Inside every living cell, proteins and membranes are in constant motion, reshaping, colliding, and flexing as they keep an ...

Cells have always hummed with activity. They make their own energy, package it into molecules like ATP, and spend it ...

Japanese scientists have created an electric gel that could revolutionize the future of electronics. The gel can be combined with highly flexible electrodes to create a wearable sensor that is capable ...

Researchers at TU Wien have discovered a quantum system where energy and mass move with perfect efficiency. In an ultracold ...

There is a lot of mechanical energy in human activities, but human activities are low frequency and irregular. Obviously, the traditional electromagnetic power generation mode cannot efficiently ...

How do skateboarders seemingly defy gravity? How do gymnasts flip in the air? They have skill — and, as a Times interactive explored, an understanding of the laws of motion, physics and energy. By ...

Every time you charge your phone or unplug an electric car, the battery’s internal parts subtly expand and contract. Over thousands of cycles, that motion adds up. According to new research, this ...

Engineering researchers have created a new way to harvest energy from human motion, using a film-like device that actually can be folded to create more power. The day of charging cellphones with ...
