Snake-like robots represent the future of rescue. Their slender bodies allow them to navigate narrow spaces, uneven terrain, and water surfaces, entering places that would be hazardous for humans. This could potentially save lives in […]
University of Houston professor of Mechanical Engineering Technology Weihang Zhu is spearheading an effort to redefine offshore safety, releasing a new roadmap designed to identify and close critical gaps in international crane operations. While structural […]
Cement production is responsible for around 8% of global carbon dioxide emissions, primarily due to the production of Portland cement. In response to this environmental challenge, geopolymers—materials obtained through the alkaline activation of natural aluminosilicates—have […]
A research team from Skoltech (part of the VEB.RF group) and other scientific organizations in Russia and India has conducted a systematic study of the laser powder bed fusion (PBF-LB) process for aluminum bronze. This […]
The combination of extreme weather conditions, like atmospheric rivers, and aging infrastructure is putting increasing pressures on Canadian highways, bridges and tunnels—many of which are almost 100 years old. UBC Okanagan researchers caution that these […]
A recent publication from IMDEA Materials Institute and the Technical University of Madrid (UPM) presents a major step forward in bringing real-time simulation capabilities to composite manufacturing processes. By addressing key limitations of current deep […]
Converting methane, the primary component of natural gas, into higher alkanes and hydrogen, could be highly advantageous. Alkanes, such as propane and butane, are easier to transport than methane and are used in a wider […]
Published in Nature Communications, researchers from St. Olaf College and Syracuse University built a computer made entirely of mechanical components that can perform simple computations without electricity or batteries.This post was originally published on this […]
A KAIST research team has developed quadrupedal robot technology that not only enables walking by estimating terrain without visual information, but also allows the robot to perceive its surroundings through cameras and LiDAR sensors and […]
A breakthrough in interface engineering clears the path for sustainable, high-power hydrogen energy. As the world races toward a hydrogen-based society, the quest for a truly green fuel cell has faced a persistent material hurdle. […]
