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.

Life at the wind turbine 01.09.2011

A windmill in the sea creates a new habitat and enhances biodiversity. On land, not many people like wind farms - they are very noisy during operation. Therefore, now in the northern countries of Europe (and it is there that alternative energy is advancing by leaps and bounds) they are being removed farther into the sea: there the wind is fresher, and there are no people. And how will windmills be perceived by marine life?

A two-year study on this topic was carried out at a power plant near Emond aan Zee by Dutch scientists led by Professor Han Lindebum from Wageningen University. The construction of an artificial reef and the installation of windmill supports did not affect the bottom organisms. On the other hand, all kinds of foulers received a significant space for life - both the slopes of the reef and the elements of the supports were overgrown with shells, anemones and other similar creatures. Crabs also settled there.

Around the turbines, a lot of fish were bred, including commercial species like cod. The reason is clear: fishing is prohibited in the area of ​​​​the power plant, so the fish have mastered the shelter. Some species of birds that avoid turbines can be recognized as more or less affected. However, other birds, on the contrary, like to fish near the power plant. As for the victims among them from a collision with the blades, they turned out to be very few.

In general, scientists note, if you design offshore wind farms wisely, then it is quite possible to avoid unpleasant consequences for the environment.
