Why is a 660-ton steel ball installed in a Taiwanese skyscraper?

Usually giant pendulums are installed in large clock towers. But the 660-ton steel pendulum in Taiwan's Taipei 101 skyscraper performs a different role - an inertial vibration damper. It is located between the 87th and 91st floors of a 101-storey building with a total height of more than 500 meters and serves to reduce the risk of collapse during an earthquake or hurricane.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

The influence of a child's nutrition on his future character 17.01.2023

Scientists from the Institute of Military Epidemiology in Oslo have found that the nutrition of a mother during pregnancy and a child under the age of seven years can be associated with the character and mental health of the child.

A total of 40 pairs of mothers and children were included in the study. Mothers filled out questionnaires when the child was six months old, 566 months old, three years old, seven years old and eight years old.

The analysis found that a healthy maternal diet was associated with higher scores on conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and imagination, and lower scores on neuroticism in children.

Healthy eating for mothers during pregnancy and for children between the ages of six months and seven years was associated with lower depression scores in children at age eight, but the researchers did not find a significant association between diet and anxiety. However, diet at age seven had a stronger effect on the risk of developing depression than diet during infancy.

The authors noted that all participating mothers were non-smokers and regularly took multivitamins and folic acid supplements, so they do not represent the general population. To date, no studies have reported an association between early childhood nutrition and five major personality traits.
