Novel Longfiber Cotton Gin

The 700 cotton ginners currently in operation in the United States struggle with international competition and declining profitability. This is in part due to the 2000 installed gin stands that use an old ginning technology that produces inferior fiber quality, short length and excessive waste.

Phase Transition Engine Utilizing Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking

This technology provides solutions to current energy problems and can reduce consumption of natural resources.

As an example of the phase transition, there is a phase transition between superfluid state and normal-fluid state of liquid helium. Figure 1 shows the phase transition engine to get energy using the superfluid phase transition.

Preliophics and the Preliophic Moleculator

Pauling et al. (1949) used electrophoresis to identify structural differences between normal and sickle hemoglobin. Their findings gave rise to molecular genetics and orthomolecular medicine.

The discoveries of HIV, AIDS and their consequences introduced needs for rigorous studies of functional molecular differences. For example, early findings of co-morbidities with Kaposi sarcoma and acid-labile ?

Re-inventing the Spider Web

Arguably, the strongest structures in nature have to be the webs spun by spiders.

These super lightweight structures can support massive loads, they can span vast distances (anyone who has walked into a web spun across a garden path can testify).

Yet this construction method has not been exploited to the fullest. Analogies can be made between man-made structures,
