These measures should be taken with a participatory and proactive approach.
♦ Until a sustainable solution is achieved, effective "Physical Precluding" must be regarded accompanied by other necessary measures like vaccination. The transmission capability of some new, mutant variants of SARS-CoV-2 is substantially high, and an increasing reduction in the effectiveness of using face masks "alone" in precluding the infection with such new variants is alarming. An effective physical precluding by the general public in usual spaces can be accomplished by applying suitable face shields together with expedient masks under the shields. Providing a practical and economical method for physical precluding, "along with widespread distribution of face shields", can also bring about promoting and raising the culture of health and prevention.
♦ It seems the most important function of the mask under the shield is to reduce the amount and especially the "velocity" of the particles that come out through the mouth when speaking, coughing, and sneezing. By "an effective reduction in the velocity of such particles (via using a cover on the mouth under the shield)" and in view of "the function of the shield placed in front of the cover" and "the main role of larger particles in the Covid-19 transmission", any risk of the problematic particles that could eventually come out from around the shield will decrease. About this, conducting a simple, applied experiment about the effectiveness of the concomitant application of the face shield with various face masks that "Only Cover the Mouth Under the Shield", as "the facilitated method of simultaneous use of the face shield and mask by the public", is highly recommended. Likewise, the effectiveness of utilizing various face masks, also including "economical Washable cloth covers", "worn only on the mouth under the shield" requires to be meticulously experienced. (Anyhow, covering only the mouth under the face shield can generally make it easier for many people to use the shield.)

► Here, a new class of high-performance composites, called “Lightweight Flexible Nonlinear Compos... more ► Here, a new class of high-performance composites, called “Lightweight Flexible Nonlinear Composites (LFNLC)”, has been briefly introduced. This class of composites has its own structural and functional characteristics as Nonlinear behavior in bending and porous or porous-like texture.
♦ The cementitious LFNLC is termed “Elastic Composite, Reinforced Lightweight Concrete (ECRLC)”. The ECRLC provides lightweight beams with substantial strain capability, resilience modulus and toughness in bending, resulting in a considerable increase in bearing capacity while weighing significantly less. The failure mode in low-height and ultra-lightweight beams made of the ECRLC is not compressive and brittle.
♦ This lightweight, flexible composite is a non-monopolistic, versatile and comparatively low-price material. Likewise, the virtues such as resilience and flexibility, workability, lightness, durability, and high formability are important in architecture.
♦ In general, lightweight and integrated construction has a key importance in earthquake resistance. Therefore, the ECRLC can be especially beneficial in earthquake-prone regions.
♦ Considering the flexibility and resilience of this formable system, it can also be used to build non-brittle reinforced ultra-lightweight and insulation sandwich panels, safe and lightweight guards, and shock-resistant structures. Likewise, they are utilizable in some infrastructures and explosion-proof pieces with suitable behavior, resilience, and toughness.
♦ This work presents a practical method for converting a rigid solid into a flexible material with lower density or increasing the elasticity of a flexible material while decreasing the density. Essentially, this method entails creating a porous or porous-like texture in the material, reinforcing appropriately, and providing it with the necessary integrity. (For example, properly dispersing lightweight aggregates all over the reinforced, conjoined matrix can produce a porous-like texture.) By this process, the resilience modulus and toughness in bending rise and the density reduces.
♦ This paper briefly presents the functional and structural characteristics of the LFNLCs and some applications and Reproducible examples of the ECRLC.

♦ The Resilient Composite Systems (R.C.S.) could be counted as "The Methodically Reinforced Nonlinear Porous Materials", also having the high specific modulus of resilience in flexure. They are the compound materials, with some particular structural properties, in which, contrary to the basic geometrical assumption of the flexure theory in Solid Mechanics, the strain changes in the beam height during bending is typically "Nonlinear". The Resilient Composite Systems are made by expediently creating the disseminated suitable hollow pores and/or by distributing the appropriate lightweight aggregates throughout the methodically reinforced, fibered conjoined matrix so that; "the strain changes in the beam height during bending" is typically "nonlinear". Thereby, by applying the mentioned method to make the said composite systems, "considerably increasing the modulus of resilience and the bearing capacity in bending" together with "the significant decrease of the weight" and "the removal of the beam fracture possibility of primary compressive type" have been feasible. Through making these particular consistently functioning systems, the above-stated paradoxical virtues have been concomitantly fulfilled in "one functioning unit" altogether.
