A step towards fully computerized device-level engineering
The future will witness a gradual shift in which computational models will play a progressively larger role in identifying new materials for specific purposes.
Lessons learned from the front lines of climate change
How can scientists studying different key foundational species under threat learn from one another to address declines in ecosystems?
Tourism, water, and gender
Women face greater health and safety risks when water and sanitation systems are compromised, but this has never been explored in relation to tourism.
The Fukushima Effect at Home: New roles for local actors in Japan’s energy policy
Post Fukushima, Japan’s energy network has expanded dramatically to include thousands of small renewable power companies which create many small solar, wind, biomass, and geothermal plants.
How power systems can be operated using only renewable power generation
Implementing fully-inverter-based power systems on a large scale may be possible using wind and solar power.
Quantum computers will help us explore life, design new drugs, and more
New quantum algorithms will have dramatic impact in computational molecular biology and bioinformatics and promise to impact a number of life science applications.
Combining nanoparticles with new X-ray technologies could revolutionize imaging diagnosis
A new study explores how metal nanoparticles designed for new X-ray imaging technologies can improve the diagnosis of diseases, as well as understand the underlying cellular processes.
Predicting solute transport in surface and subsurface water
Pollutant transport in water bodies is a complex process — computational models called FADEs provide an accurate modelling solution.
Dissecting molecular vibration
The local vibrational mode theory has raised vibrational spectroscopy to a new level.
