    The vehicle just started transporting lime and marl rocks from a higher mining area to a lower processing plant in Switzerland.

  • Carnegie Mellon and Sony to Create Robot Chefs

    With robots being introduced into just about every industry imaginable, it’s only a logical next step that robots would eventually make their debut in the kitchen, helping to streamline food preparation.

  • Billions of Cockroaches Bred By AI for Medicinal Purposes Could Cause Catastrophe

    A cockroach breeding farm run by artificial intelligence (AI) in China is attracting the attention of insect experts concerned that any failure (human or otherwise) to contain the pests would result in the catastrophic infestation of nearby cities.

  • Work Set to Start on Next Phase of Oroville Dam Repair

    A California state agency says it wants to maximize the 2018 construction window to ensure the dam's main spillway is fully reconstructed before next winter.

  • Merger to Create $29b Natural Gas and Electric Utility

    Companies in Texas and Indiana plan to merge into an energy delivery, infrastructure and services company serving more than 7 million customers across the U.S.

  • Adaptive Materials Developed for Future Military Aircraft

    Achievement of on-demand control of composite behavior could help accelerate the evolution of new capabilities for future rotorcraft design, performance and maintenance.

  • Report Lists Top Corporate Solar Adopters in the U.S.

    The report contains data from over 4,000 companies, totaling more than 2.5 GW of solar capacity across approximately 7,400 solar projects.

  • New U.S. Wind Turbine Database Released

    The database covers more than 57,000 turbines constructed from the 1980s through 2018 in more than 1,700 projects spanning 43 states, plus Puerto Rico and Guam.

  • Fully Integrated Traction Motor System (E-Axle) Developed by Nidec

    The fully integrated traction motor system (e-axle) comprises an electric motor, reduction gear box and inverter.

  • Watch Students Advise President Trump on Earth Day

    You’ve met the president in an elevator. What do you tell him about the environment?

  • Graphene Enables Breakthrough for Light Confinement

    Researchers have confined light down to a space of one atom. The work could pave the way to optical switches, detectors and sensors with a thickness of a single nanometer.

  • Keep Your Couplings Clean and Dry

    Stafford Manufacturing Corp. has introduced a new rigid shaft coupling cover that keeps couplings protected from dirt, dust and water. Stafford coupling covers are manufactured with ID sizes from 3/4" to 2" and are available in machined, injection molded or 3D-printed versions to fit straight-through and reducer style rigid couplings.

  • Hubble Telescope Celebrates 28 Years in Space with a Stunning Capture

    To celebrate Hubble’s “birthday” each year, NASA/ESA release a new image taken from the telescope. This year’s image features the Lagoon Nebula, a beautiful space that’s fit for a celebration.

  • Model Mimics Wood Formation for Studying the Production of Lignin in Wood

    The model has the potential to speed up the process of engineering and customizing trees for specific uses, like timber, biofuel, pulp, paper and more.

  • Electrochemical Compressor Supports the FCEV Market

    An electrochemical compressor that selectively extracts hydrogen from several different gas mixtures is compact, silent and proven to outperform any mechanical hydrogen compressor whether it is being used for home refuelling systems, public refuelling stations or other large-scale industrial uses.

  • Artificial Mole Could Warn of Cancer

    An encapsulated gene network implanted under the skin produces a tattoo as an early indicator of cancer.

  • Immunogene Therapy for Lung Cancer Patients

    A clinical-stage gene therapy is presented targeting lung cancer patients that do not meet specific genomic profiles required for existing targeted molecular cancer therapies.

  • New Process of Recycling Rare Earth Magnets from Hard Drives Developed

    Researchers from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Critical Materials Institute (CMI) have created a new recycling process that turns old hard disk drive (HDD) magnets into a brand-new magnet material with just a few steps.

  • Fluorescent Silk Slays Harmful Bacteria

    Plasmonic photocatalyst-like biomaterials and visible light were demonstrated to deactivate pathogens.
