Imagine a "smart fluid" whose internal structure can be rearranged just by changing temperature. In a new study published in Matter, researchers report a way to overcome a long-standing limitation in ...

UNSW researchers have developed a thermal-aware tracking algorithm that reduces solar module temperatures and UV exposure during inverter clipping and curtailment, slowing degradation without lowering ...

An international research team has reviewed emerging solid-state and gas-cycle heat pumps capable of reaching temperatures of up to 1,600 K, assessing their challenges, applications, scalability, and ...

What neural activity in motor cortex represents and how it controls ongoing movement remain unclear. Suggestions that cortex generates low-level muscle control are discredited by correlations with ...

Abstract: This study establishes a Simulink model for a two-degree-of-freedom (2-DOF) railway vehicle system. The spatial frequency of the track irregularity power spectrum is initially converted to ...

The best smart thermostats we've tested can control your home's heating and cooling with your phone or voice—and might help you save on energy costs. I’ve been working with computers for ages, ...

For decades, one of fusion energy’s hardest problems has been keeping superheated plasma from blasting holes in reactor walls. A United States team working on the DIII-D tokamak now reports using ...

Abstract: Temperature stability is paramount in precision engineering systems, but achieving high-precision temperature control over a wide temperature range remains challenging. To address this issue ...
