Chemists And Materials Scientists Develop Paint That Reveals Evidence Of Impacts
Chemists created a paint embedded with pressure-sensitive capsules that contain a contrastingly colored dye. Violent scratches, dents, or strikes cause the capsules to burst. Visual inspections for ... > more -
Food Chemists Use 'Edible Antifreeze' To Make Smoother Ice Cream
Chemists adding a tasteless edible protein called gelatin hydrolysate to ice cream find that it keeps ice crystals small, resulting in a smoother, more pleasing product. The protein inhibits the ... > more -
Engineers Design Two Piece Magnetic Aquarium Pump
Chemical engineers developed a pump that splits into two pieces, a propeller for the interior of the aquarium and a motor for the exterior, connected across the glass wall by strong magnets. The ... > more -
Engineers Guide Students To Apply Basic Principles To Toy Car Design
Students learned the principles of engineering and manufacturing when asked to design a toy car for a contest. They used computer design software to shape the car, then created wax and aluminum molds ... > more -
Transportation Researchers Calculate Number Of Crashes Due To Bad Weather
Researchers and statisticians found that 24% of all crashes occur during adverse weather conditions, including ice, snow, and rain. The research showed that most drivers do not account for adverse ... > more -

Computer Scientists Test Fatigued Driver Behavior
Human factors researchers created a virtual reality environment in order to obtain data on the effects of driving while fatigued. They found that tired drivers alter their steering patterns, from ... > more -
Engineers Create Virtual Crash Test Dummies
Engineers developed a humanlike computerized dummy to improve the analysis of crash safety. The software simulates a crash in three dimensions, allowing researchers to view injuries from different ... > more -
Engineers And Computer Scientists Use Computers To Simulate Car Crashes
Engineers created a 3-D crash simulator to increase their understanding of automobile safety. The software enables users to view cars and crashes from any angle, and to remove specific sections of ... > more -
Human Factors Psychologists Study How To Avoid Rear-end Collisions
Psychologists studied the way a trailing driver reacts to a car braking directly in front of theirs and researchers developed an early warning system algorithm to prevent rear end crashes from ... > more -
Biomedical Engineers Combat Congestive Heart Failure With Aquapheresis
Biomedical engineers designed a machine that removes the excess sodium and water from blood. If not removed, those items can compromise breathing and heart function. An intravenous catheter withdraws ... > more
