CVT has a long history in racing with the last notable attempt by Williams in F1 in 1993. Many automation aids were banned in 1994. Just Google for: Williams F1 CVT.
The durability issues have been mostly related to frictional belt CVTs. Audi's multi-chain design is able to handle more power, and Toyota's reapplication of the standard differential/planetary-gear system as a CVT answers your meshed physical gearing need. Here's a description of the latest gen PSD.
As we've all experienced, constant acceleration cannot be really felt whether it be in the elevator, standing on the surface of a rotating Earth, or in a CVT driven car. So ya, pretty weird.:)
What speeds do you pulse-n-glide on? There's an upper limit (usually highway speeds) where pulse-n-glide isn't really useful because air drag begins to dominate the normal frictional losses besides probably running above the efficiency peak of the engine.
Otherwise, PnG technique should work with any car at slower speeds, especially these racers of TFA.
You forgot Tesla's electric car that ran on either broadcast power or power from the air/Earth with technology similiar to Moray's. It seems much of Tesla's paperwork was seized by the Office of Alien Property immediately after Tesla's death (even though Tesla was a US citizen), and it's unknown how much of his paperwork "disappeared" even though "much" of it was returned to his nephew.
Also, was the VTEC-E mpg based on the Japanese or American cycle? We're going to see some car coming from Japan in a few years that'll be close to 100MPG, but that's on the Japanese cycle where their highways are closer to 30mph than our 65mph. So, that 100MPG engine would translate to something like 65MPG here in the States.
The engine isn't running at its most efficient conversion of gas to energy unless it's operating within its most efficient point in its powerband - a HP plateau between certain RPM markers. Check it out on a dyno. So yes, it would be more efficient to accelerate harder from a stop with the RPMs within the powerband, coast, then rinse-n-repeat.
I remember when Electronic Arts was EOA and stood for Electronic Arts. Arts such as Deluxe Paint *, Pinball Construction Set, Chuck Yeager's Flight Simulator..
Now it's nothing more than Electronic Sports and goddamn if it has anything that tries to be anything else.
When was the last time you did your research, early-1990s?
Every modern hybrid today (Prius 1997, Insight 1999) have used regenerative braking, or have tried to.
o Highway? Toyota's HSD (Hybrid Synergy Drive) puts the engine into maximal efficient RPMs while you drive and then pumps the excess energy into the battery. o Slowing down? Engine drag is simulated through regenerative braking until battery is overcharged, then it goes into compression drag. o Engine braking especially going downhill? Aggressive regenerative braking until the battery is full. o Coming off the freeway? Again, very light regenerative braking before you even hit the brakes.
It's not just plain red-tail light regenerative braking you're thinking of.
Supercaps? That would be nice, but I think Toyota threw out that idea already. There's a few modders on the Prius using Can-view to watch the voltages going in and out of the plain NiMH system as well as total state of charge.
Even Wells Fargo and Yahoo have stopped doing this. They used to host http to https form login, but stopped because that's obviously not secure enough due to the lack of site certificate verification, and that "transit" step where somebody could have injected something.
I personally don't like the feeling that it could have been sniffed over the wire, although technically it shouldn't be possible with a POST to https.
mod parent up. Makes perfect sense for more polar water to pile up as an equatorial ring. A tire tube of 'fat' for the Earth.
Remember, the Earth is never exactly spherical due to this AND the Sun and Moon combined, or on opposite sides, pulling "up" the equatorial waters. It's called 'tides'.
Should be able to predict that tide levels have been rising in a parallel trend, but not equal levels due to water displacing less than ice.
As I understand it, you're allowed to redistribute the code, but you are not allowed to relicense code whose copyright you do not own. If the original owners wanted to relicense sure, but you sure aren't allowed nor is anybody else.
Most of the times in America, we wait for disasters to happen before we spend enormous amounts off money and time to fix them.
Not when Clinton put an emergency trained and experienced person in charge of FEMA. Check out the proactive Project Impact and how Bush killed it. BTW, New Orleans proactively decided to stay out of Project Impact.
The scientific process, especially in a PhD dissertation, requires you to prove a negative in order to prove the positive.
You prove: o component A by itself has no effect (negative) o something A by itself has no effect (negative) o component A mixed with something A has an effect (positive) o component A mixed with anything else B has no effect (negative) o anything else B mixed with something A has no effect (negative)
Hey, maybe you are a rug and a sheep who doesn't mind getting stuff stolen from you or just getting taken advantage of all the time, but this guy wasn't and did all he should to get his stuff back. There's something called sticking up for yourself.
If you don't fight for your rights and your stuff, what are you doing in this life?
I knew about this, but it's such a back-alley hack. Why can't Subversion just make it part of the offical featureset? It's old enough since bugtracker entries date back to 2001.
I think they're in denial that they forgot something in their design, but it hasn't imploded yet for them to care yet.
I even went through a bad batch of TYs where Nero said it was all golden, and most of the files were corrupted. I even got a swap from Plextor for my old Plextor 712A because there was something wrong with the laser calibration and burns came out consistently with high error rates with Plextools and the other utility for liteon drives even though burn speeds were low 4x and 8x, and I always was using the latest firmware.
It did get better with the drive swap, but the Plextor was inconsistent enough that I went to a recent NEC 3540 and it's been fine since.
So first try turning down the burn speed because there's no need to be burning at max speed IMO if your IO can't handle it anyways. Then check your firmware, and how consistent your error rate is with Plextools or Nero's Disk Quality scan in CD-DVD Speed utility and in a separate drive.
C1/PIE,C2/PIF errors should be consistently low for lower speeds, and only ramp up a little at higher speeds. If it consistently spikes over the max safe error threshold, get better media, or a different burner.
Maybe if you stuck to reliable media like Taiyo-Yuden instead.
I personally don't have burn failures period. At worse, 1 in 1/100. Even if there's failures, the cost is counted in pennies making backups so cheap it's pointless to quibble over it.
Slashdot Mirror
and One BSD to rule them all ... and in the darkness bind them.
No longer will they be the 3 blind mice group, someday?

