Cosen Saws solution for cutting aluminum
With V_Drive technology, these band saws also cut harder, denser materials like titanium, hastelloy and other nickel-based metals at significantly increased rates.
Fundamentals of plasma spray
This process can be used to add wear coatings, chemically resistant coatings, thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) and even to create free-standing materials.
Improving adhesives and application processes for electric vehicles
This article will discuss the special challenges posed by different applications in the EV industry during manufacturing, assembly, and operation.
Video: Startup launches Kickstarter campaign for its invisibility shield
The company, aptly dubbed Invisibility Shield Co., has reportedly engineered a lens array that deflects light from the subject — positioned behind the shield — away from the observer — positioned in front of the shield.
New coating could lead the way to long-lasting industrial products
The coating can be used to create long-lasting industrial products and durable plastic PVC pipes and concrete surfaces.
Fundamentals of gas-liquid absorption columns
The purpose of a gas-liquid absorption column is to convert a waste product into something of potential industrial use while simultaneously reducing harmful emissions.
Eagle Stainless celebrates 40 years in business
The company has gained much experience in supplying stainless steel tubing and other metals to the medical, aerospace and industrial industries.
Researchers tie gas flaring activities to premature deaths
Using computational models, the team estimated that 26 to 53 premature deaths that year were the direct consequence of the air quality linked to flaring activities.
Timing belt pulley design: What every product designer must know
Many product designers and engineers are often plagued with challenges when designing efficient timing pulley systems.
Researchers determine alternative fate for some oil spills
To make this determination, researchers used LED reactors to measure how photo-dissolution occurs under different types of light, such as ultraviolet and visible light, and other conditions.
Massive oil and gas industry methane plumes detected from space
With previous values significantly underestimated, such methane plumes are reportedly largely due to undeclared releases of methane by industry operators in the name of intentional venting and regular maintenance.
Anti-soiling, anti-corrosion coating increases power yield of solar panels
The combination of four nanomaterials results in a 120 nm thick layer of coating that demonstrates anti-soiling, anti-abrasion, self-cleaning and anti-reflective behaviors.
Material withstands high-speed projectiles even better than Kevlar
The incorporation of Kevlar nanofibers into carbon nanotube mats produced hydrogen bonds between the fibers, according to the researchers.
