The best science is not always the best engineering when it comes to building codes. It’s also a problem across the US, as an engineer who works on disaster resilience explains.
A team of scientists has developed a method for creating a new class of plastic materials that are potentially more recyclable than single-use plastics.
Art and science combine in this engineering course to let students turn their brainwaves into creative works.
In an engineering course at UC Davis, students learn all the nuances that go into brewing ‘a truly excellent cup of coffee.’
You can’t bring your AC to space, unfortunately, but innovative flow boiling and condensation research might lead to lighter, more efficient heating and cooling on spacecraft.
Tower cranes come in many different sizes, and many weigh more than 100 tonnes.
People aren’t the only ones harmed by heat waves. The hotter it gets, the harder it is for machines to keep their cool.
Artist Janet Echelman explains how she collaborates with engineers to create massive sculptures that have changed city landscapes and inspired people around the world.
With many employers switching to remote work, two engineering experts explain the feasibility of converting office buildings to residential spaces.
While the nuclear fusion scientific breakthrough is indeed historic, it’s important to pause and reflect on the way ahead for fusion energy.
Dramatic improvements in computing, sensors and submersible engineering are making it possible for researchers to ramp up data collection from the oceans while also keeping people out of harm’s way.
Deep underwater, the Titan submersible would have been crushed in less than a second once a defect cracked the hull.
The costs of the materials is less than one cent per lens.
Many speak fondly of how Barry Dwolatzky took them into a derelict disco and enthusiastically explained the tech co-working space he envisioned there.
Offshore wind turbines are getting bigger and bigger – and many of them now float – here’s how we stop them drifting away.
AI is poised to reshape parts of US culture and society. Have tech developments raced ahead of our ability to understand the consequences?
Scientists used Lego to build a bioprinter capable of printing human tissue samples.
February earthquakes wreaked havoc across Turkey and Syria, killing tens of thousands of people. An engineer originally from Turkey describes what kept some buildings functional while others collapsed.
