For driving in the rain, it's preferable that the raindrops roll or bounce off the windshield instead of coating it or even freezing. A team of engineers in the McKelvey School of Engineering at ...

In recent years, with the more demanding requirements of space volume and fatigue life of transmission systems such as aircraft, transmission system power components are required to have the ...

Prof. Gal Shmuel of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology has developed an innovative theory that enables precise control of heat conduction in ways ...

Artistic visualization of a crystalline rod made of the semimetal ZrTe 5. There is a heat gradient from one end to the other. In its center, giant oscillations in its heat conduction are toggled by ...

When we think about heat traveling through a material, we typically picture diffusive transport, a process that transfers heat from high-temperature to low-temperature as particles and molecules bump ...
