Read MoreMIT engineers have designed Biohybrid Robots like springs to maximize the work of live muscle fibers and it also could be used as a basic skeleton-like module for almost any muscle-bound bot. Inspired by human muscles, which are nature’s perfect actuators for designs that turn energy into motion. Muscle fibers are more powerful and precise […]
Read MoreCalculating the weight of a given alloy is a crucial aspect of engineering and manufacturing processes. The weight of a metal component not only influences its performance but also impacts design considerations, material selection, and cost estimation. Here’s a detailed guide on how to accurately calculate metal weight: Importance of Metal Weight Calculation The weight […]
Read MoreImage source: Sheffield Forgemasters. The UK company Sheffield Forgemasters developed an innovative technique to produce components for Small Modular Reactors (SMRs). Hence, the construction only takes under 24 hours instead of the usual 12 months and can be mass-produced. This could be a complete revolution for the nuclear power sector. While conventional techniques may exceed […]
Read MoreTubes are an integral part of the modern world and are present in almost every industry. They are used mainly for transferring pressurized or unpressurized fluids (liquid and gas) but also for structural purposes. As such, tubes find use in various industries, including construction, aircraft, oil, gas, petrochemical, automotive, chemical, water treatment, sanitary systems, medical, […]
Read MoreThe mobility industry stands before its biggest obstacle yet: creating a sustainable, CO2-free transport for people and goods. The race has been on for some time, and various companies have different solutions to make our long-desired reality. From battery-electric road-going vehicles to hybrid airplanes, the mobility landscape of the future looks vastly different from the […]
Read MoreWind energy is a proven low-carbon solution with a high Energy Return on Investment. Despite its environmental benefits, the disposal of wind turbine blades, primarily made of non-recyclable fiberglass, poses a challenge as thousands retire each year. Beyond Landfills: Breathing New Life into Turbine Blades Canvus, a startup based in Avon, Ohio, is transforming decommissioned […]
Read MoreSeamless tubing is a type of metal tubing manufactured without welding seams, giving it a much higher strength, better durability, and higher corrosion resistance. Moreover, seamless tubing keeps uniformity throughout its length, which might be preferable in some applications. The main advantage of seamless tubing is the lack of weak points. For example, a longitudinally […]
Read MoreAbout a month ago, Honeywell, a technology company that delivers industry-specific solutions that include aerospace products and services, declared that its engine – the HTF7500 turbofan, had successfully passed the compatibility test when being used on an Embraer Praetor 600 aircraft with 100% sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), marking this the first time the fuel was […]
Read MorePollution and climate change are threatening the world’s most important resource, drinking water. It is said that over half of the world’s population could be facing water scarcity by 2025. Fog nets have long been a literal lifesaver in arid regions with regular fog as they are used to gather water in useful quantities and […]
Read More6061 Aluminum is a versatile, high-performance material. Highly cost-effective, it features a high aluminum content level and major alloying elements of magnesium, silicon, copper, and chromium. It can also contain trace amounts of additional elements, depending on an application’s requirements. It’s the most widely used heat-treatable aluminum alloy available and a critical alloy in many […]
Read MoreResearchers from the Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU), RMIT University, and the University of Sydney have successfully used additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing to develop high-performance titanium alloys to solve challenges associated with quality and waste management in the industrial production of titanium alloys. By integrating alloy design, computational simulations, and experimental characterization, […]
