Professional Motorsport World (2011) Predictive Lap Timing

PRLog (Press Release) - Sep 05, 2011 - Racelogic has found that using GPS position to align multiple laps for the purpose of predictive lap timing is more accurate than the traditional methods of using distance or time.

The practice of predictive lap timing is not new. Traditionally, circuit data logging systems used roll-ing ferrari distance to enable users to compare different laps to show where improvements can be made. This works well, but relies on the driver maintaining similar racing lines per lap to obtain a meaningful alignment and does not allow users to compare different lines or move off line to overtake a competitor.

UK based Racelogic have found a new method. Using their accurate Video VBOX data logger, they have found that using GPS position to align two laps is more accurate than using distance or time. This is then shown in real time on a high brightness OLED display in clear view of the driver. Racelogic claim this enables the driver to quickly understand the effects of different race techniques on overall lap times.

Although the position data itself may only be accurate to within a few meters, the typical average race speed is well in excess of 30m/sec, cutting errors to less than 1/10th of a second.

To demonstrate, Racelogic's Founder, Julian Thomas, examines two laps of the 2.6km Silverstone National circuit recorded by a professional race driver: "The rolling distance variation was 11.6m even though the lap time difference was only 0.6 seconds," he notes. "This equates to an alignment error when using distance of 0.3 seconds, even on a short track with a consistent driver. On a longer track with an inconsistent driver the error can be over a second." Thomas adds, "But by using GPS position, updated 10 times a second, we can show the real time lap comparison accurate to within 1/10th of a second, regardless of the line taken by the driver or the length of the track."

So how can race drivers and engineers make use of this data? Thomas explains: alfa romeo "With GPS offering such accurate data, we've found that drivers intuitively find ways of cutting times. They use it not only for qualifying, but also in endurance racing to maintain a consistent pace." He adds: "For example, drivers can instantly see the very small but accumulative effect of following a car in the distance to pick up a slight slip-stream, and the effect of relaxing the steering wheel coming onto a straight. Drivers can also now instantly evaluate changes in driving line which is almost impossible when using the time/distance method.

Racelogic's Video VB dodge OX is now available as part of a predictive lap timing display package special offer. On display on Racelogic's stand 4065 at the PMW show and priced at just £1,195 acura + tax, race drivers at all levels are set to benefit from the new technology.

Mission Viejo Infiniti Dealer to Debut Brand New Infiniti JX in the Spring 2012

PRLog (Press Release) - Sep 05, 2011 - The J auto part X Concept was unveiled at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance by Senior Vice President and Chief Creative Officer Shiro Nakamura prior to its display throughout the weekend's activities at the famed Lodge at Pebble Beach.

"The JX Concept advances the Infiniti design language, sharing design cues of the Infiniti Essence concept, yet interprets those elements in ways suitable to the needs of a family luxury crossover," said Nakamura. "From the dramatic front grille and headlight design to the crescent-cut D-pillar and greenhouse shape, the JX Concept shines as a fresh, bold alternative to the many flavors of vanilla c cadillac urrently dominating the three-row luxury crossover segment."

Highlights

Beyond its stunning exterior, the new Infiniti JX Concept is designed to excel in three areas where luxury crossover buyers put an emphasis – interior flexibility and roominess, safety, and innovative hospitality features. In the interior, for example, the production Infiniti JX will offer what is expected to be class-leading roominess, along with a 2nd row seat design that tilts and slides forward providing exceptionally easy 3rd row access.

The Infiniti JX, coming soon for sale at local Infiniti Mission Viejo dealer, http://infiniti-mission-viejo.cardealersale.com/, continues Infiniti's tradition of developing world's first technologies, offering the currently available Blind Spot Intervention and adding a new feature, Backup Collision Intervention. With this technology, when the transmission is in reverse, the JX will help the driver detect crossing objects behind the vehicle and, if necessary, the system will automatically engage the brakes to help avoid a collision.

And, in keeping with Infiniti's "Inspired Performance," the 2012 Infiniti JX will offer a balance of driving exhilaration and fuel efficiency through a combination of a powerful V6 engine and all-wheel or front-wheel drive. The Infiniti JX will also be the first Infiniti to utilize a sport-tuned, but fuel-efficient continuously variable transmission.

The CVT will mimic a step transmission when the Sport mode corsa of the Infiniti drive selector is engaged. Additional information regarding the drivetrain and other systems will be provided at the debut of the production version of the all-new Infiniti JX at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November 2011.

Honeywell Biofuels: Asian Green Technology Holdings Report

PRLog (Press Release) - Sep 05, 2011 - Honeywell subsidiary UOP has begun construction on a biofuels demonstration project in Hawaii that is set to convert forest waste, algae and other cellulosic biomass into transport fuels. The bio-refinery will handle cellulosic biomass, forest residuals and algae to produce biofuels for the transportation industry, upgrading biomass into renewable petrol, diesel and jet fuel. The project has been awarded $25 million (€17.5 million) from the US Department of Energy (DoE) and will help the DoE achieve its goal of reducing the nation's dependence on imported oil. It will also support the Hawaii Clean Energy initiative goal to achieve 70% clean energy by 2030. Initial production at the refinery will begin next year before it starts full operations in 2014. Following the successful demonstration of the technology, it could be scaled up in a 50 million gallon a year commercial-scale refinery, producing drop-in green transportation fuels, and 800 construction jobs and 1,000 new jobs in biomass production and refinery operations. The project i cadillac s part of the DOE's efforts to help spur the creation of the domestic biofuel industry, drive domestic job creation and reduce U.S. dependence on foreign oil. The project is expected to generate 85 jobs.

UOP, a Honeywell company, has also secured a contract from Zhejiang Julong Petrochemical Co (ZJLPC) to provide technology for a new propylene production unit at ZJLPC's facility in Pinghu City in the Zhejiang Province of China. The company will provide engineering design, technology licensing, catalysts, adsorbents, equipment, staff training and technical service for this car news project. The new propane dehydrogenation unit will use UOP's C3 Oleflex technology to convert propane to propylene, a material used in the production of chemicals and materials such as films and packaging. According to UOP, the Oleflex process uses catalytic dehydrogenation to convert propane to propylene. The new unit is expected to start up in 2013 and to produce 450,000 metric tons of propylene annually. UOP is a supplier and licensor of process technology, catalysts, adsorbents, process plants, and consulting services to the pet aston martin ro corsa leum refining, petrochemical and gas processing industries.

UOP, which became a Honywell company in 2005, has been the world leader in developing and delivering technology petroleum refining and gas processing for nearly 100 years. The company claims more than 60 percent of the world's gasoline and 85 percent of biodegradable detergents are made using its technology. In 2007, UOP began work to develop renewable energy. In four years, it has developed UOP/Eni Ecofining technology for the production of Honeywell Green Diesel and then created a process to produce Honeywell Green Jet Fuel. Green Jet Fuel has not only been used by U.S. Naval airplanes in test flights but has also powered the first commercial aircraft to complete a transatlantic flight using biofuel. In 2008, UOP partnered with Ensyn to create biofuel development company Envergent Technologies. With the partnership came Ensyn's trademarked Rapid Thermal Processing (RTP) technology which Enysyn says is the world's "only thermal conversion process that has been commercially proven." RTP converts biomass into liquid biofuel which is further processed using UOP hydroprocessing technology to make transportation fuel.

Analysts at Asian Green Technology Holdings believe that UPO and Honeywell are well on their way to making further progress in biofuels and renewable energies, making them a company to watch.