♦ The RCS (with the mentioned general structural properties and specific functional criteria) whose cement materials include the "C-S-H (Calcium Silicate hydrate) crystals" have been termed "Elastic Composite, Reinforced Lightweight Concrete (E.C.R.L.C.)".
♦ The RCS and ECRLC as a kind of RCS could be used in many cases. For instance, "Constructing Lightweightly and Consistently", also with practically utilizing the RCS and ECRLC in particular, can be counted as the pivotal and practical tactic to effectively increase the resistance & safety of the constructions against "earthquake" and lateral forces, in the large extent. For example, using some lightweight and insulating, "non-brittle", reinforced sandwich panels or 3D-panels, "with the high modulus of resilience and appropriate behavior against the bending loads and impacts", for construction could be taken into consideration according to the case... [It is worth remarking that; contrary to the ECRLC, the usual reinforced lightweight concretes, especially in the very low densities, are dramatically brittle; they do not have the appropriate behavior and resistance against the high bending loads and impacts.]

● "Resilient Composite Systems (RCS)":
♦ "Resilient Composite Systems" (RCS) are the compound materials, having some particular structural properties, in which, contrary to the basic geometrical assumption of the flexure theory in Solid Mechanics, the strain changes in the beam height during bending is typically "Nonlinear". The RCS could be counted as "The Methodically Reinforced Nonlinear Porous Materials", also having the high specific modulus of resilience in flexure. (Elastic Composite, Reinforced Lightweight Concrete; ECRLC is a type of RCS with the mentioned specifics.)
♦ Generally, the Resilient Composite Systems comprise these components as the main, necessary elements:
• 1) Mesh (Lattice);
• 2) Fibers or strands;
• 3) Conjoined matrix, having the disseminated suitable pores and/or the disseminated appropriate lightweight aggregates beads or particles. [Here, the general term of "lightweight aggregate" has a broad meaning, also including the polymeric and non-polymeric beads or particles.]
♦ The Resilient Composite Systems are made by creating the disseminated suitable hollow pores and/or by distributing the appropriate lightweight aggregates throughout the reinforced, fibered conjoined matrix so that; "the strain changes in the beam height during bending" is typically "nonlinear". Thereby, by applying the mentioned method to make the said particular composite systems, "considerably increasing the modulus of resilience and the bearing capacity in bending" together with "the significant decrease of the weight" and "the removal of the beam fracture possibility of primary compressive type" have been feasible. Through making these particular consistently (unitedly, integratedly) functioning systems, the stated paradoxical virtues have been concomitantly fulfilled in one functioning unit altogether.
♦ Generally, in these consistently functioning units, the amount and the use manner of the mentioned components in the organized system are so that; the reciprocal interactions among the components finally lead to the "typically nonlinear strain changes in the beam height during bending" (as the "basic functional character" of these systems with the specific testable criteria and indices) and the functional specifications fulfillment of the system.
♦ In the RCS in general, the main strategy to raise the modulus of resilience in bending is "increasing the strain capability of the system in bending" within the elastic limit.
♦ Here, the main tactic to realize the stated strategy is: "creating the suitable hollow pores and/or using the appropriate lightweight aggregates, all disseminated throughout the methodically reinforced conjoined matrix", to provide the possibility for occurring of the expedient internal deformities in the matrix during the bending course, which could lead to the more appropriate distribution of the stresses and the strains throughout the system and the more strain capability of the beam in flexure. On the other hand, only creating the hollow pores and/or using the lightweight aggregates in the matrix, by itself, not only cannot lead to the mentioned goals but also brings about weakening of the matrix and its fragility. Hence, concomitantly, the matrix should be well supported and strengthened. Here, this essentially ameliorating and strengthening the matrix are performed by giving attention to "the internal consistency of the matrix" and also via "employing the expedient reinforcements in two complementary levels": 1) Using the fibers to the better distribution of the tensile stresses and strains in the matrix, and to increase the matrix endurance and the modulus of resilience in tension and bending; 2) Using the mesh or lattice to better distribution of the tensile stresses and strains in the system, and to increase the system endurance and the modulus of resilience in tension and bending.
