Cycli-Fuge: Cycling Towards 1g

Invention pertains to centrifugal artificial gravity means for the benefit of human space travelers: It comprises structures and mechanisms for safely generating angular momentum against the decks of a space habitat. It is epicyclically revolved rather than rotated (Holmin CTF 2022). It does not require the legacy concept closed ring wheel space station configuration.

BioMorph Wings: Adaptive Feathered Wing System for UAVs

Overview:

Inspired by the adaptive and highly efficient flight of birds, BioMorph Wings is a revolutionary UAV wing design that mimics avian feather articulation to optimise aerodynamic performance across varying flight regimes. The system features modular, morphing wing surfaces composed of interlocking, bio-inspired, feather-like elements made of shape-memory alloys (SMAs) and ultra-light composite materials.

Aircraft Sealant Scrapper

In the traditional aviation industry, sealant removal is one of most terrible types of work for front line mechanics. Until now no mechanic would like to pick up this kind of task if they have the right to choose especially inside fuel tanks and or very limited space. As I had over 40+ years in aviation maintenance,

Flexible Multilayered Ceramics

Traditional ceramics, while offering exceptional hardness and durability, are inherently brittle, limiting their use in applications requiring both flexibility and impact resistance. This study investigates the mechanical performance of soft, multilayered ceramics, focusing on how hexagonal tile size, adhesive interlayer thickness, and layer configuration influence flexural compliance, penetration resistance, and energy absorption.

Space Gas Station

The benefits of liquid oxygen (LOX) propellant depots in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) are becoming increasingly apparent, as evidenced by investments from NASA and aerospace contractors in fuel storage and transfer technologies. But LOX fuel is still launched from Earth at a cost of 22kg of launch propellant for every kilogram put in orbit.

Platinum

Platinum from Asteroids. Many sought it. Technology fell short. Here's the answer, just released (Advances In Space Research, Elsevier):

$1,370,000,000 in Pt from Main Belt asteroids per each 12-month mission, now possible.

Three innovations make this possible:

Fe and Ni are boiled off M-class ore, leaving platinum group metals behind.
