US and Japanese scientists conduct joint composites study
May 07, 2019 (SPX)
The JMoD chose Umezawa for the ESEP based on his experience as a stress analysist of polymer matrix composite materials. Also, Umezawa has been heavily involved...
Organ bioprinting gets a breath of fresh air
May 07, 2019 (SPX)
The new innovation allows scientists to create exquisitely entangled vascular networks that mimic the body's natural passageways for blood, air, lymph and other...
Promising material could lead to faster, cheaper computer memory
May 07, 2019 (SPX)
The scientists are studying bismuth ferrite, commonly abbreviated as BFO, a material that has the potential to store information much more efficiently than is c...
Recognising sustainable behaviour in orbit
May 07, 2019 (ESA)
We increasingly rely on satellites for every-day activities like navigation, weather forecasting and telecommunications, and any loss of these space-based servi...
New holographic technique opens the way for quantum computation
May 06, 2019 (SPX)
Phase specifies the position of a point within the wave cycle and correlates to depth of information, meaning that recording the phase of light scattered by an ...
Storage beyond the cloud
May 02, 2019 (SPX)
As the data boom continues to boom, more and more information gets filed in less and less space. Even the cloud - whose name promises opaque, endless space - wi...
New polymer films conduct heat instead of trapping it
May 01, 2019 (SPX)
Now MIT engineers have flipped the picture of the standard polymer insulator, by fabricating thin polymer films that conduct heat - an ability normally associat...
Flexible circuits for 3D printing
May 01, 2019 (SPX)
This technology can enable new applications such as printable light-emitting diodes, solar cells or tools with integrated circuits, as Tomke Glier from the Univ...
Researchers discover surprising quantum effect in hard disk drive material
May 01, 2019 (SPX)
Sometimes scientific discoveries can be found along well-trodden paths. That proved the case for a cobalt-iron alloy material commonly found in hard disk drives...
Making glass more clear
May 01, 2019 (SPX)
Now a multi-institutional team including Northwestern University, North Dakota State University and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) ha...

Researchers from the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences transmitted a recording of Martin's classic "Volare" wirelessly via a se...
Ice-proof coating for big structures relies on a 'beautiful demonstration of mechanics'
May 01, 2019 (SPX)
The spray-on coatings, developed at the University of Michigan, cause ice to fall away from structures--regardless of their size--with just the force of a light...
Coffee machine helped physicists to make ion traps more efficient
May 01, 2019 (SPX)
Ion traps can localize and restrain individual charged particles in a confined space for subsequent manipulations with these particles, such as displacing or ev...
Squid skin inspires creation of next-generation space blanket
May 01, 2019 (SPX)
