Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Germany and the UK will be connected by a high-voltage cable 1,4 GW 29.07.2022

Another step has been taken towards the construction of a 1,4 GW high-voltage cable connecting Germany with the UK. A consortium of 20 lenders led by the European Investment Bank (EIB) has agreed to provide €400m ($406,5m) for the NeuConnect interconnector project, a €2,8bn high-voltage DC link connecting Germany to the UK.

"The investor consortium is led by French investor Meridiam, Allianz Capital Partners and Japan's Kansai Electric Power," the EIB said in a statement. There are other banks besides the EIB, notably the UK Infrastructure Bank and the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC).

Construction on the project should begin before the end of this year, and completion is scheduled for 2028.

The predominantly submarine cable will be 725 km long, with a power of 1,4 GW and a DC voltage of 525 kV. It will connect a Tennet-operated converter station near Fedderwarden in Germany to the National Grid-operated UK network via a converter station on the Isle of Grein.

The German conglomerate Siemens will build the converter stations, while cable manufacturer Prysmian will lay the cable.

In September 2020, Tennet and National Grid announced a cooperation agreement to explore the possibility of connecting Dutch and British wind farms to the power systems of both countries using underwater electrical cables called interconnectors.

Under the terms of the cooperation agreement, the two grid operators will explore the development of a Multi-Purpose Interconnector (MPI) to connect up to 4 gigawatts of UK and Dutch offshore wind power simultaneously between the British and Dutch power grids, providing an additional 2 GW of capacity.
