As I understand ther has been some good experiensis of transfuse blood from people that has survived Ebola. Seems to be one of the present treatments to day. Ther is a lot of information of treatments from WHO link below http://www.who.int/csr/resources/publications/ebola/en/ But I still do not think that ther is a treatment that can neutralise the Ebola virus in a blood collection bag, and still have the immune cells activ, to give it back to the patient. If it was, ther wold be a much simpler way to treat Ebola, than to use the WHO suggested treatment with blood transfusions. No need of storing, no need to match blood group.

Lots of people can liv with te hart from a dead person.

Actually my thoughts was to do the blood draning / treatment / transfussioned multiple times, but I can understand that it is a to slow process to work on a fragile patient. If the immune cels can survive than it cold maybe work as giving blood from a survivor of Ebola, with te advantage thath it would not give the patient any desesis from a foringe blood doner! My initial thougt was actualy to drain a newly dead persons blood, treat te blood and then change the blood on a person. This treatment does need that you find out both the patients blood group. It will only work, if you can kill the virus only, and not the immune particles. If it would work you then you have a new sample of blood to treat and use for anew patient. To me it seems to be rather violent to the patient. I do not think I harm anybody by sharing my dumb thoughts.

I have some thoughts about a treatment for ebola. I know that the treatment it self will be able to be carried out, it is based on well known medical practice. I have been a blood donor for meany years, and also got salt water as transfusion. So the procedure ar well known and is in daily use on all hospitals. So if you can fill up a blod bag from the patient, and outsid of the body treat it with het, light or any of the other treatments that could make the virus unharmful then just give it back as a ordinary blood transfusion. If it is possible to find the ultimate treatment for the blod in the transparent bag, then we will be able to transfer back the blood with it's all immune cells still fit for fighting the virus in the body, and if we are even luckier, the weakened virus would not harm, but still trigger the production of more immune cells. I do not se this's as anny thing but an emergency treatment, when ther is no medicine or vaccine awalible. But as it is such a well known procedure, it cold be carried out of ordinary nurses, the stock of blood bags world wide, aught to be sufficient to treat a whole lot of peopl. With out problems too the rest of the world. It is possible to start treating patients as son it is tested. If it works. I don't think it is a good idea, and probbably it has already been discussed. I have a lot to other thoughts around the subject, but won't take up mor of it now. Sorry for the spelling, I am a dyslectic Swedish retiree.

There can be a situation when a person is forced to suicide by mistake or foolishness. If some people believe that they know the reason why some one is suicidal, but there ideas about the reason is more based on there own way of thinking. Then it can happen that they, instead of helping the suicidal, forces him to the suicide. Think it happens in sects, where the sect members are so indoctrinated to think in their own narrow way, that they believe the suicidals problems depends on that they does not live in there way that they believe is the way he aught to live. If the suicidal is struggling against being bullied by people that are trying to push there thoughts on him. Then the attempts to rescue will only worsen the problem, and in worst case force him to suicide. There can be a situation when a person is forced to suicide by mistake or foolishness.

Withe the glass there could be a lot of glassbreak around after the test, to take care of. Or inconvinient to walk around at the testground.

To run a engine at higher temperature the common way is to rise the pressure in the cooling system, it is used today in the Volvo heavy trucks engines they probably use a temperature of 110 C. If you use oil, you need turbuletors in the heat exchanger as the oil do not have as good internal heat distribution as water have. You need to turbulate the oil so that as mush as possible of the volume is exposed to the walls i the cooler.

To think outside the box, probably a strange idea. Would it bee possible, to have a bigger box outside, and use sand, or expanded clay pellets to fill the space between the boxes, probably the pellets are more expensive, probably better insulator. An other way would be to pile expanded clay pellets blocks outside your box, probably more expensive, and more handwork. The advantage for sand, it would bee cheaper, and certainly a better protection for the blow up. I don’t know how well the sand or the expanded clay pellets are as insulators, the pellets are probably better, but more expensive. The outer box, would probably be reusable, it needs no roof, and if the corners of the box is just as necessarily connected, they will fall out after the blow up. Expanden clay pellets

A happy birthday to my newly found forum. Sad to find out what i have been missing the last 10 years.

Seems you had some of my problems, i have Asperger/ ADHD, always had problem not to focus to much on parts on what I am working with. When i try to explani something I mostly go to deep into just the part I see as most important, and do not remember all the things that are necessary for others to understand. I always go to deep into parts of the problem, loosing a loot of the overall knowledge. I have got a good explanation to my problem in a book i recently reed "The Gift of adult ADD" by Lara Honos-Webb. Even if you don't have ADDHD/ADD it is a interesting book for all kreative people.

Automatic transmissions is usualy seen as power shift transmissions, means there is only a short loss of power when shifting, the gears are mostly planetary gears, operated by a clutch for each gear, and using a torqu converter to overcome the different gear ratios. The drawback is the lossis in the gearbox. The latest in gearbox technology is the dual clutch transmission, a manual gearbox, described in the Wikipedia link it has much lower losses. Probably shifts faster than a traditional automatic transmission. I have ben designing gearboxes for about 15 years, before retiring i was partly involved in the design of the Volvo Truck I-Torque.
