Abstract:

In the drag racing environment, maximizing tractive effort is essential to competitive performance. Anti-squat is a transient vehicle suspension parameter which can dramatically affect tractive effort available at the motorcycle drive tire. This paper addresses the design of a four-link rear suspension for a drag racing motorcycle to provide anti-squat, which increases rear tire traction, thereby improving vehicle acceleration performance. Utilizing PC based CAD, finite element analysis and dynamic system analysis software, a motorcycle rear suspension system was designed, built and tested und

Abstract:

At a cyclist drag racing champions greatly affect the speed of the bike, especially on the use of racing bike helmets. If the aerodynamic force from the racing bike helmet is getting smaller than the use of helmets on the bike racing will be more optimal and will affect the rate of the racer. In this study, numerical simulations were used to investigate the magnitude of the drag force that occurs around the surface of the helmet. With CFD software, 4 variations of attack angle 0°, 10°, 20° and 30° and variations of Reynold number 7.14x104, 1.00x105, and 1.16x105 are simulated to determine the

Abstract:

To meet the needs of racing, both drag bike racing and road races, vehicles or motorcycles with conditions still standing are not enough. Therefore, it is necessary to modify certain parts, including modifying the chassis, body, and engine. The three parts are very related. Of the three parts, the most priority is modifying the engine because the engine is the main factor in a vehicle or motorcycle. What is needed in modifying the engine is improving engine performance or maximizing engine performance. In this study, the author chose a four-stroke kharisma motorcycle because the modification d

The rear spoiler is one of the main components that affect the aerodynamic performance of the F1 racing car. At present, numerical simulation technology is becoming a research hotspot to study the aerodynamic performance of the F1 racing car. In this paper, we discuss the F1 racing car rear spoiler airfoil selection and three-dimensional design and use three-dimensional simulation software to calculate the impact of different attack angles, velocity, and airfoils on the rear spoilers drag force and negative lift. The results show that the RAE2822 airfoil has a good lift-drag ratio at low veloc

Abstract:

Among teenagers, the case of illegal racing is a phenomenon that often occurs. Illegal racing is an activity to compete with speed either by motorbike or by car which is carried out on public streets. The perpetrators of illegal racing are usually teenagers. They have a reason because of the lack of a place to channel their hobbies. So, they prefer to do it on the highway. Since the advent of the automotive trend among teenagers, many teenagers prefer to keep themselves busy with automotive hobbies, especially motorcycles, rather than doing brawls that are detrimental to society.

Drug metabolism is a specialised subset of xenobiotic metabolism, pertaining to the breakdown and elimination of pharmaceutical drugs. The enzymes involved in these pathways are the cytochrome P450 family of isozymes. Metabolism is an important factor in determining the pharmacological effects of drugs. The main aim of this study was to develop a system whereby the major metabolites of drugs can be produced in vitro. An in vitro system was developed and optimised using commercially prepared microsomes from rat liver and coumarin (by monitoring its conversion to 7-hydroxycoumarin) as a model. T

Abstract:

This chapter aims to show how liquid racism (Weaver 2016) emerges when assimilationist viewpoints are argumentatively normalized in mainstream (right- and left-wing) political-parliamentary discourses in Greece. I analyze two seminal speeches given by two Greek political leaders, namely PM Kyriakos Mitsotakis (New Democracy; European Peoples’ Party) and Opposition leader, Alexis Tsipras (SYRIZA; European Left), on October 31, 2019, in the Greek parliament; that is, the very day of the vote in favor of the bill proposed by the Ministry of Citizen’s Protection, which outlined the terms according to which international protection would be awarded by the Greek authorities to ‘foreign’ populations. I draw on the framework of Critical Discourse Studies (Wodak and Meyer 2016), employing tools from Social Semiotics (van Leeuwen 2008) and the Argumentum Model of Topics (Rigotti and Greco 2019) to critically examine standpoint-argument couplings inferred in the discursive representations of social actors and realized in the relevant speeches. I conclude that the two Greek politicians under study converge to claims in favor of the assimilation of migrant populations to the Greek context and therefore (re)produce liquid racism, despite their seemingly antiracist attitude and their different ideological and political stance.

Abstract Recent energy crisis has forced researchers to design fuel-efficient automobiles, where one of the main critical changes is to reduce aerodynamics drag created by fluid friction. At high speed, aerodynamics drag, especially the pressure drag, creates a substantial backward force, and hence, unwanted excess fuel is consumed to counterbalance this dragging effect, which hinders designing fuel-efficient automobiles. Hence, to mitigate this pressure drag, here in this work, numerical analyses have been done (i) to examine drag coefficient changes through incorporating aerodynamic vents at

Prior to 2014, prescription opioids have been the primary driver of opioid-related mortality. In recent years, the United States has seen a steady decline in the rate of opioid prescription. At the same time, there has been a significant increase in the number of deaths attributed to non-prescription opioids such as heroin, illicitly manufactured fentanyl, and fentanyl analogues. In 2017, among 70,237 drug overdose deaths nationally, 47,600 (67.8%) involved opioids, wit
