Composition on man's travel jouney from 'heel to wheel'

Explanation:

  • The wheel is perhaps the greatest invention of man. Simple as it is, this is the very base of movement. Therefore, one would assume that the wheel maker should have gained great reputation and money. Though, no one knows who the inventor was. It was only 5000 years ago (about 3000 B.C.) that this simple device, which has now been the most powerful and most common tool, was invented inventively
  • It must be very hard to travel long journeys before the invention of the wheel. Travelers were holding their belongings on the back and were faced with many hazards. On the road they could take shelter or rest and eat there were no hotels . Hence, very few people travelled. Even the people on a trip didn't know when they would arrive and if they would come home safely. Man started to tame for his first time animals. The dog was the first animal that was tamed. He tracked and alerted his master of the danger approaching. For fishing, the dog was also used. Eventually, a bunch of dogs were found to be able to push a heavy load.
  • All of the time, people were looking for a way to move themselves and their goods with greater speed, comfort and safety over longer distances. In the West, possibly in Mesopotamia, the first wheel should have been made. Excavations in Mohenjodaro indicate that 4000 years ago oxcarts were in use with two large solid wooden wheels. The first wheels consisted of three wooden planks which were almost all formed and held together by wooden struts. Metals have also helped to make larger and better spokes. An outer rim of the wheel was formed by a strip of metal that kept the parts tightly together and provided a fluid surface. Apart from the metal tyre, wear and tear will stand better than wood. This significantly increased the utility and life span of the wheel.
  • As the wheels grew, they became heavier as well. The load they had to shift was additional in weight. There was something to do to lighten the big wheels. It was no longer necessary to have a solid wheel with a metal band to keep the pieces together. A heavy load on such a surface was difficult to pull. It became necessary to build some sort of hard surface for the wheels, which led to roads. Important streets and roads started to be paved with stone or bricks.
  • Roads  improved greatly, and light carriages started to be made and utilsied. Rich people rode in them at a fast pace. Better roads made it possible to speed up and called for improved, quicker and easier turning wheels. This made it a race between the wheel and the lane. Damping and the motor car were created and faster modes of transport were developed by the invention of the steam engine and motor-car. Steam power was used first by roads, but soon it became evident that better rail use could be made. In the days of horse-drawn carriages powered motor vehicles at a pace not dreamt. Roads were greatly improved by coating their surfaces with asphalt, concrete or bitumen to cope with these levels.
  • With this progress Wheels had to keep pace. The motor vehicles ' wheels were fitted with solid rubber tires by the last decade of the nineteenth century. Nevertheless, road transport was a long and awkward journey. Then the development of transport came to a significant point. The aerial pneumatic tyre was invented by John Boyd Dunlop, a British veterinary surgeon, in 1888. This tyre has allowed the wheel as a wonderful invention to prove its true value. The air in the tire was like a coil and shock absorbed. Soft, over-sized pneumatic tyres, known as balloons, have been used for extra comfort. The wheels were made from metal entirely, and delicate spokes were used in the light of day.
  • The work of John Dunlop spread throughout the world. These great pneumatics are used on motorcycles, motor cars and aircraft. They are used in lorries that carry several tons of heavy loads and on airplanes that travel at enormous speeds along the ground as they depart and land. The wheel was one of the largest and definitely the most important development in the transport system of all time. No other technology has helped people to overcome distance so much. The pattern of land transport was set for 50 centuries in this innovation. Places that seemed far away in ancient times now seem only around the corner. It takes only days to journeys that have taken months or even years at a time. From the days before 3000 B.C. animal-drawn buses. In the eighteenth century, it was a slow journey to steam power. The unknown genius that invented the wheel, mankind greatly owes to him!.
