1. What are the key elements of Tesla Motors’ strategy? Unlike in the use of gasoline internal combustion engines, Tesla motors have revolutionized the motor industry with the introduction of an electric powered automobile. By utilizing the rotor, the Tesla company as engineered their vehicles to propel a better and enhancive feel in the transport arena. To achieve their success in the marketing field, the Tesla Company has had to improve their marketing strategy unlike the strategies used by…

HOW MUCH WILL A TESLA ROOF COST COMPARED TO A TRADITIONAL ROOF? Last year, Tesla revealed its new solar roof, made from durable photovoltaic, tempered glass tiles. Tesla aims to offer four tile styles, though currently only the smooth or textured glass styles are available to consumers (Hope). A Tesla Solar Roof is composed of solar and non-solar tiles, which are sold at different prices (Hope). A major selling point that has been promoted by Tesla is that the cost of Tesla Solar Roof should be…

The stick shift or manual car is rapidly progressing to become a rarity in America. Statistics on knowledgeable drivers to this now outdated concept are around 18 percent of the driving population. How could this once mandatory concept fade into an atypical concept? This is what most people ponder over when they hear this, until they actually try to drive darn contraption… My parents’ have had a pressing belief that everyone should be cognizant of how to drive a stick shift car. I was even…

Phenacetin (C10H13NO2) can be synthesized from various organic compounds. The two primary compounds used for synthesis in this lab were Acetaminophen (C8H9NO2) and p-Phenetidine (C8H11NO). Both of these compounds have similar organic structures, however, Acetaminophen resulted in a more pure form of Phenacetin. Additionally, both of these compounds had to undergo specific chemical reactions, in order to form the same molecular structure as Phenacetin. Finally, these compounds had to be…

Abstract:In today’s automobile world it is a great desirable challenge to build an engine having more power generation & less fuel consumption,which are desired parameters for the increased efficiency of the engine. For getting more power engine needs more fuel and if less fuel consumption is needed the power transmitted will be less. In conventional engines the heat energy using is 30% of produced energy and the remaining energy nearly 70% is going as waste. That means, to get more power from…

Chapter 3 Interleaved Buck Converter System 3.1 INTRODUCTION Interleaved Buck Converter has lots of concentration due to its simple and low control complexity in application. where no isolation and high output current with low ripple. An No isolation DC/DC converter Fig.1.1 shows the step-down DC/DC converter. When switch M is on for the duration of dTs, power is transferred from source to load and filter inductor L is charged. When switch M is off for a duration (1-d)Ts, the diode D…

Rotor and touchdown bearing models Fig. 1 features the case study of the high-speed rotor. The photo was taken after manufacturing of the electric motor part, when the rotor was carried to the laboratory for an experimental modal analysis. During normal operation, the rotor is supported by AMBs. In the dropdown event, the rotor is in contact with touchdown bearings at both ends of the rotor. Fig. 1. Rotor under investigation. In this work, the finite element model of the rotor employs…

Key Markets: The Market segment that has been targeted by Tesla in the first place was Sports premium electric cars with high-end Prices. Indeed, it was confirmed by launching the model Roadster as the First-Tesla product to be marketed. Soon the model S was launched to tackle the Sports premium sedan segment to capture more market share as well as lately the model X for the luxury SUV segment. The premium luxury automobiles industry takes up to 15% of the total automotive industry and with a…

INTRO: Do you have one thing that you are very interested in, or one thing that you really think is pretty cool? I know you do, but have you ever stopped to think how it is made? Toward the end of the year in shop class, we were given the assignment of writing an essay on mass production. We had to select one thing that is mass produced, and write a very detailed five paragraph essay on it. I am a major fan of all things that make music or all things that make noises, I chose acoustic guitars.…

Volt. Both are made by the same company and both are small electric cars are eligible for the $7500 tax credit. However, the Volt is a plug in hybrid, that claims to be a full electric with a battery extender (an internal combustion (IC) engine). The other is a true full electric. As such, the Bolt is wasting no time before gunning for the Tesla Model 3’s prestige, which will be a main competitor when it is released. Chevy’s full electric auto was announced quite a while ago; beginning of this…
