Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are core components in every mobile phone, television and computer. PCBs can be thought of as acting like a nervous system, forming a network that links the microchips mounted on the board and supplies them with power.
NASA's Curiosity rover is in a position on Mars where scientists and engineers can begin preparing the rover to take its first scoop of soil for analysis.
Andrés J. García, a faculty member at the Georgia Institute of Technology, has been named the 2012 recipient of the Clemson Award for Basic Research from the Society for Biomaterials. This national award is given to an outstanding community member who has demonstrated significant contributions to and understanding of the interaction of materials with tissues within a biological environment.
For the first time, a team of Australian engineers has modelled the microscopic mechanics of a sea urchin's spine, gaining insight into how these unusual creatures withstand impacts in their aquatic environment.
Carbon dioxide could be a useful alternative source of carbon for the chemical industry. It is inexpensive, is supplied in abundance by nature, and would help to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels. In addition, it would significantly improve the carbon footprint of fuels and chemical products.
A MIT research team has examined how materials respond to stresses, including impacts. The research findings can help explain phenomena as separate from the collapse of concrete under unexpected stress and the impacts of corrosion on different metal surfaces.
Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) researchers, Dr. Helge Weman and Professor Bjørn-Ove Fimland have developed a new technique to fabricate semiconductors from graphene.
In a nano-scale study on battery materials which appeared in Nano Letters, a research team headed by Chongmin Wang from the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) of the Department of Energy (DOE), has described the mechanism whereby nickel creates a physical barrier that hinders lithium ion transfer in the electrode, thus decreasing the charging and discharging rates of materials.
A scientist team from NASA’s Dawn has observed that delivery of hydrous materials to Vesta was through clusters of small dust particles which occupied the Solar System during an epoch.
