A pressure-control temperature-control hypergravity experimental device includes a high pressure reactor, a hydraulic oil station, a manifold board, a hypergravity water pressure control module, a hypergravity mining control module, a kettle body temperature control module, and a data collection box. The hydraulic oil station is connected to the manifold board and then two paths are formed. The two paths are respectively connected to the high pressure reactor via the hypergravity water pressure control module and the hypergravity mining control module. The kettle body temperature control module is connected to the high pressure reactor. The high pressure reactor, the manifold board, the data collection box, the hypergravity water pressure control module and the hypergravity mining control module are disposed on a hypergravity centrifuge air-conditioning chamber. The hydraulic oil station, a computer and the kettle body temperature control module are disposed outside the hypergravity centrifuge air-conditioning chamber.

A method of realizing an interactive virtual experiment is provided. A teacher may drags a minimum experimental unit into a demonstration area using a mouse. The above operational action is described as digital data in a panoramic learning platform. The data is transmitted to a student client. The same minimum experimental unit is automatically placed in the same position of the demonstration area of the virtual experiment subsystem of the student client according to the data. The teacher may operates the minimum experimental unit. The operational action is described as digital data in the panoramic learning platform. The data is sent to the student client. The same operational action is automatically performed in the student client based on the above data. The demonstration is performed on the minimum experimental units in the demonstration areas of the teacher client and the student client.

Embodiments provide experiment platforms comprising hardware, software, and user-specified data structures for user-conducted orbital experiments-by-proxy that focus on microgravity as a variable. The experiment is repeated in normal gravity as a control, on a similar platform that may or may not have been constructed and/or programmed by the user. Differences in experimental results performed by similar platforms are thus attributed to the influence of gravity on observed phenomena. Experiments are specified by user-defined data structures which govern the operation of control programs typically previously installed on orbital and ground hardware. Experimentation by proxy and parameter specification allows earthbound students to participate in space-based research at various levels of involvement and at sharply reduced cost, encouraging interest in science and technology in education and future work.

A lever system teaching tool includes a frame and an elongate member that is releasably coupled to the frame. The elongate member defines a plurality of mounting stations along its length. The elongate member can be pivotally or rotatably coupled to the fulcrum of the frame at any of the mounting stations. The elongate member includes repositories at opposite ends of the elongate member. The repositories are sized and shaped to retain one or more incremental loads.

A method of producing a book with recessed page element adapted to movably house dimensional elements for teaching STEAM-related lessons to readers.

Analyzing a prosthetic torso with synthetic skin and breast tissue includes monitoring a movement of a prosthetic torso with a sensor, and determining, based on data from the sensor, a viscoelastic characteristic of the prosthetic torso. The movement can include at least one of a jumping motion, a walking motion, or a running motion.

Shape-matrix geometric instruments having numerous applications including, but not limited to, anti-counterfeiting, graphical passwording, games, and geometry education. A shape-matrix geometric instrument is a manufacture and/or a method whose design is based on a shape-matrix that, in turn comprises a set of building blocks that are N-dimensional polytopes. Corner shapes are positioned in or near the interior corner spaces of at least ones of the shape-matrix building blocks. At least ones of the corner shapes differ from others in at least one property or aspect including, for example, geometric shape, orientation within the building block, and one or more surface finishes, such as color, shading, cross-hatching or real or apparent texture.
