An important and unresolved issue in rotating thermal turbulence is when the flow starts to feel the centrifugal effect. This onset problem is studied here by a novel experiment in which the centrifugal force can be varied over a wide range at fixed Rossby numbers by offsetting the apparatus from the rotation axis. Our experiment clearly shows that the centrifugal force starts to separate the hot and cold fluids at the onset Froude number 0.04. Additionally, this flow bifurcation leads to an unexpected heat transport enhancement and the existence of an optimal state. Based on the dynamical balance and characteristics of local flow structures, both the onset and optimal states are quantitatively explained.

Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) is a prevalent musculoskeletal condition characterised by lateral hip pain and reduced function. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections have gained attention as a potential treatment due to their regenerative properties. However, variability in PRP preparation methods and insufficient standardisation in the literature complicate the evaluation of its efficacy and reproducibility.

Injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) is a novel platelet concentrate that has been employed in dentistry with the objective of promoting tissue regeneration and healing. In contrast to platelet-rich plasma (PRP), i-PRF is more straightforward to handle, more cost-effective, and free from anticoagulants, which reduces biochemical alterations. The i-PRF procedure was developed in 2014 by adjusting the centrifugation forces.

Cavitation plays a crucial role in the reliability of components in refrigeration systems. The properties of refrigerants change significantly with temperature, thereby amplifying the impact of thermodynamic effects. This study, based on the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) method and the Schnerr-Sauer (S-S) cavitation model, investigates the transient cavitating flow characteristics of the R134a refrigerant in a Venturi tube (VT).

Introduction: Military and commercial stakeholders are investing to explore the use of hypersonic aircraft and orbital spacecraft to transport cargo, medical supplies, passengers, and casualties. These vehicle platforms require periods of sustained acceleration, but to date, these dynamic forces have not been comprehensively considered in the environment of critical care patient movement because injured patients and advanced aeromedical evacuation (AE) equipment are rarely subjected to these conditions. While military AE equipment does undergo crash hazard acceleration testing, equipment functionality during or after sustained acceleration remains to be evaluated.

Nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC) presents a significant challenge to global healthcare due to its rising incidence, prompting the search for innovative treatments to overcome the limitations of current therapies. Our study aims to explore the potential effects of the liquid blood concentrate platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) on basal cell carcinoma cells (BCCs) and squamous cell carcinoma cells (SCCs) in order to obtain results that may lead to new possible adjunctive therapies for managing localized skin cancers, particularly NMSC. Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) cells and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) cells were indirectly treated with PRF generated via different relative centrifugation forces, namely high and low RCF PRF, for 7 days.
