  • Autonomous, Reusable Experimental Spacecraft Being Developed by Boeing and DARPA

    The Phantom Express would travel to the edge of space carrying and deploying expendable satellites

  • Obsolete Design Puts 1 in 5 Storage Wells at Risk: Study

    The study from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health says that the obsolete wells operate in 19 states across 160 facilities that encompass more than half of the total working gas capacity in the U.S.

  • China Wind Giant Buys the Heart of Texas

    The 160 MW wind energy project will be around 125 miles northwest of Austin, and will use Goldwind GW 121/2.5 MW wind turbines.

  • Running Shoes May Not Degrade as Quickly as Previously Thought

    Think you have hit a limit with your running shoes and need to buy a new pair? According to a collaborative study from Deakin University School of Engineering and School of Exercise and Nutrition Sciences, running shoes don’t wear out as much as previously thought.

  • The Lasting Effect of Wildfire Smoke on the Atmosphere

    The impact of wildfire smoke on the atmosphere lasts longer than previously thought, according to recent research from the Georgia Institute of Technology.

  • Trimble Targets Ag Growth with Müller-Elektronik Buy

    Trimble says that it plans to buy privately held Müller-Elektronik, a German company specializing in implement control and precision farming.

  • Air Traffic Control Upgrades Completed in New York

    Raytheon replaced software and hardware and more than 100 automation systems with the Standard Terminal Automation Replacement System.

  • Protecting Autonomous Vehicles from Cyberattack

    As vehicles become more and more autonomous — internet-enabled, self-driving — their vulnerability to cyberattacks becomes greater and greater. As a result, Texas A&M University researchers have created an intelligent transportation system prototype to prevent collisions and to help thwart autonomous vehicle hacking attempts.

  • The Diagnostic and Efficiency Merits of Dried vs. Wet Blood Samples

    Blood proteins remain relatively stable when samples dry, suggesting their use for less resource-intensive routine health service checks.

  • Drone Provides Tornado Damage Assessment in Oklahoma

    Small unmanned aerial systems provided real-time support for disaster response efforts after the May 16 event.

  • Electricity Delivers Drugs through Skin

    An iontophoresis medication delivery system uses a direct current to introduce ions of soluble salts or other drugs into the body.

  • First ITER Magnet Manufactured in Europe

    The first of 18 toroidal field coils for the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) has been manufactured in Europe.

  • Lighter and Better Bumpers without Steel

    Lightweight aluminum alloys are being developed to replace steel in automotive bumpers and railway crash systems.

  • Engineering Insight: Industry Preferences for Pneumatic and Hydraulic Products

    Want to know which industries prefer hydraulic actuation over pneumatic? Engineering360 can help.

  • Miller Electics Introduces New SubArc Digital Series Interface

    Miller Electrics Mfg. Co. is introducing its new SubArc Digital Series, Submerged Arc Welding Power Source. The AC welding output enables the SubArc AC/DC to be used in tandem arc welding systems with a DC lead arc and AC trailing arc, or with AC/AC arc combinations. Miller said that results in shorter welding cycles for thick weldments, without sacrificing quality.

  • How Mass Flow Controllers Make Our Gas Smell

    Odorisation of natural gas is done to act as a ‘warning agent’ in case of leakage. The idea is that people can smell the gas prematurely if it is present, because if there is too much gas present it can be explosive.

  • How to Cheat on Your Emissions Test

    An international team of researchers has found the computer code Volkswagen used to circumvent emissions standards for its diesel engines.

  • Developing a Neutralizer-free Plasma Propulsion for Spacecraft

    The system has a comparable number of positive and negative charged particles to remain charge-neutral

  • Seal Selection for Valve Design and Retrofitting

    Valve seals must be selected to provide enhanced durability and life in the end-use application while meeting increasingly stringent performance criteria in regards to leakage and low emissions.
