In July, Patil presented his system, called POET (private optimal energy training), at the International Conference on Machine Learning , in Baltimore. For each device and network architecture, POET plugs its variables into Patil’s hand-crafted MILP program, then finds the optimal solution. “A

Within a few years, outreach efforts by these chapter members at local electric vehicle (EV) events had grown to include presentations at conferences around the country, and eventually around the world. I took some surplus parts and motorcycle batteries… it was definitely Rube Goldberg style,” Smith explained.

Roger Duncan gives Campaign Update The Plug-In Partners National Campaign has now been underway for six months. We would like to take this opportunity to report on our efforts to demonstrate to automakers that a market for plug-in hybrid vehicles exists in the United States today. New partners in recent months include: Denton, TX.,

(c) Bottom : Schlieren photographs for early stage of ignition in a constant-volume chamber ignited by (a) spark plug and (b) micro-laser in a stoichiometric mixture. Spark plugs can ignite leaner fuel mixtures, but only by increasing spark energy.
