USB 2.0 isn't asfast as an internal hard drive connection such as ATA, and this interface is the most obviousbottleneck in an externally booted system. USB 2.0 is rated at 60 MB/s, while the Serial ATAdrives common in new desktop computers can reach at least 150 MB/s, depending on whichversion of SATA is being used. While it seems that this speed difference should severely affectsystem performance, the only time that testers noted a difference was during boot time, probablydue to caching. To

. For the non-functionalized alumina, the procedure involves the ultrasonic agitation of composition(s) (%wtof resin weight) of alumina in EPON™ resin. A 500W sonicator with a 20Khz frequency is usedto disperse alumina in the low viscosity resin. Sonication is carried out at 40% maximumamplitude with a unit mass rate of 3-5 mins. / gm of alumina. High amplitude and elongatedsonication can cause localized elevation of temperature in resin. This rate is also higher thanalumina dispersion in water and methanol mixture due to the higher viscosity of the resin system.It is also important to note that mechanical stirring is also carried out during sonicationprocedure to circulate the mixture and to avoid intercalated dispersion.

IAT hasdonated several vehicles to Honduras and in Africa.2005-2006 BUV challenge given by IAT was to design a 3-wheel vehicle based on the rear-end(i.e. the bed, axle, suspension, wheels, frame, etc) of a small pick-up truck (Chevy S-10, FordRanger, etc) cut near the cab/bed interface. It was also required to design a rear ambulance unitto be attached to the rolling chassis. In addition to cost, design emphasis was on drive train, easeof assembly, durability, serviceability, and the ambulance unit itself.

The ECUcommunicates with the VCS using the CAN bus.Communications between most subsystems in the vehicle is over a CAN (controller areanetwork) bus. This communication is at two separate frequencies, 250Kb/s for the fuelcell, and 500Kb/s for the rest of the vehicle. A National Instruments PXI system is usedto monitor and adjust the various components of the communications system. A blockdiagram of the overall system is shown in Figure 2. Page 12.1079.5 4

However this is no longer going to remain thedominant age as according to Pink, this type of society can be easily maintained. In a recentnewspaper article the author commented on how 25% of Irelands I.T. jobs are being filled byimmigrants.

engineering relate to domestic life inthe 18th and early 19th centuries (Kohlstedt35, 1999). In fact, the study of botany was framedfor and by women in the late 18th century, who used their knowledge in gardening, herbalmedicine and food preparation. Women living in rural areas, through organizations such asthe Women’s Institute in Ontario, shared knowledge about science relating to the home –such as farm work, health, food and hygiene issues. This would give birth to schools such asthe MacDonald Institute at the University of Guelph (McPhedran40, 2003).Engineering was a men’s club until the late 1800’s, at which time very few women took upthe discipline. In 1893, only three women had ever received an engineering degree in theUnited States (Lebold

It was chosen due to its overall complexity, time necessary for assembly and service,expensive materials, and overall number of parts. A modular compressor concept was introducedand a preliminary design [on a conceptual level] was conducted to show the possible benefits ofsuch a concept.Background and Literature Survey for the Modular Compressor projectThe original gas turbine modular concept2 was first developed in the early 1960’s
