A construction 3D printer gantry is helping to build a Houston home that will be the first multistory 3D-printed structure in the U.S., also incorporating wood framing in a new hybrid design.
The first multistory 3D printed structure in the United States
Overcoming a major challenge faced by the semiconductor industry with a modified household microwave oven
Credit:Marte Finsmyr and Léa Bouffaut. The illustration shows how DAS works. An interrogator (a) sends a laser pulse from a ground station through the fiber optic cable.The cable has defects (b) which underwater sounds slightly displace.This sends back a signal that the interrogator can interpret as acoustic data over regularly spaced intervals or channels (c).
Yes we can monitor whales with existing fiber optic cables
Bouklas Lab/Provided Micrograph of a biohybrid composite material developed at Cornell shows cells (red) seeded on the fibrous domains (yellow) of collagen. The material mimics natural tissue in its softness, toughness, and ability to recruit cells and keep them alive.
A biohybrid material that performs like cartilage and could help grow new tissue

New cost-effective method for carbon capture from coal-fired power plants in particular
Charissa King-O'Brien/Provided The Bovay Civil Infrastructure Laboratory Complex has a new tenant: a roughly 6,000-pound industrial robot capable of 3D printing large-scale structures that could make construction more sustainable.
A 6,000 pound 3D-printing robot could transform the construction industry
Artist Ella Marushenko’s interpretation of the Josephson Diode effect. The image shows a computer chip made from a few layers of atoms (blue and white spheres) comprising the Josephson Diode. The green pairs of spheres represent superconducting pairs of electrons moving in one direction, while the orange spheres represent normal conducting single electrons moving in the opposite direction across the Josephson Diode.
