Fracking and geologic hazards: Does fracking cause earthquakes or sinkholes?
Discover why hydraulic fracturing is not considered a major cause of felt earthquakes.
Money shot: Energy weapons provide cheap, effective missile and drone defense
Here's how breakthroughs in solid-state fiber lasers are reshaping air defense architectures and defensive costs.
Designing medical devices that stay reliable — even when connectivity drops
Medical device architectures are being designed to operate without reliable network connectivity. In clinical and field settings, dependence on continuous cloud access can delay diagnostics or interrupt monitoring, particularly in time-sensitive applications.
Scientists use bacteria to transform trash into cosmetic ingredients
This finding promises to potentially help create a more sustainable path to manufacturing medium-chain carboxylic acids (MCCAs), which is a family of molecules used in the making of cosmetics, cleaning products, agricultural feed, antimicrobials and nutritional supplements.
“Click-clotting” halts bleeding in seconds and could reshape emergency care
The new approach, dubbed "click clotting," unites red blood cell surface proteins via a chemical reaction, thus producing a biocompatible clot that is reportedly 13 times more fracture resistant and four times more adhesive than natural blood clots.
Engineers create cooling system to preserve donor lungs
The new thoracic organ-recovery cooler reportedly controls temperature, pressure and humidity within a sealed, sterile environment. This design reportedly better preserves organs.
Beer waste finds new life as eco-friendly paper
According to the researchers, the brewer's spent grain features a composition rich in cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin — which also happen to be key components for papermaking.
Depleted oil fields repurposed for hydrogen supply
The commercialization and global deployment of subsurface hydrogen production from depleted oil and gas reservoirs advances in a collaborative effort involving Eclipse Energy and Wood.
Safeguard in-cab electronics with ROLEC’s profiCASE diecast HMI enclosures
The enclosures offer the ideal protection for today’s new generation of in-cab touch screen systems in tractors and off-highway construction vehicles.
High-efficiency motor technologies for industrial decarbonization initiatives
For the cold truth of the matter, and that’s the only thing that’s cold about this problem, climate change isn’t letting up.
Fruit wash eliminates 94% of pesticides, keeps grapes fresh for 15 days at room temperature
The new solution, developed by a team from the University of British Columbia (UBC), reportedly removes the majority of surface chemicals and helps fruit stay fresh for longer.
100% recyclable construction slabs turn building rubble into high-strength alternative materials
This alternative to existing construction materials, developed through the SARCOS project, takes debris from demolished buildings and turns it into high-quality floor slabs that are equally as strong as standard ones.
Improving operational visibility through integrated power and process monitoring
Electrical infrastructure is becoming more complex due to renewable integration, decentralized generation, high-speed automation systems and growing use of power electronics.

Why 5 industrial sectors are switching to servo worm gearheads for high-precision motion
This paper highlights five industrial sectors where these capabilities provide measurable machine-level advantages and explains how engineers can confidently specify a servo worm gearhead without sacrificing performance or lifecycle cost.
Apple waste could fuel vehicles, nourish livestock
Apple pomace represents roughly 25% to 30% of processed apples and is typically treated as waste even though it possesses rich carbohydrate content and strong potential for bioconversion.
Bioengineered chewing gum targets cancer-linked oral microbes without harming beneficial bacteria
Researchers observed levels of three microbes associated with cancer — including human papilloma virus, or HPV, and two species of bacteria, Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg) and Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn) — in oral samples taken from HNSCC patients.
