Physicists Develop Ultrasound Alternative To Mammograms
Radiologists suspend a patient's breast in water, and then send sound waves through the water in order to image breast tissue. The device uses 256 ultrasonic sensors to assemble 50 to 70 two ... > more -
Computer Scientists Investigate Traffic Lights To Improve Fuel Economy
Using a mathematical model, transportation engineers can design optimum traffic light timing patterns for the fewest stops and driving delays. Improving traffic flow would decrease fuel consumption. ... > more -
Operations Researchers Predict Path Of Pandemics
Using math and computer science, engineers created a model to forecast the progression of a future pandemic. They looked at the way diseases spread to new people and over distances in order to ... > more -
Environmental Scientists Fume About Disappearing Flower Fragrances
Biochemists have shown that air pollution inhibits the distance that flower's fragrances can travel. Scent molecules usually travel easily in the air, but pollutants break them apart, which destroys ... > more -
Atmospheric Scientists' Model Predicts Hurricane Threat Months In Advance
Meteorologists can make long range predictions about hurricane activity months in advance using what they call the Atlantic Meridional Mode. It is the relationship between sea surface temperature, ... > more -
Meteorologists Increase Understanding Of Tornado Formation
Meteorologists recently studied the effect of gravity waves on tornado formation. They found that when gravity waves push down on rotating thunderstorms the storm compresses and spins faster. Being ... > more -
Fire Scientists Engineer Water-free, Environmentally Safe Fire Suppressant
Fire scientists developed a fluid that stops hot particles from kindling flames and suppresses fires. It does not cause damage to water soluble inks, nor does it contribute to serious environmental ... > more -
Computer Scientists Create System That Gives Users A Sense Of Touch
A non-mechanical haptic interface allows computer users to manipulate a three dimensional object on screen and receive immediate tactile response from the surroundings of that object. The interface ... > more -
Civil Engineers Design Walk Through Butterfly Museum Exhibit
Structural engineers created a cocoon-like structure to hold butterflies and keep them flying around visitors. Low ceilings keep the insects at visitor-level, while screened-off ventilation systems ... > more -
Biochemists Develop Proteomic Test For Breast Cancer
Biochemists look at 22 protein biomarkers to distinguish patients with breast cancer from those without it. The early detection test complements mammograms and is most applicable to women who are at ... > more
