Ben Spies: "Aku Belajar Banyak Dari Valentino Rossi!"

Thursday, March 31, 2011 | 0 comments

Pastinya masih ada hal yang mengganjal di hati kecil Ben Spies dengan balapan di Qatar yang lalu. Pembalap Amerika ini berharap bisa finish lebih baik dari posisi keenam, bahkan yakin kalau sebenarnya dia bisa mendapatkan podium. Tapi start yang buruk dan kehilangan waktu pada saat berusaha menyalip Rossi membuat mimpinya sirna.

"Aku sudah lama tidak pernah membalap dengan Valentino seperti itu dan dia bukanlah seorang pembalap yang mudah disalip. Dia tahu kalau aku berada di belakangnya dan caranya berkendara membuat dia cukup sulit untuk disalip."

Begitulah komentar dari pembalap yang baru saja naik kelas ke tim pabrikan Yamaha. Hal ini membuat Ben melakukan pendekatan dengan sangat hati-hati, walaupun pada salah satu titik mereka saling bersentuhan dan kaki Rossi terpeleset dari pijakan kakinya.
"Aku belajar banyak tentang teknik pengereman dan racing line yang diambilnya. Dia sangat bagus pada pengereman dan dia benar-benar tidak memiliki kelemahan. Dia tahu pada saat aku membuntutinya, tapi aku harus sabar karna kamu tidak bisa langsung menyerangnya dan berharap bisa lari darinya. Langkah Rossi memang tidak secepat aku, tapi butuh kerja keras untuk bisa melewatinya. Itu adalah pelajaran bagus dan merupakan balapan yang seru."

Thermal Cameras in Luxury Cars

| 0 comments

Infrared thermal cameras are able to detect radiation in the infrared range of an electromagnetic spectrum. Thermal cameras provide visibility solutions in an otherwise un-illuminated environment by tracking variations in temperature. Warm objects stand out against cooler backgrounds when viewed through an infrared thermal camera. Technological developments have now allowed its applications in luxury cars, buses, and trucks as night vision systems.

Statistics show that the majority of fatal accidents happen at night. The risk of driving at night is two times higher than driving in the daytime. Limited lighting conditions on expressways and highways, judgment errors of speed or distance, and driving into headlights of oncoming traffic all pose threats to drivers. Infrared thermal cameras equip drivers with a clearer vision on dark and unlit roads. These night vision systems rely on either of the two technologies that are currently available in the market. Near-infrared (NIR)
radiation, also known as active infrared, works through infrared headlights that illuminate the road ahead, enabling drivers to see converted images of people or animals that are displayed on the screen more clearly. Far-infrared (FIR) systems register the difference in heat or infrared radiation emitted by the objects and do not require any independent source of light from the vehicle.
Thermal cameras have broader applications since drivers not only get the benefit of clearer night vision, but can also detect obstacles on the road, other cars, and sharp bends much sooner, giving them more reaction time.
Modern-day buses and trucks have also become luxury vehicles considering the huge investments in maintaining and protecting them. Such large vehicles in accidents can cause serious damage. Not only does this lead to ruined vehicles, but also to loss of expensive cargo, increased environmental risks in case of hazardous goods, and, most importantly, loss of lives. The ever-increasing demand for infrared thermal cameras for such lateral applications has resulted in effectively bringing down the costs of equipment.
Technological advances in this field now enable integration of real-world images with thermal ones. Newer models such as the TI 45 thermal cameras amalgamate two images to form a picture-in-picture output. The implementation of this can exponentially benefit a driver. The TI 45 also allows users to set alarm limits over the visible light image to identify objects exceeding temperature limits. Thermal cameras such as this also find extensive applications in military and industrial set-ups.

Efek Tidur dengan mendengarkan radio atau menyialakan TV

| 0 comments


Tidur dengan televisi atau radio menyala ternyata dapat membantu meningkatkan kemampuan mengingat Anda. Studi mengatakan bahwa bunyi-bunyian yang masuk ke dalam otak akan menguatkan memori ketika terbangun.
Dalam studi yang menghubungkan antara suara atau bunyi dengan ingatan, peneliti dari Northwestern University, Chicago menemukan bahwa suara yang masuk ke dalam tidur yang lelap akan menguatkan spatial memori atau ruang ingatan dalam otak.

Peneliti memberikan suatu tayangan pada suatu layar yang berisi 50 objek terhadap partisipan sebelum tertidur. Setelah partisipan tidur, peneliti memberikan beberapa jenis suara seperti suara kucing dan suara lainnya. Saat
suara itu diputar, partisipan tidak bisa mendengar karena berada dalam fase tidur lelap atau dalam.
Hasilnya, setelah partisipan terbangun, mereka bisa mengerjakan tes memori dengan sangat baik. Mereka bisa mengingat letak objek itu dalam layar dan menghafal lebih banyak objek daripada partisipan lain yang tidak diperdengarkan suara saat tidur.