♦ In these systems, the presence of the mentioned hollow pores and/or lightweight aggregates disseminated throughout the conjoined matrix (which has been ameliorated through making "an integrated, reticular structure") provides the possibility for occurring of the expedient internal deformities in the matrix during the bending course. By the way, this can lead to the less accumulation of the internal stresses in the certain points of the matrix during bending, the better absorption and control of the stresses, and providing the more strain capability of the beam, especially within the elastic limit.
♦ The occurrence of the remarked internal deformities in the said methodically reinforced matrix during the bending course also means; the occurrence of the deformities in the said hollow pores and/or lightweight aggregates well disseminated throughout the conjoined matrix, in two different forms. Indeed, we have the internal deformities in the fibered lightweight matrix of the system throughout the bending course, in two main different forms, leading to: A) The comparative increase of the thickness (height) of the in-compressing layers (particularly in the upper parts of the beam) and the conversion of some internal compressive stresses to the internal tensile stresses (on the axis perpendicular to the mentioned internal compressive tensions) in the in-compressing layers; B) The comparative decrease of the thickness (height) of the in-tension layers (particularly in the lower parts of the beam) and the conversion of some internal tensile stresses to the internal compressive stresses (on the axis perpendicular to the mentioned internal tensile tensions) in the in-tension layers.
♦ In the under-bending sections of the "Resilient Composite Systems", the deformities occurring in the "conjoined layers perpendicular to the applied load direction" during the bending course are so that; "the initially plane sections perpendicular to the beam axis" typically shift from "the plane status" to "the curve status" during the bending course. Thereby, the basic geometrical assumption of the flexure theory in Solid Mechanics ("linearly" being of the strain changes in the beam height during bending) and the respective trigonometric equations & equalities are mainly overshadowed in these systems.
♦ This way, through occurring of the remarked internal deformities in the strengthened matrix during the flexure course, the stresses are more distributed and absorbed, and the rise rate of the internal stresses in the matrix ... reduces. ...

(The RCS could be counted as "The Methodically Reinforced Nonlinear Porous Materials", also having the high specific modulus of resilience in flexure.)
♦ Through employing this integrated structure, with significantly high strain capability and modulus of resilience in bending, we can achieve the high bearing capacities in beams with the secure fracture pattern, in less weight.
♦ Due to the system particulars and its behavior in bending, the usual calculation of the necessary equilibrium steel amount to attain the low-steel bending sections with the secure fracture pattern in the beams and its related limitations do not become propounded. Thereby, the strategic deadlock of the high possibility of the brittle fracture pattern in the bending elements made of the usual reinforced lightweight concretes, especially about the low-thickness bending elements as slabs, is unlocked.
♦ This simple, applied technology and the related components and systems can have several applications in the road and building industries. (It can also be used in making the resilient pieces and constructions "with appropriate behavior and high resistance against severe blasts and shocks.)
♦ Regarding the "strategic importance of Lightweight and Integrated Construction in the practical increase of the resistance and safety against earthquake" and considering the appropriate behavior of this "resilient", durable structure against the dynamic loads, shakes, impacts, blasts, and shocks and the possibility of making some lightweight and insulating, non-brittle, reinforced sandwich panels and pieces, this resilient system and its components can especially be useful in the "seismic areas".
♦ This system can also be employed in constructing the vibration and impact absorber bearing pieces & slabs, which can be used in the "Railroad & Subway Structures" too.
♦ Here, the "Resilient Composite Systems (RCS)" and particularly, the ECRLC as a type of the RCS have been concisely presented. [By the way, an instance of the said new structure and its components and the results of some performed experiments (as bending loading and compressive loading of the slabs made of this structure, similar to ASTM E 72 Standard) have been shown in the related pictures & figures.]

/ ● General Review:
.
