A hands-on physics experiment demonstrates how a basic self-braking pulley works, explaining the forces and friction that allow it to stop itself without extra mechanisms. This millionaire finds out ...

Engineers reinvent the 5,000-year-old gear using fluids instead of solid teeth.

Scientists at New York University and NYU Shanghai have developed a new kind of gear that works without teeth or direct ...

US researchers have created a gear mechanism that uses fluids, rather than mechanical teeth, to generate rotation. They ...

Learning from an anomaly during the first BOLT-1A flight, the successful BOLT-1B follow-on flight experiment collected ...

Does the universe notice that we're paying attention to a quantum experiment? The answer goes against everything we thought we knew. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

Foams are everywhere: soap suds, shaving cream, whipped toppings and food emulsions like mayonnaise. For decades, scientists ...

New results from the MicroBooNE experiment rule out the existence of a sterile neutrino, reshaping how scientists think about long-standing neutrino anomalies. After many years of investigation, resea ...

Scientists have long believed that foam behaves like glass, with bubbles locked into place. New simulations reveal that bubbles never truly settle and instead keep moving through many possible ...

In this last part of our series on recently digitized books from the Wenner Collection, we are focusing on works that ...
