Duke University researchers have discovered that machine learning algorithms can gain new degrees of transparency and insight into the properties of materials after teaching them known physics. Incorporating established physics into neural network algorithms helps…
University of Chicago scientists invented an entirely new way to make a solar cell: by etching holes in the top layer to make it porous. Above, a microscope image of a silicon membrane after the…
MIT researchers developed a trajectory-planning system for autonomous vehicles that enables them to travel from a starting point to a target location even when there are many different uncertainties in the environment. Credit: Jose-Luis Olivares,…
Nanyang Technological University, Singapore researchers have found a new way to create cement from waste. Creating renewable biocement entirely out of waste material Cement is a binder, a substance used in construction that hardens, sets,…
Researchers at MIT have discovered exactly how the tiny crystalline grains that make up metal form when subjected to an extreme deformation process. This can lead to ways of producing lighter, harder, and stronger versions…
A type of artificial intelligence called machine learning can help scale up manufacturing of perovskite solar cells. Perovskite materials would be superior to silicon in PV cells, but manufacturing such cells at scale is a…
A new study, published in Science on May 12th, 2022, found a new method to purify water that is 2400 times faster than even experimental carbon nanotube-based desalination devices. The future of desalination: Using a…
Physical reservoir computing can be used to perform high-speed processing for artificial intelligence with low power consumption. Researchers from Japan design a tunable physical reservoir device based on dielectric relaxation at an electrode-ionic liquid interface….
Scientists have improved the electrical performance of lithium-ion batteries in extreme cold with a new anode made with a bumpy carbon-based material. If you have an electric car and drive in the cold, you’re likely…
A new artificial intelligence system developed by Aston University researchers significantly outperforms all other methods. A new artificial intelligence system reads live camera footage and adapts the lights to compensate In 2014, Americans spent 6.9…