• A kind of "Elastic Composite, Reinforced Lightweight Concrete" with the said specifics is a type of the "Resilient Composite Systems (R.C.S.)" in which, contrary to the basic geometrical assumption of flexure theory in the Solid Mechanics, the strain changes in the beam height during bending is typically "Non-linear".
.
• Indeed, the RCS, as the Elastic Composite, Reinforced Lightweight Concrete (ECRLC), do not behave as most of the solid materials in bending.
.
• In the "Resilient Composite Systems", distributed pores and/or appropriate lightweight aggregates or beads, accompanied by the reticular structure of the strengthened conjoined matrix, bring about the expedient internal shape changes during bending and continuing the elasticity in bending with the said nonlinearly pattern. This means better distribution of the stresses and strains and better utilizing the potential capacities of the employed reinforcements in bending and tension; whereas, in the usual lightweight concretes for instance, distributed hollow pores (such as the gas bulbs in the cellular concretes) or lightweight aggregates (such as Plastic, Rubber or polystyrene beads or any other kind of lightweight aggregates such as Perlite and Vermiculite) decrease the modulus of resilience in bending and could increase "the possibility of beam fracture of brittle and primary compressive type" in bending (compared to the concrete with higher density) according to the case.
.
• In this way, by using the mentioned method to make the said particular composite systems, we could considerably increase the modulus of resilience and bearing capacity in bending "together with" significant decrease of the weight and also the possibility of beam fracture of primary compressive type. Through making these particular integrated functioning systems, for the first time, the said (paradoxical) properties have been concomitantly fulfilled in "one functioning unit" altogether.
.
• Respect to the special pattern of the strain changes during bending in the particular Resilient Composite System termed ECRLC, this system as an integrated functioning unit with the reticular arrangement and texture has more strain capability (particularly within the elastic limit), energy absorption and load bearing capacities in bending compared to the usual reinforced concrete beams.
.
• Thereby, through employing this applied structure, solving some of the main problems in lightweight concretes application, especially the deadlock of brittle and insecure being of fracture pattern in many of the usual reinforced lightweight concrete structures, is provided; reaching to the high bearing capacities in bending elements (even with low dimensions & weights) is to hand, and getting access to a simple and practical opportunity for "qualitative development of possibilities of using lightweight concretes" (especially with oven-dry densities of < 1350-1400kg/m3 and compressive strengths of <14-17mpa, and even with oven-dry densities of < 800kg/m3) is conceivable.
.
• Naturally, by more studies in the field, these structures and their applications in various fields could be developed more.

The RCS could be counted as "The Methodically Reinforced Nonlinear Porous Materials", also having the high specific modulus of resilience in flexure. (Elastic Composite, Reinforced Lightweight Concrete; ECRLC is a type of RCS with the mentioned specifics.)
♦ Generally, the Resilient Composite Systems comprise these components as the main, necessary elements:
• 1) Mesh (Lattice);
• 2) Fibers or strands;
• 3) Conjoined matrix, having the disseminated suitable pores and/or the disseminated appropriate lightweight aggregates beads or particles. [Here, the general term of "lightweight aggregate" has a broad meaning, also including the polymeric and non-polymeric beads or particles.]
♦ The Resilient Composite Systems are made by creating the disseminated suitable hollow pores and/or by distributing the appropriate lightweight aggregates throughout the reinforced, fibered conjoined matrix so that; "the strain changes in the beam height during bending" is typically "nonlinear". Thereby, by applying the mentioned method to make the said particular composite systems, "considerably increasing the modulus of resilience and the bearing capacity in bending" together with "the significant decrease of the weight" and "the removal of the beam fracture possibility of primary compressive type" have been feasible. Through making these particular consistently (unitedly, integratedly) functioning systems, the stated paradoxical virtues have been concomitantly fulfilled in one functioning unit altogether.
♦ Generally, in these consistently functioning units, the amount and the use manner of the mentioned components in the organized system are so that; the reciprocal interactions among the components finally lead to the "typically nonlinear strain changes in the beam height during bending" (as the "basic functional character" of these systems with the specific testable criteria and indices) and the functional specifications fulfillment of the system.
♦ In the RCS in general, the main strategy to raise the modulus of resilience in bending is "increasing the strain capability of the system in bending" within the elastic limit.
