New research from the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory, in collaboration with The Ohio State University ...

The future of earthquake-proofing might just be a simple cylinder filled with steel balls.

As you all should know by now, batteries are one of the biggest bottlenecks preventing the advancement of our mobile tech. We can stuff as many powerful processors and as much memory as we want into ...

The RPI team developed a polymer film infused with a special chalcogenide perovskite compound that produces electricity when squeezed or stressed. The device could be used in consumer goods, such as a ...

RMIT University researchers have developed a flexible nylon-film device that generates electricity from compression and keeps working even after being run over by a car multiple times, opening the ...

Energy Fields examines the science of vibration, sound and kinetic energy detection through art. Energy Fields examines approaches to vibration, sound, and kinetic energy shared by artists and ...

# Energy Harvesting is a green technology that captures (or “harvests”) wasted energy and converts it into electricity. The ubiquitous vibrations that surround us are one of the promising sources for ...

The waste energy generated by human activities could be used to power piezoelectrics. Study: Textured Lead-Free Ceramic with High Thermal Stability and Electrical Quality Factor. Image Credit: ...

Scientists have found a way to make hydrogen peroxide from vibration instead of electricity or light, using motion and water to create a clean oxidant. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Hydrogen peroxide is one of ...
