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 ... >>

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. ... >>
| Random news from the Archive Polymer additive to increase oil recovery
18.08.2022
Scientists in Kazakhstan have developed a polymer additive. It will help improve the efficiency of aqueous solutions used in oil production
The synthesized terpolymer has an "anti-electrolyte" effect, increases the viscosity of salt water and does not lose its properties even at high temperatures.
"A feature of our thermopolymer is its heat resistance, which allows to preserve the astringent properties of the solutions used in polymer flooding and affects the increase in oil recovery," the author of the project, Iskander Gusenov, explained to Kazinform.
The Kazakh state oil company Kazmunaigas is in preliminary talks with the trading division of the Azerbaijani state company SOCAR on permission to sell 1,5 million tons of Kazakh oil per year through the Azerbaijani pipeline, through which oil will be delivered to the Turkish Mediterranean port of Ceyhan.