"Studi ini membuktikan bahwa otak seseorang akan terus bekerja ketika tidur. Fase tidur lelap adalah fase yang sangat penting untuk mengingat sesuatu," ujar John Rudoy, seorang peneliti yang ikut dalam studi tersebut, seperti dilansir
Healthday.

"Ketika tidur, otak akan memproses apapun yang terjadi pada hari itu. Apa yang dia makan, siaran televisi yang dia tonton, orang-orang yang dia temui, semuanya muncul kembali ketika tidur," kata Ken Paller, profesor dan psikolog dari
Weinberg College of Arts and Sciences at Northwestern.

Tapi yang menentukan ingatan itu diaktifkan kembali atau tidak adalah kita sendiri. Kejadian yang paling berkesan dan terjadi beberapa jam sebelumnya adalah bagian yang paling mudah diputar kembali dalam tidur. Studi ini dipublikasikan dalam Journal Science dan dijadikan dasar untuk menjadi satu alternatif pengobatan bagi mereka yang punya masalah dalam ingatan.

"Kesimpulannya adalah memori akan diproses selama tidur. Meski kita masih belum mengerti sepenuhnya proses apa yang sebenarnya terjadi dalam otak yang membuat ingatan menguat saat ada bunyi-bunyian, namun yang pasti hal itu patut dicoba jika seseorang ingin memiliki ingatan kuat," ujar Paller.

Rossi Bersiap Untuk Jerez

| 0 comments

Valentino Rossi memang masih terkendala dengan kondisi bahunya yang belum pulih 100% dan biasanya Jerez selalu menjadi salah satu trek yang paling sulit untuk motor Ducati. Setelah debut di tahun 2003, Ducati mendapatkan kemenangan di Jerez pada tahun 2006 bersama Loris Capirossi, sementara pada era 800cc Ducati hanya mampu meraih podium bersama Casey Stoner pada tahun 2009.

Lain cerita Ducati, lain pula cerita Valentino Rossi. Pembalap legendaris Italia ini pernah menang sebanyak tujuh kali di trek Andalusia ini, lima diantaranya dimenangkan di kelas MotoGP dan ditambah lagi dengan tiga podium yang pernah diperolehnya di sirkuit sepanjang 4,4 kilometer ini.

Berikut komentar The Doctor:
"Qatar merupakan trek yang sulit untuk bahuku, coba kita lihat di Jerez nanti. Dari sudut pandang fisik, kelihatannya akan sedikit lebih mudah walaupun aku harus sabar dulu. Saat ini aku terus melakukan latihan di gym untuk meningkatkan kekuatan dan ketahananku, terutama setelah balapan di Spanyol ini karena balapan di Jepang ditunda, jadi kita punya waktu sekitar satu bulan untuk memulihkan diri secara signifikan. Dari sudut pandang teknis, Jerez bukanlah sirkuit favorit Ducati, tapi kita lihat saja nanti. Aku selalu menyukai sirkuit ini dan pastinya kami akan melakukan hal yang lebih baik daripada di Qatar sebelumnya. Sekarang aku akan bekerja pada set up motor, memanfaatkan apa yang telah kami pelajari dari balapan pertama yang mana memberikan kami beberapa solusi bagus."

Tim uji coba Ducati dengan test rider Franco Battaini dan manajer tim Vittoriano Guareschi telah melakukan uji coba di Jerez pada awal bulan ini, paling tidak mereka memiliki data yang bisa membantu. Untuk melihat kemajuan Ducati secara signifikan, pastinya kita harus menunggu sampai GP Portugal, karena Ducati akan mendapatkan update chassis dan para engineer di pabrik Ducati juga sedang bekerja pada sisi elektronik untuk memperbaiki situasi yang kurang memuaskan pada saat ini.

EU plans to ban all petrol and diesel cars from cities to force drivers to go ‘green’

| 0 comments

By Daily Mail Reporter


A more common sight? Electric parking bays would become the norm under the new EU rules


The vast majority of British motorists will be outlaws in their own land under controversial new EU plans to ban petrol and diesel powered cars from cities.

But critics said the latest Brussels blueprint to force people into 'green' cars, slash dependence on oil and tackle climate change, was bamboozling drivers and taking the European Union into "the realms of fantasy".

The European Commission says its plan to drive out 'conventionally fuelled' petrol and diesel cars within 40 years and replace them with 'clean' alternatives such as electric or hydrogen powered vehicles is necessary to save the planet.


It is vital to cut pollution and stop global warming which scientists blame on carbon dioxide (CO2) - the so-called 'greenhouse gas' emitted from car exhausts.

The Commission is calling for a 50 per cent shift away from conventionally fuelled cars in urban areas by 2030, phasing them out altogether in cities by 2050.

Brussels says the aim is also to achieve "essentially CO2-free movement of goods in major urban centres by 2030".

Setting out another major goal, it adds that by 2050 Europe should "move close to zero fatalities in road transport", with an interim target of halving all road casualties by 2020.

