Joint Service Cell

In the UK, all three services (Army, Royal Navy and Royal Air Force) are involved in the disposal of explosive devices. Military taskings are coordinated via a Joint Service Cell, although the initial call-out in response to a suspected explosive device is the responsibility of the police. 

Three basic problems may cause a total joint replacement to fail or to have a limited service life. The first problem, arises, because the elastic modulus of the stem greatly exceeds that of the bone. Flexural loading caused by walking creates local cyclic stress concentrations due to the non-compliance of the stem. These stresses can be intense and even severe enough to cause death of local bone cells. If this... 

The large variety of commercially available ground-glass joints, glass frits, and stopcocks, and the services of a glassblower make it easy to fabricate cells for special purposes, and a selected few of these are described in a later section. Most companies that sell electrochemical instrumentation offer a number of cells of different styles, as well as electrodes and other accessories. 

The first lamination efforts were mechanically successful but visually unsuccessful. Many bubbles and voids were found that were related to solder joints. Another visual problem was cell misalignment and poor placement. Both of these problem areas were not caused by the lamination materials but would have a profound effect on the marketability and field service life of the final laminated product.
