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. ... >>

flu breath 21.01.2018

Influenza spreads by airborne droplets - there are viral particles in aerosol droplets that fly out of the patient's mouth, and by inhaling them, we become infected. Where do these microdroplets with a viral filling come from? Obviously, when the patient sneezes and coughs; we instinctively try to move away from such people. However, in fact, coughing and sneezing is not at all necessary: viruses scatter from the patient, even when he is just breathing.

Researchers at the University of Maryland followed nearly XNUMX people with the flu who had symptoms either recently, a day ago, or two days ago. Patients talked, coughed, sneezed, or simply breathed calmly, and the air that came out of their mouths for half an hour was collected and analyzed for viruses; moreover, the presence of the virus was assessed both by its RNA and by whole virus particles.

In about half of the cases when the air sample was taken without coughing and sneezing, the aerosol particles contained a sufficient amount of viral RNA, and most of the "respiratory" aerosols contained whole viral particles. That is, as mentioned above, a person with the flu spreads the virus around him simply by breathing, without any coughing or sneezing. Moreover, the authors argue that when sneezing, the virus does not appear in the air as much as one might expect, that is, sneezing, compared to normal breathing, does not fill the surrounding air with the virus very much.

The new data will help create better mathematical models to describe the spread of influenza (and likely other airborne viruses); such models will enable epidemiologists to more accurately assess the likelihood and severity of seasonal epidemics.

As for more everyday things, even if a person manages not to sneeze or cough, especially in the first days of illness, this is not at all a reason to leave the house: even just breathing in a crowded place, he can infect a bunch of people.
