Altair’s HyperWorks CAE technology assists the development of a light weight and fuel efficient city car

A study has found that no less than half of all machine lubricants currently used seeps into soil and waters or evaporates into the atmosphere. According to a research team of chemists, mechanical engineers and environmentalists from the RWTH in Aachen, the estimates for Germany alone consume 250,000 tonnes per year, This corresponds to the amount required to fill 8,000 tankers.

Express Logic, Inc. is scheduled to present details of its Preemption-Threshold Scheduling (PTS) in a class at Embedded World 2012 in Nuremberg, Germany. Although preemption is how real-time systems guarantee responsiveness to time-critical events, Express Logic has devised a way to minimize the number of preemptions, while preserving the systems’ schedulability.

Yuasa Battery Sales (UK) Ltd has recently moved its operations to new offices, warehousing and distribution facilities in Swindon from Ebbw Vale in South Wales. The move was prompted by the opportunity to radically improve the company’s logistics and carbon footprint while the Ebbw Vale manufacturing facility continues to focus on its core activity of producing industrial batteries only.

Fears over the UK’s ability to generate sufficient electricity over the next 10 years were highlighted in the energy regulator Ofgem’s recent Project Discovery consultation. According to Ofgem, the shrinking capacity of the UK electricity market means that we not only face the prospect of insufficient supply to meet demand but energy prices rising by up to 25% by 2020 – and spiking even higher in the interim.
