Physicist Explains Basic Principles Through Hands-on Fun
A Colorado State University professor has discovered how to get teens excited about science. Jones' Little Shop of Physics consists of 200 experiments using common household products that spin, glow, ... > more -
Doppler-based Stethoscope Ignores Outside Sounds
A new ultrasound stethoscope ignores outside noise, allowing medics to hear life-saving sounds inside the body. Developed by electrical engineers, the device exploits the Doppler effect as it sends ... > more -
Chemists Create Self-assembling Conductive Rubber
Polymer chemists have created a flexible, indestructible material, called metal rubber, that can be heated, frozen, washed or doused with jet fuel, and still retain its electricity-conducting ... > more -
Environmental Engineers Use Algae To Capture Carbon Dioxide
Engineers have designed a simple, sustainable and natural carbon sequestration solution using algae. A team at Ohio University created a photo bioreactor that uses photosynthesis to grow algae, ... > more -
Neurologists Use New Brain Scanning Device To Better Control Seizures
Doctors are now using a new kind of brain scan called magnetoencephalography (MEG), which measures brain activity in real time. In some cases, MEG can pinpoint the source of an epileptic seizure much ... > more -
Materials Scientists Copy Beetle Anatomy To Develop New Coatings
Scientists at M.I.T. looking to add new chemical functionalities to spray coatings have turned to the beetle for inspiration. Some beetles that live in very arid climates get their drinking water by ... > more -
Scientists Develop E-ink To Replace Books, Newspapers
Scientists at Sony have developed an electronic version of ink, currently used in the E-Reader, that enables thousands of books to be carried around in one portable, energy-efficient case. Ink ... > more -
Engineers Design Nails To Better Resist Natural Disasters
Geometry and mathematical calculations were used to design a next-generation nail for building homes that are twice as resistant to high winds and nearly 50 percent more resistant to earthquake ... > more -
Computerized Defibrillator Guides Untrained Users
Human factors engineers have developed a CPR machine that allows people without CPR training to save the lives of those who are suffering from cardiac arrest. It monitors, and gives feedback about, ... > more -
Cochlear Implants Work Better If Done On Both Ears
Unlike other acoustical devices such as hearing aids, which just amplify sounds, cochlear implants mimic what happens inside the ear, changing sound waves into electrical signals sent to the brain. ... > more -
Human Factors Engineers Help Faa Develop User-friendly Markings
The Federal Aviation Administration's new Enhanced Surface Markings Project, developed with the help of human factors engineers, promises to reduce the number of collisions on airport runways. The ... > more -
New Jetliner Technology Emphasizes Human Factors
The new Boeing 787 Dreamliner will be the first of a new generation of commercial aircraft provided with a number of new technologies to increase comfort and reduce jet-lag. Human-factors engineers ... > more
