hello and welcome to technology updates the world cups over but if you think you've seen the end of countries going head to head in the heat think again because we can check out the national teams looking for racing glory in boss alone. but first glance the catalonian capital seems more touristy than tacky but it looks can be deceiving already home to the world's largest mobile tech conference in two thousand and thirteen barcelona became the birthplace of the smarts moto challenge where it seems of engineering students from around europe came to the city to pitch the electric bikes against each other over four grueling days and last year participants were left eating the dust from bush's make one. name

just to make a ons famous make one fighter the bike was designed and built by the moscow state university of mechanical engineering also known as mommy and the universities are very to use the theory from the classroom to cut their teeth out on the track. back in two thousand and ten take up sneak levy followed another team of students pieces from the uni competing in the formula students competition in germany held in the country's historic hockenheim bring seventy five teams from eighteen countries and bowled into town with a single seat for all races to take part in your bent. although there was no champagne shower for the russian team they did reach the checkered flag despite the conditions which is more than can be said for many of the other teams but motorsports hasn't been unaffected by the shift towards electric power off the truck. there's demand for electric transport in your.

well parking spaces scarce fuel is expensive and the public is concerned about the environment. as participants in this race we want to support that philosophy. or a similar trend in russia if those are the people become more aware of environmental issues so that everyone realizes that we only have one planet and we have to look after. builtin nine hundred ninety one. has played host to some of the world's most prestigious racing events and it's sixteen turns over four point five clicks provide a formidable challenge for cars and bikes i like. this month the track was a hive of activity is big name teams tweaks and superbikes ready for the twenty of twenty four hour joints race. just a stone's throw away in pits forty seven the students are working just as hard to

bring that up to scratch for tomorrow's inspection. this year seven teams from spain poland ecuador and russia each looking for a place on the podium. hoping to repeat last year's victory and in the face of stiffer competition the mummy students have come back with a completely new set of wheels they've dropped the electric bicycle design in favor of a fully fledged enduro styled motor bike with only the same headlights as last year's winner. has more in common with his complicity in engine cousins next door. money is journey to barcelona started the best part of a year ago. one month to put the team together which is made up of specialists in different fields but all sharing the same thirst for victory then followed four arduous months of meticulously planning and modeling each note and well. once the team had settled on the final text it was time to stop pencil pushing and gets

their house. in the workshop. software helps the students measure twice and. having fully modeled in stress tests of their frame and forks virtually knew exactly what's a build and how it's a handle on the day. with only a limited budget the guys had to be crafty about which parts to buy in and which ones to make in-house. they opted for steel chips for the frames offering the optimal tradeoff between strength weights and cost. but like anything the finished product is only as good as its components parts. we started exploring new opportunities all agree that it's time we should start using composite materials to produce structural elements structural elements but also for example a lighter battery box made of composite materials and so on. take a bike should be made from high tech materials and carbon fiber offers the perfect way to shore up the structure with precious pounds. glistening black

strands on an empty. seat the trick is to achieve the right balance between fibers and to make sure the saddle sits just right it seems clear the use of compazine means that their electric motorcycle weighs just the same as last year's eve by. up to nine months of blood sweat and tears all that remain for the mummy team to do was to put the finishing touches on their entry this year the rules of the smart challenge stated teams have to use motorbike wheels and the t. should be big enough for two people in addition to the standard motor control given so each team does what is making it even more difficult to keep weight down the team has been working twice as hard this year and plans to turn up with best leave with only a couple of weeks to go before race day guessing that. was no small task. time to

find out if the entries perform as well in the truck as they do on paper. back in the russian comes tensions building as the first round of scrutineer in approaches the team is told through the night in a race against time to get their bikes ready. all the teams have been briefed and now in his hardest were preparing their bikes for thought couple of days ahead this year that guys like me have two entries a more casual meet through neutron and the feisty two proton both bikes have their strengths and even these guys don't know which will perform better in the competition the proton and neutron have the same brake system wheels motor battery and onboard controller but that's about where the similarities end weighing in it's forty three kilos and with a wheel base of one meter thirty three centimeters the only slightly heavier and longer than his teammate it's rigid frame and swing arm built for speed and require a skilled rider while the neutron slightly springy frame makes it more of an easy rider the protons titanium front forks are lighter and can be tuned much more

