With the advent of war between Russia and Ukraine and the recovery from COVID-19, we can see that there is a noticeable shortage of food for the population. Having food nearby will be cost saving and convenient in terms of supply chain.
Brain hemorrhage is one of the most common and lethal forms of stroke affecting more than 2 million patients annually worldwide. When the blood clot forms and obstructs the circulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF),
The Canadian 20 billion tree project experienced a few setback problems over the last 2 to 3 years and is unable to meet its tree planting targets.
This concept addresses that problem and has the potential to correct the shortfall and simultaneously INCREASE the rate of planting.
The EXtreme Transmission Ratio Efficient MEchanism (EX.T.R.E.ME.) is a simple planetary mechanism with a pair of standard module gears and a pair of gears with involute profile but non-standard module.
In this way, having only ONE moving part between its input and its output (only THREE moving parts,
Update to the Storm Wave Mitigation Project
We had access to a CFD application where we simulated the effect of an Edinburgh Duck facing a wavefront. This is captured in the sidebar with the solid white bar representing the oncoming wave front.
The current invention refers to the field of transport and vehicles in general, and it particularly refers to windows and sun shields or anti-glare related to the windows.
More particularly, it consists of a solar protection device for vehicle windows which mobile screen, placed near the window pane,
Current treatments for ischemic heart failure (HF) involve drugs that reduce cardiac load to facilitate heart function and there are no treatments available that can stop the disease from progressing. As a result, 50% of HF patients die within first 5 years.
Revolutionary Astron Omega 1 Rotary Hydrogen Engine
The novel Omega I engine features a high power-to-weight ratio, high rpm capability, low friction and fuel consumption, simplicity (only two rotating assemblies), and can run on both liquid and gaseous fuels.
As a young amateur engineer, I considered the traditional internal combustion engines too large after comparing its combustion volume and the total volume it demands inside a car.
