Researchers found that cycling water in nanopores of water-repellent silicon can convert mechanical energy into measurable ...
The Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH) scientists and colleagues from the German Electron Synchrotron (DESY), one of the ...
Pneumatic cylinders and actuators are much like their hydraulic and electric counterparts: Their main task is to generate enough force to move a load from one point to another. But how much force is ...
Pity the protons: Those little particles are under a lot of pressure. Protons’ innards are squeezed harder than any other substance we have measured, a new study finds. “It’s really the highest ...
Schematic illustration of Friction Force Microscopy (FFM). The AFM cantilever, a small diving board-like structure about 200 micrometers long, 50 micrometers wide, and 1 micrometer thick, has a sharp ...
