Using 3D technology and interdisciplinary expertise, a research team has explored Buddhist temples in the remote Dolpo region of Nepal and digitized them for posterity In the high-altitude and extremely remote region of Dolpo in north-west Nepal, there are numerous Buddhist temples whose history dates back to the 11th century. The structures are threatened by earthquakes, landslides and planned infrastructure projects such as the Chinese Belt and Road Initiative. There is also a lack of financial resources for long-term maintenance….
The world's longest superconducting cable renders substation obsolete
The 3D-printing technology, or additive manufacturing as it is often called, has long made the step out of scientific research laboratories into industrial…
This new ultra-thin oxide semiconductors was created by a team of scientists, led by Professor Zonghoon Lee of Materials Science and Engineering at UNIST. In…
Machines and devices used in modern industry are required to withstand harsh conditions. When the environmental temperature changes, the volume of the…
TPedge modules are edge-sealed, double-glass PV modules, similar in construction to insulating glass windows. The solar cells are fixed in the gas-filled space…
Nature does amazing things with limited design materials. Grass, for example, can support its own weight, resist strong wind loads, and recover after being…

The material, called a near-perfect broadband absorber, absorbs more than 87 percent of near-infrared light (1,200 to 2,200 nanometer wavelengths), with 98…
Semiconductors lie at the heart of many of the electronic devices that govern our daily lives. The proper functioning of semiconductor devices relies on their…
Large vessels like e.g. containter vessel but also cruise ships need water, so called ballast water to gain stability and balance their mass.
Metals which can be bent as gum pave the way for new industrial applications for example in the aerospace industry. These so-called gum metals exist but the…
“We are the first in the world to present a logic circuit, in this case a transistor, that is controlled by a heat signal instead of an electrical signal,”…
As of today, the fabrication of larger structures or larger batches of optical elements via 2PP takes too much time for an industrial scale production: 3D…
