Biology of Inkfish - Splatting

“Splatting” is a severe state that all inklings can end up in due to major loss of ink. While inkfish in either of their forms can be splatted, this most often occurs in swim form or minutes within having been in swim form previously. During transformation into swim form, the skin lets more ink through, which makes the introduction of foreign liquids extremely non-ideal. During splatting, enough foreign liquid enters the system for the ink system to forcibly eject most, if not all, of the ink in the body as a response to unidentified ink. This happens when the ink hearts* all contract in unison to try to replace unfamiliar substances in the ink stream, or as an extreme response to a threat. Ink is sprayed out from all ink ducts in an explosive manner, which may deter an attacking predator and clear out the ink system, but which also leaves the inkfish stranded on the ground. 

*The ink hearts are minor organs situated at different points of the ink vein network, and are responsible for cycling and ejecting ink.

Inklings have extremely stretchy skin, as well as specialized muscle structures that keep their shape and strengthen when ink is coursed through them. Thus, when ink flow is redirected or reduced, these muscles shrink and flatten - when ink is removed from the muscles and the body, smaller inkfish can lose more than 50% of their total body weight. In inkfish, this adaptation is useful as the shape of the body and even the consistency can be greatly altered. However, it comes with the downside that an inkling that has lost most or all of its ink will struggle to move quickly and may be unable to escape from predators until enough ink is recovered, which may take minutes without outside help. To adapt, inkfish have also improvised a way to utilize their significantly lighter bodies and use the propulsion organ inside their heads to use the remaining bits of their ink to launch into the air and fill the organ with air to attempt to float to safety.

[A diagram of an inkling's basic ink layers. The major ink veins run across the body, pumping ink from the ink sac and splitting into hundreds of minor ink veins. Minor ink veins transport ink to the ink-holding tissue within muscles as well as the ink ducts, which bleed out ink through the skin. When these ink ducts are open, the flow of ink between the skin and the body is high.]

Splatting is a key element in some aspects of inkling culture, like Turf Wars and other extreme sports. In Turf Wars, enemy ink of another consistency will cause a rejection of all the circulating ink in an inkfish’s body in large amounts. A more controlled form of splatting can also occur as a defensive mechanism from extreme agitation, and is used in some attacks, such as the Kraken spin and especially Splashdown. These splatters are typically sustainable for users during Special states due to the high amount of ink that is being produced. Being in contact with other people's ink is known to boost ink production as a whole.

Splatting looks very violent to other species, but it is mostly harmless to inkfish with normal bodily functions. Inkfish in a safe environment will regenerate from splatting on their own given enough time to regain their ink, and splatting can be immediately treated if replacement ink is introduced. Splatted inkfish will absorb ink from their environment and replenish their bodies in a matter of seconds. The only common situation in which splatting is irrecoverable is in situations where the body is engulfed in water, in which case water being absorbed through the skin will flush the ink from the body and prevent recovery. This makes inkfish ill-fitted for being in the water, though they can use their air sacs to float on top of the surface, and attempt to swim or jet propel themselves onto land.

[An example showing the processes of the body when inkfish are splatted. The body rejects ink of the wrong color by forcefully ejecting all the ink in the ink sac and system, leaving the body in a low-ink "splatted" state. Inkfish are able to draw air into their mantles to utilize their reduced body weight and jet propulsion abilities to fly to an area where ink can be absorbed back into the body, which is a fast process.]

TF2 x ATLA AU :3

Lore, close ups, and doodles underneath !

Scout, Pauling, and Ludwig are the main three- scout, who’s an (admittedly shitty) airbender but not the avatar, who ran away after his father left. Once spotted by fire nation soldiers, he is presumed to be the avatar- and scout basks in the glory of his false identity. Pauling- a studious, too serious for her own good, non-bender, who’s Medic’s student. She’s of the southern water tribe, treating medic like her paternal figure after the disappearance of her aunt. Medic is (unbeknownst to pauling and scout) a blood bender who was exiled for his practices. He doesn’t seem to care for anyone or anything, also being very jovial and cheery.

All Pauling and Scout know is that Ludwig was exiled from the northern water tribe then fled to the south for an undisclosed reason. Pauling never bothered to pry and the Scout was too intimidated to. Here the avatar cycle has indeed been broken. It’s up to a group of nine ragtag men and one mousy girl to defeat Gray Mann.