finely than the neutrons it's hard to smooth the ride seamlessly shift from one position to another whereas the neutron sacrifice is freedom of movement for comfort. it's may seem like the calm before the storm but before these teams allow this truck their bikes know must be scrutinized for compliance with the competition rules and that's just the first hurdle but also the modern acceleration enjoyments handling and even their business plan all of which will go towards their final score. after the ebonics with tested for water tightness it was time to progress on to the next stage which took place on the dynamic testing grounds in the center of the circuit to cancel your truck is it seems have to prove that their rides a safe in the three under five meets the front and back brake tests the mic to produce on breeze test but the neutral was hit by a spot of engine trouble having made it to the test area under its own steam at the crucial moments the electric motor refused to spark

a. the life. you have been i thought the failures mean you could miss a whole day of the competition not as a result you could miss out on a few tests and lose points but it's never straightforward you can never be sure what will happen. today some of the teams are going to try and turn around yes they fail through success in a last ditch attempt to get through the next round. to last night's drama and hours of head scratching the team money to locate and fix the faulty connection that vending machine. with both bikes raring to go it's time for the acceleration test speed is king as it seems takes in turns to open up the struts on the fifty meter straight drag each entry has four attempts at the best time both with and without a passenger and just like last year everyone else done to me wanting the lowdown on the come from all over europe and so on there and make some noise but it might have broken the bike and mom dad and were to have an old offering all of that will have

. the overall is a cult classic it's retro design and distinctive sized car has stood the test of time looking just as good today as they did when they first hit the roads over seventy years ago the motor bike success just goes to show that old school will never go out of fashion and the bike is firmly cemented this nation of markets such as the motor bikes appeal that the company ships well over ninety percent of its bikes have brought but don't just take my word for it. brad pitts was not immune to the motorbikes charm and treated himself to an overall tourist three years ago you immigrate and tumblr founder david karp can also be listed among the aliases with an overall in that carriage. back on home turf or should i say tomah the overall is the chart of choice of the night schools pack leader alexander result also known as the. gang even worked. the manufacturer of the ural back in

the nine hundred ninety s. to create the old elbow. must be valid we have trained up a whole generation of brilliant amateur engineers who have worked on this machine they've introduced all sorts of innovations to it from minor improvements to groundbreaking changes each of them would first try out their innovations themselves and then share them with their friends. pretty much all the roles on the road today were produced in a town of in the urals by the one nine hundred seventy s. the factory which was built around an old brewery had brought us more than seven hundred thousand of the three wheelers whose affordability made them a popular alternative to the car and strong demand for the overall outside of russia mentioned the fight to hit its peak production of one hundred thirty thousand bikes per year around this time as well with the trikes been shipped out to north and central africa europe and even as far as australia but to find out

more about the origins of the overall we have to go even further back in time. the history of the or i'll become right here in moscow more than seventy years ago on the same year that germany invaded feel duty and shuttering the unsee aggression pact between the two countries the soviet union was forced to bump up production and upgraded planes in terms of motorbikes scalp defense and for relaying messages before the start of the war the first prototype for all n. seventy two had already been made although it was heavier than his. predecessors it was also faster more powerful and more reliable and if you look closely all followed suit present any resemblance to the german b.m.w. hossam c one best part of the lend-lease program during world war two the us supplied the soviet union with over twenty six thousand hollies and seven thousand five hundred indians but russia needed its own of great didn't. by nine hundred

forty five the soviet union had produced almost ten thousand and seventy two which were used in the war effort before kicking down again into the civilian population . seventy two was an exact copy of the b.m.w. seventy one but the history of how this happened isn't clear one version of events suggests that germany gave russia a license to produce the oss seventy one as part of a resource and technology exchange treaty the alternative is it gets more cloak and dagger in this one five bemis was secretly acquired by go between sweden and smuggled back into the country where they reverse engineered by soviet specialists it's unlikely that evidence supporting either version still exists so you'll have to make up your own mind as to which one you prefer. today and having avoided any copyrights lawsuits the fighting in it beats is still standing it's currently produces around twelve hundred units per year for diehard fans of the legendary

