Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) systems are spreading worldwide and, for limited applications, also in the transport sector where high power rates are required. In this context, this paper investigates the performance of a six-cell SOFC stack by means of experimental tests at different power levels. The experimental campaign is based on two different stages: the heating phase, useful for leading the system temperature to approximately 750 °C, and the test stage, in which the experimental activities are properly carried out with varying input parameters, such as the DC current load. In addition, a detailed post-processing activity is conducted to investigate the main performance that could be used in the scale-up processes to design and size a SOFC-based system for transportation. The experimental results concern the electrical power, which reaches 165 W, roughly 27 W for each cell and with 52% electrical efficiency, as well as the theoretical thermal power and efficiency, useful for cogeneration processes, with maximum values of 80 W and 25%, respectively, achieved at maximum load. This discussion then shifts to an in-depth analysis of the possible applications of SOFCs in sustainable mobility, particularly in the maritime and aviation industries. The complexities of the issues presented underscore the field’s multidisciplinary nature, ranging from materials science to system integration, and environmental science to regulatory standards. The findings presented could be useful to scientists, engineers, policymakers, and industry stakeholders working on the development and commercialization of SOFC systems in the sustainable transportation sectors.

“…Reactive arthritis (ReA) is a rheumatologic condition classified as a sub-group of the spondyloarthritis (SpA) family and is relatively rare [ 7 - 9 ]. ReA is an oligoarthritis that is more common in males in the second and third decades of life and typically follows a distant extra-articular bacterial infection, usually enteric or urogenital, and is characterized by an acute sterile nonpurulent arthritis [ 7 - 10 ].…”

“…The arthritis is typically asymmetrical and predominantly affects the lower limb joints [ 12 ]. Contrary to septic arthritis, in ReA synovial fluid cultures are negative, suggesting that ReA is caused by an over-stimulated autoimmune response [ 9 , 12 ]. Tendinitis is a common finding of the disease and ReA can also present extra-articular manifestations, such as skin and mucocutaneous changes (e.g., hyperkeratotic skin; nail dystrophy), eye involvement (e.g., Conjunctivitis; uveitis) and in rare cases cardiac implications (e.g., conduction abnormalities; aortic regurgitation) [ 9 , 10 , 12 ].…”

“…The diagnosis is mainly clinical but complete laboratory tests, including detection of potential triggering pathogens, are usually performed to support the diagnosis and exclude other differential hypotheses, such as Gonococcal arthritis; Gout; Septic arthritis; other SpA diseases, and Rheumatoid arthritis [ 9 , 11 - 13 ]. There are still no diagnostic criteria for ReA.…”

In professional football, most of the injuries are traumatic; however, these athletes may suffer from rheumatologic diseases, that may present as sports-related injuries. Reactive arthritis (ReA) is classified as a sub-group of the spondyloarthritis family and is relatively rare. In this article, we highlight the successful return to play (RTP) process after the ReA diagnosis in an elite football player in the Portuguese first league. The athlete was able to RTP four months and one week after the diagnosis, had no ReA recurrence nor re-injury >8 months after RTP, and is playing at an elite level.

Now a days, television has become an integral part of daily life. Substantially Children are obsessed with cartoons, rhymes, and 3D pictures. Therefore, the use of long periods of TV viewing has a negative impact on their health, including optic nerve damage. Jitters that impair their vision and heighten their stress level without their knowledge causes headaches, etc. This proposed system will produce a smart app that covers and controls both biases and allows you to shoot parents and guardians can disable SMS announcements if they find them inconvenient. The bias automatically from anywhere at any time. The main ideal of this design is to give an IoT-enabled security system control over and long-time usage of TV. If the children use the TV for a long time automatically TV will be shut down by the parents with the help of blynk app. This design avoids the causes of health problems such as increased stress, neck pain and vision loss as well as the effects of optic jitters on the brain. This system aims to develop a prototype that's independent and capable of controlling television automatically via an Android smartphone using the Arduino UNO Microcontroller. If the children are sitting in front of the television within the distance limit from 20cm to 100 cm, the wi-fi module tracks the distance from the ultrasonic sensor. The tracked signal from ultrasonic sensor is send to the Arduino microcontroller and microcontroller will turn off the screen of the television.
