Surgery at lowered body temperatures.
The reduction of total body temperature (24–26° C) has been employed in surgery only in the past few years, although it has been used for other purposes since 1930. The problems associated with bodily responses to the process of cooling are by no means thoroughly understood, nor are the therapeutic possibilities of the principle fully explored. It would seem to be more profitable to solve the first problem before pursuing too strenuously the second.

Monitoring and Optimization of Internal Grinding Process
Summary The grinding process is influenced by many factors such as grinding wheel characteristics, dressing conditions and, course, grinding conditions. Therefore, it is difficult to perform the grinding operation in an optimum state. In this study, in-process monitoring methods using power and acoustics emission sensors are proposed to detect malfunctions in the internal grinding process. In addition, a new internal grinding cycle featuring rapid indeed is proposed to minimize the grinding cycle time.
