#Flood alert Dams that protect urban areas from flooding sometimes fail, resulting in catastrophic damage. But what can be done to prevent such disasters?
here are 48 sensors constantly telling us how this dam is feeling and how it behaving.
This technology makes this the smartest dam in the world. The underground sensors, developed within a European union research project, transmit measurements to data centres in several countries.
This device measures the amount of water in the dam and many other parameters such as the underground temperature,
and the movement of the sensors inside the dam. These indications can be followed in real time using any internet-enabled device.
or three times a year we got people viewing the asset the dam from a visual point of view.
if the dam fails, and even suggests the best ways to move citizens into safer areas.
which is located in the dam applearea of the neck, is now the fifth most common cancer diagnosed in women.
This platform is essentially a canal system with the main canal just 30 micrometres wide three times thinner than a human hair.
Several inflows and outflows lead to and from the canal at right angles. The platform was developed by Vogel s Phd student Dirk Steuerwald
Five inflows and outflows direct the current in the main canal and divide it into strictly separated segments:
and docks with the teats using a 3d camera and lasers. Another feature is a set of counter-rotating brushes that automatically clean the teats of dirt
Will atmospheric water extractors replace city reservoirs, dams, water towers, and our elaborate network of fire hydrants throughout every community?
They found that the molecules had very similar structures in the areas where serotonin docks.

The two robots communicate their positions converge to a common docking location and the dock successfully both indoors and out.
dams and barriers designed to defend the land from flooding. So far, the machine biggest wave reached just over 16.4 feet,
so they can go back to a charging dock (similar to a Roomba) when theye running low on energy. t like 3d printing upside down,
drinking water reservoirs, quarry lakes, irrigation canals, remediation and tailing ponds, and hydro electric dam reservoirs.
This simple and affordable alternative to ground-mounted systems is particularly suitable for water-intensive industries who cannot afford to waste either land or water.
and then dock with chemical receptors in another neuron to trigger a response. A'Smoking Gun'for Neurotransmitter Release In this latest research
has spurred changes to provincial environmental requirements for new mines with similar dams. Developed in collaboration between the ministries of environment and mines,
"On Aug 4, 2014, the massive dam storing tailings from the gold and copper mine gave way,
and reduce the risk of a dam failure. Potential risks The Environmental assessment Office will evaluate tailings management options
The investigation started weeks after the mine's tailings pond dam collapsed. The report concluded the construction of the mine's tailings dam foundation on a sloping glacial lake deposit amounted to loading a gun and pulling the trigger.
Energy and Mines Minister Bill Bennett immediately ordered inspectors to check on similar dam foundations throughout the province.
Mining in B c. There are 98 permitted tailings storage facilities at 60 B c. mines. A spokesperson for Imperial Metals was unavailable for comment.
president of the Mining Association of British columbia, said her industry knew the investigation into the dam's collapse would inevitably mean regulatory
Sisters collecting untreated water from a dam. Wateraid/Nyani Quarmyne. started off with proof of concept experiments in the lab where it the Drinkable Book showed a lot of promise.
If the number of zinc ions increases following transient severe brain damage, these ions dock in greater numbers onto a switch, the so-called metal-regulatory transcription factor 1 (MTF1.
Every once in a while, however, a pro-growth-hormone molecule docks at a receptor on the surface, setting off a cascade of biochemical events inside the cell."
and then dock with chemical receptors in another neuron to trigger a response. Arrayin this latest research, the scientists found that when the SNARES and synaptotagmin-1 join up
The researchers also compared energy levels in boutons--the docks from which neurotransmitters are shipped--with and without mitochondria.
If the number of zinc ions increases following transient severe brain damage, these ions dock in greater numbers onto a switch, the so-called metal-regulatory transcription factor 1 (MTF1.
It could allow satellites to more safely dock with each other, for example.""Conveniently all satellites and spacecraft are made of aluminum,
which are empty docks for traveling electrons. Because of its structure WTE2 only exhibits magnetoresistance when the magnetic field is applied in a certain direction This could be very useful in scanners where multiple WTE2 devices could be used to detect the position of magnetic fields Ali said.
The planned 8-week burst of water from Mexico's Morelos Dam on the Arizona-Mexico border was the culmination of years of diplomatic negotiations between the United states and Mexico and campaigning from scientists and conservation organizations.
This year's spring pulse held less than 1 percent of the volume of the Colorado's annual spring floods before the construction of ten major dams and diversions to municipalities, industry, and agriculture.
Habitat and eroded coastline are recovering at an astonishing pace only one year after the demolition of two dams freed the river,
Will you dare to cross a deep canal on a"printed"bridge? You may get a chance to try that soon.

It will come equipped with two smartphone charging docks and will work as a 3d visualization system, with applications available via App stores,

Holus comes in two versions-a Home edition with two smartphone charging docks, and a Pro version with an HDMI port and SDK tool so developers to use other devices with the Holus and come up with new uses for it.
The plan calls for virtually no new hydroelectric dams but does account for energy gains from improving the efficiency of existing dams.
The report lays out individual roadmaps for each state to achieve an 80 percent transition by 2030,

and creative ad campaigns are finding varying degrees of success. The state has cut deliveries of water to farmers through the state and federal aqueduct systems,
California gets 16 percent of its surface waterater that comes from snowpack, streams and riversrom the Colorado river via two huge aqueducts.
The California Aqueduct runs beneath mountains into Riverside County and eventually toward Los angeles, providing a substantial supply for both L a. and San diego. The All-American Canal moves water along the tail-end of the Colorado river near the Mexican border, nourishing one of the state's most valuable agriculture areas,
