Could humanity nuke an incoming asteroid to deflect it and save the Earth, disaster-movie style? A unique new impact ...

Plenty of asteroids can survive their fiery plunge through the Earth’s atmosphere. If they’re big enough, they can prove ...

Bell-Everman says its ServoBelt technology provides a cost-effective alternative to oversized gantry systems without sacrificing industrial-grade performance.

Planetary defence research often sits between modelling and imagination, with few chances to test real materials under realistic conditions. A new stu.

As building codes evolve and fire risks grow more complex, rigorous testing and third-party certification of passive fire ...

While futuristic car features might make you feel like James Bond out on the road, car safety experts have now warned that ...

Abstract: The paper presents information on the digital image correlation system, a contactless measurement technique which provides data on displacements of the recorded surface of the tested object.

Design engineers routinely rely on bolted joints, yet most guidance focuses on axial stiffness—often overlooking moment ...

Learn how to understand torque in a beam supported from one side! In this video, we break down the concepts of torque, force distribution, and rotational equilibrium using clear examples and ...

The motion of neutral molecules in a beam can be manipulated with inhomogeneous electric and magnetic fields. Static fields can be used to deflect or focus molecules, whereas time-varying fields can ...

Keeping high-power particle accelerators at peak performance requires advanced and precise control systems. For example, the primary research machine at the U.S. Department of Energy's Thomas ...
