Discrete Geometry Engineering Design Proposal

Under “Discrete” I refer to the acceptance in Engineering [ and not only ] of π in the Form of :

4 /{SQRT[ Golden Ratio ]},

which is associated, indissolubly, with Microcosmos and Macrocosmos .

The proposed π keeps its “Irrational” form in powers and roots unchanged.

As it is difficult to anticipate truth of the many π values,

Disk Shaped Hand Grenade

The disk shaped hand grenade will be a new design. The grenade will be made with metal. All components will be the same in this disk like basketball shape grenade but only difference is its disk shape.

It will be more aerodynamic due to its disk shape.

Drone Concept for the Stratosphere

An idea from 1985 now updated. Although direction back to balloons, drones are more flexible. Large wing area with solar cells, bent slightly to catch more light when the sun, off apex. 2 concepts ST-1, and ST-2. Concept can be enlarged for passengers. Concepts also useful for Mars missions, rather than helicopter.

Drone Firefighting

I always had a wish to upgrade and accelerate the figth against a fire. In my country every summer we have many fires that burn large areas specially in windy days. Many times these fires are close to the sea and can be to areas difficult to approach.

Ductile Ceramic

By sintering ceramic powder with metal powder under very high pressure and temperature, elastic and plastic deformable metal rich ceramic can be created. Although the metal the powder was added to the ceramic powder, thus sintered bulk ceramic does not show sign of metal by X-ray diffraction check and elastically and plastically deformable. In addition,

EAS Device Full Absolute Time Same Code Structure

EAS device full absolute time same code structure that uses a true full absolute time protocol. This improvement will better guarantee absolute time from year to year as well as preventing bad BLU or WTE BLA CEA alerts.The solution is simple. Others have proposed similar ideas but my idea does more with elegant simplicity.

Efficient Winged Personal VTOL aircraft -WIP

It is known that vertical flight is very costly from an energy point of view. To avoid the same disadvantage during forward flight it is obviously recommended to use mainly the wings to produce lift instead of the air impulse. This increases the efficiency, respectively the range or can reduce the total weight of the aircraft.

Electric/hybrid VTOL Aircraft with Thrust Augmenter

New propulsion type with thrust augmenter and new VTOL aircraft

The present concept aims to improve the disk loading value with around 15 - 20% and to reduce noise with around 20% over current ducted fan propulsion systems. This increases the hover efficiency and reduces the power requirement.

Enhance Image Resolution with Nearest Neighbor Deconvolution

A new image processing technology, nearest neighbor deconvolution (US Patent 7912307), is able to enhance image spatial resolution beyond the diffraction limit.

This technology rewrites the point spread function (PSF) with nearest neighbor model, applies the Shift Theory in Fourier domain, and achieves higher resolution images with inverse Fourier Transform.
