Ankle brace. An  ankle brace is a garment that is worn around the ankle to protect it or for immobilization while allowing it to heal from sprains and other minor injuries. Ankle braces are used to immobilize the joint while providing heat and compression to the bones. They are common in injury rehabilitation processes that affect the ankle, being made of rigid fabric such nylon and neoprene that allow limited mobility of the foot and conform to the ankle by a hook and loop fastener. To ensure its fixation, the foot portion may include metal pieces. In severe cases, they incorporate metallic plates to better immobilize the joint. Ankle braces may not be adequate in treating more severe sprains and ankle injuries.

Indications
Ankle braces are indicated for ankle trauma with small fractures or without fracture, immobilization of the joint, postoperative synovitis, sprains or inflammations of the joint, weak muscles in the ankle, among others.

In rehabilitation ankle braces are used to immobilize the ankle in a neutral position, which "theoretically minimizes stress at the repair site".  Finally, are used in sports where the ankle is under stress, as in soccer, rugby or basketball.

Ray P. Dinsmore. Ray Putnam Dinsmore (24 April 1893 – 26 October 1979) was a rubber scientist, known for pioneering the use of rayon as a reinforcing material in auto tires.  In 1928, Dinsmore patented the first water-emulsion synthetic rubber in the United States.   The material later became a staple of the rubber industry during the World War II shortage of natural rubber.  Dinsmore worked for the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company and developed Chemigum, an early synthetic rubber.  Dinsmore hired noted rubber physicist Samuel D. Gehman, and he collaborated with Lorin Sebrell.  His authored a popular review on the topic of rubber chemistry for the American Chemical Society's 75th Anniversary. Dinsmore served as chairman of the Rubber Division of the American Chemical Society in 1927.  He received the 1947 Colwyn medal and was named the 1955 Charles Goodyear Medalist.

Dinsmore was educated at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, completing a degree in chemical engineering at the age of 21. He entered the rubber industry in 1914.  He was Vice President of Research and Development (1943-1961) and a Member of the Board of Directors (1960-1964) at the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company.

He died on October 26, 1979.

Baisikeli Ugunduzi. Baisikeli Ugunduzi is a for-profit social business that specializes in bicycle components for the Sub-Saharan African market. Baisikeli Ugunduzi means innovative or modern bicycles in Swahili. It was founded in the winter of 2011 by Ben Mitchell, whom holds a MS in mechanical engineering as is currently seeking his PhD at Michigan Technological University and John Gershenson, a professor of mechanical engineering at MTU. Baisikeli Ugunduzi is headquartered in Kitale, Kenya, Africa. It is considered a for-profit social venture, where it develops human-centered products, which seeks to raise the income of boda boda, who rely on the bicycle as a means of livelihood.

Funding
Baisikeli Ugunduzi was awarded $100,000 in Development Innovation Ventures (DIV) stage 1 funding from USAID.  The enterprise won first place in the Central Michigan University New Venture Competition, worth $30,000, plus an additional $10,000 for Best Social Venture, was awarded "Top 40 Project 2012" in the Dell Social Innovation Challenge, and was a semi-finalist for an Echoing Green Fellowship.  A campaign to raise $40,000 in 40 days on Indiegogo, however, was unsuccessful.
In April 2014, Baisikeli Ugunduzi placed third in the Global Social Venture Challenge where they were awarded $7,500.

Product
Their first product is a bicycle tire inner tube replacement made of an elastic material, called the Milele Tube, which cannot go flat. Milele means forever in Swahili. It is a solid, cylindrical piece of elastic material that replaces the standard inner tube and can be cut to length to fit any size tire. It is being made with three different firmness levels. There is a soft tube for the front tire, which carries less of the total load; a medium tube for light loads on the rear; and a firm tube for heavy loads such as passengers or cargo. One test rider used the firm tube to carry  for . They approximate a pneumatic tube at . The first day of sales was April 6, 2013.

Market
More than 5 million people in Sub-Saharan Africa depend on bicycles to earn a living, such as boda boda operators, and they can spend up to a quarter of their incomes just to fix flat tires. Traditional bicycle tubes cost $3, and the Milele tube cost just over $10, but can last up to five years.

Avio Delta Thruster. The Avio Delta Thruster is a Bulgarian ultralight trike, designed and produced by Avio Design of Vetrino. The aircraft is supplied as a complete ready-to-fly-aircraft.

Design and development
The aircraft was designed to comply with the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles rules, including the category's maximum empty weight of . It is German DULV certified and can be flown with any suitable cable-braced hang glider high-wing. The aircraft features weight-shift controls, a single-seat open cockpit, tricycle landing gear and a single engine in pusher configuration. The hang glider wing can be replaced with a paraglider wing and requires ten minutes to convert.

The aircraft is intended to be quickly folded into a package small enough to fit into a car for ground transport.

The aircraft is made from bolted-together aluminum tubing, with its single or double surface wing covered in Dacron sailcloth. A number of different hang glider and paraglider wings can be fitted to the basic carriage. A typical hang gider wing used would have a  span and would be supported by a single tube-type kingpost and use an "A" frame weight-shift control bar. The carriage front wheel is adjustable to allow for different pilot leg lengths.

The powerplant is a single cylinder, air-cooled, two-stroke,  Simonini Mini 2 engine. Without the wing, the aircraft has an empty weight of  and a gross weight of . The fuel tank holds .

An electric version was under development in 2011.

Carbon pentoxide. Carbon pentaoxide, carbon pentoxide or tetraoxolan-5-one is an unstable molecular oxide of carbon.  The molecule has been produced and studied at cryogenic temperatures. The molecule is important in atmospheric chemistry and in the study of cold ices in the outer solar system and interstellar space. The substance could form and be present on Ganymede or Triton, moons in the outer solar system. 

The molecule has a C2 symmetry.  It consists of a five membered ring with one carbon and four oxygen atoms.  A fifth oxygen atom has a double bond to the carbon. Calculation has resulted in a theoretical structure. The pentagon is not regular, but varies in the length of its sides and angles.  The distance between the oxygen atoms that are not attached to carbon is  1.406 Å, whereas the distance between one of these atoms and an oxygen attached to carbon is 1.457 Å.  The carbon oxygen bond length is 1.376 Å. The double carbon to oxygen bond is the shortest at 1.180 Å. There is no carbon-to-carbon bond as there is only one carbon atom. The OOO bond angle is 100.2° and the OOC angle is 109.1°. The OCO bond angle is 125.4°.

Production
Carbon pentaoxide was produced by irradiating cryogenically frozen carbon dioxide with 5 keV electrons. The reaction mechanism is by carbon tetroxide reacting with an oxygen atom.  This reaction releases 17.0 kJmol−1. Formation from ozone and carbon dioxide is energetically unfavourable by 165.6 kJmol−1, and carbon trioxide reacting with dioxygen molecules also would require 31.6 kJmol−1.

Properties
Vibrational infrared wavenumbers include the most prominent ν1 1912 cm−1 for the most common isotopologue 12C16O5. Potential routes for decomposition are by forming carbon dioxide and ozone, or carbon monoxide and oxygen, or carbon trioxide and oxygen. Carbon pentaoxide is less volatile than carbon dioxide, remaining stable and solid until about 106K.

An alternative theoretical structure, termed C2v, has a spiro structure with one four-member ring and a three-member ring tied perpendicularly at the carbon atom.  However, this is 166 kJmol−1 higher in energy than the C2 isomer, and thus less likely to be formed.  This isomer has not been detected.

The equivalent carbon pentasulfide is also known from inert gas matrix. It has C2 symmetry with the same atomic topology as the pentoxide.
