“The predictive capabilities of today's state-of-the-art models in urban areas need to be improved, validated and tested,” says Grinstein. “Work in this area…
More than 60 years ago, oceanographers predicted that the effect of swimming animals could be profound. Accounting for this effort has proven difficult,…
They will present their concept later this month at the 62nd Annual Meeting of the American Physical Society's (APS) Division of Fluid Dynamics will take place…
Kornev will present his work next week at the 62nd Annual Meeting of the American Physical Society's (APS) Division of Fluid Dynamics will take place from…
“The best anchoring technology out there is an order or magnitude worse than the clam – most are two or three orders worse,” says Hosoi, whose group is…
Experiments show that infected red blood cells are stiffer and stickier than normal ones — in the later stages of the disease, up to 10 times stiffer. They…
Researchers at the University of Illinois have developed a technique for fabricating three-dimensional, single-crystalline silicon structures from thin films…
A team of researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has developed a new modeling methodology for determining the capacity and assessing the…
The researchers have demonstrated the ability to electrically manipulate, at gigahertz rates, the quantum states of electrons trapped on individual defects in…
Now, physicists at the Joint Quantum Institute (JQI), a collaborative organization of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the…
The processor could be a module in a future quantum computer, which theoretically could solve some important problems that are intractable today. The NIST…
More than half of the energy consumed worldwide is wasted, most of it in the form of excess heat. This new technology would allow conversion of waste heat into…
The technology could have applications in the design of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) – nanoscale devices with moving parts – and micro-optomechanical…
The study, which was led by Dr. Chen, is reported in Issue 52 of Science in China (G) because of its significant research value.Many explosive phenomena on the…
Using ESO’s Very Large Telescope and its ability to obtain images as sharp as if taken from space, astronomers have made the first time-lapse movie of a rather…
Not only is this the thinnest material possible, but it also is 10 times stronger than steel and it conducts electricity better than any other known material…
