Scientists in Britain have developed a new energy-harvesting device that will make it possible for wearable devices to be made entirely of recycled waste materials and powered by human movement.
The prototype wrist device was made from discarded paper wipes and plastic cups and can transmit Morse code. Scientists at the University of Surrey's Advanced Technology Institute said they're n

Do two promising structural materials corrode at very high temperatures when in contact with "liquid metal fuel breeders" in fusion reactors? Researchers of Tokyo Tech, YNU and QST now have the answer. This high-temperature compatibility of reactor structural materials with the liquid breeder-a lining around the reactor core that absorbs and traps the high energy neutrons produced in the plasma

As hard as diamond and as flexible as plastic, highly sought-after diamond nanothreads would be poised to revolutionize our world-if they weren't so difficult to make.
Recently, a team of scientists led by Carnegie's Samuel Dunning and Timothy Strobel developed an original technique that predicts and guides the ordered creation of strong, yet flexible, diamond nanothreads, surmounting seve

Noah rode out his flood in an ark. Winnie-the-Pooh had an upside-down umbrella. Fire ants (Solenopsis invicta), meanwhile, form floating rafts made up of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of individual insects.
A new study by engineers at the University of Colorado Boulder lays out the simple physics-based rules that govern how these ant rafts morph over time: shrinking, expanding or

Basra, Iraq (AFP) March 4, 2022
In the oilfields of southern Iraq, billions of cubic feet of gas literally go up in smoke, burnt off on flare stacks for want of the infrastructure to capture and process it.
The flares produce vast amounts of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, contributing to global warming without any economic or social benefit.
Analysts say the waste is particularly egregious, as Iraq is a sig

Scientists who study human-robot interaction often focus on understanding human intentions from a robot's perspective, so the robot learns to cooperate with people more effectively. But human-robot interaction is a two-way street, and the human also needs to learn how the robot behaves.
Thanks to decades of cognitive science and educational psychology research, scientists have a pretty goo
