A fleet of electric-powered school buses in El Cajon can send electricity back to California’s grid, thanks to first-of-its kind technology developed by a local company and a partnership with San ...

Many technologies rely on electric discharge phenomena, including consumer electronics, medical devices, and high-voltage power systems. During product development, it is highly beneficial to simulate ...

The desktop manufacturing revolution has been incredible, unleashing powerful technologies that once were strictly confined to industrial and institutional users. If you doubt that, just look at 3D ...

Fascinating new research from atmospheric scientists at Penn State University has found during thunderstorms, electrical discharges on tree leaves can generate significant volumes of chemicals that ...

Here at Hackaday, we thought we’d seen every method of making PCBs: CNC machining, masking and etching with a variety of chemicals, laser engraving, or even the crude but effective method of ...

This confirms that the Martian atmosphere can form highly oxidizing compounds, which could explain why the planet's surface seems so devoid of organic material, which it once featured in abundance.

A recent study has found that the electricity produced by an electric eel’s discharge is strong enough to cause the transfer of genetic material from the environment into the cells of nearby animals.
