This summer’s Western heat waves raise the specter of recent years’ rotating power outages and record-breaking electricity demand in the region. If utilities across the area expanded current schemes to share electricity, they could cut […]
Researchers at the School of Engineering of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) have developed an eco-friendly refrigeration device with record-breaking cooling performance, setting the stage for transforming industries reliant on cooling […]
The blades of propellers and wind turbines are designed based on aerodynamics principles that were first described mathematically more than a century ago. But engineers have long realized that these formulas don’t work in every […]
Imagine if Australian cities became major producers of clean energy, rather than relying on far-flung solar and wind farms.This post was originally published on this site
Porous media play a critical role in various industrial fields due to their complex pore networks and considerable specific surface areas. The transport and reaction phenomena within porous media are key factors influencing fundamental parameters […]
An eco-friendly technology inspired by plant and animal mechanisms has been developed in South Korea for the first time. The portable moisture-harvesting system collects moisture from the air, purifies it, and produces drinkable water. This […]
The increase in high-rise and densely populated urban development has heightened the demand for safety and resilience solutions against emergencies, such as fires. The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) has created advanced technological solutions to […]
The widespread adoption of electric vehicles greatly relies on the development of robust and fast-charging battery technologies that can support their continuous operation for long periods of time. One proposed energy storage solution to improve […]
Cities around the globe are experiencing increased flooding due to the compounding effects of stronger storms in a warming climate and urban growth. New research from the University of California, Irvine suggests that urban form, […]
Chances are you’ve never considered the act of breathing. Our lungs’ gentle rise and fall is autonomic, pulling air in and nourishing our body with oxygen before expelling wastes like carbon dioxide (CO2).This post was […]
