Diamond has the highest thermal conductivity of any material, which makes it an excellent choice for thermal management in electronic devices.

With the increasing scarcity of physical money in the pockets of people in the developed world, beggars and homeless are finding it harder to collect money in the street. A pilot program provides homeless individuals with a QR code that generous passersby, in the absence of change, can scan with their smartphones to make a donation.

A stabilized liquid material screens out smaller objects while allowing passage of larger ones.

Aeolus will capture direct wind profile measurements on a global scale for the first time with a Doppler wind lidar instrument.

Fujipoly recently published a video that demonstrates and explains compression testing for thermal interface materials.

For years, the science behind why spaghetti splits into multiple pieces when broken by hand has perplexed scientists. MIT researchers recently figured out why and the solution could help with more than just your dinner.

The grand celestial library – based on observations by the Gaia satellite – is expected to shed light on the secrets of our galaxy.

The world's first 4D printing method for ceramics produces mechanically robust objects with complex shapes.

Drone Delivery Beyond the Visual Line of Sight, Smartphone App to Detect Strokes, World's Most Fuel-Efficient Vehicle

Mazak will display their new Done In One® part-processing machines at IMTS 2018 with their new Hybrid Multi-tasking series. These new machine tools combine additive and subtractive processes into a single machine so that complex parts can be manufactured in a single setup and program.

Super-insulating and transparent aerogels can be applied to windows, whether on Earth or in space habitats.

A prototype flexible heat shield for spacecraft could reduce the cost of space travel and aid future space missions to Mars.

Diamond is much more than a pretty stone. Diamond has unique properties, such as the highest thermal conductivity of any material, high electron mobility, an extremely wide band gap, broad optical transparency from UV to infrared and outstanding strength and hardness.

A United Launch Alliance Delta IV Heavy rocket, carrying the spacecraft, lifted off at 3:31 a.m. EDT from Space Launch Complex 37 on Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida.

Researchers from the University of Minnesota have developed a 3D printed guide device that could change the lives of patients with spinal cord injuries.

Photovoltaic technology developed at the University of Exeter, UK, offers the potential to harvest three times the energy compared with conventional solar cell systems.
