What is a wind rose?

This is a vector diagram showing the strength and direction of the wind in a given location based on long-term observations. The diagram has the form of a flower or a multi-beam star, the direction of the rays of which shows the direction of the winds, and the length of the rays indicates their frequency.

Solidification of bulk substances 30.04.2024

There are quite a few mysteries in the world of science, and one of them is the strange behavior of bulk materials. They may behave like a solid but suddenly turn into a flowing liquid. This phenomenon has attracted the attention of many researchers, and we may finally be getting closer to solving this mystery. Imagine sand in an hourglass. It usually flows freely, but in some cases its particles begin to get stuck, turning from a liquid to a solid. This transition has important implications for many areas, from drug production to construction. Researchers from the USA have attempted to describe this phenomenon and come closer to understanding it. In the study, the scientists conducted simulations in the laboratory using data from bags of polystyrene beads. They found that the vibrations within these sets had specific frequencies, meaning that only certain types of vibrations could travel through the material. Received ... >>

Implanted brain stimulator 30.04.2024

In recent years, scientific research in the field of neurotechnology has made enormous progress, opening new horizons for the treatment of various psychiatric and neurological disorders. One of the significant achievements was the creation of the smallest implanted brain stimulator, presented by a laboratory at Rice University. Called Digitally Programmable Over-brain Therapeutic (DOT), this innovative device promises to revolutionize treatments by providing more autonomy and accessibility to patients. The implant, developed in collaboration with Motif Neurotech and clinicians, introduces an innovative approach to brain stimulation. It is powered through an external transmitter using magnetoelectric power transfer, eliminating the need for wires and large batteries typical of existing technologies. This makes the procedure less invasive and provides more opportunities to improve patients' quality of life. In addition to its use in treatment, resist ... >>

The perception of time depends on what one is looking at 29.04.2024

Research in the field of the psychology of time continues to surprise us with its results. Recent discoveries by scientists from George Mason University (USA) turned out to be quite remarkable: they discovered that what we look at can greatly influence our sense of time. During the experiment, 52 participants took a series of tests, estimating the duration of viewing various images. The results were surprising: the size and detail of the images had a significant impact on the perception of time. Larger, less cluttered scenes created the illusion of time slowing down, while smaller, busier images gave the feeling of time speeding up. Researchers suggest that visual clutter or detail overload can make it difficult to perceive the world around us, which in turn can lead to faster perception of time. Thus, it was shown that our perception of time is closely related to what we look at. Larger and smaller ... >>

New windows regulate temperature and light 31.07.2002

In a few years, traditional glass and plastic windows will be replaced by liquid crystal structures that can independently regulate the temperature and degree of lighting in the premises.

A research team at Research Frontiers has created "chameleon" windows that are controlled by electrical signals. The new windows use a unique technology of light-absorbing microscopic particles - "light barriers". Millions of these particles are placed between transparent planes and have the ability to move freely.

The coating, which is like a film placed on top of them, is a conductor. When an electrical voltage is applied to the structure, the microparticles organize themselves in such a way that light can pass through the device unhindered. In the absence of voltage, the particles "disorganize" and the window becomes impenetrable. This technology can be used not only for windows, but also for ski goggles, car mirrors, etc.

According to the developers, their only competitors are manufacturers of liquid crystal and electrochromic windows. The current liquid-crystal window glass is considered one of the most "intimate", as it allows a milky-opaque lighting mode, when an illusion of thick fog is created that is comfortable for a person on a sunny day. A feature of a multilayer electrochromic window is that its light transmission depends on the behavior of the ionic layer, which is controlled by electrical voltage.

Electrochromic windows are so promising that, according to the forecasts of the US Department of Energy, industrial production of more formatted electrochromic glasses will begin this year, and their price in mass production will not exceed $15-20 per 1 m2.
