  • These robots will make your skin crawl: Part 1

    Join Engineering360 as we revisit in a two-part article some of the creepy crawly species to influence robot technology.

  • Video: Flowrox LPP-T transferring hose pump incorporates an advanced design to maximize efficiency

    Benefits of the Flowrox include capability to pump 24/7, no overheating at high continuous flow rates, no mixing or shearing, energy efficiency and low operating costs as well as ease of maintenance.

  • This is the HVAC tech that will replace vapor compression

    Emerging HVAC technologies are more environmentally sustainable and energy-efficient relative to common vapor compression systems.

  • Emerson’s TopWorx PD series smart valve positioners minimize costly downtime

    This new series of compact, smart valve control devices communicates with advanced protocols including HART and can be certified for hazardous areas.

  • Vogelsang presents its new industrial pumps for media with high demands

    The EP series rotary lobe pumps are designed for extreme conditions and constant high-pressure performance. A heavy-duty gearbox allows for a uniform pressure output of up to 18 bar (261 psi), making it a one of a kind on the market today.

  • A nondestructive method to catch cracks in concrete

    Successfully demonstrated at the laboratory scale, the method could be used to diagnose cracking phenomena in dams, bridges and other concrete structures.

  • Video: Prime primed for vertical launch from the UK

    The biofuel-propelled reusable rocket now sits on its pad at Space Hub Sutherland in northern Scotland.

  • Video: Peekytoe crab-inspired remote-controlled robot paves the way for micro-robots

    Inspired by the peekytoe crab, the half a millimeter-wide robotic crab is smaller than a flea and is capable of bending, twisting, walking, crawling and jumping.

  • Why heat pumps are key to decarbonizing HVAC

    Improvements in and greater deployment of heat pump systems offer a route to HVAC system decarbonization.

  • Speeding up threat detection at airport security

    The Open Threat Assessment Platform allows the U.S. Transportation Security Administration to respond more quickly and easily to threats to air travel safety.

  • Video: Throwable surveillance bot promises to keep military, law enforcement safe

    Using its onboard cameras, sensors and LED lights, the SIGYN Mk1 Recon System can report real-time intelligence to soldiers or police officers located remotely without risking their lives.

  • TID accepts grant for solar panels on canals expanding on University of California study

    The panels will generate up to a total of 5 MW. Although this is less than 1% of the peak demand by the 100,000 plus customers in TID, if successful, the idea could spread elsewhere on the 250 miles of canal.

  • New tech shields against unwanted wireless surveillance

    To prevent possible surveillance of the movement profile within one’s home, researchers have developed a system for protecting privacy in wireless communication.

  • Video: New records set for climate change indicators in 2021

    Discover which four key climate change indicators set new records in 2021.

  • Global Data Vision launches new solution for the global standards community

    The Global Directory was developed as an innovative platform for international organizations and is the world’s first central repository for industry-specific lab and testing services.

  • Video: Underwater robots deployed to harvest eDNA

    Ocean scientists from the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute and the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration have deployed long-range autonomous underwater vehicles equipped with environmental sample processors designed to autonomously harvest evidence of the marine life entering various ocean regions under examination.

  • Presenting the E2H-ESD electro-hydraulic actuator for emergency shutdown valves

    A wide range of temperature ratings makes the E2H-ESD series actuators suitable for use in diverse applications under different temperature conditions.

  • Watch as this soft pasta-like robot maneuvers a maze

    The corkscrew design and smart material composition of the soft robots enable them to maneuver through mazes and other complex environments without guidance from computer software or humans, according to the robot’s developers.

  • 12 common HVAC communication protocols

    Discover the functions and common use cases of the numerous HVAC communication protocols available, both open and proprietary.

  • Purdue pushes for nuclear-powered campus

    Purdue, a national leader in scalable and sustainable energy innovation, has now partnered with Duke Energy to explore the use of advanced nuclear energy for the long-term energy needs of its campus.
