Johnson Matthey, Beijing, China, has signed an investment agreement with the Jiading District in Shanghai to help accelerate the hydrogen economy in China. At a signing ceremony in Sonning, UK, JM and the Shanghai Jiading District announced plans to build a new catalyst coated membrane (CCM) production facility, providing CCM production capability for multiple proton […]
Raisoni College of Engineering, India, has published a critical review of significant performance and safety issues that arise from the deterioration of reinforced concrete (RC) structural components brought on by ageing processes and high stress occurrences. Shape memory alloys (SMAs), one of the options for restoring such components, have special qualities including recovering inelastic strain […]
In this video from engineering.com see why changing gears manually with a clutch and gearbox–a simple, robust, and reliable power transmission technology that costs less, weighs less, and engages the driver with the vehicle in a way no automated system can–is going away.
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory staff scientist Maurice Garcia-Sciveres is leading a collaboration with other Berkeley Lab scientists, and researchers from UC Berkeley and Sandia National Laboratories, to develop powerful light-sensing microchips. The team is leveraging their expertise in nanomaterials and integrated circuit design to develop new materials and techniques for smaller, faster, and more energy-efficient […]
Cold-walled (double-walled water-cooled) systems were the first generation of plasma nitriding furnaces. This technology is also a vacuum-based process but employs the principle of glow discharge to provide energy for heating and nitriding at one time. Therefore, the independent control of the temperature stability and the nitriding intensity is not possible because both processes are […]
