  • Artificial swimming microrobots developed using just three ingredients

    The artificial swimmers are composed of a detergent-like substance, oil and water.

  • Webtec introduces its new hand-held hydraulic data logger

    Using the HPM7000 eliminates the complex and time-consuming process of collecting data with pen and paper.

  • Video: World record for longest solar-powered flight in a production electric aircraft

    A 227 nautical mile trip over central California marks the longest flight for a production electric aircraft powered by solar energy.

  • Tracking Fukushima radiocontamination with snakes on a plain

    Rat snakes can serve as reptilian bioindicators of radiocontamination.

  • Scientists turn cornflakes into packaging

    Cornflake waste byproduct could be turned into Styrofoam peanut alternative.

  • Eaton introduces its fully automated, mobile IFPM 33 fluid purifier system

    Eaton's fully automated, mobile IFPM 33 fluid purifier system removes water, gases and particulate contaminants from oils.

  • Study: Diverse hiring committees are key to gathering diverse job applicants

    Recruitment teams and strategic leaders often blame the lack of diversity in their workforce on a lack of diverse applications. But this new study proves that the problem actually lies in a lack of diversity on the recruitment committee.

  • Drug testing with a blood-brain barrier on a chip

    The device can advance the study of pharmaceutical compound interaction with the blood-brain barrier without the need to rely on laboratory animal models.

  • Delicious manufacturing (July 25 - 31)

    But from beginning to end, food and beverage manufacturing is a unique engineering challenge. Raw materials. Supply chains. Manufacturing and processing. Sterilization and hygienics. Packaging. Join us for our salute to this unique industry.

  • Video: High-temperature electrolyzer to produce low-cost hydrogen

    The solid oxide technology-based system can be powered with multiple energy sources including intermittent renewable energy and excess heat.

  • Plastic polymer quickly degrades in sunlight

    The material decomposes in about one week in sunlight from a petroleum-based polymer into succinic acid.

  • Backup batteries installed at radwaste treatment facility

    The uninterruptable electrical power system is vital to safeguarding the plant in the event of a temporary power loss.

  • High-performance laser distance sensor for industrial applications

    The high-performance optoNCDT ILR2250 laser distance sensor is used whenever large measuring ranges and high accuracy are required. It can be installed at distances up to 100 m, and even up to 150 m with a reflector film. This sensor impresses when measuring dark, structured and poorly reflecting