And the main three villains are soldier, demo, and sniper who're all fire nation folk. Sort of the team rocket; never truly competent enough to cause real damage, that or their hearts truly aren’t in it.

Soldier's a fire bender who specializes in jet propulsion and was kicked out of the army. He thinks if he steals back the avatar, they'll let him back in. A weapon since childhood, once a bully, always a bully, or so he’s heard.Character arc being the realization the fire nation army isn't worth fighting for. Surprisingly, he is very good with spirits, opposite to his best friend, Tavish, who despises them.

Demo’s just trying to impress his mum and be a good friend to the Soldier. People pleasing tendencies, that's his character arc. He's supposedly a non bender who's mighty good with swords; but underneath his inconspicuous-ish eye patch holds a combustion bending tattoo. Only Jane knows this. Well-versed in calligraphy.

Sniper is a 26 year old yuyan archer who was discharged for failing a mission while he was young. He joined the other two with the same goal as the Soldier. His yuyan archer tattoo still remains. He's a non bender with excellent aim, who grew up on the rural outskirts of the fire nation. His character arc is something about not adhering to expectations and learning who he's fighting for; a combination of the demoman and the soldier’s lessons.

Spy's a crusty airbender constantly sporting a mask to hide his tattoos, and knife. Nobody has a clue where he's from and he takes orders from whoever pays him best. His airbending tricks are so subtle, the public believes him to be a crafty nonbender. Usually said tricks are only invisibility and voice alteration. While not assassinating political figures he traverses the spirit world looking for his wife, a fellow air nomad, avoiding physical aging in brief sprints of time. He returns on a well paid mission to kill the “avatar,” which was presumably the scout. Little does he know, that weird whiteboy is just some lame airbender. Who’s also his son. His bad.

Engineers the metalbender; an art perfected by his ancestors and passed down in whispers to him. I haven't developed him much. He teaches the Scout what he knows while obscuring information on how he got that metal arm. Him and the Pyro have a shared love of blacksmithing. From an explosion, he thinks..

Pyro's a spirit probably. Nobody knows what he is. Where he’s from? Pyro. What’s his gender? Pyro. Guy who sets things on fire. Presumably human judging by his questionable use of what looks to be fire bending. And also the Spy's companion! They met in the spirit world. He and the Soldier form a close bond quite quickly thanks to their good graces with spirits (to Tavish’s immense dismay).

Heavy's an earth bender who continues to win in underground fights. Residing in ba sing se with his three sisters and elderly mother, scout pauling and medic meet him in an earth bender championship. Despite what his appearance suggests, his patience is unmatched, which is his greatest strength. He has near -perfect seismic sense. He and the Medic get on quite well, and after the fire lord has been struck down, form a duo in the ring, earning even more won championships.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY @cxlesstial ur old now lol but enjoy some updated mermaid song art🤪 more information about why I designed them the way I did below the cut!

Raph and Leo are modeled after open ocean sports fish like tuna and marlins. They’ve got sharp, aerodynamic fins to help them slice through the water, including dorsal fins to help prevent them from rolling over as they swim, pectoral fins (on the arms; arms themselves are kinda like pectoral fins on mermaids) to help them steer, and adipose fins on the hips and lower tail to help with additional stability and to sense the flow of water currents.

Mikey and April aren’t modeled after any specific fish, but I had reef fish in mind as I designed them. They’re the most brightly colored of all of them, and they’re designed for agility with pectoral fins for steering, pelvic fins for abrupt stops and turns, and no fins like the dorsal fin which would prevent them from barrel rolling if they wanted to.

Casey and Donnie are modeled after whales. The most obvious is that they’re covered in skin, not scales, and their fins are cartilage rather than suspended between rays (thin bones) like with the other mermaids. They’ve got large caudal fins for propulsion, dorsal fins for stability, and pectoral fins on their arms for steering. They were designed not for speed or agility, but stamina; they can swim for long distances over open ocean. Their coloring is also inspired by whales; darker on the top and lighter on the bottom is a form of camouflage. Casey in particular looks like an orca.

