A research team led by professor Wonyoung Lee of the School of Mechanical Engineering at Sungkyunkwan University (SKKU) has developed a technology that addresses interfacial contact resistance, a key factor limiting the performance ...

Thanks to the exponential rise of AI, the rapid construction of large, gigawatt-gobbling data centers across the country has stoked concerns about how the power grid will hold up under this additional strain.

Solar panels that can be coated onto thin, flexible surfaces could one day be made the way newspapers are printed, at room temperature and without the toxic chemicals the process has relied on, claim researchers from the ...

When trying to figure out a better design for a bacteria-powered biobattery, Binghamton University researchers found inspiration in nature—specifically, the insides of our small intestines.

The standard data migration tools offered by major Android manufacturers such as Samsung, Google and Xiaomi pose security risks, as researchers from the Institute of Information Security at Graz University of Technology (TU ...

Woven textiles can do more than provide softness and strength. Their microscopic arrangement of yarns can also influence how sound travels through a material. However, finding suitable over-and-under yarn patterns is a difficult ...

Structure dictates function. Scientists are increasingly using artificial intelligence (AI) to design the arrangement of atoms in new materials with desired properties. Now, researchers at the Institute of Industrial Science, ...

Timothy Wong didn't suspect it at the time, but his dives off the coast of Rockport and the hours he spent studying the wheels and gears of robotics were leading to one mission: figuring out a way to get unwanted sea matter ...

Samantha Gateman and her team at Western University use highly localized electrochemical techniques to see how corrosion starts and evolves at the microscopic level.

Researchers have developed two new organic semiconductor materials using a light-driven chemical reaction. The paper is published in Chemistry—A European Journal.

Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh Swanson School of Engineering have partnered with Pittsburgh startup Sensible Photonics, co-founded by Pitt professor Paul Ohodnicki, to develop a fiber-optic ultrasonic acoustic-sensing ...

What does it take for an autonomous robot to be faster around a course than human drone pilots? At these dizzying speeds, humans need lightning-fast reflexes. Researchers at Delft University of Technology (the Netherlands) ...
