Texas A&M researchers use food-grade wax and essential oils to protect vegetables from pathogens. Dr. Mustafa Akbulut, a chemical engineering professor, has collaborated with horticultural…
Space Solar Power Project completes First in-space Trip with Triumphs and Lessons
A 10-month expedition proved three aspects of the proposal to send solar power from space to Earth. Caltech’s orbit Solar Power Demonstrator (SSPD-1) went into…
Mechanical Resonance – tendency of a mechanical system
Mechanical resonance is the tendency of a mechanical system to respond with greater amplitude when the frequency of its oscillations is closer to the system’s…
Sympathetic Resonance
Sympathetic resonance, also known as sympathetic vibration, is a harmonic phenomenon in which a passive string or vibratory body responds to external vibrations that are…
Cycloalkyne – in organic chemistry
A cycloalkyne is a cyclic counterpart of an alkyne (−C≡C−). A cycloalkyne is a closed ring of carbon atoms with one or more triple bonds.…
Weedy Rice gains Competitive Advantage from its Wild Companions
