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. ... >>

Sandy beaches under threat 03.03.2020

Scientists warn: if humanity does not reduce greenhouse gas emissions, 50% of the world's sandy beaches will go under water or be destroyed by erosion. This will cause huge damage to the economy, primarily tourism, and will also make coastal regions more vulnerable to natural disasters. Australia will be hardest hit.

Due to rising sea levels, the area of beaches is shrinking. If humanity does not reduce greenhouse gas emissions and slow global warming, by 2100 the world will have lost half of its sandy beaches, according to a new study.

The researchers' conclusions are based on an analysis of satellite images taken since 1984. Having identified a trend over three decades, they extrapolated it into the future, as it will be according to two climate scenarios.

The worst-case scenario assumes that greenhouse gas emissions will continue to rise, and that melting permafrost will release significant amounts of methane, exacerbating climate change. In this case, by the end of the century, half of the beaches will disappear due to sea level rise and erosion. Australia will be hardest hit, with 15 km of sandy coastline disappearing by the end of the century. It is followed by Canada, Chile and the USA. The top ten also includes Mexico, China, Russia, Argentina, India and Brazil.

According to the second and slightly less severe scenario, greenhouse gas emissions will gradually decrease, but not at such a rapid rate as prescribed in the Paris climate agreement. As a result, average temperatures will rise by about 3°C, and the area of beaches will be reduced by about a third.

The disappearance of beaches will cause serious damage to the economy of entire countries and regions dependent on tourism. In addition, they will become more vulnerable to natural disasters. This is especially worrisome, given that the regions with the most vulnerable coasts have high population densities.

Large-scale engineering structures could be the solution to the problem, but most countries cannot afford them. This means that the best way to prevent the loss of beaches is to stop the planet from warming further as soon as possible.
