Hartmann alligator forceps. The Hartmann alligator forceps or Hartmann foreign body forceps, named after the German physician Arthur Hartmann, are medical forceps for removing foreign bodies. It is used in addition to surgery mainly in otorhinolaryngology (ENT). Their quality depends on the origin and quality of the stainless steel. Indian steel is used often for hobbyist use. FDA and CE certified instruments also veterinary instruments are normally made of Japanese or German steel.

Shaft length
The shaft length varies up to one meter, is predominantly 8 to 12 cm. Only the top mouth opens alligator-like. (in US therefore has the medical term "Alligator Mouth" or "Hartmann Alligator Forceps" enforced. A common name also is "Crocodile forceps"). The standard length of the muzzle from the front hinge implementation is 1.5 cm or 1 cm. Thus, the clamp is used where normal tweezers or fine instruments are struggling to grasp small objects. So you can even grasp objects in small tubes and position them precisely.

Clamp
The ear clamp is used wherever problems exist with normal tweezers or fine instruments to grasp small objects. It opens only a small part of the mouth. So you can even grasp objects in small tubes and position them precisely. Ideal during soldering, when it is difficult to accurately position small components. In veterinary medicine the Hartmann, ear polypus forceps is used to remove awns or epilate hairs of dogs ears. The design reduces the natural tremor (shaking).

Mini-Fly Set. The Mini-Fly Set is a German powered hang glider that was designed and produced by Mini-Fly GmbH of Kirchardt. Now out of production, when it was available the aircraft was supplied complete and ready-to-fly.

Design and development
The aircraft features a cable-braced hang glider-style high-wing, weight-shift controls, single-place accommodation, foot-launching and landing and a single engine in pusher configuration.

The aircraft uses a standard hang glider wing, made from bolted-together aluminum tubing, with its double surface wing covered in Dacron sailcloth. The wing is supported by a single tube-type kingpost and uses an "A" frame control bar. The engine is a two-stroke, single cylinder Sachs 166 industrial engine of  driving a 3.4:1 reduction drive. The engine is mounted at the front of, and below the wing on a separate tube running parallel to the wing's keel tube. The  fuel tank is mounted above and behind the engine. The two-bladed, wooden, fixed pitch propeller with a  diameter is located at the rear of the wing's keel tube and is protected from ground contact by a tail wheel mounted on a long aluminum tube. The propeller is driven by a long extension shaft.

The pilot may take off in the prone position or from a standing start as in a conventional hang glider hill launch.

Titanium Sponge Plant. Titanium Sponge Plant is an Indian manufacturing plant that produces titanium sponge, a material widely used in aeronautics, light defence vehicles, and other applications. It is located at Kerala Minerals and Metals Ltd (KMML), Chavara, Kollam district of Kerala. Notably, It is the only plant in the world that carries out the entire aerospace-grade titanium sponge manufacturing process under one roof.

History
The importance of establishing domestic titanium production was realized due to India's significant demand for titanium and magnesium alloys, which were predominantly imported from countries such as China, Russia, and Japan. Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, a scientist and the former President of India, highlighted the issue in a speech at the Kerala Legislative Assembly. The plant was fully commissioned in August 2015.

Establishment
The successful implementation was achieved after about twenty years of continuous research by the Defence Metallurgical Research Laboratory (DMRL under DRDO). The project is funded by Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC under ISRO).

Ranking
India is the seventh country in the world to have such a complex structured TSP which has the technology to make titanium sponge, and the first to have done the entire process under one roof in an indigenous manner. The company, Kerala Minerals and Metals Ltd. (KMML), has also won awards for commercialising this technology.

Design and capacity
The plant has an intricate design to carry out manufacturing of titanium alloy wrought products and fabrication of hardware. Titanium sponge is an alloy product that is produced through the Kroll process, which includes leaching or heated vacuum distillation to make the metal almost 99.7% pure. 

Work is being done actively to increase the capacity of the TSP for the proposed 10000 TPY. A memorandum of understanding has also been signed by the KMML with Steel Authority of India (SAIL) for a joint venture to prepare titanium sponge at large scale. 

India has the third largest reserves of Titanium containing minerals, and was the sixth largest country by Titanium production in 2013. However, the high purity Titanium sponge (defined as containing at least 99.7% Titanium) as raw material is still imported for aerospace applications from countries like Japan, Russia and China. Using the indigenously made titanium sponge, VSSC realized the aerospace-grade alloy, having formula Ti6Al4V, at Mishra Dhatu Nigam (Midhani) in Hyderabad.

Future prospects
Proposals for future work include magnesium recovery from MgCl2 (magnesium chloride) to set up an additional facility on similar lines, as well as to expand titanium production capacity from 500 MT to 1000 MT.

Eduard Lill. Eduard Lill (1830–1900) was an Austrian engineer and army officer.

