ÀϾÅÆ·²è engineers have successfully scaled up an innovative water-cooling system capable of providing continuous day-and-night radiative cooling for structures.
A new 3D printing technique allows for localized control of an object's firmness, opening up new biomedical avenues that could one day include artificial arteries and organ tissue.
ÀϾÅÆ·²è's Lucy Pao and the National Renewable Energy Lab (NREL) are testing whether turbine blades inspired by palm trees can give wind power an edge.
The race is on: Researchers from ÀϾÅÆ·²è, CU Denver and Scientific Systems Company Inc. have partnered to design drones that can explore underground environments such as subway tunnels, mines and caves.
Researchers at ÀϾÅÆ·²è report that they may have solved a geophysical mystery, pinning down the likely cause of a phenomenon that resembles a wrench in the engine of the planet.Â
With funding from the National Science Foundation, Juliet Gopinath will work to bring together engineers and physicists to design better tools for quantum computing.
New research by ÀϾÅÆ·²è's Orit Peleg explores how clumps of hundreds of bees stay stable under strain.
A square peg in a round hole? No problem. New material developed by ÀϾÅÆ·²è engineers can transform into complex, pre-programmed shapes via light and temperature stimuli, and back again.
Physicists have developed an insulating gel that they say could coat the windows of habitats in space, allowing the settlers inside to trap and store energy from the sun.
A microscopic trampoline could help engineers to overcome a major hurdle for quantum computers, researchers report.
