3D Printed Models of Dog Skulls to Help Save Animals

University of Queensland (UQ) vets can now use 3D printed models of dog skulls to help save animals and educate veterinary students in the future. Machine learning methods have been used by researchers to precisely predict the mechanical characteristics of metal-organic frameworks, or MOFs, which can be used for storing toxic gases, or extracting water from the air in the desert, or powering hydrogen-based cars.

Researchers Demonstrate a Transformative Step to Boost the Energy Density of Lithium-Ion Batteries

According to a new study, soldiers who carry batteries weighing 15 to 25 pounds could now carry batteries that weigh significantly less but come with the same level of energy and offer better safety. Now, in the recent issue of the journal Nature, a research team at the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command’s Army Research Laboratory—the Army’s corporate research laboratory called ARL—and the University of Maryland (UMD) showed a revolutionary step in battery technology with the detection of a novel cathode chemistry.

The Current State of the Global Semiconductor Market

The global semiconductor market has entered an exciting period. Demand for chip technology is both driving the industry as well as hindering it, with current chip shortages predicted to last for some time. Current trends will likely shape the future of the industry, which is set to continue to show

How are Graphene Batteries Made?

The primary distinction between graphene-based batteries and solid-state batteries lies in the composition of either electrode. Although the cathode is commonly changed, carbon allotropes can also be employed in fabricating anodes.

What Role Will The IoT Play In The Electric Vehicle Industry?

In recent years, the IoT is rapidly being introduced into almost all sectors, but it has particular importance in the EV industry.
