  • One Fabric to Cool (and Warm) Them All

    A new double-sided fabric can keep the wearer warm or cool, depending on which side faces out.

  • CO2 Emissions Are Both Down and Up, Data Shows

    Carbon dioxide emissions associated with coal consumption in the U.S. fell by 231 million metric tons in 2015 and global emissions are set to rise after a three-year lull.

  • Robots Saving Lives in War Zones

    As concerns mount amid warnings that robots will eventually overrun humans, some life-saving benefits, particularly of robots used in war zones, are being overlooked.

  • Aircraft Maker Sees Solid Growth in Africa for Turboprops

    Intra-regional traffic is forecast by Bombardier to grow 4.6 percent a year between now and 2037.

  • Researchers Use A SPIM System with Two Lenses to View High Quality Biospecimens

    Researchers from the National Institutes of Health and the University of Chicago improved the speed, resolution and light efficiency of an optical microscope by switching from a conventional glass coverslip to a reflective, mirrored coverslip and applying new computer algorithms to process the resulting data.

  • Insects Still Being Considered Possible Food Source Despite "Ick" Factor

    As the global population increases, so too does the need to find sustainable food and feed sources.

  • Ford Testing Exoskeleton Vest That Could Help Assembly Line Workers

    With a number of daily tasks requiring workers to raise their hands above their heads in a prolonged stance that mimics changing a light bulb, the impact on workers can range from sore arms and shoulders to overall workplace dissatisfaction.

  • New Ventilated Façade Design Boosts Building Energy Efficiency

    A proposed double chamber system reduces energy gains and losses as well as energy consumption due to air flow.

  • Now Available: A Hydrogen Fueling Station Testing Trailer

    CSA Group, which provides inspection and certification services in Canada and the U.S., has developed on-site evaluation testing equipment for hydrogen fueling stations.

  • How Viruses Can Improve Food Safety

    Bacteriophages embedded into films or coatings function as antimicrobial materials that can find use as food packaging or can disinfect food preparation surfaces.

  • Piezo-Rubber Produces Power When Stressed

    The flexible, electricity-generating material might be used as a sensor, integrated into clothing or implanted in the human body to power a pacemaker.

  • Thumbtack Miniature Breather Valves for Small Containers

    AGM Container Controls Thumbtack and ThumbtackPlus line of miniature breather valves provide pressure and vacuum relief for small enclosures. Their small size, literally the size of a thumbtack, makes them ideal for small transit cases and enclosures with low-flow requirements.

  • Researchers Develop a Way to Transform Biofuel Waste Into Wealth

    A team of researchers from Sandia National Laboratories has demonstrated, faster, more efficient ways to turn discarded plant matter into chemicals that could be worth millions.

  • Green Roof Initiative Passes in Denver

    Denver voters approved an ordinance requiring that any building greater than 25,000 square feet have a percentage of its roof covered with green, vegetative space or solar.

  • Putting Some 'Mussel' into Estuarine Denitrification

    Ribbed mussels proved effective in filtering nitrogen and other pollutants from a highly urbanized estuary.

  • New Plug-and-Play Robotic Wrist Camera

    Robotiq introduced a new plug-and-play, vision-guided, pick-and-place solution for Universal Robots. Setup is a 5-minute process on the shop floor using the compact wrist camera and robot user interface.

  • China Energy Eyes Marcellus with $83B Investment Pledge