bike around the world this year's lineup boasts six models including the m seventy chippie to the original the kickstart of the brand but no matter which one you choose they all have one thing in common. a motor bike is unique you didn't think it is currently the only bike in the world to come complete with a side car. side car this is the polar side car is no power driven which enables the motor bike to run on the open road as well as cross-country even overrode the. interest inside cost effectively turns the soviet steed into a full two wheel drive vehicle and behind its retro facade the steel side car can be fitted with modern comforts including a living truck spare tire and plug sockets or even an ammo kind of stuff for the more adventurous types. the company also ships in components from specially supplies in countries such as germany japan austria and. it appears factory

produces six bikes a day and has plans to boost production to meet demand from the new markets in new zealand china and the philippines the company's director and chief engineer both have or else and insist on testing out the latest innovations on their own bikes research different areas when developing or powered side cars should be used a differential drive like the kind we use in cars but inexperienced drivers face difficulties when steering the motorbike due to a differential drive specific design feature that's why we need the differential drive switchable so you can turn it on if you approach an obstacle and then turn it off once you've passed it will continue to explore this area in order to attract new customers by motorbike with the drilling side car wheel is a rare thing. the roles versatility and carried to mean it seen action everywhere from the front line to the streets of hollywood the bikes be chased has been over seventy years in the making and with a fact sheet in it it beats constantly updating and improving its range the history

of the oral is far from over. that's the end of the first we'll see from all three realtek after the break. move. her. to fund.

the. government system is to help poor people poor women but they can only change their life and nobody is trying to make money out of them those who want to make money out of them by. the time the whole thing and to launch a can do their chauffeur and beautiful still show from. city right from the sea. first trip. and i predict future. on our reporters twitter. and instagram.

could be in the movement on mom. well kind of as you can see the simple buy insurance race is now well on the way so let's find out how the students are getting on with the bikes in the security council. race to around twenty six thousand spectators who sets up count for the long haul ahead. on the truck money machine would being pushed to their limits in the opening hours of the race. anything's possible in such a longer bend on the withdrawal of the leading to insurance team in the early hours of the morning left the way wide open for the french team halmos was to take the

trophy covering an impressive seven hundred twenty nine blocks. behind the pits life music a slower pace with teams in their crews enjoying some well deserved downtime. think always in the superbike insurance race but i'm afraid that i can't enjoy listening to the track it's any longer locally there's a greener on silent alternative taking place right now. in the smart's moto insurance race the teams must complete twenty laps of the course covering ten point five kilometers. they should do ten laps solo and ten with a passenger and swap drivers halfway through the goal here is consistency not speed so the time difference between the two drivers has to be as small as possible probably to stop teams from getting one of the professionals next door to three fold them. as you can see bikes and scooters are in demanded moscow isn't any

petrol powered machine the environment is always a concern however that creates a nation the market for three new comers. on billboard's top was bush and pits champion in two thousand and thirteen and has played an active part in promoting the sports in russia having reached the top of his game he's now look. new ways to get his kicks pavel's found a new toy to play with but don't be fooled by. this mighty electric mini can hold its own against much larger petrol bikes as possible found out when he took it to the races. it's much easier to steer this motorbike because it's very light much lighter than bikes that run on petrol it's a big advantage we tried it out in the second stage of the russian pit by championship i pulled away from my posts right from the start and then completed the first lap faster than anyone else i deliberately left the track after that because it was just a demonstration that i wanted to show people how powerful a small motor bike can be accelerate six dreamy fast and i don't think

a petrol engine will ever be able to do anything like that it also only has one gear well with petrol motorbikes you need to change gear in every split second it takes you to change gear is important in a race so this gives you maximum possible acceleration it's amazing really one of a kind of the. bike is made in moscow by dell or the secrets behind its killer characteristics is all in the motor which despite just four point eight kilograms generates nine kilowatts of power which is then fed directly to the wheel the company also builds the frame the battery packs controller and software to go with it. the engines that are currently on the market surprised me because they were also heavy webbing but not that powerful. prototypes. from the start we've made up our mind to use air cooling down which requires much fewer parts so the engine. air currents else that transfers heat from the whole components to.

