Abstract: A containerized expeditionary system that can be expanded from a compact, container sized unit to significantly increase the interior space, thereby allowing for use as a shelter, laundry, office, restroom, etc., or combinations therein. The system has a body with a pair of end walls, a pair of side walls, a floor, and a roof defining an interior space. A set of doors can be opened to allow a series of panels pivotally coupled to the body to be moved from a stowed configuration into a deployed configuration where the panels extend out of body to form an enclosure defining a second interior space that combines with the first interior space. The panels are positioned in the ends of the container to maximize the internal space so that the container can include all of the necessary equipment to provide the desired functionality at a location.

Abstract: A containerized fitness system for easy transportation and deployment. A shipping container includes a series of brackets mounted to the roof to provide receiving slots for accepting the flange of a series of corresponding support arms. The flange of each arm includes a pair of spring loaded pop pins that can extend through a pair of holes in the bracket when the flange of the arm is inserted into the slot of the bracket, and that can be manually release to allow for quick disconnection of the support art from the bracket. The other end of the arms may be connected to uprights positioned around the container to provide multiple attachment points for fitness equipment.

Abstract: An apparatus controls the evacuation of volcanic magma to prevent explosions. Magma evacuation is through a single evacuation tube that heats the magma flow within the tube to prevent stickiness of the magma in the tube. The heating may use small combustion chambers to heat steam, which in turn heats and stabilizes the magma flow. Stability is aided by central cooling, where needed, using water jets from nozzles located at the wall of the tube.

Abstract: A world threatening explosion has been assessed as overdue for a supervolcano discovered under the US Yellowstone National Park. Recent proposals give a method for the controlled evacuation of the volcanic magma to prevent the explosion. The present proposals are much simpler. The evacuation would be through a single evacuation tube, 10 and 11. Means for heating the hot volcanic magma evacuation flow prevent an unacceptable increase of stickiness in the very long tube. The heating may use small combustion chambers to heat steam, which in turn heats, drives, and stabilises the magma flow by injection from 16. Stability is aided by central cooling, using water jets from nozzles 15 and 17 at the wall.
