Today, with the actual crisis, all Governments are reducing medical expenses for health assistance treatments. The French Health Department asserts that more than 300,000 people suffer from Polyarthritis, for which only sedatives are prescribed and more than 4.5Mill are Asthma sufferers. For such reasons we have developed a new and innovative device.
Heat illness is a disease which occurs when the body is excessive in absorbing heat. In 13 cases, a worker died from heat exposure, and in seven cases, two or more employees experienced symptoms of heat illness. Most of the affected employees worked outdoors, and all performed heavy or moderate work,
The idea to set up a work station tanks of seawater length of 15 meters and width of 50 meters and a height of 30 centimeters.
Existing alternator design is the most cheap and efficient way of generating voltage to recharge an automotive battery. It is also relatively simple with few moving parts and fairly reliable. The limitation is that it utilizes engine-cranking power to generate voltage reducing engine horsepower and reducing fuel economy.
The Shutter Valve is a quarter turn, compact and fully piggable high performance valve that is based on a simple interlocking three petal design. This design gives it the ability to seal at very high pressures just like any other high performance valve. Unlike other high performance valves,
There are many devices on the market for measuring and controlling heart rate, blood pressure, burning calories, etc. All have facilities of the highest technology as Android and Apple, GPS, WiFi, dual connectivity (bluethoot or cable), memory to store personal data, waterproof, visual and audible alarms and more.
So far,
The Electromagnetic Reciprocating Engine will replace the Combustion Engine in electricity production and transportation.
The Electromagnetic Reciprocating Engine (United States Patent 7,557,473) will reduce the effects of Climate Change. The engine will end over 60% of greenhouse gases which will affect the climate of the World. The engine will end over 75% of the World's dependency on Oil.
Conventional internal combustion engines have their displacement fixed. My project is to make an engine which can have a variable displacement due to which power can be optimized as required. After some studies I have concluded that a 4 cylinder engine can vary its capacity from 1.7 L to 2.1 L.
The current, existing Internet is fundamentally unsecure, what is result of design of this Internet.
Only way to create a secure Internet is to develop a new, secure Internet - it is Internet-like, but with a design different from the current Internet, telecommunication systems. The new design or designs should provide for full or may be nearly full security.
Encircling tumors with an army of miniature nanolasers offer a new way to battle cancer. One nanolaser would be at least 100 times smaller than a single cancer cell and millions of them will penetrate a tumor to destroy it by thermal ablation in this new method of treatment. Technically, the proposed device isn’t really a laser,
