It described experimentation with steroids on boys as young as 11, along with such odd and dubious methods as trying to enhance buoyancy in swimmers by injecting air into their colons.
In marine environments, the plates are large and thick; in freshwater, the fish have evolved to have smaller, lighter-weight plates, perhaps to enhance buoyancy, increase body flexibility and better slip out of the grasp of large, hungry insects.
They efficiently overcome buoyancy at depth by the active mechanism of lung collapse, while at surface their lighter bones enhance buoyancy, allowing them to float with relatively little expenditure of energy.
Skin friction at the surface is enhanced by buoyancy ratio and Casson number.
The results indicate that the mean velocity and the turbulence quantities are enhanced by buoyancy.
It was previously shown that t-butanol enhanced the buoyancy of precipitated Aloe vera L. protein more efficiently than other alcohols studied (Tana et al. 2015).
The small protoconch size and the voluminous, potentially gas filled, first chamber greatly enhanced the buoyancy and swimming ability of the eggs and the cephalopod hatchlings.
The small spherical apex of orthocerids and lituitids potentially enhanced the buoyancy of the eggs and the early hatchlings and indicates a planktonic early juvenile phase in these cephalopods, similar to bactritoids.
If there is enough instability and moisture and the background winds are favourable, the heat released by condensation will further enhance the buoyancy of the rising air mass.
For this purpose, efforts are needed to find eco-friendly materials with superhydrophobicity properties, making them selective for the absorption of oil as well as enhancing their buoyancy, recyclability and price (Korhonen et al. 2011).
