FEATURED STORY | | Electrical engineers in Germany have demonstrated a new kind of building block for digital integrated circuits. Their experiments show that future computer chips could be based on 3-D arrangements of nanometer-scale magnets instead of transistors. In a 3-D stack of nanomagnets, the researchers have implemented a so-called "majority" logic gate, which could serve as a programmable switch in a digital circuit. | |
| | | | | This free webinar will: • discuss the theory underlying the Molecular Flow interface in COMSOL • show models of various vacuum flow processes • also discuss approaches to modeling other types of rarefied gas flows. | | | |
| VIDEO | | Michael Grätzel's laboratory in Switzerland is producing hydrogen fuel from sunlight and water. By combining a pair of solar cells made with a mineral called perovskite and low cost electrodes, scientists have obtained a 12.3% conversion efficiency from solar energy to hydrogen, a record using earth-abundant materials as opposed to rare metals. | | | | |
| NEWS | | Mathematicians from Brown Univ. have introduced a new element of uncertainty into an equation used to describe the behavior of fluid flows. Ironically, allowing uncertainty into a mathematical equation that models fluid flows makes the equation much more capable of correctly reflecting the natural world, including the formation, strength, and position of air masses and fronts in the atmosphere. | | | | |

| NEWS | | Researchers at the Univ. of Michigan have described a new approach to discovering potential cancer treatments that requires a fraction of the time needed for more traditional methods. They used the platform to identify a novel antibody that is undergoing further investigation as a potential treatment for breast, ovarian and other cancers.

| VIDEO | | The atmospheric conditions associated with the unprecedented drought currently afflicting California are "very likely" linked to human-caused climate change, according to Stanford Univ. scientists. The team used a combination of computer simulations and statistical techniques to show that a persistent region of high atmospheric pressure hovering over the Pacific Ocean was likely to form from modern greenhouse gas concentrations.

| PRODUCT | | At Powtech 2014, Malvern Instruments launched Hydro Sight, an imaging accessory for the Mastersizer 3000 particle size analyzer, that allows quicker and easier development and application of robust particle sizing methods. In addition, Malvern launched the Hydro SV, a new wet dispersion unit for the Mastersizer 3000. | | | | |
| PRODUCT | | Schaefer Inc. has unveiled new turnkey inverter systems using its Series IT of single or three-phase switch mode inverter systems with a power range from 6 kVA to 90 kVA. These highly reliable, fully-customizable "built-to-project" dc/ac pure sine wave inverters are fully isolated, using a switch mode inverter with a rectifier at input and a transformer at the output. | | | |
