Electrokinetic device and procedure for consolidation of porous materials Authors: Jorge Feijoo, Teresa Rivas, Xosé Ramón Nóvoa, Lisbeth M. Ottosen, Ondrej Matyscak.The pores in the porous materials used in construction play an important role in the load-bearing capacity of a material because the higher porosity of a material usually generates a decrease in their mechanical properties. Furthermore, the porosity plays an important role in the durability of the materials, particularly the accessible porosity, because through these pores the alteration agents such as water and soluble salts can enter into a material. For many years there are several commercial consolidants that try to increase the cohesion between the mineral grains presented in the porous structures that are altered, trying to fill the pores presented within the material and in consequence trying to reduce the accesible porosity. However, these

Electrospinning system for large-scale manufacturing of aligned 3D fiber matricesContinuous electrospinning system and process for production of thick 3D matrices of aligned polymeric fibers. The matrices obtained with this technology can have aligned polymeric fibers with several patterns along the matrix’s thickness, which size depends solely on the number of layers of deposited fibers, on the fibers thickness and the compaction degree between layers. In this way, the present technology can be applied in varied areas, for the manufacture of products or structures, at the nanometric scale, that depend on high surface areas, such as biotechnology, pharmaceutics and tissue engineering.

Elimination of blade tip vortices of aircraft propellersTECHNOLOGY/PRODUCT OVERVIEW Blade tip vortex is a powerful phenomenon that develops very quickly. However, ‘widening’ the blade tips increases the possibility of greater power and performance, at the same time, the vortex losses generated at the blade tips increase drastically. The solution currently used to reduce the vortices of the blade tips is reducing the angle of attack close to the blade tip. This is how it tries to avoid significant losses. At the same time, naturally, the drag force or the transmittable power decreases. Eliminating or reducing blade tip losses (eliminating vortices around the blade tip) means significant fuel savings and increased lifespan, efficiency, and performance especially when using wide blade tips. The elimination of blade tip loss reduces vibrations, thus reducing internal friction of the structure’s material, thereby increasing lifespan. This results in significant financial savings, e.g. in the case of a modern blade. Due to centrifugal force, the “winglet” used on wings moving in a linear direction cannot be used in the case of a rotating system.

Embedded System for Developing Real TIme Applications (SEDATIR)SEDATIR lets us monitor a real-time application to get a better throughput because the tasks do not include any additional code (library) and the monitoring is done when the routines of the operating system are executed. SEDATIR shows graphically a temporal evolution of the different tasks when they are running on the external platform (see Additional information paragraph). By means of this graphic the user can see the state (run, wait, ready, idle, inside of a critical section) in which each of the tasks is in a specific instant of time. SEDATIR adds a real-time operating system to the application developed by the user. private researcher posted this:

Emulsified suspensions for cold accumulationA group of researchers from a Portuguese University developed a phase change composite material with high thermal conductivity, dispersed in an aqueous matrix with self-organization, processable in situ and with high potential for use in cold storage systems. The new material allows to accumulate a large amount of energy in the form of latent heat, the thermal conductivity is improved and, mainly, it eliminates the stability problems of the devices incorporating the material due to the small volume variations in the phase shift. The university is looking for companies in the field of cold storage systems, to assess the potential integration of this technology in existing commercial equipment and license the technology.

Endocytosis routing sequence peptide for cell delivery systemsA range of cell delivery systems are crafted for intracellular delivery such as cationic lipids, protein transduction agents or cell-penetrating peptides. Despite of the large number of techniques, transport of macromolecules are rare and only a small portion of these systems are capable of transporting proteins and only very few of them are delivering antibodies. Possible ways for macromolecular translocation is through endocytosis. In some existing applications there are cell-penetrating peptides with a residue number of about 20 amino acids and these molecules are triggering the clathrin-dependent endocytosis. In the recent patent a short WYKYW pentapeptide is applied to deliver relatively large cargo (antibodies, for example) inside the cell via lipid-raft/caveolin-dependent manner through binding to ganglioside GM1.

Energy harvesting and storage feedback cellThe present invention discloses a device that consists of a kinetic energy harvest and electrical energy storage feedback cell. The cell combines a 2-dimensional superconductor whose performance is induced by a ferroelectric-metal with a quantum Hall Effect placed within two conductor/semiconductor materials with different chemical potentials. In this invention, the alignment of the chemical potentials of material/ferroelectric/material happens by spontaneously forming Electrical Double Layer Capacitors (EDLCs). The feedback (which corresponds to external and internal conduction and tunnelling of the electrons in the cell) allows the electrical potential difference to increase during discharge of the cell with a load. The feedback cell harvests kinetic energy and heat. Besides it stores electrostatic and electrochemical energy whose supercurrent can be induced during several years in the feedback, at room temperature.

Enhanced Conversational Search through Caching Historical EmbeddingsThis technology introduces a client-side document embedding cache designed to enhance the responsiveness of conversational search systems. By caching document embeddings relevant to a conversation's initial topic, it enables faster and more relevant responses to successive queries, leveraging dense retrieval models for semantic understanding. This innovation not only achieves a high hit rate but also maintains the integrity of search results. For example, when a user inquires about "weather patterns," and later asks about "rainfall in the forest," the system could quickly provides specific, relevant documents from the cache based on the semantic linkage established by the initial query, thus streamlining the search process within the conversational context.

Enhanced probiotic delivery in functional foodsBackground Probiotics effectively inhibit harmful bacteria by secreting antibacterial bacteriocin, lactic acid, intestinal settlement of harmful bacteria, which enhances our immune system. Probiotics must survive by withstanding the gastric acid secreted in the stomach, bile from the gallbladder, and various digestive enzymes from the small intestines. However, adding probiotic cells directly to foods results in a significant reduction in cell viability from production through to the time of consumption. Therefore, probiotics must be encapsulated with another protective material, where the encapsulation protects probiotic the cells from external environmental factors and promotes bacterial viability during processing, storage and digestion.