♦ Here, the main tactic to realize the stated strategy is: "creating the suitable hollow pores and/or using the appropriate lightweight aggregates, all disseminated throughout the methodically reinforced conjoined matrix", to provide the possibility for occurring of the expedient internal deformities in the matrix during the bending course, which could lead to the more appropriate distribution of the stresses and the strains throughout the system and the more strain capability of the beam in flexure. On the other hand, only creating the hollow pores and/or using the lightweight aggregates in the matrix, by itself, not only cannot lead to the mentioned goals but also brings about weakening of the matrix and its fragility. Hence, concomitantly, the matrix should be well supported and strengthened. Here, this essentially ameliorating and strengthening the matrix are performed by giving attention to "the internal consistency of the matrix" and also via "employing the expedient reinforcements in two complementary levels": 1) Using the fibers to the better distribution of the tensile stresses and strains in the matrix, and to increase the matrix endurance and the modulus of resilience in tension and bending; 2) Using the mesh or lattice to better distribution of the tensile stresses and strains in the system, and to increase the system endurance and the modulus of resilience in tension and bending.
♦ In these systems, the presence of the mentioned hollow pores and/or lightweight aggregates disseminated throughout the conjoined matrix (which has been ameliorated through making "an integrated, reticular structure") provides the possibility for occurring of the expedient internal deformities in the matrix during the bending course. By the way, this can lead to the less accumulation of the internal stresses in the certain points of the matrix during bending, the better absorption and control of the stresses, and providing the more strain capability of the beam, especially within the elastic limit.
♦ The occurrence of the remarked internal deformities in the said methodically reinforced matrix during the bending course also means; the occurrence of the deformities in the said hollow pores and/or lightweight aggregates well disseminated throughout the conjoined matrix, in two different forms. Indeed, we have the internal deformities in the fibered lightweight matrix of the system throughout the bending course, in two main different forms, leading to: A) The comparative increase of the thickness (height) of the in-compressing layers (particularly in the upper parts of the beam) and the conversion of some internal compressive stresses to the internal tensile stresses (on the axis perpendicular to the mentioned internal compressive tensions) in the in-compressing layers; B) The comparative decrease of the thickness (height) of the in-tension layers (particularly in the lower parts of the beam) and the conversion of some internal tensile stresses to the internal compressive stresses (on the axis perpendicular to the mentioned internal tensile tensions) in the in-tension layers.
♦ In the under-bending sections of the "Resilient Composite Systems", the deformities occurring in the "conjoined layers perpendicular to the applied load direction" during the bending course are so that; "the initially plane sections perpendicular to the beam axis" typically shift from "the plane status" to "the curve status" during the bending course. Thereby, the basic geometrical assumption of the flexure theory in Solid Mechanics ("linearly" being of the strain changes in the beam height during bending) and the respective trigonometric equations & equalities are mainly overshadowed in these systems.
♦ This way, through occurring of the remarked internal deformities in the strengthened matrix during the flexure course, the stresses are more distributed and absorbed, and the rise rate of the internal stresses in the matrix ... reduces. ...

♦ Through employing this integrated structure, with significantly high strain capability and modulus of resilience in bending, we can achieve the high bearing capacities in beams with the secure fracture pattern, in less weight.
♦ Due to the system particulars and its behavior in bending, the usual calculation of the necessary equilibrium steel amount to attain the low-steel bending sections with the secure fracture pattern in the beams and its related limitations do not become propounded. Thereby, the strategic deadlock of the high possibility of the brittle fracture pattern in the bending elements made of the usual reinforced lightweight concretes, especially about the low-thickness bending elements as slabs, is unlocked.
♦ This simple, applied technology and the related components and systems can have several applications in the road and building industries. (It can also be used in making the resilient pieces and constructions "with appropriate behavior and high resistance against severe blasts and shocks.)
♦ Regarding the "strategic importance of Lightweight and Integrated Construction in the practical increase of the resistance and safety against earthquake" and considering the appropriate behavior of this "resilient", durable structure against the dynamic loads, shakes, impacts, blasts, and shocks and the possibility of making some lightweight and insulating, non-brittle, reinforced sandwich panels and pieces, this resilient system and its components can especially be useful in the "seismic areas".
