From sorting objects in a warehouse to navigating furniture while vacuuming, robots today use sensors, software control systems, and moving parts to perform tasks. The harder the task or more complex the environment, the more […]
Hydrogen is a promising fuel for developing sustainable industrial processes, but its use is hindered by hydrogen embrittlement—a phenomenon that weakens metals and can cause sudden failure. Now, researchers from Japan have provided the first […]
In the global race to decarbonize, hydrogen stands out as one of the most promising clean fuels. But despite its potential to power industries and transportation without emitting carbon, producing hydrogen sustainably in a water […]
An EPFL study shows red light, like blue, causes stronger glare than white, challenging the century-old and globally used function that describes how the human eye responds to different light wavelengths. The findings have implications […]
A University of Houston scientist is helping reveal the world’s weakest bridges—and how to fix them before it’s too late. In a study of 744 bridges across the globe, published in Nature Communications, Pietro Milillo […]
A perovskite solar cell boasting over three times the lifespan of conventional devices has been developed, thanks to a novel solid-state additive that replaces traditional liquid components known to compromise stability.This post was originally published […]
A defect in a semiconductor chip may be smaller than a human hair but can create big problems in your everyday life, from crippling your car’s steering to making your laptop more susceptible to hackers.This […]
A research team affiliated with UNIST has unveiled a new type of artificial muscle that can seamlessly transition from soft and flexible to rigid and strong—much like rubber transforming into steel. When contracting, this innovative […]
Waiting until water damage occurs is expensive. But it also doesn’t make financial sense to replace pipes too early. We looked into the best time to do it.This post was originally published on this site
A new open-source tool is reshaping how engineers design multi-material objects. Charles Wade, a Ph.D. student in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Colorado Boulder, has created a design system software package […]
