System for Selective and Controlled Sampling of Exhaled Air

A system and method for selective sampling of exhaled air in which the user exhales into the portable sampling device and the breath flow is calculated from the user’s air flow temperature obtained by the sensor. Furthermore, it is possible to correlate the air flow with the variation of temperature of the exhaled air. (more…)

Explosion Energy Dissipation System

The invention allows the flexible use in terms of dimensions, available deformable material and type of material used, maintaining a highly stable behaviour for the dissipater during the process of dissipation, allowing it to adapt its characteristic to any existing structure or any yet in construction so that it absorbs and redistributes the remaining energy of the explosion by the overall structure, protecting the elements that are essential to structural stability.
