More durable metals for fusion power reactors

Energy-daily.com 

Boston MA (SPX) Aug 20, 2024 - For many decades, nuclear fusion power has been viewed as the ultimate energy source. A fusion power plant could generate carbon-free energy at a scale needed to address climate change. And it could be fueled by deuterium recovered from an essentially endless source - seawater.

Decades of work and billions of dollars in research funding have yielded many advances, but challenges remain. To Ju Li, the TEPCO Professor in Nuclear Science and Engineering and a professor... Читать дальше...

MIT engineers design tiny batteries for powering cell-sized robots

Spacedaily.com 

Boston MA (SPX) Aug 16, 2024 - A tiny battery designed by MIT engineers could enable the deployment of cell-sized, autonomous robots for drug delivery within in the human body, as well as other applications such as locating leaks in gas pipelines.

The new battery, which is 0.1 millimeters long and 0.002 millimeters thick - roughly the thickness of a human hair - can capture oxygen from air and use it to oxidize zinc, creating a current of up to 1 volt. That is enough to power a small circuit, sensor, or actuator, the researchers showed. Читать дальше...

Shape-shifting WVU robot inspired by insect swarms and tree roots is teaching itself to mark contamination zones

Spacedaily.com 

Morgantown, WV (SPX) Aug 22, 2024 - West Virginia University roboticists are working on an alternative path to robot autonomy in Loopy, a "multicellular robot" composed of a ring of individual interconnected robot cells.

Supported by a National Science Foundation award, the WVU team will test Loopy's ability to "co-design" itself, determining its own shape with limited support from human engineers. With no direct programming of its behaviors, they believe Loopy can learn to use its body to mark the boundary of a contaminated area... Читать дальше...