♦ This system can also be employed in constructing the vibration and impact absorber bearing pieces & slabs, which can be used in the "Railroad & Subway Structures" too.
♦ Here, the "Resilient Composite Systems (RCS)" and particularly, the ECRLC as a type of the RCS have been concisely presented. [By the way, an instance of the said new structure and its components and the results of some performed experiments (as bending loading and compressive loading of the slabs made of this structure, similar to ASTM E 72 Standard) have been shown in the related pictures & figures.]

/ ● General Review:
.
• A kind of "Elastic Composite, Reinforced Lightweight Concrete" with the said specifics is a type of the "Resilient Composite Systems (R.C.S.)" in which, contrary to the basic geometrical assumption of flexure theory in the Solid Mechanics, the strain changes in the beam height during bending is typically "Non-linear".
.
• Indeed, the RCS, as the Elastic Composite, Reinforced Lightweight Concrete (ECRLC), do not behave as most of the solid materials in bending.
.
• In the "Resilient Composite Systems", distributed pores and/or appropriate lightweight aggregates or beads, accompanied by the reticular structure of the strengthened conjoined matrix, bring about the expedient internal shape changes during bending and continuing the elasticity in bending with the said nonlinearly pattern. This means better distribution of the stresses and strains and better utilizing the potential capacities of the employed reinforcements in bending and tension; whereas, in the usual lightweight concretes for instance, distributed hollow pores (such as the gas bulbs in the cellular concretes) or lightweight aggregates (such as Plastic, Rubber or polystyrene beads or any other kind of lightweight aggregates such as Perlite and Vermiculite) decrease the modulus of resilience in bending and could increase "the possibility of beam fracture of brittle and primary compressive type" in bending (compared to the concrete with higher density) according to the case.
.
• In this way, by using the mentioned method to make the said particular composite systems, we could considerably increase the modulus of resilience and bearing capacity in bending "together with" significant decrease of the weight and also the possibility of beam fracture of primary compressive type. Through making these particular integrated functioning systems, for the first time, the said (paradoxical) properties have been concomitantly fulfilled in "one functioning unit" altogether.
.
• Respect to the special pattern of the strain changes during bending in the particular Resilient Composite System termed ECRLC, this system as an integrated functioning unit with the reticular arrangement and texture has more strain capability (particularly within the elastic limit), energy absorption and load bearing capacities in bending compared to the usual reinforced concrete beams.
.
• Thereby, through employing this applied structure, solving some of the main problems in lightweight concretes application, especially the deadlock of brittle and insecure being of fracture pattern in many of the usual reinforced lightweight concrete structures, is provided; reaching to the high bearing capacities in bending elements (even with low dimensions & weights) is to hand, and getting access to a simple and practical opportunity for "qualitative development of possibilities of using lightweight concretes" (especially with oven-dry densities of < 1350-1400kg/m3 and compressive strengths of <14-17mpa, and even with oven-dry densities of < 800kg/m3) is conceivable.
.
• Naturally, by more studies in the field, these structures and their applications in various fields could be developed more.

♦ An "information-including medicine" is a material that the rendition of its respective physical information via a certain part of the living system termed "parallel body" leads to its corresponding biotic qualities in the living being. Viremedy, homeopathic medicines, and the so-called intentional healing medicines are among such medicines.
♦ Viremedy, as a basic remedy, could raise the vitality of the living creature within the framework of its nature. A rise in vitality means "a general increase in the fulfillment degree of biotic capabilities, such as resistance (resilience) to exogenous and endogenous stresses, in the broad sense". This basic remedy improves the natural regulatory and healing operations.
♦ In this text, allowing for the related facts and experiments, "the Physical Essence" and "the Mechanisms of the Actions" of information-including medicines have been generally explicated by putting forward a working theory. Additionally, "Viremedy", "its Origin", and some relevant topics have been presented. These topics are also included: "Some Controlled Experiments Conducted About any Effects of Viremedy on Vitality"; "Some Points About the Holistic Healing Process Actuated by Viremedy Use"; "Some Application Methods of Viremedy"; "The Possible Use of Other Treatments Together With Viremedy". (What is entitled the "Improved Homeopathy" has been briefly introduced in this synopsis as well.)
