A SYSTEM TO ALLOW AIR- AND GROUND-BASED ROBOT VEHICLES TO WORK TOGETHER
A system to allow air- and ground-based robot vehicles to work together, without GPS signals or expensive sensor devices, is being developed by a team at Yonsei University in Korea. This could be used by unmanned vehicle teams to explore environments, ranging from farms here on earth to the surfaces of other worlds.

SMART, ECOFRIENDLY NEW BATTERY TO SOLVE ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMS
Present-day lithium batteries are efficient but involve a range of resource and environmental problems. Using materials from alfalfa (lucerne seed) and pine resin and a clever recycling strategy, Uppsala researchers have now come up with a highly interesting alternative. Their study will be presented soon in the scientific journal ChemSusChem.

SIMULATION TECHNOLOGY DESIGNED FOR HOLLYWOOD CAN BE USED AS PREDICTIVE TOOL FOR UNDERSTANDING FUNDAMENTAL ENGINEERING
When one sends an email from Boston to Beijing, it travels through submarine optical cables that someone had to install at some point. The positioning of these cables can generate intriguing coiling patterns that can also cause problems if, for instance, they are tangled or kinked. The deployment of a rodlike structure onto a moving substrate is commonly found in a variety of engineering applications, from the fabrication of nanotube serpentines to the laying of submarine cables and pipelines, and engineers for years have been interested in predicting the mechanics of filamentary structures and the coiling process.
