Drawing inspiration from the venous ears of jackrabbits and elephants, Drexel University researchers have come up with a new approach to passive heating and cooling that could one day make buildings more energy efficient. Their […]
New smart sensors can help detect dangerous internal failures in lithium-ion batteries before they escalate into fires or explosions, say researchers from the University of Surrey. Lithium-ion batteries are at the heart of the global […]
The slimy, segmented, bottom-dwelling California blackworm is about as unappealing as it gets—but get a few dozen or thousand together, and they form a massive, entangled blob that seems to take on a life of […]
Researchers have designed a working prototype of a lithium metal battery equipped with a built-in fire extinguisher, which is activated if the battery overheats.This post was originally published on this site
Researchers at The University of Osaka have developed a novel framework for measuring occupancy in open-plan offices with unprecedented precision. This innovative system uses computer vision and AI to analyze occupancy at a micro-scale level, […]
Terahertz frequencies above 100 GHz offer extremely wide bandwidths suitable for next-generation wireless communications, and research toward their practical use is ongoing worldwide. In particular, the 150 GHz and 300 GHz bands are actively being […]
Grab a coffee and your car is fully charged—this is how many people envision the future of mobility. But today’s batteries still fall short of this ideal. While modern lithium–ion batteries can charge from 20% […]
Modern manufacturing operates in complex environments where traditional management approaches are no longer enough. This highlights the need for real-time, dynamic and self-adaptive management strategies. Manufacturing data analytics (MDA) has emerged as a powerful solution […]
A research team led by the Institute of Materials Science of Barcelona (ICMAB-CSIC) has demonstrated a new induction-based mechanism that enables partial self-recharging in batteries, using a symmetric iron-based configuration as a proof of concept. […]
The tallest steel-framed building ever tested on an earthquake simulator started moving slowly, swaying and twisting. The 10-story, 100-foot structure was experiencing simulations of real earthquakes, including the 6.9 magnitude, 1989 Loma Prieta temblor, as […]