Coupled with proposals and targets covering road, rail and air travel, the Commission says its transformation of the European transport system can increase mobility and cut congestion and emissions.

But motoring groups said it smacked of yet another assault on the motorist by authorities using 'green' measures as a smokescreen for more taxes and charges noting:'Drivers don't know whether they're coming or going with environmental measures'.

They also noted wryly that with soaring oil and pump prices and fuel taxes, motorists face being priced off the road anyway.

And Christopher Monckton, transport spokesman for the UK Independence Party' said: "The proposals suggested by Commission take us into the realms of fantasy. They want to ban cars from cities, they want to force everybody onto rail and canals, it is if they have been taken over by the shade of the Victorian engineers.

'They may as well call for an end to wars and large subsidised chocolate cakes for pre-school infants as to make these impossible self aggrandising statements".

But EU Transport Commissioner Siim Kallas defended the green policy drive: "The widely held belief that you need to cut mobility to fight climate change is simply not true.

Riverboats would be encouraged as one of the main alternatives to petrol cars

"Competitive transport systems are vital for Europe's ability to compete in the world, for economic growth, job creation and for people's everyday quality of life."

He insisted: "Curbing mobility is not an option; neither is business as usual. We can break the transport system's dependence on oil without sacrificing its efficiency and compromising mobility. It can be win-win."

He was unveiling plans adopted by the Commission on Monday for a 'Single European Transport Area'.

The measures could "dramatically reduce Europe's dependence on imported oil and cut carbon emissions in transport by 60% by 2050", says the Commission.

Its key goals by 2050 are: no more conventionally fuelled cars in cities; 40% use of low-carbon fuels in aviation; at least a 40% cut in shipping emissions; and a 50% shift of medium distance inter-city passenger and freight journeys from road to rail and water-borne transport.

The document says that by 2050 the majority of medium-distance passenger journeys - those above 186 miles- should be by rail. More than half of road freight travelling that distance or greater should move to rail or boat and up to 30% by 2030.

All core network airports should be connected to the rail network by 2050, with all core seaports "sufficiently connected to the rail freight and, where possible, inland waterway system".

For longer-distance travel, and intercontinental freight, air and sea travel will benefit from "new engines, fuels and traffic management systems (which) will increase efficiency and reduce emissions", says the document.

The use of low-carbon fuels in aviation should reach 40% by 2050, with a complete modernisation of Europe's air traffic control system already achieved by 2020 to deliver the "Single European Sky".

Already crowded transport systems will become even more heavily used and congested


Edmund King, the AA's president said: 'Drivers don't know whether they're coming or going with environmental measures. One minute they're supposed to be cutting CO2 and switch to diesel, the next they get pilloried and taxed for doing just that.

'The reality is that, by 2050, fossil fuel will be so expensive that a new approach to personal mobility will be inevitable. At present, pollution scare tactics are simply a cover for more local taxation.'

But Friends of the Earth's transport campaigner, Richard Dyer, said: ‘Weaning our transport system off its oil addiction is essential to protect people from soaring fuel prices and the planet from climate change.'

The eurosceptic think-tank Open Europe criticised the plan: 'This goes to show the extent of the EU's ambitions to interfere in the UK's national affairs. Banning all petrol-fuelled cars in city centres is an absolutely crazy idea and one that could only have come from unaccountable bureaucrats in the European Commission.'

It added:''The plan also envisages an end to cheap holiday flights from Britain to southern Europe with a target that over 50 per cent of all journeys above 186 miles should be by rail.'

John Hopkins Ready For Jerez

John Hopkins

Rizla Suzuki choose John Hopkins to replace Alvaro Bautista on next round MotoGP at Jerez. John Hopkins will make a return to MotoGP racing and reunited with the Rizla Suzuki team. John Hopkins was on the 4th place on 2007 MotoGP standings.

“I was shocked by what happened to Álvaro, especially after such good winter testing, and I really wish him a speedy and full recovery - I wanted the opportunity to get back on a MotoGP bike, but not under these circumstances,” explained Hopkins, who rode the GSV-R during the Qatar Test, but only for some commercial filming.

“I’m under no illusions that this will be tough weekend for me, as I’ve not been on a GP machine for a couple of years or ridden the new control tyres – except for the filming I did in Qatar a couple of weeks ago – so I realise this will be a step up from what I have been riding recently. The bikes have moved on in the last three years, but when I rode the GSV-R at Losail it seemed so familiar and I immediately had a good feeling, but that was at filming pace, so it’s going to be a lot different at race pace!”

Hopkins continued: “I know the Jerez track well, so it’s not like I need to learn a new circuit and I also know the team well so that that will help a lot. I will certainly be trying as hard as I can to get a good result and make sure that I don’t disappoint anybody – myself included. I want to say a big thank you to Suzuki and Rizla for giving me this opportunity and I intend to pay back their faith with a good performance on my return to MotoGP.”
