WASHINGTON — Moving away from reliance on large, ground-based radars in favor of a networked layer of smaller passive sensors could “substantially improve” US air and missile defenses and decrease ...

For home HVAC systems, heat pumps seem to be the way of the future. When compared to electric heating they can be three to four times more efficient, and they don’t directly burn fossil fuels. They ...

A team of researchers report in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on a new graphene-based sensor design that, through machine learning, was able to develop a near-human sense of ...

ABSTRACT: Objectives: Mass transport deposits (MTDs) often have a certain control effect on the development of river channels and the transformation of topography and geomorphology. Methods: In order ...
