Propellant Slosh Force and Mass Measurement by Andrew Hunt, Richard Foster-Turner, Ross Drury

“…Because of the limitations of operating in earth-bound gravity, it has not been possible to check the exact numerical accuracy of the slosh force acting on the vessel. We are therefore in the process of undertaking a further project to (i) build a prototype integrated “Smart Tank for Space”, (ii) undertake slosh tests in zero or microgravity, (iii) develop the system for commercial ground testing, and (iv) qualify ECT for use in space.…”

A Systematic Review on Poisoned Patients as Potential Organ Donors by Kattamreddy Ananth Rupesh, Anirudh Suseel Nalumaru, Mohit Kumar Moses Thathapudi, Omkarnath Sivarchaka, Deekshitha Alla

“…Evidence strongly indicates that outcomes of transplants from poisoned donors and nonpoisoned donors are comparable, with complications not attributable to the toxicity of the substance. While there’s no single answer to all questions posed by transplant surgeons regarding poisoned patients, it is evident that harvesting organs from poisoned/intoxicated donors is no longer experimental but founded on robust scientific evidence and ample experience. …”
