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….
Managing a BSR is challenging due to organisational differences in operations priorities and the challenge is salient in container terminal management where…
In recent decades bioahesives, tissue sealants and hemostatic agents became the favored products to control bleeding and promote tissue healing after surgery….
A new Department of Energy research facility could help bring the U.S. closer to generating power from the winds and waters along America's coasts and help…
The report found that CSP with a six-hour storage capacity can lower peak net loads when the sun isn’t shining, enough to add $35.80 per megawatt hour to the…
But to compete with energy from fossil fuels, photovoltaic devices must convert sunlight to electricity with a certain measure of efficiency. For polymer-based…
Silicon carbide crystals consist of a regular lattice formed by silicon and carbon atoms. At present, these semiconductors are extensively used in micro and…
Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) is routinely employed by physicists and chemists to capture atomic-scale images of molecules on surfaces. Now, an…
“The use of paper industry waste could bring about economic and environmental benefits as it means that material considered as waste can be reused as raw…
The extension will help the project perform at optimal levels of efficiency and availability for years to come. Located on approximately 16,000 acres, the 161…
Growth of new materials is the cornerstone of materials science – a highly inter-disciplinary field of science that touches every aspect of our lives from…
A research group partly financed by the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) is tackling this task.Discovering the perfect composition of Portland cement,…
‘I got the idea at home when I was sorting rubbish. I thought it should be possible to do it automatically with artificial intelligence,’ says Claes…
To make the wires, researchers start with a thin tube made of an extremely elastic polymer and then fill the tube with a liquid metal alloy of gallium and…
The method is also the first of its kind to be integrated with a building simulation tool. Factoring in the different ways in which buildings are used and the…
University of Illinois researchers developed mats of metal oxide nanofibers that scrub sulfur from petroleum-based fuels much more effectively than traditional…
