Self-Introduction Email

Dear Prof. Blackstone I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to introduce myself and provide you with a brief overview of my background. My full name is Muhammad Amir Bin Ashri, most people call me by Amir. I am currently studying engineering in this university to do my best to pursue my academic journey and commitment for my future even though it may be difficult at times. I went through my primary and secondary school in the same institution, Madrasah Irsyad Zuhri Al-Islamiah - a school that focuses on religion and the Arabic language aside from the standard secular academic subjects. Afterwards, I went to and graduated from Nanyang Polytechnic with a diploma in Robotics and Mechatronics. Then, I worked as a technician at my former intern company for seven months up until I got called up for national service. I got posted to the Singapore Police Force and was a Ground Response Force Officer for most of my national service term. I mainly went out for patrol and responded to ...

Kinetic Energy Recovery System (KERS) - Summary Reader Response Draft 3

-
The Kinetic Energy Recovery System (KERS) was originally introduced in Formula 1 in 2009 (AZoM, 2023). It is an electro-mechanical system for vehicles that works by capturing and converting kinetic energy during braking into electrical energy stored in a battery (Racecar Engineering, 2009). Upon acceleration, the stored energy provides an extra power boost, improving overall vehicle performance and efficiency (Baliga, 2023). The battery, which stores the energy, is connected to an electric motor mounted at one end of the engine crankshaft. The driver will then press a KERS button to activate the stored electrical energy to be used as kinetic energy for additional horsepower for a limited duration (AZoM, 2023). The integration of KERS used in mass-produced cars stands as a transformative advancement by revolutionizing emissions reduction through regenerative braking but also amplifying driving dynamics for users on public roads. This is environmentally friendlier as it can reduce gr...

(2011, May 26). https://www.greencarcongress.com/2011/05/vcc-20110526.html The integration of KERS which was originally used in F1 cars to mass-produced cars stands as a transformative advancement, not only revolutionizing fuel efficiency and emissions reduction through regenerative braking but also amplifying driving dynamics, responsiveness, and the longevity of braking systems. According to Racecar Engineering (2009), The Kinetic Energy Recovery System (KERS) enhances mass-produced cars by capturing and converting kinetic energy during braking into electrical energy stored in a battery. Upon acceleration, the stored energy provides an extra power boost, improving overall vehicle efficiency (Baisden & Emadi, 2004). Integrated into hybrid and electric vehicles, KERS plays a crucial role in achieving fuel efficiency and reducing emissions....
