As their name suggests, nanocrystals are tiny particles. These particles are crystalline elements with at least one dimension smaller than 1,000 nanometres, where a nanometre is one thousand-millionth ...

Predict dynamic behaviors in a physics system in a way that's computationally efficient and adaptable to a range of scenarios.

Learn about the source of airborne microplastics, which were not, for the most part, introduced into the air by the ocean, as previous studies seem to suggest.

So, when scientists noticed something unusual happening inside the accelerator —a strange “ghost” affecting particle movement— they knew it wasn’t something to ignore. Mapping and understanding this ...

To improve the fast and stable walking ability of a humanoid robot, this paper proposes a gait optimization method based on a parallel comprehensive learning particle swarm optimizer (PCLPSO ... robot ...

Lagos State Police Command said reports that its personnel have restricted movement and barred journalists from the state house of assembly are false. The assembly has been engulfed in a ...

But what exactly does it involve? And how can you take part? The specific rules vary but at the core the 'no buy' movement is simple: you buy only what you need. For most participating ...

A curious connection between an ancient supernova and virus diversification in one of Earth's biggest lakes means that crazy cosmic events may have had more influence on our planet than we thought.

While traditional political parties around the world are struggling to appear relevant, the anti-vaccine movement is one of the new anti-establishment political forces that is filling the vacuum ...

And so, right outside its most ambitious experiment, stands Shiva, the cosmic dancer, as if to remind scientists that the universe is not built on rigid equations alone, but on movement ...

It's risky, considering how easy it is to botch a simulation game. There are many different varieties and all game players have their preferences, but which ones are the best of the best?

The SPH simulation tested the performance of vegetation in reducing the wave force, slowing down the debris movement, and lowering the wave height, using three indices — Reduced Fluid Force ...