naturally by the wind. moreover the efficiency of our engine is about ninety percent. rates much less heat anyway. however the electric bike has. generated a lot of buzz so much so that della has already designed three models including two full sized motocross bikes and an urban version this is the prototype stage. the first batch of one hundred days to this winter and has already been snapped up with a full sized urban model having a predicted range of two hundred kilometers on a single charge which costs between thirty five and seventy cents it's easy to see why. it's no good having all these top specs if the bike doesn't look the part so della

got in touch with moscow based in just to design company hope for helping. the designers drop countless concepts from bike before they eventually agreed on the final version. it doesn't weigh a gram more than it has to be simply removed all the new unload the parts and. there's also our original design which allows us to have high engine capacity and with small size and most importantly lightweight. even in this day and age computer models sometimes on sanofi to evaluate the design. so also pieces industrial plus to seem to bring the drawings to life and gets the impression of the final product. after hours of sticking and pressing in most cross bike is beginning to take shape. has been riding bikes since he was a child and uses extensive experience to make sure the bike is practical as well as

pretty the first rendering was a bit too wide a bulky but after a few points has the right balance had been reached. there are all that the bikes on the block including this serial f.x. from california and also just k.t. m. free ride. the top spec f. a one hundred thirty three kilometer range weighs one hundred twenty kilos and costs twelve thousand dollars to take a c.m. only of the hundreds a much smaller budget capacity giving it's a runtime of between twenty to ninety minutes and costs thirteen thousand five hundred dollars when the dell is finished it's expected to be faster light and less than half the price. the inevitable rise in oil prices is only going to spot on bounces in energy storage technology making it both more efficient under fordable and most the but cheap bottleneck has been broken e-books are going to go faster and further than ever before. it's the final day of the

smarts moto competition right here in the hearts of boss alone or there's not much between the teams they still everything to go for in this final handling test. in this closing event of the smarts moto challenge it seems have to show off the maneuverability of the machines by weaving in and out of the cones just like in the insurance test consistency is key and it seems a penalize for every kohen a hit or miss. meanwhile the church took the opportunity to have a closer look at the innovative solutions used in the team's bikes during the design appraisal. the mummy team seem to be doing pretty well in the dynamic tests was fastest when pits and directly against all that he bikes. always go for working. night by night and day by day maybe they. did something along the day they had to

bury a body of. smarts moto challenge two thousand and fourteen is now over and doesn't meet the final totals all the students can do is sit and wait. this year's winners with poland in. ecuador with the people's friendship university of russia picking up a special prize for bravery mommy didn't receive anything so we caught up with emilio unpublished to find out what happened. there but then she oh you're just putting it in more school i was on. its design but well. he made me and see how do you like. duke are sinking into. a model white or examine. the rules just say you have to create a small motor and i think they don't specify whether it should be a scooter or

a full size motorbike they only say it has to be a smart one and i would thought of. a premium. technology because i'm sure the big rosie. if what. we're here at the moment but there are also technical tests of which we won every one and yet we still fail to qualify that's what is a complete mystery to us. well it wasn't meant to be this year but life goes on the money students may not have won in barcelona but they hop on a deal with their sponsored universal motors they could see their bikes ride into mass production series. three mushroom like large cars and large motor bikes that's why we've used the motorcycle riding position and design is the basis for our a bike concept. these bikes will go into mass production three and poor through fourth a couple of the bike parts will be produced according to our designs but we did

receive them but i mean affection facility is going to similar the bikes to me the specific asians or end customers or. so who knows perhaps the streets of moscow will be buzzing with the sound of the protons and neutrons electric motors some time soon. on like this month's show the story of the bike is far from over and it looks like it's on the bright electric future so we'll see you next month until then enjoy the ride. we chase profit very large very attractive and now very globally recognized source of oil for the world and into the future the world's odd cheapest and best

petroleum deposits have been mined out we have to use more energy to get this energy industries grow like a cancer each of these squares it's ten kilometers where. and it's whole area is slated for the plane that's surging from water that's our wildlife so everything that's our fisheries we chop stop this is the end game when it takes two tonnes of sand to make one barrel of oil you know here at the bottom line and that's where. we chill ourselves. you know where you.
