Development of motorcycle weight reduction technologies as World No. 1

Motorcycle Helmet Noise and Active Noise Reduction

The incidence of collisions between motorcyclists and other vehicles may be significantly reduced by research that improves the acoustic awareness of cyclists, and thus heightens the ability of cyclists to respond to unexpected incursions from the surrounding traffic. We use our hearing as an early warning system, and hearing swiftly redirects our vision and attention. This shift in gaze is cri...

Selective Catalytic Reduction of CuO/SiO2 Nano-composites towards NO Reduction in Gas-phase

The xerogel samples were prepared by hydrolysis and condensation of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) by the sol-gel method. In this investigation, a new molar ratio of H2O/TEOS was determined to be 11.7. Also, the necessary amounts of tri-hydrated copper nitrate and penta-hydrated copper sulfate were added to the solution in such a manner that the concentration of the copper oxide in final solut...
