Abstract: A living wall system generally having a number of layers including a waterproof membrane layer for preventing water and moisture from seeping to the building structure or wall in which the living wall system is installed. Next, a number of growing medium layers are provided having a wicking fabric layer between them, the growing medium typically of felt. The wicking fabric layer ensures even watering and smooth capillary action. The front growing medium layer has plant pockets for holding plants.

Abstract: A lift nacelle may comprise an airflow generator; a sidewall system coupled to the airflow generator and spanning in a first direction, wherein the sidewall system defines a nacelle interior space, wherein the airflow generator defines one of a forward boundary or an aft boundary of the nacelle interior space; and a lift body disposed in the nacelle interior space and spanning substantially perpendicular to the first direction and substantially perpendicular to an upward lift direction. The airflow generator may be configured to accelerate airflow in an aft direction into the nacelle interior space through the forward boundary of the nacelle interior space. The airflow may contact and/or interact with the lift body creating lift in response.
