Ventilation of the body under clothing

15.08.2023

Japanese inventor Kazuya Shibata has introduced a new device that can provide ventilation to the body even under a layer of clothing. This small, innovative device attaches to a waistband and periodically creates a movement on the inside of a T-shirt, similar to the movements we make when waving our arms in the heat to let in fresh air.

The Sibat device provides the desired ventilation through a flexible mechanical actuator that quickly flexes and unbends by pushing a piece of fabric. The edge of the T-shirt, according to the concept, is attached with a magnet.

The device has a switch and possibly a regulator that allows you to adjust the speed of the "waving".

While this device may be noticeable when using it, it may be useful in hot weather when even wearing clothing can be uncomfortable.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Spiders, feeding on graphene, weave the strongest web 11.09.2017

The web is already strong enough to hold small insects that have fallen into it, but thanks to the discovery of scientists in the future, it may be able to withstand the weight of a person.

Nicola Pugno and other scientists from Trent University (Italy) conducted a study during which graphene and carbon nanotubes were added to the drinking water of spiders.

When the test spiders weaved the web, as they always did, it turned out to be five times stronger than normal - and can be compared with carbon fiber and Kevlar, the strongest materials on Earth.

Punyo noted that scientists already knew about the biominerals present in the protein matrices and hard tissues of insects, which provide great strength and durability to their mandibles (upper jaws) and teeth; thus, researchers were more interested in whether it is possible to artificially improve the quality of spider silk by introducing various nanomaterials into its protein structures.

So far, these are only the first steps in the study of webs woven by spiders using graphene and nanotubes, and Punyo's results should be rechecked. It is noted that if they are confirmed, such an improved web can be used, for example, for the manufacture of ropes, cables, etc.
