Aerospool. Aerospool, spol sro is a Slovak aircraft manufacturer based in Prievidza. The company specializes in the design and manufacture of ultralight and kit aircraft in the form of kits for amateur construction and ready-to-fly aircraft. They also build major components for gliders as well as repairing and re-finishing gliders.

The company was founded at the end of 1990 by members of the Aero-club Prievidza.

The company is organized as a spoločnosť s ručením obmedzeným, a Slovak private limited company.

History
The company's first product was the fuselage for the WT3 glider. The company then branched into making hand-laid-up fibreglass transport trailers for gliders, producing more than 120 of them.

The company took on subcontract work and built more than 100 fuselages for the InterPlane Skyboy ultralight aircraft. They produced components for the WT6, the Radab Windex and the Aeropro Eurofox.

In 1992 they designed their own aircraft the Aerospool Compact.

In 1993 Aerospool commenced offering repairs for Schempp-Hirth gliders and was approved by the German airworthiness authority, the Luftfahrt-Bundesamt. They started producing Schempp-Hirth gliders under contract and by 2017 were building tailplanes, elevators and winglets for the Schempp-Hirth Ventus-2C, as well as carrying out pre-assembly, painting and final assembly.

In 1996 the Impulz first flew in prototype form and was developed into the WT9 Dynamic in 2000. The two-seat WT9 Dynamic achieved commercial success and over 500 had been delivered by 2015. The three-to-four seat version of the WT9 is the  WT10 Advantic, which was first flown on 11 April 2013 and remained under development in 2017. The WT10 is intended to be supplied as a kit for amateur construction once production begins.

The vehicle weighs a total of , with a length of over  and it has the capability to transport objects weighing up to . It is powered by a Rolls-Royce Perkins diesel engine which produces  and controls all 8 wheels using an electro-hydraulic transmission.

Design and testing
Two teams were assigned to develop a vehicle. 

Caterpillar developed a tracked tractor (Mobil-Trac System) while Martin Marietta was the system integrator and also built the Mobility Test Bed missile trailer.

A second team consisting of Boeing Aerospace and Electronics' Loral Defense Systems Division (Goodyear Aerospace) built an eight wheel drive vehicle and trailer. 

The Air Force selected the Boeing-Loral prototype. Several vehicles were delivered to the US Air Force by December 1986. The Air Force tested the vehicle until 1991, after which development of the MGM-134 missile project ceased, leading to the project's cancellation.

NMUSAF Museum acquisition
Following the cancellation of the MGM-134 missile project, the last of the engineering models was acquired by the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force in Ohio in 1992. It is no longer on display and was given to the Defense Reutilization and Marketing Office.

The Hard Mobile Launcher at Wright Patterson Air Force Base was auctioned and sold for scrap in July 2015.  It was broken up in September 2015.

HSwMS Mjölner (32). HSwMS Mjölner was a coastal destroyer of the Royal Swedish Navy, built by Eriksbergs Mekaniska Verkstad and launched on 9 April 1942 as the last of the four ship . After serving during World War II, the ship was updated and reclassified a frigate in 1953. Decommissioned in 1966, Mjölner was sold for scrap in 1969.

Design and development

Mjölner was based on the design the  designed in Italy. Small and designed for coastal operation, the vessel was named after Thor's hammer, Mjölner.

Displacement was  standard and  full load. Overall length was , beam  and draught . A crew of 100 officers and ratings was carried.

Machinery consisted of two Penhoët A oil-fired boilers, which supplied steam to two de Laval geared steam turbines, each driving its own propeller. The turbines were rated at  to give a design speed of .  of fuel was carried to give a range of  at .

The main armament consisted of three  K/50 M42 guns produced by Bofors. These were placed in separate mounts, one on the fore deck, one on the aft deck and one on the aft superstructure. Air defence consisted two  K/60 M36 and two  K/66 M40 individually mounted anti-aircraft autocannons, also provided by Bofors. Three torpedo tubes for  torpedoes were triple mounted aft of the superstructure and two depth charge throwers were mounted further towards the stern. 42 mines could also be carried for minelaying.

Construction and service
Mjölner was laid down by Eriksbergs Mekaniska Verkstad in Gothenburg in September 1941. The vessel was launched on 9 April 1942 and commissioned on 12 November 1943, serving with the Coastal Fleet through World War II. The ship was allocated the pennant number 32.

In 1946, Mjölner accompanied  and  on a tour of Bergen and Fannefjord in Norway, Dublin in Ireland and Antwerp in Belgium.

Modernisation
Mjölner was modernised in 1953 and re-rated as a frigate. One of the  main guns was removed, along with the triple  torpedo tubes. A single Squid depth charge launcher was fitted to improve anti-submarine capabilities and the  guns were upgraded.

After the conversion, Mode retained minelaying capability. The upgraded ship was allocated the pennant number 73.

Magnetic drug delivery. Magnetic nanoparticle-based drug delivery is a means in which magnetic particles such as iron oxide nanoparticles are a component of a delivery vehicle for magnetic drug delivery, due to the simplicity with which the particles can be drawn to (external) magnetopuissant targets. Magnetic nanoparticles can impart imaging and controlled release capabilities to drug delivery materials such as micelles, liposomes, and polymers.

Synopsis 

Molecular magnets (single-molecule magnets) are a platform that incorporates insoluble (toxic) drugs into biocompatible carrier materials, without adding magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles which might adversely affect patients susceptible to iron overdose. The drawbacks in conventional magnetic drug delivery methods can be overcome by switching from typical iron oxide nanoparticles to ones based on molecular magnets, such as Fe(salen)-based "anticancer nanomagnet" with proven cancer-fighting ability. However, insoluble drugs including Fe(salen) also have some inherent drawbacks, such as poor water solubility, loss of magnetic activity in solvents, and potential cytotoxicity when accumulated in tissues and organs.

As an alternative synthetic method of magnetic drug delivery, a "non-iron oxide"-based smart delivery platform has been very recently developed by self-assembly of the Fe(salen) drugs into nano-cargoes encapsulated by a smart polymer, exhibiting bio-safe multifunctional magnetic capabilities, including MRI, magnetic field- and pH-responsive heat-releasing hyperthermia effects, and controlled release.
