Sweep Optimization to Reduce Aerodynamic Loss in a Transonic Axial Compressor with Upstream Boundary Layer Ingestion [PDF]
The aerodynamic performance of axial compressor rotors is negatively affected by the ingestion of boundary layer fluids upstream. As the boundary layer becomes thicker, the blade tip load increases and the local loss is aggravated, especially under off ...

Harmonic Forcing from Distortion in a Boundary Layer Ingesting Fan
Integrating a fan with a boundary layer ingestion (BLI) configuration into an aircraft fuselage can improve propulsion efficiency by utilizing the lower momentum airflow in the boundary layer developed due to the surface drag of the fuselage.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.
