(PhysOrg.com) -- Sometimes the simplest of things become complicated and complex when looked at more closely. Gravity is but one example. Another is the mechanics involved in creating a crumpled ball ...
(Nanowerk Spotlight) How often have you crumpled a sheet of paper in frustration and thrown it into the bin without further thought? You'll be amazed to hear that researchers – inspired by a trash can ...
When an automobile’s engine is improperly lubricated, it can be a major hit to the pocketbook and the environment. For the average car, 15 percent of the fuel consumption is spent overcoming friction ...
With its high theoretical capacity and low electrochemical potential, Li would be the ideal anode for Li-ion batteries. However, practical use of the Li anode has been hindered by its tendency for ...
Lithium metal-based batteries have the potential to turn the battery industry upside down. With the theoretically ultra-high capacity of lithium metal used by itself, this new type of battery could ...
A brain and a crisp sheet of office paper may seem to have little in common. But if someone crumples the paper into a ball, they’re holding the solution to one of the most longstanding mysteries of ...
In the average car, friction occurs between the moving parts of the engine and within the gearbox. This wastes about 15% of the fuel used by the vehicle, amounting to millions of tons of fossil fuel ...

The paper ball-like graphene particles stack into a porous scaffold to suppress filament growth of lithium metal that degrades the battery. Lithium metal-based batteries have the potential to turn the ...
Crumpled graphene balls self-disperse in oil to reduce friction and protect engines better than commercial lubricants. When an automobile's engine is improperly lubricated, it can be a major hit to ...
