In industrial environments, especially in power stations and the oil and gas area, leaks in pipe systems, valves and at critical transfer points have to be identified as quickly as possible. This is e...
Information Technology |With thousands of stinging cells that can emit deadly venom from tentacles that can reach ten feet in length, the 50 or so species of box jellyfish have long been of interest to scientists and to the ...
Life Sciences |The technology could have applications in the design of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) – nanoscale devices with moving parts – and micro-optomechanical systems (MOMS) which combine moving part...
Physics and Astronomy |A species of common skate is to become the first marine fish species to be driven to extinction by commercial fishing, due to an error of species classification 80 years ago, reveals research publishe...
Ecology, The Environment and Conservation |However, researchers wanting to use these microfluidic devices to analyze complex solutions containing particulates or other contaminating materials often find that the first part of the process isn...
Life Sciences |This compact drive is particularly suitable for the energy-efficient operation of flow machines in building automation, the process industry and in the water management industry. The IP55 degree of pr...
