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 research is focused on producing a silver-diamond thermal shim of unprecedented thinness – 250 microns or less. The ratio of silver to diamond in the…
Many materials, when observed over a sufficiently long period of time, show changes in their mechanical properties. The exact course of these developments…
University of Central Florida Associate Professor Lei Zhai and postdoctoral associate Jianhua Zou have engineered the world's lightest carbon material in such…
Now a team led by Jan Schroers, a materials scientist at Yale University, has shown that some recently developed bulk metallic glasses (BMGs)-metal alloys that…
“The technology should be useful in a wide range of machineries other than automobile engines,” says Dr. Liu, a professor in the Department of Chemistry and an…
There was a time when a laptop could weigh 10 pounds and still sell—a time when a cell phone was larger than a pocket—and a time when an iPod only played music.
A crystal consisting not of atoms but exotic swirling magnetic entities, called skyrmions, has been identified at near room-temperature by Yoshinori Tokura of…
One of the causes of the problem is short coherence time of a quantum bit in the host material. Researchers have engineered phosphorus-doped silicon to be…
Professor Maeno of Kyoto University (Kyoto, Japan) and Assistant Professor Budakian of University of Illinois (Urbana-Champaign, IllinoisCUSA) were the…
Understanding the dynamic behaviors of dopant atoms in Si NWs is the key to realize low-power and high-speed transistors using Si NWs. The segregation behavior…
CNT thin-film transistors are expected to enable the fabrication of high-performance, flexible and transparent devices using relatively simple techniques….
A product of ONR's TechSolutions program, SSL is one of several rapid-response technologies created using recommendations and suggestions from Navy and Marine…
Prior to the production of prototypes, adhesive tests have hitherto only been undertaken on coupon specimens. Researchers at Fraunhofer IWES, together with…
The new versions of the Simatic NET CP 341-1 Advanced and Simatic NET CP 443-1 Advanced communications processors contain a firewall as well as a VPN function…
The readers of the Simatic RF200 system are designed as solutions for the low to mid-performance range and expand Siemens' existing RFID offering. The two…
The reality of making solar panels with existing technology, however, is much different, involving use of potentially toxic substances and lots of energy. That…
