Scientists used nanoscale gold metamaterials to supercharge heat transfer across tiny gaps, achieving up to four times more ...

When temperatures soar, so do heart attacks. Now, a lab experiment explains just how temperatures climbing into Fahrenheit’s three-digits can cause ischemia and potential heart attacks, all while ...

An interdisciplinary research team including mechanical science and engineering professor Mickey Clemon in The Grainger College of Engineering at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign is ...

A Purdue University experiment was sent to the International Space Station on Tuesday to collect data toward understanding how reduced gravity affects condensation. The experiment launched on Northrop ...

Synthetic quartz may help reduce the carbon footprint of industries that produce things like glass, steel, and cement. In recent experiments, Federal University of Technology, Zurich, engineer ...

When a spacecraft enters a thick atmosphere at a high velocity, it rapidly compresses the gas in front of it. This creates temperatures high enough to ionize the gas molecules into a hot, dense plasma ...

The US Air Force (USAF) hosted a heat pipe experiment on its most recent Boeing X-37B Orbital Test Vehicle (OTV) mission, which could help the service learn how to better manage heat with spacecraft.

One of the biggest pieces of advice experts give for dressing in the heat is simple: avoid dark clothing. And a recent experiment from the National Weather Service shows just how dramatic the ...

Erik Spoelstra said he believes everyone is making the Brooklyn, Memphis road trip this week, where the Heat will play its second and third preseason games against the Nets and Grizzlies. He will have ...
