“Material scientists have predicted and built two new magnetic materials, atom-by-atom, using high-throughput computational models. The success marks a new era for the large-scale design of new magnetic materials at unprecedented speed. Although magnets abound in everyday life, they are …
“Taking advantage of the generator of trays that I uploaded previously I have created a stackable and customizable system that allows to use any container for the trays and to be able to extract them easily with a flap to …
“Northwestern University mechanical engineering professor Todd Murphey and his team are engineering robots that one might say could make robotic assistance as seamless as “humanly” possible. With support from the National Science Foundation (NSF), the team is using novel algorithmic …
“This tutorial shows a way of designing a Heart Diseases Detector using Nexys Video board. This project combines electronics and medicine in order to obtain a product that detects hearth diseases. The results of this project don’t compare with …
“Researchers have solved a problem hindering development of highly sensitive optical devices made of a material called graphene, an advance that could bring applications from imaging and displays to sensors and high-speed communications. Graphene is an extremely thin layer of …
“The experimental realization of ultrathin graphene – which earned two scientists from the University of Manchester, U.K., the Nobel Prize in physics in 2010 – has ushered in a new age in materials research. What started with graphene has evolved to …
“The following are instructions on how to build your very own spirometer!! We had to build this for an engineering class at my university. Our project uses a pressure transducer, arduino, and a switch to compute the change in breath …
“I have developed a new version of MightyWatt, the R3! It looks almost the same on the outside but is very different on the inside. It addresses shortcomings of the revision 2 and adds some new functions. But first, what …
“An easy way to generate brackets to attach any fan to any PCB board. A list of pre-defined brackets included. The script was initially meant to generate fan brackets for the RAMPS board but I decided to make it fully …
News ‘Neuron-reading’ Nanowires Could Accelerate Development of Drugs to Treat Neurological Diseases
“A team led by engineers at the University of California San Diego has developed nanowires that can record the electrical activity of neurons in fine detail. The new nanowire technology could one day serve as a platform to screen drugs …
