| Seashell-inspired shield protects materials in hostile environments Posted: 03 May 2022 05:16 PM PDT An ecological protective coating, stronger yet less expensive than potentially dangerous beryllium shielding, is baked of alternating layers of sugar and silica. The simple result, which mimics the structure of a seashell, should lower costs for pulsed power machines and space satellites. |
| Study develops framework for forecasting contribution of snowpack to flood risk during winter storms Posted: 03 May 2022 04:01 PM PDT A new study provides a framework for a snowpack decision support tool that could help water managers prepare for potential flooding during rain-on-snow events, using hourly data from existing snow monitoring stations. |
| Physicists develop ideal testing conditions of solar cells for space applications Posted: 03 May 2022 11:14 AM PDT Researchers have described the optimal conditions for testing perovskite solar cells for space. |
| Fluorescent probe for bad cooking oil in the portable platform Posted: 03 May 2022 11:13 AM PDT A research team develops a fluorescent molecular sensor for detecting bad cooking oils. The novel technology enables anyone to easily measure the cooked time for all kinds of cooking oils. |
| Dual membrane offers hope for long-term energy storage Posted: 03 May 2022 11:13 AM PDT A new approach to battery design could provide the key to low-cost, long-term energy storage, according to researchers. |
| Lost value of landfilled plastic in US Posted: 03 May 2022 11:13 AM PDT With mountains of plastic waste piling up in landfills and scientists estimating that there will be more plastics by weight than fish in the ocean by 2050, the growing environmental challenge presented to the world by plastics is well understood. What is less well understood by the scientific community is the lost energy opportunity. In short, plastic waste is also energy wasted. |
| Sensor makes strides in detecting infection indicators Posted: 02 May 2022 09:04 AM PDT Bioengineers have designed a wearable sensor that can detect two key biomarkers of infection in human sweat, a significant step toward making it possible for users to receive early warnings of infections such as COVID-19 and influenza. |
| Sound -- a new tool to control enzymatic reactions Posted: 02 May 2022 06:48 AM PDT Unhackneyed compartmentalization generated by audible sound allows the enzyme reactions to be controlled spatiotemporally. |
| Posted: 29 Apr 2022 11:49 AM PDT Using a new experimental method, scientists have transferred the mirror-image forms of chiral molecules into different rotational states more efficiently than ever before. This opens doors to a deeper understanding and manipulability of this common type of molecule for future applications. |
