From ignition to pulsating-jellyfish then warp-drive ending! Understanding combustion may lead to more efficient engines and spectacular videos. Science Objectives The Flame Extinguishment - 2 (FLEX-2) experiment is the second experiment to fly on the ISS which uses small droplets of fuel to study the special spherical characteristics of burning fuel droplets in space. The FLEX-2 experiment studies how quickly fuel burns, the conditions required for soot to form, and how mixtures of fuels evaporate before burning. Understanding these processes could lead to the production of a safer spacecraft as well as increased fuel efficiency for engines using liquid fuel on Earth. Earth Applications Watching fuel burn in a perfect sphere provides a unique view of fire that would be impossible to recreate on Earth. Better knowledge of fire’s dynamics could lead to improved fuels for vehicles and aircraft, including efficient, environmentally friendly mixtures of chemicals that burn well together and produce less soot. Soot results from the incomplete burning of a hydrocarbon, and it is harmful to human and environmental health. The FLEX-2 experiment provides a unique view on soot formation that would be impossible under the influence of Earth’s gravity. Space Applications The FLEX-2 experiment measures soot buildup, flame heat and the burning rates of various types of fuels and fuel mixtures. Understanding how fuels burn in microgravity could improve the efficiency of fuel mixtures used for interplanetary missions by reducing cost and weight. It could also lead to improved safety measures for manned spacecraft. Conditions for this test: Test conducted with 50/50 fuel mixture of iso-octane and heptane in a standard air environment (21% oxygen and 79% nitrogen at 1 atm). Burn with 3-mm droplet experienced flame oscillations, which appear as a hole in the flame shell that repeatedly opens and closes. These oscillations create asymmetries in the flame, resulting in a force imbalance on the droplet.

A jellyfish sting can be very painful; it can leave a scar and sometimes they can even be fatal. But in the Philippines, at the Ocean Park in Manila, they have a new permanent exhibition of jellyfish, called "Jelly dancing sea fairies". Charlie Ylaya, a marine biologist and supervisor at the aquarium, said: "Our visitors are amazed by our different jelly fish aquarium settings, and the unique effects of the LED lights changing colour in time to the music." … READ MORE : http://www.euronews.com/2014/08/25/jellyfish-fairies euronews knowledge brings you a fresh mix of the world most interesting know-hows, directly from space and sci-tech experts.

Bionic hand allows patient to 'feel' For more Latest Tech News and Product reviews SUBSCRIBE to The ZakTECH Bionic arm restores sense of feeling Advances in bionic hands have restored a sense of touch to two patients for more than a year, report US scientists. The men can now delicately pluck the stalks out of cherries. Sensors on the artificial hand are used to send signals directly to the nerves, the study, published in Science Translational Medicine, said. Meanwhile, a Swedish team has made a separate breakthrough in artificial limbs - anchoring bionic arms directly on to the bone to improve control. One of the beneficiaries of the American work was Igor Spetic, who lost his right hand in an accident four years ago. He was fitted with a bionic replacement, but it was incapable of feeling the world around him. He had to carefully watch what he was doing and judge by eye whether he was squeezing too hard. A team at Case Western Reserve University attached sensors to the bionic hand and in surgery fitted "cuffs" around the remaining nerves, which were capable of delivering electronic stimulation. The team could send different patterns of electronic stimulation to the nerves using a computer. These were interpreted in the brain as different sensations. The team "mapped" these sensations to 19 different locations on the hand, from the palm to the tip of the thumb, and matched the sensors to the different electronic patterns of stimulation. They then moved on to pressure and textures. Mr Spetic can tell, while blindfolded, whether he is handling different materials such as Velcro or sandpaper. He has been using the sensing hand for two-and-a-half years. Another patient has been using the system for one and a half years. Lead researcher Prof Dustin Tyler told the BBC: "They can do really fine delicate tasks now. Can you build a human body?
