THE PERFECT TRANSPORT SYSTEM



ROADS:
     Dubai has one of the world's perfect transport system.  There are some 6 + 6 lanes roads with  two walking platforms and service road inbetween.  On the pavements plants are grown with tube irrigation system.  The roads are really clean.  One cannot cross that broad roads.  One has to use bridges.  The bridge can be accessed using public elevators.  The entire road space is cement covered.  Hence, even though it is a city of sand (dessert),  One cannot see sand dust anywhere.  The bus shelters are airconditioned.

BUSES:
     One has to purchase 'travelling card' and load it with money (Dhirams).  Charging the card can be done at any bus stop.  In the machine, just insert dhiram-Notes, enter the amount; touch the card (RFID technology).  The money will be loaded.
     The buses arrive and stand properly adjacent to the platform.  (Roads,and bus stops are clearly marked).  One can easily board the buses.  Wheelchairs can easily move into the buses.  There is seperate space for a wheel chair in the bus.
     As soon as the bus arrives,one has to touch the illuminated circle on the dorr, then the door opens.  While boarding, the 'card' should be touched on the machine.  The coming bus stops are displayed and announced.  No conductor.  While alighting, the card should be again touched and the ticket amount is deducted.  In long distance buses, the large boot opens automatically when you get down from the bus.  You can take out your lubbages.  Bus doors are auto-controlled.
     Normally buses are on time and travelling is hassel free-use google map.
     Mostly cars occupy the roads.  A few bikes can be spotted.  Kids scooter, Limosine cars can also be seen.  People stick to their lanes properly.  Crossing pedestrains are given priority.  Hence, it is no wonder that accidents are rare there.

METRO:
     Metro is a vital transport system in Dubai.  The metro flies(runs) at the height of a five storey building.  The metro stations appears to be integrated with the road transport system.  The stations are designed to look pleasing.  The same 'card' could be used for metro also.  The passengers has to ascend to the first floor using fast escalator.  Then they have to swipe the card,enter and go to the next floor  and the platform.
     The platforms are closed hall.  The trains arrive swiftly.  Both the platform door and the train door opens simultaneously and automatically.  Passengers can smoothly walk into the train.  Door closing and next stations are announced and displayed in Arabic and English.  Elders are given seats.  Passengers behave politely.  The journey offers good view of Dubai.

BOATS:
    There  is a creek filled up with ocean's back waters.  Comfortable modern fibreglasss boats are available for public transport.  Still wooden boats are in use.  They just charge one Dhiram for crossing the creek.  Big cruise with dinner is popular in Dubai.
     Tram, monorail(even driverless)- public taxies are part of dubai's transport system.  A metro like  transport is also available within the Airport.
     Dubai Airport is also one of the biggest in the world.  It is a sight to watch.
     Developing countries could learn a thing or two or many from dubai's transport systems.
     In future, Dubai will go for air taxies, tube rain.  Wait for wonders.

THE EARTH, A SUPER ORGANISM

     JOIN MY COURSE: "Become a programmer in a day with python"       A man called 'love lock' (what a name) proposed a theory called Gaia theory, named after Greek Goddess.      It says, "Earth is a self-regulating organism like a human being.  The organic life in it interacts with in-organic matter and maintains atmosphere, temperature and environment".  Hence the earth is still suitable for the life to thrive.      Imagine, in a particular place, there are lot of flowers.  Some flowers are white and some are darkly coloured.  We know, white reflects light and heat while dark absorbs the same.  White flowers can thrive in hot climate.  But dark flowers requires cold climate.  The absorption and reflection balances and the environment reaches average, warm temperature at which both the flowers can co-exist.  This is the essence of "Gaia" theory.      On our earth, ...

THE PARABOLA

          A jet of water shooting from a hose pipe will follow a parabolic path.  What is the so special about parabola.    Y= x^2 Draw a graph for the above equation.  It will result in a parabola.  This parabola is also called unit parabola.  Any equation involving square will yield a parabola. Example:  Y = 2x^2 +3x+3 (also called quadratic equation)    X= 2 and -2, both  satisfies the equation 4 = X^2.  Parabolic equations always have two solutions.     Any motion taking place freely under gravity follows parabolic path. Examples:   An object dropped from a moving train,   A bomb dropped from flying plane,  A ball kicked upwards.      If a beam of light rays fall on the parabolic shaped mirror, they will be reflected and brought to focus on a point.  This fact is made use of in Dish Antenna, Telescope mirrors, etc.   ...

DISORDER IS THE "ORDER OF THE DAY"

         Imagine a balloon full of air.  The air molecules are moving randomly inside the balloon.  Let us pierce the balloon with a pin.  The air rushes out.  Why should not the air molecules stay inside the balloon safely and ignore the little hole?  That is not the way the world works.  The molecules always "want to occupy as many states as possible".  Hence the air goes out in the open to occupy more volume.   The things always goes into disorder (entropy) and the disorder increases with time.  The above statement is what we call "second law of thermodynamics".      Consider a cup of coffee on the table. Suppose the heat from entire room flows to your cup of coffee, the coffee will boil and the rest of the room will freeze.  Freezing means bringing things to order and arrangement.  It violates the second law.  Hence it will never happen.  Hence heat must flow from high ...
