A research team led by Waterloo Engineering has developed a faster, cheaper way to create large-scale, three-dimensional (3D) computer models of urban areas, technology that could impact fields including urban planning, architectural design and filmmaking.This […]
Nazarbayev University’s School of Engineering and Digital Sciences (NU SEDS) researchers have published a first-of-its-kind critical review of review articles on phase change materials (PCMs) for thermal energy storage in buildings. The article was featured […]
Scientists from Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M) and Harvard University have experimentally demonstrated that it is possible to reprogram the mechanical and structural behavior of innovative artificial materials with magnetic properties, known as metamaterials, […]
Flexible devices play a central role in next-generation technologies, from health monitoring to soft robotics. However, conventional manufacturing methods such as casting and lithography often fall short—they are costly, time-consuming, and struggle with design complexity […]
Researchers at the University of Stuttgart have used microbial processes to produce environmentally friendly bio-concrete from urine as part of a “wastewater-bio-concrete-fertilizer” value chain. With the project extension granted by the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Science, […]
Researchers from ETH Zurich have carried out the largest field study to date, to find out whether heat pumps are running efficiently. When looked at in operation, it turns out that these units are often […]
Origami—the art of paper folding that originated in Japan centuries ago—could open a new frontier in innovative materials, thanks to research led at the University of Michigan.This post was originally published on this site
An increasing amount of electronic waste is not being properly disposed of but is often discarded together with plastic waste, for example. If the batteries in these products are damaged, they can cause fires at […]
Whether designing a window in an airliner or a cable conduit for an engine, manufacturers devote a lot of effort to reinforcing openings for structural integrity. But the reinforcement is rarely perfect and often creates […]
Humans’ relationships with plants is largely utilitarian, serving our needs. We generally either eat them or make things out of them.This post was originally published on this site
