SINGAPORE Nge Ann Polytechnic | 12 May 2010 18:15 to 20:00
Event type: Technical Lecture
VIVACE is a novel approach to extract energy from flowing water currents. For decades, engineers have been trying to prevent Vortex Induced Vibrations (VIV) from damaging offshore equipment and structures. By maximizing and exploiting VIV rather than spoiling and preventing it, VIVACE takes this ‘problem’ and transforms it into a valuable resource for mankind.
VIVACE devices have many potential advantages, which improve installation survivability in hostile underwater environment and enable
Industry sector: Renewable energy.
Zero Energy Building | 14 December 2009 16:45 to 18:30
Event type: Technical Visit
The next IMechE Technical Visit will be on Monday the 14th December 2009 to the Zero Energy Building at the BCA Academy.
At the Zero Energy Building, you will get to see various green building technologies installed to improve energy efficiency in the building. Both passive and active solutions have been implemented. Examples include daylight solutions such as mirror ducts, light shelves and light pipes, atypical air conditioning solutions such as personalized ventilation and displacement coo

Developments in Very High Speed Rail Transport.
In meeting the needs for high speed intercity transport rail passengers today want more than mere high speed. In fact, achieving very high speed (VHS) is now a given. The new priorities in rail transportation for all stakeholders are:
• Energy efficiency
• High capacity
• Customized comfort
• Ecological sensitivity
•
Bombardier is a world leader in rail transportation. This presentation will look at the development of their new VHS
