Conceptual Seismic Design of Cable Supported Bridge and Its Components The sort of cable supported bridge that needs to be created and its ideal location are the first steps in the concept design of a…
Soil Stabilization Methods With Different Materials (cement, bitumen, lime, chemical stabilization, geotextile, grouting, etc.) By blending and combining various components, soil stabilization is a technique for enhancing the qualities of soil. Following are the various soil stabilization methods and…
Quantum Computing is Used by Engineers to Create a Transparent Window Coating that Blocks Heat and Conserves Energy Around 15% of the energy used worldwide is for cooling. Ordinary clear windows let the sun heat up interior rooms, which must subsequently be cooled…
Engineers Create a Metal Foam that Resembles Bone and can be “Healed” at Room Temperature Metal is a durable material that has been used by humans for six thousands of years since it takes a lot of energy to harm it.…
Water-based Neural Network Computing A team of Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) researchers created an ionic circuit with hundreds of ionic transistors and…
A New Type of Silicon could Transform the Semiconductor Industry A team of Northeastern University mechanical engineers was able to synthesize highly dense, ultra-narrow silicon nanowires that could revolutionize the semiconductor industry after a 10-year…
The Early-Stage Corrosion of Concrete Can Be Spotted Using a New Method An X-ray, CT scan, or MRI will be performed as soon as possible after a fall, on-field collision, or other severe injury to see if…
Wrap a Li-Ion Battery Electrode Material Around a Carbon Nanotube’s Inner Space By introducing red phosphorus with a very high capacity into the inner space of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with a tubular structure, researchers at the Toyohashi…
Off-grid Locations could Benefit from Passive Cooling Systems A new passive cooling system relies on evaporation and radiation and requires no electricity. The device can provide up to about 19 degrees Fahrenheit (9.3…
Living Photovoltaics are Possible thanks to Nanotubes Scientists at EPFL have gotten bacteria to spontaneously take up fluorescent carbon nanotubes for the first time. The breakthrough unlocks new biotechnology applications for prokaryotes,…
Detecting Threats from Wear and Tear in Big Structures with Nanotube-Embedded Coating At Rice University, a strain-sensing smart skin was created that can monitor and identify damage to big structures using extremely microscopic structures called carbon nanotubes.…
Bioinspired Whisker Arrays can Function as Antennae to Find the Sources of Flow Disturbances in the Air or Under Water Recent research by Professor Christoph Bruecker and his team at City University of London has shown that artificial whiskers, constructed as models of sea lion…
