Applied Nanotech has developed a way to make some solar technology cheaper, which could reduce the cost of solar panels. Solar panels are made up of a collection of solar wafers, and the company is attempting to make solar technology cheaper by creating a thinner silicon wafer, and a more efficient way to apply the metallic ink without breaking the wafer. Applied Nanotech has … [Read more...]

OLED Lighting Market to Improve, but Still Fall Short
Organic light emitting diode (OLED) lighting has the potential to create cheap, pleasing light in flexible form factors. However, the technology is immature and costly today. According to a new report from Lux Research, OLED lighting costs will drop by more than an order of magnitude over the course of this decade, but the technology will still remain uncompetitive with other … [Read more...]
The Search for Green Air-Conditioning
With the world’s population fast approaching 7 billion, how do we meet the growing demand for energy in a responsible, equitable, and sustainable way? It’s a question National Geographic, in partnership with Shell, is asking in its three-year initiative, The Great Energy Challenge, which is designed to shed light on the breadth and depth of the current energy situation. Recent … [Read more...]
Multi-GPU Accelerated Wing Tip Vortex Extraction Using Avizo Framework
This paper presents a scientific visualization framework where strong vortical flow features, commonly appearing in turbulent flow, are extracted to support parameterization, automation and interactive exploration of CFD solutions. Tip vortex near an aerodynamic wing is used as an example to demonstrate how this framework can be used to quantitatively analyze and innovatively … [Read more...]