♦ Facts, such as the results of the appropriate controlled experiences suitably designed and performed to correctly evaluate the degree of Vitality, are the final judge.

♦ Until a sustainable solution is achieved, effective "Physical Precluding" must be regarded accompanied by other necessary measures like vaccination. The transmission capability of some new, mutant variants of SARS-CoV-2 is substantially high, and an increasing reduction in the effectiveness of using face masks "alone" in precluding the infection with such new variants is alarming. An effective physical precluding by the general public in usual spaces can be accomplished by applying suitable face shields together with expedient masks under the shields. Providing a practical and economical method for physical precluding, "along with widespread distribution of face shields", can also bring about promoting and raising the culture of health and prevention.
♦ It seems the most important function of the mask under the shield is to reduce the amount and especially the "velocity" of the particles that come out through the mouth when speaking, coughing, and sneezing. By "an effective reduction in the velocity of such particles (via using a cover on the mouth under the shield)" and in view of "the function of the shield placed in front of the cover" and "the main role of larger particles in the Covid-19 transmission", any risk of the problematic particles that could eventually come out from around the shield will decrease. About this, conducting a simple, applied experiment about the effectiveness of the concomitant application of the face shield with various face masks that "Only Cover the Mouth Under the Shield", as "the facilitated method of simultaneous use of the face shield and mask by the public", is highly recommended. Likewise, the effectiveness of utilizing various face masks, also including "economical Washable cloth covers", "worn only on the mouth under the shield" requires to be meticulously experienced. (Anyhow, covering only the mouth under the face shield can generally make it easier for many people to use the shield.)

Any effectual battle with the diseases like COVID-19 necessitates "a holistic and integrative attitude".
◆ The effects of Viremedy in raising the vitality of living creatures, with different degrees of development & complexity of the parallel body, have also been demonstrated in controlled studies. For instance, its significant effects in combating the severe infections caused by Herpes simplex type 1 virus, Toxoplasma gondii (RH strain) parasite, and Salmonella typhimurium bacterium have been shown in reproducible, animal studies.
◆ Additionally, also considering the high prevalence of pseudoscience and pseudomedicine in the field of complementary and alternative medicine, a call for reproducing a funded animal study about Viremedy effects in a highly credible center has been made to put an end to the long-standing and hot debates about the effectiveness, as well as the physical essence, of information-including medicines.

♦ The cementitious LFNLC is termed “Elastic Composite, Reinforced Lightweight Concrete (ECRLC)”. The ECRLC provides lightweight beams with substantial strain capability, resilience modulus and toughness in bending, resulting in a considerable increase in bearing capacity while weighing significantly less. The failure mode in low-height and ultra-lightweight beams made of the ECRLC is not compressive and brittle.
♦ This lightweight, flexible composite is a non-monopolistic, versatile and comparatively low-price material. Likewise, the virtues such as resilience and flexibility, workability, lightness, durability, and high formability are important in architecture.
♦ In general, lightweight and integrated construction has a key importance in earthquake resistance. Therefore, the ECRLC can be especially beneficial in earthquake-prone regions.
♦ Considering the flexibility and resilience of this formable system, it can also be used to build non-brittle reinforced ultra-lightweight and insulation sandwich panels, safe and lightweight guards, and shock-resistant structures. Likewise, they are utilizable in some infrastructures and explosion-proof pieces with suitable behavior, resilience, and toughness.
♦ This work presents a practical method for converting a rigid solid into a flexible material with lower density or increasing the elasticity of a flexible material while decreasing the density. Essentially, this method entails creating a porous or porous-like texture in the material, reinforcing appropriately, and providing it with the necessary integrity. (For example, properly dispersing lightweight aggregates all over the reinforced, conjoined matrix can produce a porous-like texture.) By this process, the resilience modulus and toughness in bending rise and the density reduces.
♦ This paper briefly presents the functional and structural characteristics of the LFNLCs and some applications and Reproducible examples of the ECRLC.