Life
Lill was born 20 October 1830 in Brüx (Bohemia). From 1848 to 1849 he studied mathematics at the Czech Technical University in Prague and in 1850 he joined the military engineering corps of the
Austrian Empire. From 1852 to 1856 he continued his education at the military engineering academy at Klosterbruck near Znaim. Later he was stationed in Esseg, Kronstadt and Spalato until he retired from his military career in 1868 with the rank of captain (Hauptmann) of the engineering corps. In the same year he became an engineer for the Austrian Northwestern Railway and oversaw the railroad construction at Trautenau (Trutnov). A severe accident however restricted him soon to office work. From 1872-1875 he worked as a secretary for the director of construction of the railway company. Later he became a technical consultant for company's headquarters and in 1885 the head of its statistics department. He retired in 1894 with the title of a chief inspector.

Work
Lill is best remembered for a contribution in mathematics, and his traffic and transportation research. In mathematics he devised a graphical procedure to determine the roots of polynomials, which in essence is a  representation of Horner's scheme. He published his invention in 1867 in the French journal Nouvelles Annales de Mathématiques, and Charles Hermite provided a description of it for the Comptes rendus of the same year. Later it became known as Lill's method.

Lill's transportation research led to what is now called Lill's law of travel (Reisegesetz von Lill). It was one of the first attempts to model the quantity of travellers, in particular railroad passengers, between two locations. While it has been used in civilian engineering, in particular city planning, through much of 20th century, it is now typically replaced by more complex models.

Kakani Katija Young. Kakani Katija is a bioengineer from Hawaii. While earning her Master's and PhD in Aeronautics and Bioengineering, Katija began to study the mechanics of swimming and feeding marine organisms.

Biography

Education 
Kakani Katija completed her bachelor's degree in Aeronautics and Astronautics at the University of Washington in 2004. She furthered her studies, earning a Master's in Aeronautics in 2005 at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and her Doctorate at Caltech in 2010 in Bioengineering. She served as a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute.

Career 
Katija was awarded research fellowships from both the American Society for Engineering Education and the National Science Foundation to conduct graduate research. As a certified research diver, she has conducted field studies in various locations throughout the world, including research completed in 2009 off the coast of the Palau archipelago. The goal of this study was to understand the physics involved in the movement of jellyfish. The science team discovered the jellyfish not only push water into their bells but drag an almost constant flume of water behind them. This discovery led Katija to study how marine life contributes to mixing the ocean. Katija's work also includes understanding how much sea creatures mix fluid in the ocean at rates comparable to winds and tides.  

Katija now leads the Bioinspiration lab at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute in Moss Landing, California, where she has developed DeepPIV, a research tool intended to make conducting experiments in ocean habitats less invasive and improve marine research techniques.  

She has participated in two expeditions on board R/V Falkor - Designing the Future and Designing the Future 2 testing the newly developed technologies on board. Imagery from the use of the DeepPIV used on board Schmidt Ocean Institute's R/V Falkor, is available on SketchFab.

Awards and honors 
In 2011, she was named an Emerging Explorer at the National Geographic Society, and as part of the award, a research dive in Panama was filmed in 2012 by National Geographic Society featuring her work. 

In 2013, she was named a Kavli Research Fellow from the National Academy of Sciences.

In 2023, Katija was awarded the Marine Technology Society's Compass Distinguished Achievement Award, which recognizes individuals who have made significant contributions to the field of marine science and marine technology throughout their careers.

Costa Azul LNG. Costa Azul LNG is a sea port and natural gas processing center, located 15 miles north of Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico. Opened in 2008, the terminal can process up to one billion cubic feet of natural gas per day. This is the first liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal on the North America west coast. LNG carrier ships capable of holding up to 220,000m3 of LNG can dock in the deep water port off the coast to unload LNG. The natural gas from the terminal is used to produce electricity and is fed by pipe lines to factories. The longest pipeline runs north, to the United States. Sempra Energy is a partner in the port with PEMEX. The LNG ship Al Safliya was the first ship to port and unload at Costa Azul. The Al Safliya is a 210,000 cubic meter LNG ship, its LNG was from Qatar. The other Mexican LNG Terminal in the Pacific Ocean is at Manzanillo, Colima, the Manzanillo LNG Terminal.

Details
Contract to build the port was made in 2004. The port as a man made breakwater jetty. The port has two full-containment storage tanks each holding 160,000 cubic meters. The port can receive from ships  per day. The port was built by: Techint SA de CV of Mexico, Black & Veatch of Overland Park, KS, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries of Tokyo, Vinci Construction Grands Projects of France and Freyssinet: LNG Tank post-tensioning. A man made 625 meter breakwater was built to project ships docked off shore. To minimize the ecological impact, some sea life was relocated and a plant nursery was built on site. The port has one berth that can handle up to a Q-Max ship. A Q-Max is the largest classification of LNG carrier; such ships can hold up to  of natural gas.

Usage
As of 2013, Costa Azul LNG terminal was not used at its full capacity of  per day. Shipments of LNG from the Middle East and Indonesia went to Asia as demand and prices were higher there. Also import demand was lower then, as the Kern River Pipeline and Ruby Pipeline were feeding the Western and Southwestern United States.
