BD: Healthcare Worker Safety
Este estudio de caso nace de una problemática social que aquejó a Norteamérica a principios y mediados de la década de 1980: la propagación de enfermedades de transmisión sexual mediante el uso de agujas contaminadas en los centros de salud.
Becton, Dickinson B, reconoció este problema de salud y seguridad como una necesidad social y una oportunidad comercial, y en 1988, introdujo la primera jeringa de seguridad, incorporando un escudo de seguridad deslizante para proteger la aguja después de su uso, reduciendo el riesgo de lesiones e infección.
De esta forma, el estudio de caso pretende analizar las variables del estudio y desarrollo de las nuevas agujas por parte de esta empresa y los retos que tuvo que enfrentar a nivel social y económico

Building an Electric Motorcycle: Design and Construction of a Zero Roadside Emissions Vehicle
This report details the process of building an electric drive system for a motorcycle, and covers some of the background information necessary for a full understanding of the components involved and their functionality. Topics discussed in this paper are: power estimates, compressed air power, battery chemistries, battery management systems, battery chargers, electric motors, motor controllers, direct sprocket drive, frame modifications, part mounting, and wiring. These topics are discussed in the context in which they apply to the project build, which is a conversion of a street motorcycle to fully electric drive. The complete electric drive system which resulted from this project was fully assembled on a sport motorcycle chassis, and has an estimated top speed and average range of 70 mph and 40 miles
