Cooling injuries is as old as ice, but while ice helps pain it decreases blood flow and stiffens muscles. High frequency vibration dilates blood vessels to improve circulation and massages muscles to improve flexibility of injured tissues. In addition, vibration stimulates bone reformation,
Humanity is on the verge of a water crisis.
Only the latest example is the state of California, where a multi-year drought is now threatening billions of dollars of agriculture, as well as residents' lifestyle.
Wheels eliminate friction because the contact point on the wheel and its rolling surface advance together. But boats displace water unless they plane or hydrofoil, which require high power inputs. So how is the wheel's efficiency made relevant for watercraft?
There's a surprisingly simple, two-step solution.
My Aquamatic Systems monitor the soil moisture in up to 4 locations and control the watering of the soil as needed. Sensors placed in the soil feed information to a controller operated by digital logic devices and determine amount of water to release.
Revolutionary Digital Stepper Device
The Cerfite digital stepper device can travel at two or more speeds, precisely variable or steady, stop in place and hold position while power is off. It uses little power allowing it to operate wirelessly. Due to same material interface,

The Critical Problem:
According to 97% of scientists worldwide, being in complete consensus that mankind MUST make some quick changes to how we live, operate and reduce the harmful emissions and byproducts we generate. This includes air & water pollution, CO2 gas and excessive amounts of trash.
Water tunnels have been traditionally used for flow-visualizations in aeronautical applications and more recently in bio-mechanical studies such as swimming of aquatic animals . Their use has been instrumental in understanding important aspects of fluid flows such as instabilities, vortex shedding, boundary layer stability and transition,
A Relief valve is a safety device used in fluid process systems to prevent abnormally high pressure that could cause danger to people, process and equipment.
When an abnormally high pressure develops in the system,
The present invention in general relates to a vertical and short take-off and landing aircraft(V/STOL) comprising a novel adjustable multi-dimensional propeller that is capable of vertical take-off and includes a fuselage without control surfaces, apart from the present day conventional airplane.
