Car Troubles
By: Conley, Jim (ed.); McLaren, Arlene Tigar (ed.)
Published by: Ashgate
Bringing together an international and multi-disciplinary team of leading tranportation scholars, this book's central premise is that the car as the dominant mode of travel needs to be problematised. It examines a wide range of issues that are central to automobility by situating it within social, economic, and political contexts, and by combining social theory, specific case studies and policy-oriented analysis. It examines obstacles to change based in status dynamics, the worldwide expansion of auto hegemony, and the 'locking-in' of automobility; and considers the possibility of alternatives that go beyond the car.

Career As An Automobile Service Technician - Master Mechanic, Repair Shop Owner
By: Institute For Career Research Contributing Editors
Published by: Institute For Career Research
Because of rapid advances in technology, the career of auto service technician has changed more rapidly than most careers. For many years, a person who had mechanical ability and a great deal of curiosity could graduate from high school and enter the field. These mechanics, or grease monkeys as they were called, may not have been good at math or reading, but if they were adept at taking machines apart and had an intuitive feel for what made them run, that was enough. Todays auto service technician is a highly trained professional who has expertise in computer technology, physics, electronics and a variety of other fields. There is still the challenge of solving a problem, but now the technician is more likely to be reading computer printouts than listening to the engine.

Catalysis and Automotive Pollution Control IV
By: Kruse, N.; Frennet, A.; Bastin, J.-M.
Published by: Elsevier Science
In spite of the energy crises and the recession, there has been a global, explosive growth in the amount of motor vehicles. In the past 50 years, the amount has increased from 50 to 700 million vehicles. For economical reasons they will probably continue to be used for a considerable number of years, despite the poor yield of internal combustion engines resulting in the inevitable production of some gaseous pollutants. The subsequent increase of gaseous pollutants in our atmosphere caused by exhaust gas from automobiles has enhanced the problem of the elimination of these pollutants produced by internal combustion engines. Catalysis has proven to be the best solution to lower the content of exhaust gas in pollutants. As its predecessors, CAPoC4 proved to be a suitable platform for discussing technological improvements and developments along with future perspectives and challenges. In the light of new results and further legislative regulations, the following topics were intensely discussed:. *low light-off behaviour based on improved catalysts and substrate formulations. *efficient adsorber systems for storage of hydrocarbon emissions. *electrically heated catalyst systems ahead the main catalyst or, alternatively, close coupled catalysts (at the manifold of the engine). • lean DeNOx catalysts allowing for decomposition of NOx in the oxygen-rich exhaust of direct injection gasoline engines and high speed injection diesel engines or, alternatively, NOx trapping/reduction in a hybrid approach. * collection and destruction of dry particulates or soot. There is no doubt that clean vehicle technology is a vital part of improving air quality. Challenges remain and call for technological answers. Catalytic air pollution control is still an area providing a considerable incentive for innovative work.
