Nanoscale maze-like magnetic patterns form reliably across strained substrates, removing a key bottleneck for faster, more efficient data-center optical links. (Nanowerk News) A collaborative team has ...

"Chemical rockets that we use today, even with the extra speed boost from flying by planets, or from swinging by the sun for a boost, just don't have the ability to scale to useful interstellar speeds ...

Microscope images could be obtained much more quickly -- rather than one pixel at a time -- thanks to a new imaging method for neutral atomic beam microscopes. It could ultimately lead to engineers ...

Abstract: Curved beams are frequently used structural elements in traditional and emerging fields of civil and mechanical engineering with usual requirements of vibration and deformation analyses ...

For the first time ever, humanity has changed the trajectory of a planetary object, reducing the asteroid Dimorphos’s orbital period. Reading time 3 minutes The results are in from NASA’s Double ...

We give a simple proof of the well known fact that the approximate eigenvalues provided by the Rayleigh-Ritz variational method are increasingly accurate upper bounds to the exact ones. To this end, ...

ABSTRACT: The present analysis demonstrates the thermal effect on vibrations of a symmetric, non-homoge- neous trapezoidal plate with parabolically varying thickness in both directions. The variation ...
