Researchers developed a color-changing material that alters both surface texture and appearance in seconds, inspired by ...

German scientists have investigated the role of surface texturing in perovskite-silicon tandem cells and have found that several new processes offer the ability to etch smaller, more uniform textures ...

Enhancing the critical heat flux (CHF) of industrial boilers by surface texturing can lead to substantial energy savings and global reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, but fundamentally this ...

Irregularities present on a surface are often described as surface roughness or texture. These surface textures such as grooves and dimples impart friction, which is the force between two sliding ...

Reporting in ACS Applied Polymer Materials, researchers evaluated seven different textures made up of microscopic-sized cones to see which ones could repel sewage water the best. In sewage pipes, ...

Fresh research probes the relationship between the surface texture of food – which will influence its visual appearance – and expectations of how healthy that product is. Previous research has ...

Researchers from the University of South Africa have proposed a novel soiling mitigation approach for PV panels by placing non-working textured PV dummies in front of active PV modules. They used ...

Adopted by the CSDA and recommended by ACI Committee 310, ST-115 is a quantifiable standard that designates floors by a surface texture grade. Since the moment polished concrete was born, it was ...

Europe’s aviation regulator is initiating a research effort intended to address the risk of overruns caused by deficiencies in runway micro-texture, and explore the use of laser-scanning to establish ...
