Vibration mitigation: New Force-Network based granular damping technology
Vibration damping plays a crucial role in enhancing human comfort, safety, and well-being across various aspects of daily life. In transportation, effective vibration damping in vehicles such as cars, trains, and airplanes can reduce the transmission of engine and road vibrations to passengers, minimising discomfort and fatigue during travel. One of the main challenges in developing new vibration-damping systems is […]

Strains of honeybee viruses provide intelligence in the battle against global bee extinction
The large-scale death of bees could culminate in an ecological and agricultural disaster. This may present as significantly reduced wild and domestic flora, as well as drastically reduced availability of various fruits, vegetables and nuts. There are several pressures on the global bee population, e.g., use of pesticides, destruction of habitat and infection with pathogen-carrying mites. Professor Ivan Toplak, an […]
