Engineer designs world’s most powerful handheld laser

March 15, 2023 by Geordie Torr

An engineer working at UK-based professional services firm PA Consulting’s Global Innovation and Technology Centre near Cambridge has been awarded the Guinness World Record title for Most Powerful Handheld Laser (prototype). Innovation expert Daniel Black produced the small, powerful laser, which is capable of cutting through wood, plastic and fabrics. The laser, which … [Read more...] about Engineer designs world’s most powerful handheld laser

First Hydrogen releases concept sketches for its next-generation zero-emission vehicle

March 8, 2023 by Geordie Torr

Vancouver- and London-based company First Hydrogen has released a series of sketches of its Generation II concept vehicle, which it says will be available with either fuel cell electric or battery electric drive trains. The sketches form part of the design process that the company, which specialises in zero-emission vehicles and green hydrogen production and distribution, is … [Read more...] about First Hydrogen releases concept sketches for its next-generation zero-emission vehicle

UCLA engineers design solar roofs for greenhouses

March 8, 2023 by Geordie Torr

A team of engineers has designed a solar panel that can absorb energy from sunlight without blocking the light, making it ideal for placing on the roof of a greenhouse. Tests revealed that plants grown under the new panels actually outperformed those in a conventional greenhouse. Solar panels can take up significant space and are often difficult to scale. This has led to the … [Read more...] about UCLA engineers design solar roofs for greenhouses

Integrating humans with AI in structural design

March 6, 2023 by Geordie Torr

Researchers at MIT have demonstrated that by combining an automated design system with regular evaluations by human engineers produced results that performed better than those designed by the automated system alone. The process was also completed more rapidly than a fully manual approach. Modern fabrication tools such as 3D printers can make structural materials in shapes … [Read more...] about Integrating humans with AI in structural design

NASA awards grant for design study for proposed lunar pipeline

March 1, 2023 by Geordie Torr

NASA’s Innovative Advanced Concepts programme has awarded a grant to space industrial company Lunar Resources and Wood, a consulting and engineering firm with expertise in terrestrial pipeline transportation systems to fund a nine-month feasibility study for the Lunar South Pole Oxygen Pipeline (LSPoP), a proposed pipeline to transport gaseous oxygen from an extraction site at … [Read more...] about NASA awards grant for design study for proposed lunar pipeline
