or over edge of a wall, going that fast could mean crashes and injuries. So for some customers that operate in dangerous terrain,
it has strong hydrodynamic interactions with both the confining walls and any neighboring particles. These interactions,
As a particle approaches the wall, the perturbation it creates in the fluid is reflected back by the wall,
just as waves in a pool reflect from its wall. This reflection forces the particle to flip its orientation and move toward the center of the channel.
Slightly asymmetrical particles will overshoot the center and move toward the other wall, then come back toward the center again until they gradually achieve a straight path.
Very asymmetrical particles will approach the center without crossing it, but very slowly. But with just the right amount of asymmetry, a particle will move directly to the centerline in the shortest possible time. ow that we understand how the asymmetry plays a role,
#Drive-by heat mapping In 2007, Google unleashed a fleet of cars with roof-mounted cameras to provide street-level images of roads around the world.

aluminum oxide), producing hollow-tube alumina structures with walls ranging in thickness from 5 to 60 nanometers and tubes from 450 to 1, 380 nanometers in diameter.
They found that the alumina structures with a wall thickness of 50 nanometers and a tube diameter of about 1 micron shattered when compressed.
However, compressing lattices with a lower ratio of wall thickness to tube diameterhere the wall thickness was only 10 nanometersroduced a very different result."

The new turning algorithm also helped the rats to overcome more complicated obstacles in the form of rodent-sized staircases
Because the frequency modulation helped the rats to take larger steps those rats had a much easier time walking up the staircases.
They climbed the staircases successfully in 99 out of 100 attempts whereas the rats who used the old technology tumbled against

It s a maneuver reminiscent of climbing in and out of Nascar stock cars through the window:
Once we know what huts without roofs look like from a bird s-eye view we can run algorithms on photos to accelerate damage assessments.
Once assembled in the shop the walls are shipped flat by truck to the construction site.
which will hold the wall panels upright in the finished building. But it s not only the speed at which the walls are built that's helpful.
Jenkins explains that some buildings such as hospitals may need to reconfigure their interior panels quickly to make way for another patient with different needs.
Which is why DIRTT also offers modular walls that are flexible and can be interchanged like toy blocks.

As Ramos mimes punching through a wall, the robot does the same. When the robot fist hits the wall, Ramos feels a jolt at his waist.
By reflex, he leans back against the jolt, causing the robot to rock back, effectively balancing the robot against the force of its punch.
while the robot may successfully punch through a wall, it would also fall headlong into that wall.
The interface allows a human to remotely feel the robot shifting weight, and quickly adjust the robot balance by shifting his own weight.

'Astronauts would ascent to 12 miles (20km) by electrical elevator.''From the top of the tower, space planes will launch in a single stage to orbit,
'While other designs for space elevators have involved complex designs using graphene or carbon nanotubes, the Thoth design reportedly uses inflatable sections
