Sensing technology that assesses the quality of components used in sectors including aerospace could transform UK industry, its developers claim.


Oxford High School welcomed primary school students from across the city for a morning of science projects.

In 2019–2020, students of two English for Architects and Civil Engineers courses at a German university were tasked with creating a digital, multimodal video composition explaining a technical concept to a lay audience. The resultant multimodal artefacts, however, often did not exhibit typical semiotic patterns associated with explaining or describing in science-related disciplines. In particular, 78% of artefacts featured ‘mediated focalisation’, a framing technique used to align the comp...

Scientists created underwater robots inspired by mysterious zooplankton that could explore extraterrestrial oceans someday.

A team at Bristol University has developed ‘RoboSalps’, a marine robot inspired by the jellyfish-like salp zooplankton.
