Software can be described in two ways, what it does (functional) and how it does it (non-functional). As a software matures in terms of its functional capability it is often the case that more effort goes in to developing it's non-functional strengths. We introduced 'FloSCRIPT' with V10, a scripting language to enable FloTHERM to be operated without the need for laborious … [Read more...]
Extreme-Temperature Probing Solutions Offered
Keysight Technologies recently introduced the N7007A extreme-temperature 400-MHz passive probe and the N7013A extreme-temperature extension kit for medium- and high-voltage differential active probes. According to the company, the extreme-temperature probing solutions offer bandwidths up to 400 MHz, and can withstand temperatures ranging from -40 degrees to +85 degrees … [Read more...]
New Synthetic ‘Water Adhesive’ Stronger than Natural Adhesives
MIT engineers have developed a synthetic, sticky hydrogel – or “tough, bonding water,” as lead paper author Hyunwoo Yuk calls it – that could be used as an adhesive for boats, submarines and other underwater surfaces. Hydrogel is tough, transparent, adheres to glass, silicon, aluminum, ceramics and titanium, and is made up mostly of water. According to Phys.org, to create the … [Read more...]
Viable Energy Storing Solution Combines Metal Nitrides and Graphene
A*STAR researchers have developed a viable energy storing solution for supercapacitors by combining metal nitride electrodes with thin sheets of graphene. According to Phys.org, Hui Huang from A*STAR's Singapore Institute of Manufacturing Technology and his colleagues from Nanyang Technological University and Jinan University, China, call it an “asymmetric” supercapacitor, … [Read more...]
Researchers Use Infrared Laser to Refrigerate Liquids
Recently, the University of Washington research team has successfully used an infrared laser to cool water. According to Phys.org, the process uses a microscopic crystal suspended in water and an infrared laser light, to cool the water to about 36 degrees Fahrenheit. The heat from the infrared laser excites a kind of glow from the crystal that has “slightly more energy than … [Read more...]
