3-D Printed Microfibers Could Provide Structure For Artificially Grown Body Part
A team of Penn State engineers believe they have a way to create the structural framework for growing living tissue using an off-the-shelf 3-D printer.
New Desalination Method Offers Low-Energy Alternative To Purify Salty Water
According to Penn State researchers, a new desalination technique is able to remove salt from water using less energy than previous methods.
A Water-Saving Solution Wins MRS Competition
Their technology, called “LESS,” reduces the amount of flush volume required to remove solids and residue from toilet bowls by 90 percent and could improve hygiene and save significant water resources in water-scarce environments.
Four-Dimensional Physics In Two Dimensions
For the first time, physicists have built a two-dimensional experimental system that allows them to study the physical properties of materials that were theorized to exist only in four-dimensional space.
