric buses are increasingly replacing ...

In the XXI century, when environmental awareness is growing and the impact of human activity on the planet is more and more noticeable, striving to minimize energy consumption seems to be a necessary direction in the development of technology. This development cannot take place without an initial understanding and describing the relationships influencing specific technologies. ...

The purpose of this study is to develop a circuit for an automobile air conditioner, which will reduce the consumption of power developed by the engine. This paper proposes the design of an automobile absorption air conditioner. A description of the principle of operation of an automobile absorption air conditioner operating on a cycle of a one-stage absorption refrigeration ...

The present paper describes experiments and research outcomes concerning the construction of cement concrete pavements in South Kazakhstan, taking into account significant climate changes. The study has identified potential problems in the construction of cement concrete pavements in the region, where there was no experience of their construction until the mid-2000s. In order to ...

Plasma spraying is one of the most effective methods allowing both to restore worn surfaces of parts and create wearresistant coatings on new parts aiming the increase of their service life. Properties of the produced coatings depend on number of parameters, such as a plasma temperature, a chemical and fractional composition of the sprayed mixture, a distance from a plasma torch ...

For any company that sells its products in the networks of city stores, the urgent issue is the optimal delivery of their goods. During routing it is necessary to take into account many restrictions caused by specific conditions of transportation process in the city: number of cargoes, nature of cargoes, delivery time, structure of fleet and its presence, work time of enterprises ...

A comparative analysis of polymers reinforced with glass fiber and polymers reinforced with carbon fiber was carried out on a cube and a cylinder in the laboratories of Baghdad. 36 samples were taken with fiber percentages of 1.0, 2.5 and 5.0 % by weight of cement. The methodology of this study included the use of composite polymer fibers in the external reinforcement of concrete ...

Development of nanotechnologies allows to solve a number of problems of construction materials science: increase in strength, durability, abrasion and corrosion resistance that determines operational reliability of building constructions. Generally it is achieved due to nanoparticles that modify the structure and properties of the existing materials or products and are entered ...

Лазерный разряд, полученный при помощи конической оптики, является наиболее подходящим для образования проводящих каналов в атмосфере. Чаще всего рассматриваются только два типа лазеров для формирования высоко-проводящих каналов в атмосфере, управляемых лазерным разрядом: импульсные субмикросекундные газово-химический лазеры (CO2, DF) и короткоимпульсные твердотельные ультрафиолетовые ...

To ensure quality of dry friction clutch engagement in automated mechanical transmission during vehicle starting-up and maneuvering the control range of clutch actuator has to be maximum wide. It depends on the consistency of the clutch actuator geometric parameters with the electrical characteristics of the used solenoid valves, the output stage of the controller and the PWM ...
