Turning an old microwave into something new

Salvage the microwave oven transformer (MOT) by discharging the lethal capacitor, unwinding the high-voltage secondary coil, ...
PhD researcher Yijing Zhang has developed a wearable garment that allows pregnant women to monitor their unborn baby’s heartbeat at home without gel-based electrodes or direct skin contact. Using ...
Electronics keep shrinking, but silicon is starting to run into physical limits. To go smaller, researchers are turning to ...
Dielectric fluid is an important component in machining using Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM). Conventional dielectric fluids have disadvantages such as emit carbon dioxide and carbon mono oxide ...
Low-cost, durable electrolyzers (center) could use sustainable power from wind and solar to turn pure water into hydrogen gas that can fuel industrial plants as well as heavy vehicles. Credit: Yang ...
Electroencephalograms (EEGs) play a crucial role in diagnosing and managing conditions such as epilepsy, sleep disorders, and brain injuries. Traditional systems, however, rely on stiff metal ...
However, Li-ion batteries face performance and longevity challenges. Capacity loss stems from side reactions at the electrode–electrolyte interface, reducing cycle life. Thermal instability and ...
The last time I went to the local mall to shop for clothes, the first thing I did when I got home was run a load of laundry with all my new items. They were brand new so they didn’t look dirty, but I ...
Abstract: To solve the electrode wear compensation in die-sinking Electric Discharge Machining (EDM), a new electrode wear simulation method based on geometry model is put forward. The 3D unit grid ...
