Lower turbines should, together with clever design and material selection, help reduce the turbines' weight, and thus their need for ballast, which in turn should reduce sub-sea costs.
Some are distinguished by design or material, such as the nearly two pounds of solid gold that King Philip II of Spain attached to his profession of fealty to Pope Paul IV in 1555.

Understanding such social behaviour may hint at ways to design other sorts of superconducting material or even, paradoxically, better insulators.
The goal is to move from having to merely tweak the proteins that are used as biotech drugs to being able to design them, even taking material from multiple organisms and using them to create new, functional genes.

The design of the reactors is likely to contain radioactive material somewhat.
My last conversation with Adrian Bejan ended on the notion that if design in nature is a universal principle of the material world, then freedom is the key variable that determines how efficiently designs can evolve over time.

Next is the publication of a "look book" for the final design and models built from foamcore, a strong, lightweight material.
Izhar Gafni, from Israel, spent 18 months just folding the material every-which-way in order to discover a strong enough design, and now he claims his technique is almost ready for mass production.

First, "Benign by Design" is a call to the producer to use green chemistry to change the material to be inert in the environment.
They need to complete workorders, create quotes, authorize material requisitions, check inventory levels, enter in their time and expenses and pull up a recent design.
Similar job-lots of centrifuge equipment for enriching uranium, potentially fissile material for a bomb, delivered by Mr Khan and his associates to Libya had come with the design of a nuclear warhead thrown in.
These printers use something like a toothpaste tube of plastic or other material held vertically in an X-Y plotter that squirts out thin layers of tiny dots of material that build up, layer by layer, to produce a 3D replica of the computer-generated design.
