The automotive industry is undergoing a transformative shift towards electric vehicles (EVs), driven by environmental concerns and technological advancements. One critical aspect of EV design is the development of lightweight yet robust components, including 3D vehicle wheels. This research explores the implementation of generative models in Computer-Aided Design (CAD) systems to optimize the design of 3D vehicle wheels for electric vehicles. Through the use of generative design and additive manufacturing, we aim to create vehicle wheels that are energy-efficient, aesthetically pleasing, and structurally sound. Electric vehicles are gaining popularity due to their environmental benefits and reduced operating costs, making lightweight and strong wheels an important design goal. This research proposes a novel approach for designing lightweight and strong 3D vehicle wheels for EVs using generative models. The proposed approach involves the following steps: collect and prepare data, choose a generative model architecture, train the generative model, and generate new wheel designs. The approach methods show potential to revolutionize the design and manufacturing of lightweight and strong 3D-printed wheels for electric vehicles. In conclusion, generative models can be used to design and optimize wheel designs, making it possible to create safer, more efficient, and more cost-effective wheels.

Background: Shared micromobility programs (SMPs) are integral to urban transport in US cities, providing sustainable transit options. Increased use has raised safety concerns, notably about helmet usage among e-scooter and e-bicycle riders. Prior studies have shown that head and upper extremity injuries have risen with SMP adoption, yet data on helmet use remains sparse.

In recent years, a type of layered oxide, LiNi Mn Co O (NMC) where ++ = 1, has become the preferred cathode material for electric vehicle (EV) batteries. Despite some disorder in the crystal structure due to Li/Ni cation mixing, the composition offers a high specific capacity of up to 200 mAh g at 4.3 V vs Li|Li.

Sensors are indispensable tools of modern life that are ubiquitously used in diverse settings ranging from smartphones and autonomous vehicles to the healthcare industry and space technology. By interfacing multiple sensors that collectively interact with the signal to be measured, one can go beyond the signal-to-noise ratios (SNR) attainable by the individual constituting elements. Such techniques have also been implemented in the quantum regime, where a linear increase in the SNR has been achieved via using entangled states.

Lebanon, plagued by political and economic crises, experienced a government collapse in early 2020, leading to an electrical nationwide blackout by 2023. Diesel generators were used to compensate for the absence of power production from the national provider, Electricité du Liban (EDL). To investigate the effect of the crisis on the levels of 16 EPA particle bound polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PPAHs), an annual comparative analysis of three locations within Beirut started in 2022 and ended in 2023.

The increasing concern about global warming and the depletion of fossil fuel reserves has led to a growing interest in alternative energy sources, particularly fuel cells (FCs). These green energy sources convert chemical energy into electrical energy, offering advantages such as quick initiation, high power density, and efficient operation at low temperatures. However, the performance of FCs is influenced by changes in operating temperature, and optimal efficiency is achieved by operating them at their maximum power point (MPP).