We're saying the same thing here. Back when the logo looked like EOA, not the corporate name was EOA.
The what was this all about? http://www.frank.germano.com/blackbox.htm0 &ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official
Or these: http://www.google.com/search?q=tesla's+car&start=
Too much documentation to be: made up, never came to fruition, physically impossible.
Need I say it? Open-source version of UNIX for Intel?
Some revisionist history going here. It's like BSD isn't only dead, it never existed.
FreeBSD!

Current vehicle engines have this strange quirk.
The engine isn't running at its most efficient conversion of gas to energy unless it's operating within its most efficient point in its powerband - a HP plateau between certain RPM markers. Check it out on a dyno. So yes, it would be more efficient to accelerate harder from a stop with the RPMs within the powerband, coast, then rinse-n-repeat.
It's called Pulse-n-Glide by the Prius marathoners, and also on Wikipedia.
Constant speed isn't the most efficient way to use a internal combustion engine (ICE), although it certainly is the easiest.

Mod parent down.
Most full-hybrids today have regenerative braking: Honda(Insight, Civic & Accord Hybrid), Toyota(Prius, Camry Hybrid, Highlander Hybrid), Lexus(RX400h, GS450h), etc at a decent enough efficiency level.

How is the possible?
As I understand it, you're allowed to redistribute the code, but you are not allowed to relicense code whose copyright you do not own. If the original owners wanted to relicense sure, but you sure aren't allowed nor is anybody else.
component A is not the same as something A. If you prefer, use labels C(a) vs S(a).
Even PBS/Frontline's detail how FEMA was gutted.
The scientific process, especially in a PhD dissertation, requires you to prove a negative in order to prove the positive.
You prove:
o component A by itself has no effect (negative)
o something A by itself has no effect (negative)
o component A mixed with something A has an effect (positive)
o component A mixed with anything else B has no effect (negative)
o anything else B mixed with something A has no effect (negative)
You're allowed to port, but you're not allowed to relicense it.

Ya, I've seen that..

Unless you're talking about 3D fully rotating, with shiny environmentally reflective surfaces, all zoom BattleChess!
