Rico, a 9-year-old prehensile-tailed Brazilian porcupine who has been delighting visitors at the Cincinnati Zoo for years, loves to eat, especially corn on the cob. Warming waters are causing the ...

An international team of researchers have observed a phenomenon called virtual melting in colloidal crystals. They studied how it helps enable changes from one crystalline structure to another ...

Researchers at MIT have tested a new technology for turning water vapor in the atmosphere into drinkable water, even in ...

The ice that makes up glaciers isn't 100% solid – it's actually full of air bubbles, some of which formed centuries ago.

Regions prone to monsoon activity now see unpredictable wind‑shear layers at critical altitudes. Aircraft designed for older norms may find these conditions challenging.

Some of the effects that therapeutic ultrasound has in medicine and biology may be associated with steady oscillations of gas bubbles in liquid, very close to tissue surface. The bubble oscillations ...

The present study deals with dilational and shear rheological properties of adsorption layers of the milk protein β-casein (BCS) mixed with the nonionic dodecyl dimethyl phosphine oxide (C12DMPO) and ...

Bubble crystals in water are expected to achieve the broad and low-frequency acoustic band gaps that are crucial for acoustic blocking. However, preparing patterned bubble crystals in water remains a ...

Abstract In this paper, using an analytical optimization method, optimum design of multi-layer compound cylinders with different materials in layers is investigated. For this purpose, considering ...