Nereids [Fallout Lore Overview]

Finally doing a lose lore write up for the mutations Varmint has. They developed due to radioactive waste running into the ocean that Varmint’s fishing village is on in northern NCR and can only be found there and in Far Harbor. They are, in essence, maritime predators.

Traits of Nereids:

Generally tall in stature with an extremely wide wing span and large hands and feet for propulsion in the water. They sport dense muscle partially hidden beneath a permanent layer of “baby fat” that acts as insulation in freezing waters. Their body temperature adapts to their environment and they can easily withstand the cold, but are particularly vulnerable to dry heat with an increased risk of heat stroke or exhaustion.

Natural endurant, they have lower oxygen needs, slower resting heart rate, and can withstand higher pressures.

Gills run down either side of their torso and allow full water breathing. While they are protected by flaps of cartilage and skin, they remain somewhat fragile and highly sensitive.

They also have a set of third, clear eyelids that are used to help them see more clearly underwater and protect their eyes. Night vision is enhanced to a certain degree.

Their body hair is very sparse and thin, similar to peach fuzz. The tips of their fingers are equipped with additional grippers for catching slippery prey. The texture is similar to that of a cat’s tongue. Some Nereids are born with webbed hands and/or feet, but not all.

They have a slightly echoing quality to their voices which is especially noticeable when singing or yelling and are able to throw their voices much further than standard humans. These adaptions help them to communicate underwater

Radiation resistance comes with the territory but, though it is unlikely to kill them, they may experience the effects of radiation sickness at high doses. It remains unclear whether a Nereid can undergo ghoulification or not.

Notes on culture:

Nereids only account for about a fourth of the village's population and as a result, they mutations are highly coveted within the community. They are appointed as hunters to bring in fish for both food and trade and are considered the backbone of their economy.

Breeding with other nereids is preferred to keep the mutations strong. For a nereid to move away from the village is highly frowned upon for fear of the mutations dying out and will be met with attempts to force them back. If they do not concede to these efforts, they are cut off fully from all contact with friends and family.

As a result, seeing one away from the village is extremely rare.

Notes on Far Harbor Nereids:

Sport very similar mutations with a few editions and developments placing them further from humans. They have never been in contact or known about their west coast counterparts and their mutations are more convergent evolution than anything.

They are not directly related to Mirelurk Kings either but underwent some similar changes. As a result most have pink or red skin tones. In the same vein they can use sonic attacks by projecting their voices. The echoing of their voices on land is more pronounced and noticeable than in their west coast counterparts.

They have random sections of scales scattered over parts of their bodies and all of them have webbed hands/feet, often with claws.

Unlocking the hidden power of boiling — for energy, space, and beyond

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/unlocking-the-hidden-power-of-boiling-for-energy-space-and-beyond/

Unlocking the hidden power of boiling — for energy, space, and beyond

Most people take boiling water for granted. For Associate Professor Matteo Bucci, uncovering the physics behind boiling has been a decade-long journey filled with unexpected challenges and new insights.

The seemingly simple phenomenon is extremely hard to study in complex systems like nuclear reactors, and yet it sits at the core of a wide range of important industrial processes. Unlocking its secrets could thus enable advances in efficient energy production, electronics cooling, water desalination, medical diagnostics, and more.

“Boiling is important for applications way beyond nuclear,” says Bucci, who earned tenure at MIT in July. “Boiling is used in 80 percent of the power plants that produce electricity. My research has implications for space propulsion, energy storage, electronics, and the increasingly important task of cooling computers.”

Bucci’s lab has developed new experimental techniques to shed light on a wide range of boiling and heat transfer phenomena that have limited energy projects for decades. Chief among those is a problem caused by bubbles forming so quickly they create a band of vapor across a surface that prevents further heat transfer. In 2023, Bucci and collaborators developed a unifying principle governing the problem, known as the boiling crisis, which could enable more efficient nuclear reactors and prevent catastrophic failures.

For Bucci, each bout of progress brings new possibilities — and new questions to answer.

“What’s the best paper?” Bucci asks. “The best paper is the next one. I think Alfred Hitchcock used to say it doesn’t matter how good your last movie was. If your next one is poor, people won’t remember it. I always tell my students that our next paper should always be better than the last. It’s a continuous journey of improvement.”