♦ The Resilient Composite Systems (R.C.S.) could be counted as "The Methodically Reinforced Nonlinear Porous Materials", also having the high specific modulus of resilience in flexure. They are the compound materials, with some particular structural properties, in which, contrary to the basic geometrical assumption of the flexure theory in Solid Mechanics, the strain changes in the beam height during bending is typically "Nonlinear". The Resilient Composite Systems are made by expediently creating the disseminated suitable hollow pores and/or by distributing the appropriate lightweight aggregates throughout the methodically reinforced, fibered conjoined matrix so that; "the strain changes in the beam height during bending" is typically "nonlinear". Thereby, by applying the mentioned method to make the said composite systems, "considerably increasing the modulus of resilience and the bearing capacity in bending" together with "the significant decrease of the weight" and "the removal of the beam fracture possibility of primary compressive type" have been feasible. Through making these particular consistently functioning systems, the above-stated paradoxical virtues have been concomitantly fulfilled in "one functioning unit" altogether.
♦ The RCS (with the mentioned general structural properties and specific functional criteria) whose cement materials include the "C-S-H (Calcium Silicate hydrate) crystals" have been termed "Elastic Composite, Reinforced Lightweight Concrete (E.C.R.L.C.)".
♦ The RCS and ECRLC as a kind of RCS could be used in many cases. For instance, "Constructing Lightweightly and Consistently", also with practically utilizing the RCS and ECRLC in particular, can be counted as the pivotal and practical tactic to effectively increase the resistance & safety of the constructions against "earthquake" and lateral forces, in the large extent. For example, using some lightweight and insulating, "non-brittle", reinforced sandwich panels or 3D-panels, "with the high modulus of resilience and appropriate behavior against the bending loads and impacts", for construction could be taken into consideration according to the case... [It is worth remarking that; contrary to the ECRLC, the usual reinforced lightweight concretes, especially in the very low densities, are dramatically brittle; they do not have the appropriate behavior and resistance against the high bending loads and impacts.]

• Respect to the special pattern of the strain changes during bending in the particular Resilient Composite System termed ECRLC, this system as an integrated functioning unit with the reticular arrangement and texture has more strain capability (particularly within the elastic limit), energy absorption and load bearing capacities in bending compared to the usual reinforced concrete beams.
.
• Thereby, through employing this applied structure, solving some of the main problems in lightweight concretes application, especially the deadlock of brittle and insecure being of fracture pattern in many of the usual reinforced lightweight concrete structures, is provided; reaching to the high bearing capacities in bending elements (even with low dimensions & weights) is to hand, and getting access to a simple and practical opportunity for "qualitative development of possibilities of using lightweight concretes" (especially with oven-dry densities of < 1350-1400kg/m3 and compressive strengths of <14-17mpa, and even with oven-dry densities of < 800kg/m3) is conceivable.
.
• Naturally, by more studies in the field, these structures and their applications in various fields could be developed more.

♦ An "information-including medicine" is a material that the rendition of its respective physical information via a certain part of the living system termed "parallel body" leads to its corresponding biotic qualities in the living being. Viremedy, homeopathic medicines, and the so-called intentional healing medicines are among such medicines.
♦ Viremedy, as a basic remedy, could raise the vitality of the living creature within the framework of its nature. A rise in vitality means "a general increase in the fulfillment degree of biotic capabilities, such as resistance (resilience) to exogenous and endogenous stresses, in the broad sense". This basic remedy improves the natural regulatory and healing operations.
♦ In this text, allowing for the related facts and experiments, "the Physical Essence" and "the Mechanisms of the Actions" of information-including medicines have been generally explicated by putting forward a working theory. Additionally, "Viremedy", "its Origin", and some relevant topics have been presented. These topics are also included: "Some Controlled Experiments Conducted About any Effects of Viremedy on Vitality"; "Some Points About the Holistic Healing Process Actuated by Viremedy Use"; "Some Application Methods of Viremedy"; "The Possible Use of Other Treatments Together With Viremedy". (What is entitled the "Improved Homeopathy" has been briefly introduced in this synopsis as well.)
♦ Facts, such as the results of the appropriate controlled experiences suitably designed and performed to correctly evaluate the degree of Vitality, are the final judge.
