Special Seminar On High-speed Rail In Florida On May 7, 2010
Apr 20, 2010 – Chicago, (word count: 423)
Since President Obama's January announcement of a $1.25 billion allocation to develop Florida's high speed rail (HSR) system, the state, and the nation, have been abuzz with questions on how best to efficiently spend these funds. Next month, Florida will host a seminar to study the potential benefits in drawing from the expertise of one of the world's best examples of HSR: France. The seminar will take place on Friday, May 7, 2010, at the Marriott Eden Roc Renaissance Hotel and Conference Center in Miami Beach.
The Florida project is expected to be the first "true" American high speed rail line, and its extension towards Miami is already being planned.

The recently patented turbine FeMRaDD can cleanly generate an electrical output of up to several megawatts for systems driven with rotating axes. FeMRaDD is a turbine of variable size that consists of several rotary-dynamic systems that interact with each other. This turbine also produces, thanks to its rotary-dynamic, energy for all systems that use rotating axes, such as those in the aerospace, automotive, railway or the shipbuilding industries. It is used especially in the axial power transmission using various components like the drive shaft or the shaft drive.
