A European research team involving scientists from DESY and Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH) has developed a novel way for converting mechanical energy into electricity – by using water ...

Scientists have found a way to significantly boost “blue energy,” which generates electricity from the mixing of saltwater and freshwater. By coating nanopores with lipid molecules that create a ...

Northwestern University scientists have made a new contribution to understanding a long-standing phenomenon called static electricity. In their most recent research, the researchers found that such ...

Discover the fascinating world of static electricity through simple balloon experiments. You'll learn how static charges build up through friction, how they attract or repel objects, and see everyday ...

Researchers at the University of Konstanz have uncovered a new mechanism of sliding friction: resistance to motion that arises without any mechanical contact, driven purely by collective magnetic ...

Researchers found that cycling water in nanopores of water-repellent silicon can convert mechanical energy into measurable electricity. (Nanowerk News) A European research team involving scientists ...
