Speed reductions, inequalities, and transport [PDF]
Editor,—We read the editorials in the BMJ and Injury Prevention about speed limits with interest1, 2 and would like to share some of the Scottish experience on speed reduction. Councils throughout Scotland are conducting trials of advisory 20 mph limits as part of a Scottish Executive initiative. In Lothian these are generally in residential areas and

Aerodynamic Drag Reduction on Speed Skating Helmet by Surface Structures
The aerodynamic drag for speed skating helmets with surface structures was investigated in this work by using numerical and experimental methods. Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) research was performed to analyze the detail of the flow field around the ...

Speeding Multicast by Acknowledgment Reduction Technique (SMART) [PDF]
We present a novel feedback protocol for wireless broadcast networks that utilize linear network coding. We consider transmission of packets from one source to many receivers over a single-hop broadcast erasure channel. Our method utilizes a predictive model to request feedback only when the probability that all receivers have completed decoding is ...

Variable-speed tail rotors for helicopters with variable-speed main rotors [PDF]
Variable tail rotor speed is investigated as a method for reducing tail rotor power, and improving helicopter performance. A helicopter model able to predict the main rotor and tail rotor powers is presented, and the flight test data of the UH-60A ...

Let’s Make Ball Balancing Great Again: Why You Should Use Temporary Speed Reduction
Automatic ball balancing is a technique adopted in rotordynamics to reduce unknown rotor unbalance automatically. This technique sounds appealing as it can ease a panoply of balancing issues considerably.

Combined methods for torque variation reduction of high-speed FSPM
Flux switching permanent magnet machine (FSPM) with six slots and four poles (6/4) shows great potential for high-speed operation. However, the 6/4 FSPM suffers from high cogging torque at no load and loaded torque variation.

Network effects of intelligent speed adaptation systems [PDF]
Intelligent Speed Adaptation (ISA) systems use in-vehicle electronic devices to enable the speed of vehicles to be regulated externally. They are increasingly appreciated as a flexible method for speed management and control, particularly in urban areas.

Speed Bumps Impact on Motor Transport Noise
Most accidents are caused by excessive speed or aggressive driver behavior. One of the most popular speed regulation implement is speed bumps. However, there are some problems with speed bumps as well – it has been noticed that speed bumps increase motor

Varying speed of light cosmology from a stringy short distance cutoff [PDF]
It is shown that varying speed of light cosmology follows from a string-inspired minimal length uncertainty relation. Due to the reduction of the available phase space volume per quantum mode at short wavelengths, the equation of state of ...

Design and implementation of speed fluctuation reduction for a ball screw feed system at low-speed operation [PDF]
In the high-precision servo feed system, when the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) is operated at low speed in the classical drive feed system (CDFS), the speed fluctuation caused by the motor torque harmonics seriously affects the speed ...
