Aviation’s huge carbon footprint could shrink significantly with electrification. To date, however, only small all-electric planes have gotten off the ground. Their electric motors generate hundreds of kilowatts of power. To electrify larger, heavier jets, such as commercial airliners, megawatt-scale motors are required. These would be propelled by hybrid or turbo-electric propulsion systems where an […]

Have you ever sat around and wondered how 2D materials expand? Me neither, but if you have, then a team of researchers may have solved the answer to the question. First, 2D materials consist of just a single layer of atoms that can be densely packed together, unlike conventional materials. The applications that can benefit […]

Earlier this month, we ran an article about the Formula Sun Grand Prix, a track race that also serves as the qualifier for the American Solar Challenge, an overland race for college solar car teams. One of the cool things about this year’s race is that they added classes for slightly more practical cars to […]
