Eco-friendly sound absorbers from seaweed Posted: 14 Jul 2022 11:50 AM PDT From airplanes to apartments, most spaces are now designed with sound-absorbing materials that help dampen the droning, echoing and murmuring sounds of everyday life. But most of the acoustic materials that can cancel out human voices, traffic and music are made from plastic foams that aren't easily recycled or degraded. Now, researchers have created a biodegradable seaweed-derived film that effectively absorbs sounds in this range. |
Nanotube-embedded coating detects threats from wear and tear in large structures Posted: 14 Jul 2022 11:50 AM PDT Carbon nanotubes' natural fluorescence enables a method to detect high strain concentrations that can lead to damage threatening the integrity of critical infrastructure like aircraft, buildings, pipelines, bridges and ships. |
A new peptide system for the targeted transport of molecules into living mammalian cells Posted: 14 Jul 2022 11:43 AM PDT Scientists have developed a novel peptide suitable for the targeted transport of molecules -- for example, active substances and dyes -- into the cells of mammals. |
Changes in protein structure and assembly with fluoride nanoparticles and coexisting ions Posted: 14 Jul 2022 07:30 AM PDT Scientists demonstrate the influence of nanoparticles and surrounding ions on the formation of beta-sheet structure in amyloid beta proteins. |
Photovoltaics: Fully scalable all-perovskite tandem solar modules Posted: 14 Jul 2022 07:30 AM PDT Optimized light paths, high-throughput laser scribing and the use of established coating processes paves the way to commercial viability. |
Waves in the maze of no return: Anti-reflective structure for perfect transmission Posted: 14 Jul 2022 07:30 AM PDT Researchers have developed a surprising method to eliminate wave reflections. The method allows the calculation of a tailor-made anti-reflective structure. It can be used, for example, to design an additional layer to a wall that is only partially permeable to a wireless signal so that the entire signal can be channeled through the wall without reflections. |
Action of drug compounds in tissue revealed by new technique Posted: 14 Jul 2022 06:51 AM PDT A new technique that can analyze how drug molecules bind to proteins in tissue samples could offer an improved route to drug discovery and development. |
Virtual reality app trial shown to reduce common phobias Posted: 14 Jul 2022 06:11 AM PDT The trial studied phobia patients using a headset and a smartphone app treatment programme -- a combination of Virtual Reality (VR) 360-degree video exposure therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). |
Researchers use quantum-inspired approach to increase lidar resolution Posted: 13 Jul 2022 12:42 PM PDT Researchers have shown that a quantum-inspired technique can be used to perform lidar imaging with a much higher depth resolution than is possible with conventional approaches. Lidar, which uses laser pulses to acquire 3D information about a scene or object, is usually best suited for imaging large objects such as topographical features or built structures due to its limited depth resolution. |
Off-road motorcycles put four times more kids in hospital than quad-bikes Posted: 13 Jul 2022 08:46 AM PDT Safety of off-road motorcycles needs more attention as study shows two-wheelers account for more hospitalization of children in NSW, Australia, than quad-bikes. |