From engineering to bubbles

The Italian village where Bucci grew up had a population of about 1,000 during his childhood. He gained mechanical skills by working in his father’s machine shop and by taking apart and reassembling appliances like washing machines and air conditioners to see what was inside. He also gained a passion for cycling, competing in the sport until he attended the University of Pisa for undergraduate and graduate studies.

In college, Bucci was fascinated with matter and the origins of life, but he also liked building things, so when it came time to pick between physics and engineering, he decided nuclear engineering was a good middle ground.

“I have a passion for construction and for understanding how things are made,” Bucci says. “Nuclear engineering was a very unlikely but obvious choice. It was unlikely because in Italy, nuclear was already out of the energy landscape, so there were very few of us. At the same time, there were a combination of intellectual and practical challenges, which is what I like.”

For his PhD, Bucci went to France, where he met his wife, and went on to work at a French national lab. One day his department head asked him to work on a problem in nuclear reactor safety known as transient boiling. To solve it, he wanted to use a method for making measurements pioneered by MIT Professor Jacopo Buongiorno, so he received grant money to become a visiting scientist at MIT in 2013. He’s been studying boiling at MIT ever since.

Today Bucci’s lab is developing new diagnostic techniques to study boiling and heat transfer along with new materials and coatings that could make heat transfer more efficient. The work has given researchers an unprecedented view into the conditions inside a nuclear reactor.

“The diagnostics we’ve developed can collect the equivalent of 20 years of experimental work in a one-day experiment,” Bucci says.

That data, in turn, led Bucci to a remarkably simple model describing the boiling crisis.

“The effectiveness of the boiling process on the surface of nuclear reactor cladding determines the efficiency and the safety of the reactor,” Bucci explains. “It’s like a car that you want to accelerate, but there is an upper limit. For a nuclear reactor, that upper limit is dictated by boiling heat transfer, so we are interested in understanding what that upper limit is and how we can overcome it to enhance the reactor performance.”

Another particularly impactful area of research for Bucci is two-phase immersion cooling, a process wherein hot server parts bring liquid to boil, then the resulting vapor condenses on a heat exchanger above to create a constant, passive cycle of cooling.

“It keeps chips cold with minimal waste of energy, significantly reducing the electricity consumption and carbon dioxide emissions of data centers,” Bucci explains. “Data centers emit as much CO2 as the entire aviation industry. By 2040, they will account for over 10 percent of emissions.”

Supporting students

Bucci says working with students is the most rewarding part of his job. “They have such great passion and competence. It’s motivating to work with people who have the same passion as you.”

“My students have no fear to explore new ideas,” Bucci adds. “They almost never stop in front of an obstacle — sometimes to the point where you have to slow them down and put them back on track.”

In running the Red Lab in the Department of Nuclear Science and Engineering, Bucci tries to give students independence as well as support.

“We’re not educating students, we’re educating future researchers,” Bucci says. “I think the most important part of our work is to not only provide the tools, but also to give the confidence and the self-starting attitude to fix problems. That can be business problems, problems with experiments, problems with your lab mates.”

Some of the more unique experiments Bucci’s students do require them to gather measurements while free falling in an airplane to achieve zero gravity.

“Space research is the big fantasy of all the kids,” says Bucci, who joins students in the experiments about twice a year. “It’s very fun and inspiring research for students. Zero g gives you a new perspective on life.”

Applying AI

Bucci is also excited about incorporating artificial intelligence into his field. In 2023, he was a co-recipient of a multi-university research initiative (MURI) project in thermal science dedicated solely to machine learning. In a nod to the promise AI holds in his field, Bucci also recently founded a journal called AI Thermal Fluids to feature AI-driven research advances.

“Our community doesn’t have a home for people that want to develop machine-learning techniques,” Bucci says. “We wanted to create an avenue for people in computer science and thermal science to work together to make progress. I think we really need to bring computer scientists into our community to speed this process up.”

Bucci also believes AI can be used to process huge reams of data gathered using the new experimental techniques he’s developed as well as to model phenomena researchers can’t yet study.

“It’s possible that AI will give us the opportunity to understand things that cannot be observed, or at least guide us in the dark as we try to find the root causes of many problems,” Bucci says.
