Weaning off crude

SHANGHAI – From Pudong International Airport, the ride to the center of this city 30 kilometers away took all of 10 minutes on the maglev train. Maglev is magnetic levitation or electromagnetic ...
China targets a 600 km/h operating speed for its new electromagnetic levitation train prototype. China is making significant progress in its mission to launch a maglev train capable of reaching 600 ...
SAN FRANCISCO – The San Francisco 49ers have been riddled with injuries in recent years, and there is a theory about why. A viral theory, albeit unproven, says the 49ers’ unusually high number of soft ...
Deendayal Port Authority, Kandla, has successfully commissioned and tested an indigenously developed mobility solution for cargo transportation. The prototype of the futuristic and advanced ...
Conventional conveyor systems have served manufacturing for decades, but their mechanical limits become more visible at higher speeds. Wear, friction and vibration increase with velocity. Belts ...
Abstract: During high-speed operation and long-term service, the electromagnetic levitation (EML) system of electromagnetic suspension (EMS) high-speed maglev trains faces critical challenges in ...
Puma’s final installment of its partnership with Rombaut is almost here. In a teaser image, the German sportswear company released a look at the duo’s upcoming Speedcat sneaker with the now iconic ...
An electromagnetic device can gently sort cells by levitating them to different heights. It looks like a magic trick: cells at the bottom of a liquid medium begin levitating, then hovering at a ...
Stanford Medicine scientists report the development of a new device that relies on electromagnetic levitation to help them gently sort living cells, with no need for physical contact. The innovation, ...
This week in stories we’re covering at The Debrief, a team of physicists is using light to alter the magnetic nature of matter at room temperature, revealing quantum effects once thought impossible.
