Hydrologic simulation models that inform policy decisions are difficult to interpret Posted: 11 Oct 2019 01:53 PM PDT Hydrologic models that simulate and predict water flow are used to estimate how natural systems respond to different scenarios such as changes in climate, land use, and soil management. The output from these models can inform policy and regulatory decisions regarding water and land management practices. Numerical models have become increasingly easy to employ with advances in computer technology and software with graphical user interface (GUI). While these technologies make the models more accessible, problems can arise if they are used by inexperienced modelers. |
'Electroadhesive' stamp picks up and puts down microscopic structures Posted: 11 Oct 2019 11:46 AM PDT New technique could enable assembly of circuit boards and displays with more minute components. |
New soft actuators could make soft robots less bulky Posted: 11 Oct 2019 11:20 AM PDT Engineers have developed a way to build soft robots that are compact, portable and multifunctional. The advance was made possible by creating soft, tubular actuators whose movements are electrically controlled, making them easy to integrate with small electronic components. As a proof of concept, engineers used the new actuators to build an untethered, battery-powered, walking soft robot and a soft gripper. |
Controlling superconducting regions within an exotic metal Posted: 11 Oct 2019 04:47 AM PDT Researchers have created a metallic microdevice in which they can define and tune patterns of superconductivity. Their discovery holds great promise for quantum technologies of the future. |
Combination of techniques could improve security for IoT devices Posted: 10 Oct 2019 01:48 PM PDT A multi-pronged data analysis approach that can strengthen the security of Internet of Things (IoT) devices -- such as smart TVs, home video cameras and baby monitors -- against current risks and threats has been created. |
