The formation of ice on wind turbine rotor blades causes a variety of problems, including rotational imbalance which leads to increased wear and tear. The Fraunhofer Institute for Manufacturing Technology and Advanced Materials (IFAM) and Read More
Researchers at EPFL’s Reconfigurable Robotics Lab (RRL) have designed a sensor that can simultaneously detect multiple stimuli – such as bending, stretching, compression, and temperature shifts – by using color. The new sensor shows promise Read More
Norse Atlantic Airways has partnered with Avinxt to use AI robots to perform regular maintenance functions, such as de-icing and washing. The airline points out that the use of this technology will both reduce carbon Read More
A team of researchers led by Dr. Liang Yang – Lecturer in Marine Renewable Energy Systems at Cranfield University in England – has developed a concept that has the potential to drastically cut greenhouse gas Read More
A team led by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBL) has designed a new self-assembling nanosheet that has the potential to radically accelerate the development of functional and sustainable nanomaterials for electronics, energy storage, health and Read More
Researchers from MIT, Inkbit – an the MIT spinout, and ETH Zurich have designed a 3D inkjet printing system that not only expands the range of materials available, but also demonstrates a much higher speed Read More
Researchers at TU Wien have been exploring different metallic alloys to find the most efficient thermoelectric material. Thermoelectric materials are capable of converting heat directly into electrical energy and vice versa, and have potential for Read More
Teams of researchers from MIT and Harvard have developed an efficient process that can convert carbon dioxide into formate – a material that can be used like hydrogen or methanol to power a fuel cell Read More
The US Department of Energy (DOE) has funded the development of a microgrid orchestrator designed to establish a network of microgrids that can be managed as a single cluster – essentially creating a grid of Read More
Researchers at the University of Cambridge have developed a floating, solar-powered device that can turn contaminated water or seawater into clean hydrogen fuel and purified water. The technology has potential for use in areas which Read More
