Adjusting bone mass for differences in projected bone area and other confounding variables: an allometric perspective. [PDF]
The traditional method of assessing bone mineral density (BMD; given by bone mineral content [BMC] divided by projected bone area [Ap], BMD = BMC/Ap) has come under strong criticism by various authors. Their criticism being that the projected bone "area"

Characteristic of boiling heat transfer of ammonia on evaporator using surface – treated aluminum heat transfer surface (Case: herring-bone surface plate) [PDF]
The Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) usually uses plate heat exchangers as evaporator and condenser. The heat transfer plates of the plate heat exchanger are usually made of titanium, because the material has thigh seawater and ammonia corrosion ...
