Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this project is to obtain a series of improvements in the behaviour of the vehicle's engine. Our principal objectives are to increase the values of torque and power, maintaining the durability and obtain behaviour of the engine that it be easy to drive and powerful at the same time. In order to get these improvements will be necessary use one program of simulation (Lotus Engine Simulation). With these program is possible simulating several configurations and situations and combinations changing the parameters about the camshaft, intake and exhaust manifold. Finally, the result will be compared with the other teams of Formula Student for checking if ours improvements are enough for face up to the competition with guaranty.

Download or read book Engineering Electromagnetics A Simplified Approach written by Dr. D Ganesh Rao C K Narayanappa and published by . This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text is intended for use as an introduction to electromagnetic principles and engineering applications for electrical engineers. The increasing frequencies of analog systems as well as the increasing speeds of digital systems require the designers have a fundamental understanding of the basic electromagnetic principles and laws that are covered in this text. An important guiding principle throughout the preparation of the manuscript of the text was that the course it is intended to be used for will likely be the last course in electromagnetics that the majority of electrical engineering students will take. Due to the vector nature of EM fields, vector algebra is an essential tool for gaining a quantitative understanding of EM concepts and their applications; hence chapter 1 is dedicated for learning the basic operations on vectors and their associated implications. Features Avoids lengthy derivations of theorems, particularly those involving extensive use of vector calculus. Emphasis is on clarity without sacrificing rigor and completeness. Every concept is fortified with detailed examples and abundant illustrations. Each chapter is concluded with a variety of exercise problems with answers to allow the students to test their understanding of the material covered in each chapter. Provides a solid grasp of electromagnetic fundamentals by emphasizing physical understanding supported by a lot of graded worked out examples. Chapter summary for a quick review before tests and examinations. Clearly marked sections and subsections make the text clearer and are not intimidating to the reader.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The English language is a battlefield. Since the age of Shakespeare, arguments over correct usage have been bitter, and have always really been about contesting values-morality, politics, and class. The Language Wars examines the present state of the conflict, its history, and its future. Above all, it uses the past as a way of illuminating the present. Moving chronologically, the book explores the most persistent issues to do with English and unpacks the history of "proper" usage. Where did these ideas spring from? Who has been on the front lines in the language wars? The Language Wars examines grammar rules, regional accents, swearing, spelling, dictionaries, political correctness, and the role of electronic media in reshaping language. It also takes a look at such details as the split infinitive, elocution, and text messaging. Peopled with intriguing characters such as Jonathan Swift, Lewis Carroll, and Lenny Bruce, The Language Wars is an essential volume for anyone interested in the state of the English language today or its future.

Download or read book Breaking Free of Nehru written by Sanjeev Sabhlok and published by Breaking Free of Nehru. This book was released on 2008 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book discusses the impact of Nehruvian socialism on freedom in India. It reflects on India s post-independence experience and finds that India needs to move well beyond socialist paradigms towards freedom and innovation if it wishes to retrieve its status as a great nation. It then traces the causes of India`s political and bureaucratic corruption, its poverty, and its large, illiterate population. The book then proposes numerous ways to transform India`s governance thorough competitive, freedom-based, solutions. Solutions recommended range from a re-write of the Indian Constitution in order to make it simpler and clearly focused on freedom, to the radical restructure of the Indian public services based on modern public sector reforms across the world. It advocates state funding of elections, raising the salaries of politicians significantly, freeing the labour market, imposing carbon taxes on pollution, seeking compensatory payments from developed countries for their prior carbon emissions, and complete privatisation of school and university education. It argues that India can, and should, aspire to be the world s best in everything it does. I believe that no Indian should settle for anything less than that.
Download or read book The Otherness of English written by Probal Dasgupta and published by SAGE Publications Pvt. Limited. This book was released on 1993-05-25 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Otherness of English offers a unique interpretation of the content and useage of the English language in India, specifically commenting on the mode of its presence. The author presents an interdisciplinary account of the role English plays in the general process of modernization. Starting with the sociolinguistic notion of diglossia and the geo-linguistic notion of a southern and eastern Asian linguistic area, the author clearly demonstrates how English occupies a functional slot in India's linguistic development. This impressive volume will be of special interest to scholars in the fields of sociolinguistics, education, sociology, political science, and English literature. "... a brilliant intellectual tour de force. It analyses the role, functioning, and nature of English in India, and is a provocative challenge to any scholar concerned with English in 'development', diglossia, 'World Englishes', and processes of indigenization, or at a more theoretical level with the role of language in traditional, modernizing, and post-modern societies.... Dasgupta's argument draws on a daunting range of theoretical approaches, and his language rivals Isaiah Berlin's in complexity and lexical richness. The book is coherent, well-signposted, and lucid." --Applied Linguistics "An eminently readable, engaging and engaged book that wittily reformulates current nationalistic cliches of a Leftist rather than a Hindutva bent....The sensitivity to style and language in the presentation of the argument, is so rich in digression and detail and an entirely pleasant, superior irony." --Contributions to Indian Sociology "Professor P. Dasgupta's The Otherness of English emphatically dispels doubts and dogmas that bedevil English language and literature studies in India, and effectively interprets the real function and role of English in the post-independent, post-modern, and pan-Indian context . . . The book will be of immense relevance for researchers in socio-linguistics, language development and planning." -The Journal of Indian Writing in English "Dasgupta's inter-disciplinary analysis of English in the context shaped by recent work in diverse domains is interesting and though-provoking." -South Asian Language Review "A bold book. . . . He explores a number of fascinating themes, on each of which he has something illuminating to say." --The Statesman "Dasgupta's book is a brilliant intellectural tour de force. It analyses the role, functioning, and nature of English in India, and is a provocative challenge to any scholar concerned with English in 'development', diglossia, 'World Englishes', and processes of indigenization, or at a more theoretical level with the role of language in traditional, modernizing, and post-modern societies. Dasgupta's argument draws on a daunting range of theoretical approaches, and his language rivals Isaiah Berlin's in complexity and lexical richness. The book is cerebally demanding, but coherent, well-signposted, and lucid. The final summare is eminently accessible, and might with profit be read initially." --Robert Phillipson in Applied Linguistics
