Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a powerful nuclear medical imaging technique which allows obtaining functional images of the body in a non-invasive way and diagnosing oncologic, cardiac and neurologic diseases at an early stage.
The invention relates to heat engines and, more specifically, to positive displacement internal combustion engines, and is particularly concerned with very large rotary internal combustion engines fueled by solid particulate fuels like coal dust, destined to drive electric current generators, and intended to replace large steam turbines offering at least 50% overall efficiency typical for large Diesel engines,
A prosthesis is an artificial device that replaces a missing body part, which may be lost through trauma, disease, or congenital conditions. When a leg is amputated or lost, a prosthetic device, or prosthesis, can play an important role in rehabilitation. For many people, an artificial limb can improve mobility and the ability to manage daily activities,
ABSTRACT:
In this project we aim at storing and utilising the energy which is generally wasted in the form of heat, during braking action of vehicle. When brakes are applied, heat is generated, but this energy can be utilised in some form. There are various systems available to to store and utilise this energy.
A normal wheelchair provides mobility to a handicapped person over flat land. But when it comes to staircases they'll always have to depend on others to get over such obstacles. Although there are places where we can find disabled friendly arrangements, it's impossible to provide it everywhere.
The proposed device consists of a standard shock absorber equipped with a pneumatic cylinder working at high air/gas pressure, able to quickly modify the vehicle clearance on all suspension rides, indifferent of load state, so easy transforming the car in a sport car on speed road, decreasing the clearance or in off-road one increasing it.

The invention can be used as a low voltage DC-motor or as a generator for high currents. There is no clear differentiation between stator and rotor.
This innovative, new software system provides aerospace design engineers with a Windows-based, graphical user interface for design, analysis, development and simulation of aero-thermodynamic systems. This software has the benefits and advantages over existing simulation and performance design software tools by enabling the design engineers to rapidly synthesize, architect, re-parameterize,
It is an attempt to solve a genuine problem of the poor women of the underdeveloped countries. Poor women cannot afford the costly napkins. As the poor women cannot afford the existing napkins they generally pass this period by inserting some waste cloth in the undergarment. So comfort is beyond imagination.
Robotics deals with the design, construction, operation, and application of robots, as well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback, and information processing.These technologies deal with automated machines that can take the place of humans in dangerous environments or manufacturing processes, or resemble humans in appearance, behavior, and/or cognition.
