Is ambient humidity sabotaging your bakes? I ran a home experiment on flour's water absorption and then did the math so you don't have to.

There’s a huge variety of ways that we can potentially generate all the power we need for tiny medical sensors or other devices with minimal power needs. But there’s often a big gap between those ...

Humans, microbes (bacteria, viruses, fungi), and plants all react differently to dry ambient conditions. Microbes adapt quickly by shrinking down, forming thicker membranes, and becoming dormant.

The company applies an additional membrane to its low-cost wireless passive sensors to measure humidity conditions, then transmits that and other sensor data wirelessly from trucks, stores, or ...

Gas Turbines (GTs) operate at a constant volume of (hopefully) very clean air. It’s the density of this air however (weight per unit volume) that holds the key if we want to keep our Gas Turbine Power ...

The intent of an accelerated aging protocol is to predict and subsequently verify real-time aging behavior of a product and packaging system. A robust study is built on the foundation of prerequisite ...
