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. ... >>

Random news from the Archive More than 10 thousand scientific articles retracted 31.12.2023 In 2023, it became clear that the problem of fake scientific articles was growing in scale. More than ten thousand publications were retracted, mostly from journals owned by Hindawi, the London subsidiary of Wiley. This is likely a result of the common practice of publishing bogus research. Over the past two decades, the most frequently retracted articles were those whose authors came from Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Russia, China and Egypt. Every year, millions of scientific articles appear in peer-reviewed journals, but sometimes they are retracted for various reasons. An example of this situation is the story of the American physicist Ranga Dias, who in March announced superconductivity at room temperature and high pressure, but the paper had to be retracted eight months later due to difficulties in repeating the results. Some studies are bogus from the start, creating "paper mills" - organizations that produce and sell bogus papers. Scientists often need publications to gain rankings, grants, and citations, and buying bogus papers seems easier than conducting real research. A Nature analysis found that about 1,5-2% of all papers published in 2022 appear to be fake, and in the biological and medical fields this proportion reaches three percent. In 2023, the number of retracted articles increased sharply, reaching more than ten thousand. Most of them belong to Hindawi magazine, which has previously been involved in scandals over "paper mills". Wiley, the publisher's owner, said it would stop using the Hindawi trademark and implement strict measures to verify the identity of editors and monitor manuscripts. These actions are aimed at eliminating fake articles from the publication process. However, fake Hindawi articles, despite reviews, received a significant number of citations, indicating the difficulty of combating this problem. Analysis of the Retraction Watch database shows that the total number of retracted articles has exceeded 50 thousand, and this figure continues to grow faster than the number of new publications. Countries leading in the number of retracted articles include Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Russia, China and Egypt. Approximately a quarter of the retracted articles were from scientific conferences. The problem of fake scientific articles remains relevant and requires urgent measures to tighten control over publications. Improving the process of verifying the authenticity of results and supporting initiatives aimed at detecting paper mills are necessary to maintain the trust of the scientific community and preserve the value of scientific publications.
