Although we’re living in the twenty-first century, there are still many dangers in our workplaces. For certain industries, such as the construction, manufacturing and industrial industries, the risks ...

American researchers have measured a tiny electrical voltage by exploiting Earth's magnetic field in the planet's rotational motion. This discovery, though modest, revives a scientific debate nearly ...

For nearly two centuries, scientists have wondered if Earth’s rotation through its magnetic field could produce electricity. The idea was first tested by Michael Faraday in 1832, but his experiments ...

Much of the abundant mechanical energy around us is irregular and oscillatory and can be somewhat difficult to efficiently tap into. Typical energy harvesting systems tend to be built for low power ...

Call us eristic, if you want, but we cannot deny the love for a good controversy. While we do not encourage conflict per se, we are drawn to lively discussions, as those are the ones that tend to be ...

In a rare non-computing related patent filing discovered on Thursday, Apple proposes a wind turbine that generates electricity from converting heat energy rather than rotational energy created by the ...

The construction industry must find a balance between safety and individual autonomy: Proper education about the risks of rotational motion, TBIs, and more. Safety systems with the aim of reducing the ...
