  • Coating, drone technology promises to prevent ice accumulation on wind turbine blades

    The project, dubbed TURBO: Temporary coating by means of drones, attempts to safeguard wind turbine blades against the formation of ice.

  • New Cloud-based app for CNC machining optimization launched

    AMRC has introduced its Essential Optimization — a web application that prevents chatter vibrations and offers engineers a simple-to-use solution to select stable spindle speeds and feed rates.

  • University of Waterloo develops new digital simulation tool for gear machining

    New software, dubbed ShapePro, simulates gear cutting by predicting the chip geometry and cutting mechanics in three gear machining processes including shaping, hobbing and power skiving.

  • Water heating with a dual-source solar heat pump

    A highly efficient solar-air dual-source heat pump for water heating applications enables forced convection during partial sunshine and diffuse light conditions.

  • FPT Industrial lights up POWERGEN International 2024 with its generation of power

    The Iveco Group brand will showcase its full range of Tier 3 and Tier 4 Final/Stage V, 3.4 liter to 16 liter engines for power generation.

  • New laser-assisted machining technique developed to manufacture hard-to-machine materials

    The team used a hybrid cutting process wherein a focused laser beam was employed to heat local areas of the work piece and remove softened material from the ductile region.

  • New digital process controller from Emerson

    According to the company, the DPC2K can be retrofitted to Fisher Wizard pneumatic controllers, and to pneumatic controllers from other manufacturers.

  • AI to help scientists see ‘ultra-emission’ methane plumes from space

    The University of Oxford team developed a new machine learning-powered tool that identifies methane plumes via narrow hyperspectral bands of satellite imaging data.

  • New report calls for an overhaul of oil and gas sector

    The report suggests that oil-and gas-associated greenhouse emissions, attributed to the burning of fossil fuels such as oil, will need to be reduced by 60% to meet climate goals.

  • A US roadmap for CO2 removal

    Prospects for achieving a net-zero greenhouse gas economy by 2050 in the U.S. are analyzed to help inform action and decision making at the state and local levels.

  • Fresh water supplied from the air

    The internet of things-enabled system sustainably supplies 100 gal/day of fresh water using renewable water from air technology.

  • Hot melts for automated packaging in e-commerce

    Use of the hot-melt adhesive solutions significantly increases the productivity of on-demand packaging technologies.

  • Retaining magnets for universal fastening and closing

    An expanded line of retaining magnets supports more applications with new materials, shapes, systems and even raw magnets.

  • New remote water level monitoring system announced by Onset

    Onset, a provider of data logging solutions, has announced the release of its HOBOnet Remote Water Level Monitoring System, a monitoring solution that brings data collection to users to make smarter decisions.

  • Study: Clearing WWII-era munitions could contaminate the ocean

    These live mines, which still threaten to spew geysers or release contaminants into the water, are typically detonated with experts conducting controlled explosions to clear the underwater munitions. However, concerns have grown over the potential environmental impacts from these controlled explosions.

  • Scientists design UVC device for food sanitization

    The so-called Tribo-sanitizer features an ultraviolet-C lamp powered by the triboelectric effect, which occurs when two dissimilar materials come into contact or slide against each other, thereby transferring electric charge.

  • New resins and adhesives for imprint and optical-grade bonding

    These adhesives are specially formulated for imprint replication of refractive lenses and diffractive optical elements, and for optical bonding and alignment.

  • Hard carbon electrodes expand battery storage capacity

    Inorganic zinc-based compounds incorporated into hard carbon electrodes can vastly improve the capacity of sodium- and potassium-ion batteries.
