Guided by Assistant Professor Tony Pollman, a Naval Postgraduate School team belonging to the Department of Systems Engineering developed a unique apparatus using a dual-Stirling engine charge and recovery technique for liquid air energy storage (LAES) platforms.

A bandage capable of releasing medication the moment an infection begins in a wound could treat injuries in a much better way.

In the early 2000s, flame-retardant materials called PBDEs were successfully banned; however, it got substituted by another challenging chemical series termed organophosphate esters (OPEs).

Inflammation of the heart muscle is called myocarditis. This is typically caused by viruses, such as in Covid-19 disease. However, it can also be triggered by toxic substances, medication, or the background of a rheumatological disease.

Two groups of physicists guided by Peter Zoller and Thomas Monz have engineered the first programmable quantum sensor and verified it in the lab.

Climate warming and the looming depletion of fossil resources are driving up demand for electric automobiles. The price of lithium, which is required to power electric vehicles, is also rising as a result of the rising demand. Evaporation or filtration procedures are used to extract lithium from salt lake brines—however, a considerable proportion of magnesium dissolved in the brine has made lithium mining difficult.

The amount of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions discharged during the making of vegetable oil has been revealed by a new international study, emphasizing the necessity for more sustainable growing solutions.

Texas can serve as a model for the country on how to efficiently substitute coal with solar and wind for the energy requirements of the state while adhering to environmental targets, according to a new study by engineers from Rice University.

Our solar system was shaped by massive collisions between rocky bodies. Observations of a similar accident provide information about how common such crashes occur near other stars.

During the last half-century, the everyday life of humans has been drastically changed for the better due to the billions of tons of plastic items manufactured in the “Plastic Age.” However, the plastic waste that has penetrated the environment is presenting new issues for nature.
